  1. Re:where am i? on Google To Gain a Rival? · · Score: 1

    Here's a hint: you don't need to switch. You can use both.

  2. Re:lilo? on Linux 2.4.7 Released · · Score: 1

    No, you see when GRUB encounters an NT filesystem it overwrites it with copies of the GPL license, then install HURD on it. Very interesting problem, but we are working on it.

  3. Welcome on 'Free Sklyarov' Protests Scheduled · · Score: 1

    to the United States of Attorneys,
    the land of the free*

    * if you are a lawyer

  4. Re:Sounds alot like BeOS on DeMuDi Linux · · Score: 1

    Since BeOS is practically dead, I think this is a lot better, heh.
    Sad to see Be fight for its life instead of developing more cool techonology.
    I hope they open source it before they go under...

  5. Re:Hypocrisy on Animation and SFX with Linux · · Score: 3

    These are niche applications, those who would use them rarely have the skills to develop them and vice versa.
    This is vwhere closed source prevails.

  6. BSD developers on $1.2M DARPA Contract for FreeBSD Security · · Score: 3

    We've seen quite a few of them listed in the blurb, but my favorite one is still Matt Dillon.
    What a multi-talented guy.

  7. Time on Aussie Bill Would Ban Hacking Tools, Virus Code · · Score: 2

    to move to China ?

    China is the land of the free except when you get executed so they can sell your organs.

  8. Re:Many ways to block ads on Public Outcry Over Popup Ads · · Score: 2

    I read somewhere that Tom Christiansen (anal retentive sociopath) only looks at the world wide web by telnetting to port 80 on target servers. That's the ideal way to block all the heathen non-perl content: look at the source of the cgi scripts directly.

  9. Agreed on VA Linux Systems Leaving The Hardware Business · · Score: 3

    They should definately concentrate on their core business, which is buying websites to raise awareness which in turn helps them to raise more VC which helps them to buy more websites...and so forth.

  10. Re:And Bill Gates is like Monopoly on Bill Gates Says GPL Is Like Pac-Man · · Score: 1

    Whoa, if it's bold, it's suddenly insightful.
    Is the moderation system about contents or HTML skills ?

  11. Re:KISS principle. on Gnome Hackers Sorting Out Differences RE:2.0 · · Score: 2

    Yeah, it sucks when I need just one application (in my case konsole) but it starts all kind of error prone shit I don't need. Konsole is a very useful application but it is deeply tied to the KDE object management which results in all kinds of bugs and problems and prevents me to easily convert it to a stand-alone app.

    Anyway, I use pwm now, which solves the many-xterms-in-one-window need for me, but I dread the day when again I will need just one tiny bit of a DE and I need tons of resources to run it.

  12. The solution might be on Cheaters Sometimes Prosper · · Score: 2

    the referee system introduced in the Q3 mod Urban Terror. The server admins usually don't give a shit about the game, but they can give referee rights to anyone, who have only access to limited number of commands like voting, kicking, etc.

  13. My question on Ask Dan Kusnetzky About Linux Server Counts · · Score: 1


    Were you ever wrong in your analysis ?

    Did you admit it ?

  14. Resolutions on LCD Display Questions - Longevity and Monochrome? · · Score: 1

    Can LCD-s change resolutions ?
    And if not, why ?
    thx

  15. Re:FPS in LCD? on LCD Display Questions - Longevity and Monochrome? · · Score: 1

    The eye only sees one small detail at once and shifts to another one approximately 70 times a second. I guess that's why the ergonomic frequency barrier in monitor refresh rates is usually 72Hz.

  16. It might be a good idea on Thomson's Vision: Smart Cards For Everything · · Score: 1

    to stack up on those 'rogue' PC devices, they will increase their worth in a world controlled by those greedy corps.

  17. Oooh! on Just For Fun · · Score: 1

    The reviewer is the-guy-without-a-real-name (tm).
    I wonder if his driving licence has also only chromatic in it.

  18. Usually... on Four Companies Get Half Your Clicks · · Score: 1

    I use yahoo for testing internet connections and browsers so there.

  19. Re:Fast Ethernet? on World's Fastest Macintosh Cluster · · Score: 1

    You'd get more bandwidth but the latency would stay the same, so no real improvement.
