  1. Worthless article on Beware the Perils of Caffeine Withdrawal · · Score: 1

    So the whole point of this article is to let me know that I will get a headache if I don't get my daily fix of caffeine? It doesn't take a genius to figure that out....

    Seriously... mods....

  2. I don't doubt it on University Bans wi-fi as Health Concern · · Score: 1

    I'm not surprised that there are health problems. I used to setup a lot of wifi networks for my job, and I could "feel" the presence of wifi when I was close to a router. One time while plugging in an airport I got a sudden headache. I turned the router off and immediately the headache was gone. It's kinda scary.

  3. Re:It will happen, but not for a long time..... on Hollywood Looks to BitTorrent for Distribution · · Score: 1


    Seems like the entertainment industry's one hand doesn't know what the other is doing.

    I'm not sure you see the point. Of course they're shutting down illegal torrent hubs. It's all part of one plan: legal distribution of their product.

  4. Re:question on Linux Application Development · · Score: 1

    I disagree. There is only so much you can get from a man page. A good book allows you to gain an understanding of the subject based on the perspective that it is written in. For instance, "PHP For The Enterprise" is going to go in a much different direction than "PHP For Dummies".

    Also, a man page is never going to give you thorough enough examples. Most people learn much better by example than technical jargon. No man page is going to be able to provide enough examples to gain any true understanding of the subject.

  5. mirror on Build Your Own MP3 Player · · Score: 2, Informative

  6. Re:I Think You're Mistaken on Sprint Close to Buying Nextel · · Score: 1

    Sprint hasn't charged for ESN swaps for at least the last year.

  7. $0.35 it is.... on PayPal Settles Class Action Lawsuit · · Score: 3, Funny

    I'm so ready to receive my check for $0.35US

    Well now that you put it on /. it WILL be $0.35! THANKS.

  8. Locked? on Samsung Linux-Powered Smartphone Ships In China · · Score: 0

    I wonder if these are locked to only work with unicom. I'd kill to use this with Sprint.

  9. Re:best buy warranty on Finding Holiday Discounts on iPods? · · Score: 1

    Is this still the case? I buy quite a bit of open-box items at Best Buy and have never heard this.

  10. Re:Hmmm, is it that complicated on Recommend Apple, Lose Your Job? · · Score: 1

    I can think of no technical reasone you couldn't do the same with iMacs..

    Well, the older iMacs don't have fans, so they get pretty darn hot. Ever touched the top of one of them? I've had a couple of iMac hard drives fail on me, likely because of the increased heat.

    That being said, OS X does handle the load just fine :).

  11. lol... on Building the Ultimate Silent PC · · Score: 1

    I actually did this a month or so ago... bought a few feet of dynamat and wrapped everything in it. Barely made a difference ::sigh::

  12. this isn't the first time that's happened on GameToo Much...... And Die! · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Last year someone died after playing too much Counter-Strike.

    Here's the article.

  13. Oh come on... on Is Red Hat the Microsoft of Linux? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Gimme a break! Redhat is competing primary against MICROSOFT, not other linux vendors. They're doing what they're doing for the best of the linux and open source communities. If we have division b/n these communities, then it's only going to hurt ourselves.

  14. what about claris emailer? on The America Online Protocol Revealed · · Score: 1

    What I don't understand is how Claris Emailer (an Mac Classic app that can fetch AOL email) continues to work even when AOL changed the token. There must be another way to connect to AOL....

  15. Re:Why bother build your own? on Howto Build your own Rack Cabinet · · Score: 1

    That'd be a great deal if it were a 19in rack. That won't hold computer equipment.

  16. Doh! on IBM DeskStar 75GXP Hard Drive Failures? · · Score: 1

    My first one died just a couple days after I got it, I guess I should of taken the hint and swapped it for a barracuda. We'll see though... no trouble yet after a couple months usage....

  17. Ooh, you're right. That is nasty on Huge security hole in Internet Explorer for MacOS · · Score: 1

    I'm guessing they did this b/c most things that are hqx'ed are also sit'ed underneath. I understand the reasoning, but man, that is a terrible security hole.

  18. waste of time on Mac Rants · · Score: 1

    That certainly was a waste of time. Let's keep the topics informative at the least. Don't let the trolls get what they want.

  19. Michael Jackson on Review: Planet of the Apes · · Score: 1

    Anybody else think the girl monkey looks a little bit too much like Michael Jackson?!
