  1. Wow on Artificial Inteligence Common Sense Database · · Score: 1

    Weird, I remember reading a Harry Harrisson (sp?) book that had an application or database named Cyc as well. Can't remember the name, though.

  2. Re:Auto Generation for Consistancy on Calling All Dungeon Masters · · Score: 1

    You *are* aware of the set_time_limit() function, right?

  3. Re:Hrm on Open Source... Mining? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Pfft :P
    At least when a Linux bug is spotted, it gets shot on the spot, and doesnt get exploited for months until MS releases a patch/service pack.

    But enough flamewars.

  4. Hrm on Open Source... Mining? · · Score: 1

    I guess that just shows that Open Source > *

  6. Great on MS Buys (Some) SGI Patents · · Score: 1

    MSFT: "Oooh, we're just buying the patents to increase competition in the software market. Monopoly? what's that?.."

    Bleah..

  7. Heheh on Intel Northwood CPU Review · · Score: 1

    "It overclocks like a hog..."
    LOL, I've never seen an overclocked animal :)

    Why the SPAM icon?
    WTF do satellites have to do with spam?

    ... then show your appreciation for all their hard work and dedication ...

  10. Great game on Uplink · · Score: 1

    After playing the game for about 13 hours straight, I can say it's probably the best game I've ever played -- and I'm a pretty heavy gamer.
    It does have a few glitches (mostly spelling errors and animation quirks), but overall it's extremely fun and has a great re-play value.

    Just my $0.02.

  11. Re:See, Unix has problems too now. on Solaris, AIX Login Hole · · Score: 1

    Yep. From the bugtraq advisory by ISS:
    "Secure Shell (SSH) implements encrypted terminal connections, and it is designed to replace insecure protocols like Telnet and Rlogin. Recent versions of SSH implement their own version of the login program, and are not vulnerable. "

  12. Blah on Philips Improves Electronic Paper · · Score: 1

    Slashdot: news for nerds, stuff that repeats itself.

  13. Re:Huh? on War Driving With The Kids · · Score: 1

    I have no idea where the name "War Driving" came from, though.

    I assume it's derived from "War Dialing" -- dialing phone numbers sequentially in search for a modem tone, practiced by phreaks in the 70's and 80's.

  14. Of course! on QuickTime To Move To MPEG-4 · · Score: 4, Funny

    "That could mean quicktime for Linux, but would we need it?"...

    Sure, except the fact that the World Wide Web Consortium already exists.

  18. Yeah, sure... on Loki Goes Postal · · Score: 2, Funny

    It's great and all, but why is there a "Five Star Adult Dating - Amour - Sexy Chat" banner on that page?

    Hrm..

    ...discussed many, many times on Bugtraq.

    Elias Levy already summed it all up:
    "Well, the world chances. I am not so stubborn to think I will always be right or will never change my opinion on this matter. A little reality check every once in a while is good. It also allows some of the newer members of the list to understand the philosophy behind the list. Now we stop flogging a dead horse and take you back to our regular programming." http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/203625
