  1. Oh Great on Alaskan Cyclotron - Not in My Backyard! · · Score: 1

    Now everyone will have one if this guy succeeds. I can hear my wife now, "The Jones just got a new cyclotron." How can a guy keep up.

  2. Re:further marginalization on IT Workers Worst Dressed Employees · · Score: 1

    But the thing isn't what you wear, it's the I don't give a shit what other people think attitude. It's not being conformist, it's showing that you actually care about how other people preceive you. If you are not willing to put on a shirt that requires you to do up a couple of buttons then how are you going to react when I do a code review.

    Well ok maybe not that great of a feat, but it's a start.

  7. It's only ready for the desktop on Best Configuration for Linux Gaming? · · Score: 1

    Not as a gaming console. Get your priorities right we are only trying to change the OS other people use for silly things like work.

    I guess someone forgot to check his pulse. The list is a bit too focused on modern heros and very few of those with the shoulder on which we stand. Very sad that geeks have such a little appreciation for our history.

  10. Re:Using SharpDevelop for about a week on Free Ebook on C# Programming · · Score: 1

    In my experience a gig makes a big difference. My current work environment I am also running IIS and a full suite of Rational tools and my machine plugs along fine. At half a gig that setup is very slow and can only run VS decently when nothing else is loaded up.

  11. Re:I think I've solved it. on New Vulnerability Affects All Browsers · · Score: 1

    That would also break a number of corporate portals. Say bye bye to firefox on the corporate desktop.

  15. Re:Math time! on SCO Puts a Cap on its Legal Expenses · · Score: 1

    Considering that the last time this was posted here 2 months ago they had spent 7.1 mil and now it is 12 mil that is about 5 mil in two months. I give them 6 months tops, but then again I am an optimist.

    It must be her.

  17. If you are going to challenge then on Google Launches Desktop Search Tool · · Score: 1

    it's more effective if you kick their ass on their own turf. Search outlook better than outlook can, find that word doc faster than the OS can even with fast find enabled, give the ablility to search IE history which IE doesn't have. Brilliant.

  19. Re:Interesting quote from the article on The Web's 20 Worst Security Flaws · · Score: 1

    Nice try, but IIS 6 is not effected by this exploit. The article you liked to said that you require IIS 5 5. or 6 to install, but if you read on the exploit a bit more you would of found out that IIS is not effected. Also the exploit is based on a simplistic securtiy model based on checking the URL. Any real application does explicit check in the code of each page that needs to be secured not some general check of a url.

  20. Any site that requires tight security on Microsoft Issues Ominous ASP.Net Security Warning · · Score: 1

    doesn't or shouldn't use the url security. Every .net site I have worked on does explicit check on each page that needs to limit access. Also there is a fix for the problem, it is call windows 2003.

    To date no security exposures have been identified in IIS 6.0

    You can design a better front end as long as you share. But of course this complant doesn't have anything to do with your firs point. What is so hard for you to understand about the GPL.
