  1. I love the software, but... on Is "Marketingspeak" Killing Technology? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Firefox - Rediscover the web.
    Thunderbird - Reclaim your inbox.

    Is it me or are these weak slogans?

  2. Re:Worse? on Is "Marketingspeak" Killing Technology? · · Score: 1

    Wanadoo - Positive generation...

    What the f*ck has an internet provider to do with the positivity of any generation?!

  3. Re:more choice is good on KDE Gets Gecko/Mozilla Support · · Score: 2, Interesting

    "Mozilla still has many outstanding UI bugs that I and others have reported years ago that haven't been squashed."

    Could you please be more specific?

  5. Hashing problem: on Hydan: Steganography in Executables · · Score: 2, Insightful

    OK, you place the hash in the executable; the file is changed. Now the hash should be different...

    Problem.

  6. Re:Double Standards? on Microsoft Admits Japanese Monopoly Battle Hurting Image · · Score: 1

    Could you please stop nagging.

    You're making me feel bad.

  7. But, please be careful: on Unix To Beef Up Longhorn · · Score: 1

    First make sure there are proper drivers for your hardware before partitioning your harddrive for Windows.

  8. Re:Patented Taskbar Grouping? on Microsoft Patents Grouped Taskbar Buttons · · Score: -1, Troll

    Apparently it is.

    Which makes me wonder... is this comment a troll?

  9. Re:Firefox doesn't know it's been upgraded on Firefox 0.9.1 and Thunderbird 0.7.1 Released · · Score: 1

    Oops... Time for 0.9.1.1 I guess?

  10. Re:Adjusting my tinfoil hat on Firefox 0.9.1 and Thunderbird 0.7.1 Released · · Score: 1

    Funny how the 1.0 will be named 'phoenix'. Just to confuse some people?

  11. screenshot of the new theme on Firefox 0.9.1 and Thunderbird 0.7.1 Released · · Score: 3, Interesting

    So we know what we are talking about without having to download firefox:

  12. tab-wrapping extension on Firefox 0.9.1 and Thunderbird 0.7.1 Released · · Score: 1

    I swear I've seen an extension for that.

    Congratulations if you find it.

  13. How about... on DNS Inventor Predicts Future of the Internet · · Score: 2, Interesting

    "Searching and finding people are certainly the two areas that still need to develop further, according to Dr Mockapetris, and replacing numbers with web addresses will help that, he says."

    Everybody has a little key-holder with a fingerprint reader. Just let somebody push his finger to add him to your contacts. Furter information about the person is stored online.

  14. mc on The Latest And Greatest Console Applications? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Midnight Commander...

    When doing some rough copying stuff or space-cleaning. I intuitively remembered the commands from 'Norton Commander' from many years ago.

  15. Re:Show me the code! (er, documentation) on Minix from Scratch Project Established · · Score: 1

    I like slashdot becoming an arbitrary-not-so-important-news site.

    But they should add a 'important-news-only' option which takes away the minor version updates and stuff like that. For linux-updates I have a little linuxtoday.org thingy at the bottom of the page added.

  16. Re:Swaret on Slackware 10-RC1 Released · · Score: 1

    This is where I am supposed to tell you to RTFM.

    There is a lot of documentation on the website.

    In the /etc/swaret.conf set VERSION=current to get the latest and greatest. If you just want security-fixes then set it to the version number you want.

    If ~/slackware-current/ is forked to ~/slackware-10.0/ on the FTPs then you can set VERSION=10.0 in swaret.conf.

  17. Re:KDE on Slackware 10-RC1 Released · · Score: 1

    I can come up with only one reason to support your statement; xdm is not started at boot on default.

    It's a matter of changing one numer in /etc/inittab to turn it on.

  18. Swaret on Slackware 10-RC1 Released · · Score: 4, Informative

    I swaret my way to the newest versions. (swaret.org)

    It's nice to have an up-to-date installation-CD though.

    I just searched the archives because I remembered something about it.

    The Win32.exe torrent is going very slow. (1.8 kb/s)

    Upload at 0.0 kb/s.

    What's the use if nobody 's using it?

  22. Re:Surprise on KernelTrap Interviews Andrea Arcangeli · · Score: 1

    If he sues every linux user for using his code he would not have to live with his parents.

  23. Re:Honesty of responders on 2nd Multi-Format 128kbps Public Listening Test · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That is not lamer-proof.

    One could just send in forms with the same ratings to manipulate the test arbitrary.

  24. Side effect on Anti-HIV Virus Developed · · Score: 1

    The downside is that it eats the rest of your body also.

    You are both wrong.

    The images are resized; that is the problem.
