  1. Re:I'll vouch for that on EBay Letting Fraud Slide? · · Score: 2

    LOL!

  2. Re:I lose $1000 per month because of ebay fraud. on EBay Letting Fraud Slide? · · Score: 5, Informative

    Strangely, Microsoft gets their software taken down from illegal eBay auctions. Maybe you need to find yourself a good lawyer.

    You have his address -- solve this the old-fashioned way: go kick his fucking ass and cut off his balls.

    Maybe that's a little overkill.

  6. Microsoft on Open Source Requirements Management Systems? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Microsoft Project + Sharepoint server for the collaboration. Oh, you want an open source (read: free) solution? Looks like you're shit out of luck, not even SourceForge is free.

  7. Emacs on Designing Computer Animation Software? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Doesn't Emacs already have this functionality built-in?

  8. Rough Outline on Designing Computer Animation Software? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Step 1: Create Sourceforge account.
    Step 2: Place project into "Planning" phase.
    Step 3: Wait 3 months.
    Step 4: Purchase 3D Studio Max using the money you've been saving for 3 months.

  9. Re:your .sig on The Rise and Fall of the Geek · · Score: 2

    If you really must know, the sole purpose of my sig is to elicit responses such as yours. Apparently my little social experiment has worked. :D

  10. Re:Because the patch has been out for ALMOST 2 YEA on Bugbear Windows Virus Making the Rounds · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Why don't you go suck on an inherently huge cock? No wonder you're on my foes list, god damn you're an asshole. Someone tries to inject the first bit of rational thought that I've seen into this totally redundant useless thread, and you try and bring it down. Why don't you pull your unixish head out of your ass and get a clue?

  11. Re:Why is anyone running outlook anymore? on Bugbear Windows Virus Making the Rounds · · Score: 2

    Sorry, Mozilla developers are busy working on skinning and other worthless features (read: ChatZilla). They might want to work on an integrated spell checker first. I'll stick with Outlook XP, thanks.

  12. Re:Why is anyone running outlook anymore? on Bugbear Windows Virus Making the Rounds · · Score: 2

    I don't see a regular user editing the registry. Unless you edit a key in the registry, you are not allowed to view executable (exe, bat, com, vbs, shs, etc) attachments. Period. It doesn't allow you access, unless you edit the registry. Want to send an executable? Tell the sender to ZIP it.

    Well according to this-here ad on Slashdot, we should be running Microsoft Small Business Server!

  16. Re:Why not get a real PC? on No-Solder Modchip For The Xbox · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Because "we are ripping off Micro$haft!!!! LOLOL!!!"

    The hilarious part about all that is that the XBox is now in profitability, and Microsoft isn't taking a cut anymore.

  17. Re:Um, yeah on MS Reveals Big-Name Xbox Games · · Score: 1, Troll

    Really? Then how come when the argument is "Linux is utter shit" the response is almost unanimously "You have the source, fix it yourself"? Seems like a double standard to me.

    Yes, you could have done a much better job by yourself. Thanks for your insight and wit.

  19. Re:I'll be the first to say it... on UCSB Bans Windows NT/2000 in the Dorms · · Score: 2

    Considering installing a server configuration of either OS is intended for capable server admins, perhaps MS figured warnings were unjustified. However it's nice that Mandrake went that extra mile to allow at least SOME hardening of the OS with a click of a button at install time and warnings of the consequences--and wise too considering their OS is free and accessible to a wide audience.


    Could that be because Linux ships desktop and server versions on the same CD, and with Windows, there is a distince difference?

    Just patent patenting.

  21. Re:It _IS_ a security/bandwidth problem on UCSB Bans Windows NT/2000 in the Dorms · · Score: 1

    I suppose we should ban Linux and Unixes as well as it _is_ possible (albeit difficult) to set a null root password.

  22. Re:I'll be the first to say it... on UCSB Bans Windows NT/2000 in the Dorms · · Score: 2

    That's not good thinking. Joe User installing Linux would most likely install Apache, wu-ftpd (which is swiss cheese), sendmail (good for spammers) and all sorts of other goodies.

    OTOH, Win2k Professional does NOT install IIS by default. In fact, you don't really get many choices during setup... you have to go in after the fact and install it additionally off the CD.

  23. Re:So what's the problem? on UC Irvine Cracks Down on P2P · · Score: 3, Insightful

    My school used to do this (not anymore, but its bound to be back). The packetshaping was done by user IP address -- when you surpassed a 24-hour limit, you started to have packet loss to the Internet (not campus servers).

    The statistic about 10% of the users using 90% of the bandwidth is correct. It's not fair to everyone else.

    We're talking about Pine, not Ximian Evolution... please understand the context of the conversation before going off like a lit match.

  25. Re:GCC is mediocre on Itanium Problems · · Score: 2

    Perhaps. But I don't expect them to give as much information to make GCC >= icc. That would be self-defeating from Intel's viewpoint.
