  1. Octigabay IS Linux!! on Cray CTO: Linux clusters don't play in HPC · · Score: 1

    Octigabay bay was recently purchased by Cray. That is how they are able to produce their new XD1 which is an opteron based linux cluster at an affordable price point.

  2. Time to drag the sig out. on Morpheus Infiltrates Other P2P Networks · · Score: 1

    ahem.

  3. iama.com.my on Niue WiFi Network Gone, .nu TLD May Follow · · Score: 1

    is still available to any malaysian slashdotters...

  4. fresh clean... on 14 Industrial Embedded Linux Case Studies · · Score: 1

    embedded linen...nothing like clean sheets.

  5. REAL laser printers... on Color Printing Without the Inkjet Mess? · · Score: 2, Funny

    How about a real laser printer that works by lightly browning the paper but without setting it on fire. No refills ever...I want one. How about it science?

  6. Not at liberty? on Interview With Chris McKillop of QNX · · Score: 1

    I just have to poke at this hornet nest statement from the article...

    "...Beyond that, I'm not at liberty to say..."

    Not at liberty eh? Sounds like you need some free software. >:^}

  7. Slogans... on Design Slashdot's New T-Shirt and Win Cool Stuff! · · Score: 1
    I'm in Canada so meh...

    FIRST POST!
    (ask questions later)

    stand back...
    I think I'm gonna post.

  8. WineHQ on More Cheap Linux PCs · · Score: 1

    it includes the WineHQ software for the running of the Windows on Intel Systems? *smirk*

  9. suing for damages. on SARS Researcher Files Preemptive Patent Application · · Score: 1
    It's probably been said but does that mean I can sue whoever owns the patents for damages and suffering if I become infected? Can the families of those who died sue for wrongful death from the patent owners property?

  10. Ode to Microsoft on HTML Rendering Crashes IE · · Score: 1

    your browser is crappy
    due to an error in shlwapi.

    when I browse the tag "input"
    Exploder goes kaput.

  11. Re:Google.ca redirect. on Honeymoon Over For Google? · · Score: 1

    Complaining on slashdot is a good thing. Thanks for the tip about the google link at the bottom of the google.ca page to take me to google.com(which then becomes the new default when I type google.com) I am going to mutter angrily to myself for a bit and then begrudgingly admit google is still the best *grumblegrumble....*

  12. Google.ca redirect. on Honeymoon Over For Google? · · Score: 1

    Those of us here in Canada have fairly recently been introduced to a delightful(not) little redirect feature which sends us to google.ca when we type Google.com. NOTE TO GOOGLE: If I wanted to go Google.ca I would type Google.ca. Get your f****** javascripting paws off my browser. Actually I'm not sure what the actual mechanism is but in a way I don't care. The fact that they are doing this dismays me enough to avoid them and try alltheweb or yahoo or even(dare I say) msn. They are still the best but the fact that they have me wanting to abandon ship does not bode well for them.

  13. Re:oh yeah, this is my big fear... on Clothes Make the Network · · Score: 1

    I was wandering around a mall here in Victoria, B.C. the other day when I saw an obviously dishevelled and homeless looking guy working away on some kind of PDA. When we start to see truly inexpensive, robust, powerful systems then I think we'll start to see the emergence of wired urban nomads. Sign me up.

  14. Re:Fear on Purchase Your Personal Gene Map · · Score: 1

    Isn't the absolute worst case scenario of your argument that a telemarketer might call one day who had so much knowledge about you(DNA, psychological profile, buying habits, etc.) that they might actually offer something to you that you would actually WANT/NEED and wouldn't be able to resist buying(because it was generally useful or whatever) Bwahaha, the evils of targeted marketing! "What how did you know I was looking for a diamond heart pendant with platinum engraving for my wife's birthday...oh well, $19.95 sure I guess I'll take it. You're going to send me a free information booklet on a new FDA approved nutritional protocol that works against prostate cancer *blush* uh..uh o.k. I'll read it over and then get back to you..."

  15. Re:Anybody want to venture a guess on Purchase Your Personal Gene Map · · Score: 1

    don't you mean venter a guess?
