  1. Re:Web pages on Java Performance Tuning, 2nd Ed. · · Score: 1

    Users may not care, as long as it does the job. A manager however must see / hear a few buzzwords or the product is automatically crap and uninteresting.

  2. Re:Can I Give her Diamond Token Ring? on Diamonds As Room-Temperature Superconductors · · Score: 1

    Beware of the spontanious spawning of child processes :)

  3. Hummm on What Would You Put Into A Software Survival Kit? · · Score: 1

    ...porn, one 100 MB file can fit between those utilities, right?

  4. Re:Deathmatch, the profession on Deathmatch for Dollars? · · Score: 1

    By adding ghostcams to the game these professional games could even be televised and make more profit by selling the TV rights... like they do with other sports.

  5. Humm on Texas Rep Wants To Jail File Traders · · Score: 1

    Either he doesn't know his own kids do it too, or he doesn't have them. Or he actually pays the huge prices for the CD's for his kids...

  6. Re:Moore's ??? on Understanding Moore's Law · · Score: 1

    Why not call it 'Something Moore said about processors' that would also clearify it for non-techies.

  7. Re:Text mode start up screens - Alien! on BIOS' Days Are Numbered · · Score: 1

    When it is possible to show something at booting in 16 million colours it will only be a matter of a few days before someone creates a patch so that we can all boot with porn images so we can start the day right :)

  8. Re:oh my! (girls) on U of Wyoming Fingerprinting All P2P Traffic · · Score: 1

    Since no one has come forward to sacrefice themself, I will look at the porn tapes to verify the copyright, just enclose some cleanex with it ok?

  9. To illustrate on Why VHS Was Better Than Betamax · · Score: 2, Funny

    This article was to illustrate that VHS was very good for making copies, hence the duplicate news.

  10. Re:Code 431.322.12 of the Internet Privacy Act on P2P File Sharing Could Cost You A Bundle · · Score: 1

    Also I wonder if it's possible to intersect and analyze any IRC/SSL (IRC over SSH) traffic? Yes, it's called Carnivore and Echelon.

  11. Teleporting on Produce Organs...From Printer · · Score: 1

    Next we build us a scanner (a large knife that slices us up and examines every cell) then we can scan ouself into the computer... email yourself to your favorite holiday country and print yourself out! Shall I fax you a sandwitch? :)

  12. Re:beyond the jokes on Produce Organs...From Printer · · Score: 1

    What about new skin for people that are badly burned? This is probably one of the first steps that can be done and that has a high demand.

  13. Time on H2O/IP · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't that that forever? A 10 meter drop would take approximately one second. Since several drops are needed for one byte it will take 8 seconds for one byte to be send over. If they do not use TCP/IP and just send over a RAW 320 x 256 picture (MCGA) they would have to wait : 655360 seconds. This will be: 7 days, 14 hours, 2 minutes and 40 seconds...

  14. Cool on Web Enabled Spacecraft · · Score: 1

    They probably use FTP for upgrading the flash rom as well. I wonder if they use a VPN connection. I also would like to know what the PING will be... I wouldn't recommend starting a CounterStrike server on it :)

  15. Right... on MacAddict Tracks Down eBay Scam Artist · · Score: 1

    "Mr. Christmas said he didn't even know what email was. Obviously a PC user." The idiot really is a dumb Mac fan... 1 PC user probably knows MORE of computers than 2 Mac users ever will... Windows isn't that slick in it's interface as MacOS; you really *NEED* knowledge to use it.

  16. Don't get it on The Sims Online & "Open Source" Gaming Models · · Score: 1

    How the guy just goes from a massive multiplayer game to open source development simply goes beyond my astonnishment. You can't compare that. He is also too negative towards Mozilla in my point of view. I don't think he really tried a release.

  17. Nothing on What Software Do Cable Installers Place on Your PC? · · Score: 1

    They had an offering, if you let them install a network card + software + configuration I would have spent EUR 300,- more. They would have charged me EUR 100,- for the network card what normally cost me EUR 10,- (no kidding). Labour cost are also extremly high. I used a do-it-yourself-kit. Before using a cable I had a dailup, they also provide software I didn't want to install (also contains spyware).

  18. Humm on Windows/NetBIOS pop-up Spam: · · Score: 1

    Funny how everybody seems to know how to stop the messages from comming in, but no one really seems to stop the problem from emerging in the first place. Let's focus on stopping people from sending then... it would make the world a lot more nicer than it is now...

  19. But... on Cell Phone-Controlled Household Robot Revealed · · Score: 2, Funny

    Can it keep an IRC channel open?

  20. Most important... on What The Net is Doing to You · · Score: 1

    Will this study be publish on the net?

  21. Same problem on Music Industry Pays $67M Fine For Price Fixing · · Score: 1

    We have the same problem in the Netherlands. We are the largest CD consumers in the world (in percentages!). I don't even remember the last time I saw a LP. Prices here have been high for quite a while. There once was an investigation to look into the fixed price myth (Witch we all know here is true). But I guess the RIAA in our country (different name here) simply got a nice 'bonus', smiled and stepped aside. Recently I read an article in a newspaper here that some small record labels agreed with us hackers that illegal MP3 swapping was not causing the CD sales to drop, it's the huge price. They dropped their prices... everybody is waiting to see what happend next...

  22. Money on MS Reveals Big-Name Xbox Games · · Score: 1

    X-Box might be a nice console, frankly I don't know. I do not own any of them. I have played on a PS ONE once, it was kinda fun. I only know that I have spend more than $2000,- on my PC. So why bother to buy a game console for playing games? It would cost me MORE money, since I can also play games on my PC i'll stick to that. Plus: I read that some people prefer a keyboard to play with. I have a Logitech Wingman for my games but I never use it. I play Ghost Recon, Delta Force Land Warrior and games like it. You can not play with anything else BUT with a keyboard when playing those games... (but that is just my opinion). I once read an interview with the best Quake (1 a that time) in the Netherlands. He used you hands on a keyboard and didn't use a mouse. His left hand was for server side commands and his right for client side... let's see that on a console :)

  23. Re:Recycle Bin vs Trash Can on Undelete In Linux · · Score: 1

    Then we will call it a "Bit Bin" in Linux :)

  24. Re:Limit? on Intel Demos 4.7-GHz Pentium · · Score: 1
