  1. Re:Agony of choices on Starz, RealNetworks Offer Movie Download Service · · Score: 1

    I agree entirely. I was over joyed when I found MediaPlayerClassic which could play Real files without have real Real player installed :)

  2. Re:Almost perfect on Web Logs Finally Meet Sim City · · Score: 1
    Shouldn't those be Canyoneros with /. on top? Not only would they drop off passengers, they'd get involved in nocking down the buildings and running over the corpses and other vehicles as well.

    Don't forget starting unexplained fires, but I guess that's a matter for the courts...

  3. Re:Locate foot. Aim. FIRE! on Microsoft Changes Tune Again On SP2 Installs · · Score: 1

    Not quite. They may save money on the initial downloads, but once a virus hits, many "legal" copies will have to be reinstalled causing more bandwidth use on the windows update servers.

    But if the EU chose to limit software patents, would they still honor the US's ubiquitous software patents?

  8. Good Idea on Free MIT Engineering Text For Download · · Score: 3, Interesting

    This is a very good idea; it would be nice not to have to pay $500+ a semester for books. I am concerned that if this catches on, that a company would find a way to profit from the online books, bringing the college students back into the same situation that they're currently in, which is paying out the ass for basicly renting books for a semester (assuming the college has a book buy back program).

    Another thing, will schools then start supplying laptops or tablet PC's to view these text books on while in class?

    I said EFFICIENTLY

  10. DirectX Emulation on "Missing Link" In Windows Emulation Unveiled? · · Score: 1

    thats all and good, but I won't even consider switching my desktop to a Linux OS until David or something like it can emulate DirectX efficiently.

  11. Re:They need to do this on SCO Aims For The Feds · · Score: 4, Funny

    On a related note, SCO filed a lawsuit today against the former pop king Michael Jackson; SCO claims that Michael Jackson used parts of there unix source code when he create many of his popular songs, including "Bad" and "Beat it".

  12. Re:Protocol faster than DSL? on BIC-TCP 6,000 Times Quicker Than DSL · · Score: 1
    What is BIC trying to fix? It certainly isn't "the internet" as most links, on average, run at a fraction of their available bandwidth. TCP can fill up more bandwidth than most people can aford.


    Your not looking at the big picture, sure right now most connections are not limited by TCP/IP. But what about in 5 years? 10 years? 20? If the average connection speed is indeed doubling every year, how long do you think it will take for most users to hit the TCP/IP "Wall"?

  13. what the internet needs... on Cooking with the Internet? · · Score: 1

    No no no, what the internet really needs is more free porn, and none of that fake link crap; I want instant access to sick and twisted porn to fulfill my most malicious of desires...and I don't want to have to give my credit card or even email address to get it.

  14. Re:Great... on Girls in the Gaming World · · Score: 1

    Speaking as a male gamer, I agree with this poster in saying that women women should take part in the same tournament as the men. There is no logical reason to support seperate tournaments for women and men; I for one would welcome the additional competition.

  16. typo on TiVo Buys Super Secret Strangeberry · · Score: 1
    The SEC-Filings show that it has something to do with delivering broadbandservices to televission.

    Looks like the editor missed a couple of typo's in the sentence. Televission should be television and Broadbandservices should be broadband services.

    ...and in a related story, video proof of the existence of yeti's was found today by a camera carrying pigeon. Sources say that the owner of the pigeon was tipped off that there may be a yeti in the area due to the eaves dropping tiger dung that he had accidently dropped in the area.

  25. Re:The Issue on Cash Value 1/10 of a Cent · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I believe that privacy is neither property or a privilege, but a right. Like many rights, it does have its limits. In the US, you have the right to free speech, but, if your free speech infringes on someone elses same right, then your right is then taken away.

    And criminals are a horrible example of "it's not like property." We violate oodes of a prisoner's rights--that's how we penalize folk who break the law.

    So true, the criminals gave up there privacy rights when they commited a crime. A sexual malester lost his rights the minute he commited a perverted act, because his right to privacy would infringe on others rights to safety.
