  3. Re:Imagine a beo......!!!! on Sony Announces Version 1.0 Of Linux for Playstation 2 · · Score: 1

    Is there a dos emulator that dosen't require the x86 platform? I bet this would make a *sweet* "old games" box -- 40 gigs could hold alot of sierra / lucas arts titles :)

  4. Re:Where are the killer apps? on Palm Releases New Wireless Handheld · · Score: 1

    Yeah but you know those "millions who swear by it" just want it to talk to their internet girlfriends/boyfriends :)

  6. Re:Australian Cousumers: 0, Video Rental Business: on Australia Rules DVD's are Films, Not Software · · Score: 2, Funny

    VHS's are less susceptable to *people fucking with you* as well :-) Ive rented videos before and had them not be what was printed on the casette ... once someone taped over the movie I rented ... I dont know what exactly was on it, but it was a midget in a bathtub that was on sleds, sledding in a huge drainge ditch, he ate shit about halfway down the slope :) Of course that was way more entertaining then the crap my g/f had picked out for the evening ...

  7. This isn't really new ... on Control Digital Audio With Turntables · · Score: 3, Informative
    Heres directions on how to build your own with a turntable and a mouse ... Although rightfully the professional one has better features ...

    I have to take issue with one thing in the harmony central article ... it says the records contain a time code. What do you do when you break these special records? ...

  8. Re:Windows needs a clean break on Security Community Reacts to Microsoft Announcement · · Score: 3, Interesting

    What if all this security talk is ... Preperation for building a DRM (digital rights management) OS? The insecurities of the current MS OS's is what makes a DRM os impossible ... Right now I get around alot of DRM stuff with my 10 channel sound card ( m-audio delta 1010), by routing sounds out the digital outs and sending a copy to its internal mixer ... then I can record the mixer (digitally) :) ... of course Im a true pirate, mostly I use this technique to save (real player) NPR broadcasts for my father :) But I think that wont be possible soon

  9. My spidey sense is tingling on California's "Wireless-Free" Zone · · Score: 1

    What is funnier was, he claims that being exposed to dental x-rays caused the problem?

    I think by all medical logic, the x-rays would have fused him with any animal around and endowed him with the abilities of that animal... alla spiderman :)

    Unless the only animal around was a "self important prick" because he seems to have been endowed with the super-powers of that species.

    Seriously, this guy clearly has a problem, a psychosomatic illness.

  10. old news! on New Sampling Techniques Make Up For Lost Data · · Score: 1

    I tried a similar technique on a Statistics paper I had to write, and got an F for plagarism!

  11. Re:TNN is bad? on Star Trek TNG DVDs · · Score: 1
    TNN compresess the image by about 5 - 10% to make room for an annoying bar that says something to the effect of, "TNN, home of star trek" ... sometimes it has announcements, and often it tells what shows are coming up next.

    It dosen't make the shows unwatchable, but it is just enough that you notice that *something* is wrong. It has the effect of making Troy's ass just *that* much fater

  12. College students wont buy it on I Want My MTV... PC? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    About 18 or 19 (college age) is about when even the dullest of college students are able to think for himself and develop his own tastes, instead of liking whatever is put infront of them...

    I say this, because, I don't know *any* college students (and I know alot being employed by a university) who watch MTV, infact I would say that most despise it. These are the same college students who were "sticking it to the man" on napster... MTV *is* the man.

    Oh and guess what, college students are chronically poor by definition.

  13. Re:Anyone remember how cool Borland used to be? on Borland Kylix/JBuilder License Reviewed · · Score: 5, Informative

  14. Re:Speaking of Banking on Dave Barry Does Windows · · Score: 0
    As a programmer myself -- I can tell you, programmers *want* to write software for systems they are familliar with. They are just as stubborn as anyone else, and they don't want to learn new things especially when they can be accomplished with tools they know...

    Granted this can lead to poor decisions :) ... However for something as non-critical as a kiosk, who cares, and besides, commodity OS's and hardware make for cheap devices :)

  15. Re:Not murder, but not business either... on Digital Music's 2001 Winners and Losers · · Score: 0

    Hillary Rosen and Osama Bin Laden, may have different motives and different goals, but they are both afraid of the same thing: freedom, change, and the future.

  16. Re:More details needed. on Handling Discrimination in the IT Workplace? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    He could have interned ... I knew a guy who was a network engineer for 3 years at earthlink before he came to college at the age of 18 ... I would like to know, if the gentlemen lives on the west coast or the east cost? I've noticed that the east cost tends towards discriminating against the *young*, whereas on the west coast (read: california) companies don't want to hire anyone *older*.
