  1. Ummmm on Gentoo Linux 2004.0 Released · · Score: 2

    Gentoo 2004.0 has NOT been released yet, despite what this article says. People, just because the 2004.0 folder exists in the mirrors' archives, does NOT mean that all of a sudden the new version magically appears in the tree.

  2. Snakes on Indiana Jones To Arrive Again in 2005 · · Score: 1

    Why did it have to be snakes?!?

  3. Too bad on U.S. National Do-Not-Call Registry On the Way? · · Score: 5, Funny

    I knew I shouldn't have spent $40 buying that damn Telezapper

  4. Are they crazy? on Pop-up Ads Coming to A TV Near You · · Score: 1
    Don't they realize the majority of people who know a lot about new products, services, etc. are the ones who are watching their favorite programming and also looking at the commercials that are played inbetween!

    Sure, some people take this time to go grab a beer or maybe some pretzels, but that sure as hell doesn't take the full 2minutes and 30seconds of advertising time.

    I'm going to stop watching tv all together if they put these ads on the bottom of my screen. Just my 2 cents.

  5. Re:2 Programs to solve the problem on Will Instant Messaging Ever Unite? · · Score: 1

    No, I meant to say 2 problems. If you are using a Mac, then you have problems of your own which makes me feel sorry for you... not really.

  6. 2 Programs to solve the problem on Will Instant Messaging Ever Unite? · · Score: 1
    Windows: Trillian
    Linux: GAIM

    Enough said.

  7. Oh No! on How Will WorldCom/UUNet Impact The Internet? · · Score: 1

    All I know is that if the internet goes down in a flaming ball of fire, I'm sure as hell going to be pissed if I can't get my sublimedirectory.com!

  8. Tutor on Options for Adults with Renewed Interest in Math? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Why not just get a tutor? It would definitely be less expensive than actually going to school again. Also, you get the 1 on 1 atmosphere which is usually the best. I think anyone who actually 'wants' to take math is crazy, but whatever floats your boat

  9. No way! on Moby Says Techie Fans = Fewer Sales · · Score: 1

    When an artist's new music comes out, I check out a few songs by searching the 'net for some mp3's. If I like what I hear, then 9/10 times I buy the CD from a legitimate retailer (Thanks for the low prices Best Buy!). BUT, most of the time, the CD as a whole is CRAP. One or two songs that are good is not worth me dishing out $10-$17 for the CD

  10. Take Charge on P2P Programs on K-12 Networks? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    This is obviously a problem that lies in every school district and also in college. Just take charge and let the teachers know (in a non-technical and informative way) the reasons that you want to block these specific P2P networks from being accessed. If you set a standard, people will conform

  11. Re:Well.. on Downsides to the C++ STL? · · Score: 1
    This is where copy constructors come in handy.


    string foo = string();


    Always use the default copy constructor for a data type if you want to set it to a null or default value.


    Note: also works like this


    int a = int();

    char b = char();

    bool c = bool();


    etc. etc. etc.

  12. not a very logical idea on e-Denounce · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Think about it. If a person even is able to find warez that is downloadable (as opposed to fake warez sites that simply advertise porn) then this person is on a mission NOT to stop warez from being available, but rather to download that warez for his/her own purposes. I highly doubt that after this very long pursuit for warez will give the user the need to say "I don't want this incredibly hard to find site to be up anymore! No more warez for me!" I mean, seriously folks

  13. yeah, pretty impressive on Cray's New Solid State Storage · · Score: 0

    pretty impressive considering i can't even access their site .....

  14. $395 ??? on Rubber Band Machine Gun · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Please .. are you kidding me? I've seen things like these at flea markets for $10

  15. ConTEXT on Java IDEs? · · Score: 1
    Hi, this is my first post here, and I'd like to make it a worthwile one. I have used the program called ConTEXT on my Win2000 box and it is AWESOME!

    It does syntax highlighting, macros, and LOTS MORE! You can use it in conjunction with Borland C++ compiler and it shows errors and line numbers with errors. It is quite an amazing program and I highly recommend it!!!!
