  1. Re:My keynote thoughts so far... on Mac Pro, Mac OS X Virtual Desktops Announced at WWDC · · Score: 0

    You can change the key combo for dashboard + exposé. Make it shift-apple-f9 or something like that if it gets in the way.

  2. Flip Floppers? on RIAA: Ripping CDs to iPod not 'Fair Use' · · Score: 0
    From Boingboing.net:
    For those who may not remember, here's what Don Verrilli said to the Supreme Court last year:
    "The record companies, my clients, have said, for some time now, and it's been on their website for some time now, that it's perfectly lawful to take a CD that you've purchased, upload it onto your computer, put it onto your iPod."
    So which is it?
  3. Re:Big Brother and the iTunes Company on iTunes is Malware? · · Score: 0

    Click on the "Just for You" seciton, it tells you why it's recommending certain music: "You bought X,We recommend Y"...

  4. Re:aperture.... on Apple Unveils New Pro Products · · Score: 0

    Their website explained to me exactly what it does... did you watch the videos? It's a RAW workflow, library and post-production application. It's not a photoshop competitor by any means, besides color correction. Pretty spanky if you ask me.

  5. Safari notes an Unsafe JavaScript attempt on Major Browsers Have JS Pop-Up Flaw · · Score: 0

    When I run the test, I get this in my JS Log: Unsafe JavaScript attempt to access frame with URL http://www.google.com/ from frame with URL http://www.google.com.secunia.com/tests/origin_spo of.php. Domains must match.

  6. Sandbox? what sandbox? on Malicious Web Pages Can Install Dashboard Widgets · · Score: -1

    I just made widget that ran "rm -R ~/filename" and it deleted a file named "filename" in my home directory... where's the frickin' sandbox? change that to remove your whole home folder and advertise it as a porno widget you've got bad news. I'm disappointed in Apple's lack of security on this... where's the sandbox that people were talking about?

  7. CopyPaste on Phishers Using Keystroke Loggers · · Score: 1, Funny

    I'll just start coping and pasting all my u/p. So there.

  8. Try pixar.com on Disney to Make Toy Story 3 Without Pixar · · Score: 0

    Most of their shorts are there.

  9. It's a shame... on Halo 2 Available on the Net · · Score: 0

    Bungie is one of those companies that I love and they deserve every penny they get from my purchase. They are passionate about what they do and have a great community. But what with the internets and all, it's bound to happen.

  10. Nothing new on Mac OS X Trojan Horse Infects MP3s · · Score: 0

    You can write an applescript or any other app to do malicious things, then paste a new icon on it and change the extension. It's been done before. There was a Simpsons one floating around Hotline a couple years ago that would delete files when you launched it.

  11. Re:Down with the American dogs! on Why iPod Can't Save Apple · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    But worst of all is the use of vice girls to torment the most religiously devout detainees. Prisoners who have never seen an "unveiled" woman before are forced to watch as the hookers touch their own naked bodies. One said an American girl had smeared menstrual blood across his face in an act of humiliation!
    And of course you have proof of this?
  12. More Importantly... on Microsoft FAT Licensing Plan - No Big Deal? · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    MERRY XMAS!!!!

  13. Riding is MORE work than flying a jet.... on Heads-Up Displays for Motorcyclists · · Score: 0

    I've read an article in which a fighter pilot says he has to work harder riding the bike than flying the jet. Makes sense to me. In the sky you have 3 dimensions of travel to escape anything in your way. On a bike you have on 2 dimensions. Plus there's a lot less going on in the sky at most times than when riding (except for maybe a dog fight or SAM attack :) Anytime I ride I can't think about anything else other than riding. Cagers not paying attention, potholes, wet leaves, animals, and a myriad of other things always have my 100% attention. I think this would be only a moderate help to motorcyclists, as I doubt only a smal percentage accidents have been caused by someone looking down at the speedo.

  14. AOL will block your legit emails. on Spamholes Fighting Spammers · · Score: 0

    I'm currently having troubles getting legit emails through to AOL customers. From what I've read in their SPAM rules, if your domain has an open relay, they will block your email. So if you set this up on your domain, you might hurt yourself more than the spammers.

  15. Re:Yeah... on Another Worm Targets Anti-Spam Sites · · Score: 0

    Well when your grandma gets an email labeled "hi" I doubt she's thinking it's gonna be pron.

  16. Re:Whats so bad about this? on Man Arrested for 'Spam Rage' · · Score: 0

    > They intruded into his home and refused to leave his > personal property alone. Can they put them up on charges of Electronic Tresspassing?

  17. I just saw it an hour ago.... on Captured! By Robots - A Musical/Mechanical Marvel? · · Score: 0

    Really funny, I just got back in from seeing it... amazing. It looks like he uses a MacOS X rig for some things, as I saw a the QT Player/dock after a movie ended. He can improv and everythign with his setup. It looks like some of it is running off of air-power, had 5 bots there, and his crazy guitar/keyboard thang, looks complicated, I hear it takes him forever to set up. He performed the "10 commandments" show, with a video playing on the wall and each robot was a character. It was mostly metal, but with some other music types like ska and rap thrown in. Very funny and entertaining, I'd definitely go see it again. He said his next show was a "work-out" one - so bring your shorts.

  18. Ahhh... on Microsoft Looks At Other Search Engines · · Score: 2, Funny

    "Innovation" through assimilation.

  19. Re:Bold! on 200hp/V6/G3 600MHz "iCar" · · Score: 0

    Beemer is a motorcycle. A Bimmer is the car. Its a saab anyway. I know, I 'm a term-Nazi.

  20. Ouch on Microsoft Virtual PC 2004 Removes Linux Support · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Damn you MS!

  21. Won't the list make telemarketing MORE effective? on U.S. Court Blocks Anti-Telemarketing List · · Score: 1

    If your list of telephone numbers was cleansed of people who are definitely not going to buy your goods, isn't that going to make your business more effective?

  22. Re:can Mac use a 3-button mouse? on PC Mag Compares G5 to Xeon · · Score: 1

    Of course it can, pretty much any USB mouse will work. I have 4/5 button Kensington on mine.

  23. God that music in the Apple movie is gay.... on Pods Unite · · Score: 0, Troll

    'nuff said.

  24. Why did they need the Black Box? on Black Box in Speeder's Car Helped Conviction · · Score: 1

    He admitted to going twice the limit in a residential zone. Why did they feel that it was necessary to pull the box and get the data from it?
