  1. Re:Why does an ATM need XP? on Diebold ATMs hit by Nachi Worm · · Score: 1

    Why does an ATM need XP? ... We're talking about a dumb terminal here, aren't we?

    Well if it's a dumb terminal, doesn't it only make sense that it should be running Windows XP?

  2. Re:Down already... on All-in-Wonder 9600 Pro Review · · Score: 1

    I haven't read the article (but hey, who does?), but after reading your post I felt like I should give it another hit. Unfortunately it loaded. . . so I refreshed it.

  3. Re:Maybe Just Qualify the Name on Universities Dispute with Red Hat over 'Fedora' · · Score: 1

    How about. . . Redora?

    Ok. I've got nothing.

  4. Re:IPv6 on AMD Predicts End of 32-bit Processors · · Score: 1

    Looks like your ensuing flame war isn't going as well as expected..

    Anyway, maybe all 64bit PCs should be forced to ship with only IPv6 and ban IPv4 from being installed on 64bit computers. While this may slow down the adoption of 64bit computers it will definitely speed up the adoption of IPv6 by having it fully in place by the year 2038 :)

  5. Another article to add to the corral on SCO News Roundup · · Score: 2, Informative

    SCO Targets Major Linux User
    The SCO Group Inc. said Tuesday it would sue a major user of Linux within 90 days, as the company prepared to launch a new legal assault in its claims that the open-source operating system contains the computer maker's copyrighted code.

  6. Re:Linux needs this like Tux needs aftershave on Gateway Forges Partnership With SuSE · · Score: 1

    This is an absolutely no way off-topic. The mods are smoking the cheap $3 crack again. This post is highly insightful, and tastefully written, to boot.

    . . . and has nothing to do with the original news post.

  7. Re:Mr Lyons reports what.... on Forbes Examines SCO Subpoenas · · Score: 1

    The CEO and Vice-President did not know what their lawyers were up to!? Well I guess it is a clue to who is running the show.

    And to think that people actually invest money into these guys.

  8. Re:oh god on SCO Fires back, Subpoenas Stallman, Torvalds et al · · Score: 1

    Yes, but would it be worse than watching the last episode of Seinfeld?

  9. Re:Meanwhile In Court... on Belkin Routers Route Users to Censorware Ad · · Score: 1

    Ah. I assumed it was a Pepsi product because around here (Saskatchewan, Canada) it's only distributed with Pepsi products (as far as I've seen).

  10. Re:Meanwhile In Court... on Belkin Routers Route Users to Censorware Ad · · Score: 1

    Your analogy is flawed. You can't get Pepsi products at McDonald's.

  11. Re:There already exists a spoof of Matrix on Feature-Length Matrix Spoof to be Released Soon · · Score: 4, Funny

    They're called Matrix reloaded and Matrix revolutions.

    Yeah, but they were done pretty poorly, even for fan-made movies. I wonder if we'll get some real sequels.

  12. Re:for Real? on Feature-Length Matrix Spoof to be Released Soon · · Score: 1

    No.. no it wasn't. But thanx for pointing that out :)

  13. Re:for Real? on Feature-Length Matrix Spoof to be Released Soon · · Score: 1

    The connection is that they end in ix.

  14. Re:AAC is nice and all... on McDonald's Billion-Song iTunes Giveaway · · Score: 1

    What's an inaudible sound? Is it like an intangible presence, or an insufferable git?

    Actually, it's a sound that is outside the frequency range that humans can hear (around 20-20,000Hz). You can feel the bass below 20Hz but you can't hear it (where you==average human). And dogs can hear sounds greater than 20,000Hz :)

  15. Re:SCO warning on Vietnam Going Open Source · · Score: 0, Troll

    I'd rather fight tooth and nail and become dirt poor then sit back and become American

  16. Re:Reminds me of Rush Hour on Columnist Threatens to Sue Blogger · · Score: 1

    So then what you're trying to say is it's okay for stalkers to call eachother stalkers but it's not okay for asians to call them stalkers? Ahh.. it makes perfect sense now.

    Yes, that's correct.
    The average mass of Hydrogen is 1.008 amu

    I tried posting the source of this information, but slashdot's retarded lameness filter wanted me to use fewer 'junk' characters.

  19. Nuclear Reactors on Happy Birthday, Atom · · Score: 0, Redundant

    And now we can make small nuclear reactors.

  20. Re:This is a little much on Microsoft Antitrust Compliance Questioned · · Score: 1

    I know, this is ridiculous. Shouldn't SCO be suing somebody?

  21. Freenet on VeriSign CEO on Commercializing the Internet · · Score: 1

    Hell, just use freenet.

  22. Re:Fuck. on VeriSign CEO on Commercializing the Internet · · Score: 1

    I bet that technology would be ten times more advanced today if people contributed to it solely to make it better and not to make a profit from it.

    It's called communism, and it doesn't work (unfortunately), for the reason you stated in your previous sentence: people are driven by money and greed and this causes the system to break down.. into capitalism.

  23. *ahem* Bullshit on CNet on WinFS · · Score: 1

    "Today, applications encapsulate data. In the future, applications will be able to read and write data created with multiple applications," Muglia said. "Information opens up dramatically."

    *ahem* Bullshit. Unless you're trying to open a Microsoft document with a Microsoft application I'm thinking you're gonna have a lot of trouble. And of course when he said "applications encapsulate data" he was obviously only referring to Windows applications.

  24. Re:Mandrake Torrent Links on Slashback: Forbes, VoIP, Firefly · · Score: 1

    Check out the experimental client. It's a modified version of the official client that's lets you set the max upload speed on the fly. As of right now it's based off of 3.2.1b, not 3.3, but it works fine for me.
