  2. Re:Library on Putting Google to the Test · · Score: 0

    Yeah, getting up and turning the computer on, waiting for the dial-up to establish connection to the ISP, opening up a browser... well, that should take a fair amount of time.

  3. Re:A list on First Ten Programs on New Install? · · Score: 0

    I suggest you try Programmer's Notepad. Especially the 2.0 ones. Bloody fast and very good syntax highlighting.

    is one living implementation of the aforementioned WORN File System. And it doesn't require any disks at all.

    all the attractive women on there are "in a relationship"

    Yeah, so that they could keep themselves off buggers like you.
  6. Re:SocNets we'd like to see on Google Social Network: Orkut · · Score: 0
    Id rather see a fuckSter where you are only connected to people with whom you've had sex with. That'd be the most useful least likely to have the real data site ever..
    Yeah, wait till they bug you with "I'm pregnant with your baby" messages several times a day.
  7. Re:googoogaga on Google Social Network: Orkut · · Score: 0

    Since gspot.com, g-spot.com and googlespot.com are taken, they'd have no choice but to use google-spot.com instead.

    or spot.google.com

    From his website, there are more:
    I have been told that I have a colorful personality and perhaps that is why my friends have given me more nicknames than I can remember. O-Man, Big-O, Orc, Yogi, Ivy's Bitch (if you were not there, never mind), Party Animal, OrCute, Orkuttino, Kooter, O, Dostum, and Smooth are some of the ones that I recall at the first hand. As you can probably guess, each nickname has its own saga to go with it. However, for those who are not familiar with the stories, "Orkut" works fine.
    Pick one.

    Quoting great-grandparent:
    Solid state just seems the intelligent choice to go with in devices subject to any kind of rapid motion (or sudden stops!). The word "elegant" is a good one.
    Flash memory is a solid-state storage mechanism (no motors)

    ...case of the worst with an option to shut down one of the drives when the battery gets low.
    I guess that defeats the whole point of RAID-1, no?

    A lot of old mum/dad user's are still using AOL3, with IE3/4 who cant display XHTML

    XHTML can be written to work with older browsers, including IE3 and 4. XHTML 1.1 Transitional even allows the usage of deprecated tags, namely FONT. And XHTML discourages bad HTML coding styles. Browsers spend too much time tolerating bad HTML.
  13. Re:Not a good release to review. on FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE Reviewed · · Score: -1, Troll
    FreeBSD still has a text based install that would scare away any normal user and anybody with an MSCE.

    It doesn't matter. As long as it's straightforward and easily understood, I think those winblows users'll get it up fine.

  14. Re:No wonder there are such abuses on Can You Sue Over Loss of Personal Information? · · Score: 0

    McGuyver restored a charred-black burned paper to "readable" state.

    Pardon me, your honour, I didn't steal that car. I forgot to ask the owner I borrowed it, and that I intend to return it shortly after.


    Please. She'd rather have her application rejected. Proof of submission is not proof of receipt.

    The press release will be cached in memory, rendering it useless as a benchmark.

    The IPv4 was invented more than 20-30 years ago. I have doubts that they had a 32-bit processor operating as servers and routers back then.

    It's not a serious vulnerability, but it sure is a very embarassing one :)
    I turn off ActiveX and Java on IE here and still, it manages to crash. This is serious.

  23. Remarked processors. on Intel Patents Anti-Overclocking Technology · · Score: 0

    Intel didn't get serious into implementing multiplier-locking scheme until irresponsible OEMs sell remarked systems. (300MHz Celeron sold as a 466, for example) I think this anger them a bit.

    If you want to change that, just edit the /etc/issue and /etc/issue.net files.

    But we gotta be more serious than that.
