  1. Re:I suspect on Internet Only 1% Porn · · Score: 5, Funny

    We must take this threat to internet porn seriously and ACT before it's to late. According to these statistics internet porn will be down to 0% in just a couple of years. Save the porn before it goes extinct!

    Unfair. The NK's only have one cybercafe whereas SKs have 1 per 10 inhabitants :p

  3. Re:What do you mean, "suitable for Linux"? on Sun Open Sources Java Under GPL · · Score: 1

    You cant catch em all. I suppose Sun in their blissful ignorance choosed to NOT support "stuff like implementing java as a stored proc language" under linux/alpha. Tomorrow I'm organising my LUG and we'll cause havoc until this thing is straightened out!

    You shouldnt be able to edit a previously written comment. I'd agree to a revision history where you still can see all original comments though. Or a "appending changes" feature. But never to remove. Diggs way of doing it (for instance) sucks, you can basiclly troll by writing something and then change it in the 300 seconds window you get.

  6. Re:Can I on Ubuntu 6.10 is Out · · Score: 4, Interesting

    A small success story;

    The company that I hire my office from has been running redhat for ages, they're getting problems installing their in-house software to the newer versions of redhat because they are using cups instead of the older lp/lpr/lprng systems. Knowing this I started synaptic (the ubuntu package manager), searched for LPRNG with one of the senior guys behind my shoulder. Choosed to install LPRNG, synaptic automaticlly disabled cups and change the appropriate settings. 15 minutes later we were printing useing their sed-scripts from the 80's again.

    I think I can safely say that I singlehanded arranged for a bunch of new ubuntu installs with that 20 minutes of my time.

  7. Re:Can I on Ubuntu 6.10 is Out · · Score: 4, Informative

    Also the documentation recommends running sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
    Thats because if the first command fails you shouldnt run the second for whatever reason.

    Ubuntu is the next best thing since sliced bread, and everyone should atleast try it out. I upgraded my 5.10 (no idea how I managed to install that) the other day to 6.06 this way - it went without a hickup. I love ubuntu :P

  14. Re:Screen dumps inadmissable? on First Swede Convicted For File-Sharing Now Cleared · · Score: 4, Interesting

    It would be funny, it's just that the morons at the swedish "anti piracy bureu" tried just this. They even FAXED the screenshosts - because we ALL know that faxed documents are digital and thus exact copies of everything sacred and holy.

    Courts do not have the technical expertise to understand how pathetic and stupid it is to use a screenshot of a common program running as a evidence in a trial that changes the outcome of millions of people. I can accept you get a fine for it, but this was a legal matter which carried a conviction. Not anywhere near where you want evidence like that.

    Best part is, they "trusted" the evidence since it came from such a renomed organization, namely the people paid of by the entertainment industry to throw their own customers in jail. Not exactly a outfit I'd enjoy taking care of my savings..

  15. Re:I've never heard of this site on Swedish Video Site Trouncing YouTube · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's very true. I'm also swedish and actually I too run a website in sweden producing clips. The examples in this article are figures that are easily beaten. The thing is, anyone can count xx,xxx impressions on a videoclip today. The hard thing is doing it in total. What would be interesting is if Bubblare.se had more swedish traffic that youtube in TOTAL which they definatly not have.

    They might have more traffic for a specific clip, but then again, bubblare.se might have tops 10,000 clips whereas youtube probably has x100

  19. QBASIC.EXE??! on Why Johnny Can't Code · · Score: 1

    I dont get it. QBASIC.EXE is readily available from a local website near you. Last time I coded QBasic was 2004 for shits and giggles at Birdie 13 Uppsala/Sweden.

    This entire article is just pure whining. Getting a C64 because of that? Whats the point? I just dont get it. If you want to code in basic that is hardly a problem. That people choose to not do that and use a fancy GUI or just learn how to code HTML instead I can understand since thats what "IT-people" do today.

    Top of the line quad boxes comes for 10 grand .. add hosting.. say 1k / year in total per server.. = every server needs 66 accounts to make it financiable viable over the span of a year. I wouldn't say thats very expensive.

    No. The real cost is probably those support, service and designers blizzard are paying salaries too. I'm not saying 15 is expensive at all.
