  1. <meta content="Refresh".... on Declaring The Death of Metatags · · Score: 0

    This meta tag can still be quite useful as a quick and easy way to redirect from one page to another without having to do any scripting.

  2. Re:search results on Google Letting Users Rank Search Results · · Score: 0

    How about you shut the fuck up.

  3. search results on Google Letting Users Rank Search Results · · Score: 0

    Is this going to change the results of a search query at all? Or just merely show the rating next to each link within the results?

  4. Re:weaknesses? on Ask Ed Felten About Watermarking Analysis And More · · Score: 0

    Why is it all the morons who post on here won't take credit for their posts? I made a simple mistake, but obviously I can admit to it and take credit for my post by not posting anonymously. Grow up people!!

    Assuming you can disclose this information....what were some of the weaknesses?

  7. disappointment? on Linux-Based Audiophile CD Archival System · · Score: 0

    My disappointment with the quality of compressed digital music formats...

    If you are so disappointed then why don't you create a better compression algorithm for digital music. I doubt it is exactly easy.

  8. how much? on Intel Cites Breakthrough In Transistor Design · · Score: 0

    And just how much is this going to cost the average consumer? Anytime a new processor comes out it is overpriced and it takes at least 6 months to a year before the price becomes reasonable.

  9. Thinkpad 760xl on Rolling Your Own Laptop? · · Score: 0

    Heh...I've had no trouble getting even Debian to work on my IBM Thinkpad 760XL. Sounds to me like
    meches just hasn't put enough effort into getting
    a laptop to work the way he/she wants it to.

  10. continue? on Linux 2.2.20 is Out · · Score: -1

    So are they continuing to work on the 2.2 tree now? Or are they stopping with 2.2.20 and concentrating now on 2.4 and 2.5?

  11. Re:In the meantime... on NASA Releases Classic Software To Public Domain · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Taco had a huge post that this was going to happen.

  12. millions of years on NASA Releases Classic Software To Public Domain · · Score: 0


    For millions (thousands) of years we have strived to find out why we are here and what the meaning of life is, etc, etc. And we find that we are all written in FORTRAN. God's little prank. :)

    Modding down -- The art of deciding what really pisses people off and what just gets on their nerves.

  13. Re:Let me get this straight... on NASA Releases Classic Software To Public Domain · · Score: -1, Troll

    Lighten up...life does go on....and not everyone is in on this war so their lives haven't changed.

    And for God's sake get laid.

  14. How many? on Windows XP Has Arrived · · Score: 0

    I'm just curious how many security holes are going to exploited by hackers and crackers in Windows XP....they sure found enough in the earlier versions of windows to fill their time.

    Maybe it's time we help all of the lamers using Windows in on the secret that befuddles them about linux....you know....intelligence.

  16. Re:woody almost done? on Progeny Debian Is No More · · Score: 1

    That's odd...I was told by someone I work with who manages about 9 packages for debian that woody was frozen now and it should become stable soon.

  17. Re:woody almost done? on Progeny Debian Is No More · · Score: 1, Informative

    Woody has been frozen for a while now...it'll probably be released as stable quite soon.

  18. fingers... on AMD Athlon MP 1800+ Processor Review · · Score: 2, Funny


    Well at least I can still count on my fingers how many GHz we have achieved. I suppose when/if these quantum-based computers come about (on a large scale), I'll have to have an infinite number of fingers all representing the possible states of the processer :)

  19. Re:Ashley Judd - Please clarify on Ask Wil Wheaton Anything · · Score: -1, Offtopic


    Funny how it's always the Anonymous Cowards who post comments like this.

    Start taking credit for what you post so we can word-bash you like the rest. ;)

  20. Star Trek Voyager on Ask Wil Wheaton Anything · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I've always wanted to know whether or not Wil was even asked to do an episode of Star Trek Voyager. That series could have used a good episode about the Traveler and Wesley. I would think the idea could have popped up in some writers' heads.
