How hard can it be to implement a link check in submissions? It can check for older articles, say a month or so, to see if that link was referenced in another article. (it should not check the entire article database because that would be expensive!)
Why are the editors so clueless? Do they read what they post? (i think they do since they deny so many articles)
Debido a la gran cantidad de visitantes que ha recibido la web sobre las 18:00 horas, el servidor se ha venido abajo sin permitirnos tan siquiera, dar un enlace de descarga del reproductor. Hasta hace escasos minutos no hemos podido volver a acceder a la web, lo que nos ha obligado a empezar a distribuir el reproductor por otros canales.
Translation: thanks to those sob's from slashdot, now we cannot release our player due to severe slashdotting. Those goats!;)
...how many of you think that the moon trip was a hoax? I don't know what to believe... So for now, i will say that the moon trip was true unless someone tells me a good reason of why NASA would want to hoax something this important.
I want to use psi, but until it has file transfer, it's not usable for me. And for windows, i am sorry, but you cannot beat trillian.
I have never liked too much the jabber protocol. So, i dont have just to keep track of the msn server to be online, but i also have to keep track of the jabber server, since if it's down (and it is lots of the time), i cant use msn even if the msn server is working.
I know that having an intermediate server is an advantage too, but for the regular user it's a disadvantage
...my country Venezuela is #77, and our press says everything on their mind. The problem is, that the goverment takes revenge. They closed all the tv channels on the april 11th strike (silly thing, since one channel has a satellite and jumped off the restriction)
Since they are subscription based and need servers, piracy is cut down , almost all of it. What i don't approve is that the games cost full price like every offline game plus the subscription, which is not cheap at all.
At least anarchy online allows you to test the game for free
All of you that want to try Xandros just email them. I would think they are smart and if people show them that they are willing to buy the stuff if they like it after testing, then they will.
Xandros, just put a live cd or include it in some crappy machines like Lindows.

open standards my ass
open standards should be Free
Since nintendo 64, everyone knows that console games outsold pc games by a factor of 5 or more.
DUH, consoles are for gaming, pc are for working, internet, and SOME use them for gaming.
DUH, PC costs way more than 200$ of the consoles (at least a decent one for gaming does)

Well they should have better memory than we do
How does it feel to be given a taste of your own medicine, a.k.a slashdotting?
Do you think it's funny that not so big sites are driven down by your website users?
Do you think you can't do anything about it? Yes, you can.
between mplayer and xmms, i dont think much people will miss liquid audio (i never heard of it before until today)
Now that taco has gone propietary with this wife, he has sucumbed to microsoft and left the open source community (a.k.a other girls) alone

I agree, but guess what, it's already taken, and it's a gecko based browser
Anyone noticed that in one place she says she lost just 3 pages and in other she says she lost the whole thing?
...too much the star wars universe. I know that if we would have a star movies/games every year, the hype would reduce.
You CAN have too much of a good thing

There goes a whole bunch of "IANAL" posts. Come on, i am ready ;)
right click on the game icon and properties, then disable visual themes. 10 frames more. woot
...if you can't find them on p2p sites.
;)
Yes ogg is so good, it eliminates the piracy problem
In the long run, math does not lie. The one with the most votes win. Period.
Here in Venezuela we just count all the votes from every part of the country, and add them up. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Havent read all other posts, but i remember a while back that the movie "batman vs superman" or whatever is already confirmed
Probably the reg does not care because they don't have a DMCA to worry about. Shame on them for being Free

It does not mean anything. Come on, a simple sneeze may distract a human from thinking properly
