  1. Re:What can we do next? on Caching Torrent files in DNS · · Score: 1

    Sorry. I just wanted to think of the two kludgiest, least efficient and least secure protols I could, and combine them. I said what I said because I didn't think MSN Messenger via Windows ICS was practical.

    Also coming soon:

    Freenet over DHCP;

    Gnutella over BOOTP;

    And last, but not least, KaZaa over WINS!!! :)

  3. Re:Well, DUH! Pirated==free!! -- Not Really on Game Piracy Results in Lower Prices? · · Score: 1
    Right, but I'm not in China. :)

    Of course, I am also way out of touch since I've not pirated any software since, maybe, Doom2. Which I've since bought. If I'm poor and fixin' for a new game I just hit happypenguin, and that tides me over for that week.

    Seriously, though, I prefer to support companies financially when they write a good game for an OS I like. Companies like that should be encouraged.

  7. Re:And yet: on IBM Releases Desktop Linux Presentation · · Score: 1
    I'm actually running Linux on a Thinkpad right now! Of course, it's a 350C (48625Mhz), and it's minimalist Slackware 9.1, but everything but the broken 9600 baud modem works. I use PCMCIA for ethernet. Of course with my DSL it's wierd to download faster that I can write to the 215MB hard drive, but it's great for writing Perl.

    Say, anyone got a spare battery for one of these?

  8. What were you thinking!?! on Ask Red Hat CEO Matthew Szulik · · Score: 0

    I mean, really? I mean, Windows on the desktop?!?! that's almost as crazy as Windows on a server! I use Redhat on the desktop every day, and it's all I need.

  15. Hot damn on Linux 2.6.0-test9 Released · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I can't wait. I just hope RedHat 10 includes a 2.6 kernel, so I don't have to bother compiling it myself. I'd love to take advantage of the performance improvements, and I'd also like to use SATA drives in my new server.

  16. Re:What should it's present be? on Happy Birthday, Atom · · Score: 1
    It wasn't my kitten! Well, it was, but from a previous game. I had died, leaving it abandoned. I had no choice but to let it go feral.

    Of course, it's probably still in level 12, waiting for me. . .
