  1. Re:telnet? on Microsoft XP License Prohibits VNC · · Score: 1

    a combination of the two! :)

  2. Re:lesson learned - use GPL on The Sad Parable of OS/2 · · Score: 1

    It didn't fail. IBM still sells OS/2 for the princely sum of $284.00 USD.
    Nobody buys it you say?
    Then how do Diebold use it on their old, and new ATM's? Because they buy copies of it. From IBM. (although they do get a discount of some sort, my guess is) They make a lot of ATM's, worldwide.
    GPL something that still makes them money? What a good idea..

  3. Re:OS/2 isnt dead...is IS windows on The Sad Parable of OS/2 · · Score: 1

    proof? This is slashdot! We don't need no stinking proof!

  4. Re:Windows 95 Killed OS/2 on The Sad Parable of OS/2 · · Score: 1

    Considering the cheap-ass audience, I'd guess the fact that it is cheap-to-free?

  5. Re:OS/2 Still In Use.. . on The Sad Parable of OS/2 · · Score: 1

    Must be one of the only remaining type of ATM with NT (3.51 i think you will find)
    All the newer ATM's I've worked on (and these are all brand new out of the factory) have been OS/2.
    Never had a problem (except the machine that took 30 minutes to boot up!)
    What brand of ATM are they there?

  6. Re:So no cygwin then? on Microsoft XP License Prohibits VNC · · Score: 1

    Seems like the case.. unless.. "All your cygwin are belong to Microsoft."?

  7. Re:VNC is just a side effect ... on Microsoft XP License Prohibits VNC · · Score: 1

    It claimed to be a remote administration tool to compete with MS's Back Office

    Back Office was a remote admin tool????

  8. Re:Hi on Microsoft XP License Prohibits VNC · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    PS2 is better! Muwah!

  9. Re:This is for "Citrix like" applications. on Microsoft XP License Prohibits VNC · · Score: 1

    Perhaps they were referring to Citrix Metaframe type setups, not VNC.

    VNC doesn't magically transform a single user Windows machine into a multiuser machine.

    I didn't see VNC mentioned anywhere in the EULA.
    Citrix however, does this nicely.

    ssh!
    you'll give away the secrets!

  11. Does anyone really care? on Microsoft XP License Prohibits VNC · · Score: 1

    I mean, like who really is going to obey and quit using VNC? Maybe those same people who download vast amounts of pirated music? movies? software? Oh yes, maybe they will get rid of VNC.. they wouldn't want to run it on their pirated copy of XP now, would they?

  12. Re:Your Mother? on CRT Eavesdropping: Optical Tempest · · Score: 1

    Ehek! Ehek! The least you can do is post without being an AC, fuckwit.

  13. Re:Sunlight? on CRT Eavesdropping: Optical Tempest · · Score: 1

    Sounds like you ripped of this comment. Wouldn't you agree?

    Mod this guy down as redundant :)

    no shit sherlock, did i fucking write it in the first place? cockhead.

  15. Re:will this work? on First 3D Simulations of Complete Nuclear Detonations · · Score: 1

    The nuclear attacks shocked an exceptionally stubborn and prideful country into surrendering, almost certainly reducing loss of life on both sides.

    Exceptionally stubborn and prideful??
    Sounds much like most americans I've met.

  16. Re:Careful though... on Announcing Slashdot Subscriptions · · Score: 1

    perhaps you should make a package for less ads. I mean if you are not getting full sales, you may as well create a package for like 1000 exposures at a cheaper rate.
    Sounds sane to me

  17. Re:open your eyes on College Students Are Buying More, Warez-ing Less · · Score: 1

    and see the ugly ads? yipeee!

  18. Re:Wow, plagIArizing my post to the letter. on RIPE NCC Responds to ICANN CEO's Proposal · · Score: 2, Funny

    In fact, tosser, you will realise that I did not write the subject! It is a reply, and the subject is intact, as all good replies should be. Have a nice troll.

  19. Re:Exactly, If foreign companys want an address on U.S. Cybersquatting Law Goes Global · · Score: 1

    That USED to be the way it works. No longer though. Joe Bloggs Canuck can now buy anything.ca, IIRC. Either that or he can buy joebloggscanuck.ca

    I noticed this, but alas, I am not a mod!

  21. Re:Outside the US. on ElcomSoft Lawyer Says Internet Outside U.S. Law · · Score: 1

    The fact that the DMCA is a bad law doesn't make ElcomSoft's argument good.
    Excuse me, but did anyone make that claim?

    What the hell are you talking about?!
    This is slashdot! Nobody reads the article before posting comments they think are on-topic!!

    You sir, are a fool. I expect you have several large weapons and live in the middle of Hicksville. Either that, or you are around 11 years old.
