  3. Re:Contacting publicly traded corporations on New Dell Clickthrough Software License · · Score: 1

    My new ibook came with a couple of apps to set up AOL and earthlink automatically for me. They weren't on the desktop but they buried in the applications folder.

  4. Safari on Mac OS X: State Of The Browsers · · Score: 1

    The one thing that I wish Safari had is a button to start a new blank tab on the toolbar. I know it's no big deal, just use the keyboard shortcut, but I got use to using this in Mozilla/Firebird.

  5. Help Contribute to OO? on Mac OS X Software Roundup · · Score: 1

    So how does one get in touch with Dan Williams mentioned in the interview? I would like to help a bit with porting OO to mac os x. Not much of a coder but they mentioned that they could use some warm bodies for other tasks

  6. Britney Spears Gaff on MTV on Perfect Pitch for Those Without It · · Score: 1

    I remember flipping through the channels one day and stoping on MTV. Briney was up there half naked as usaul so I stopped to watch. When she was done "signing" her song the VJ started to interview her. When she started to talk, it was barley audible. The sound technicans had turned the level down so low that you couldn't hear her real signing voice and only the tape. I guess they forgot to turn it up after she was done with the performance.

  7. Re:How many Slashdotters does it take... on Light Bulb Replacements · · Score: 1

    Congratulations, I think you just a new record for the longest run on sentence.

    Homer: Come on, come on, don't you realize this is costing me money!

  9. Re:Disposable Tech & Laziness + Big Macs on Japan's War On E-Waste · · Score: 1

    I agree with this. Everyday you see ads for new products that are disposable themselves or packaged in outrageous ways.

    For example, all of these prepackaged floor mop things, or those little pellets that go in the dishwasher that are individually wrapped in plastic.

    All this crap and the crap it's packaged in goes in the garbage and into a landfill. Out of sight out of mind.

    Holden:You're in a desert, walking along when -

    Leon: What one?

    Holden: What?

    Leon: What desert?

    Holden: Doesn't matter what desert it is, it's completely hypothetical.

    Leon: Well, how come I'd be there?

    Holden: Maybe you're fed up. Maybe you just wanted to get away from it all. Anyway. You're in a desert, walking along when you look down and you see a tortoise, Leon. It's crawling toward you.

    Leon: What's a tortoise?

    Holden: You know what a turtle is?

    Leon: 'Course!

    Holden: Same thing. So you reach down and flip the tortoise over on its back, Leon.

    Leon: Do you make up these questions, Mr. Holden? Or do they write 'em down for you?

    Holden: The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.

    Leon: WHAT DO YOU MEAN, I'M NOT HELPING?

    Holden: I mean you're not helping, Leon.

  11. Bank Account? on Lord of the Rings: Two Towers Reviews Rolling In · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    This is the second time you have given advice to open a bank account to help us uneducated americans forget about 9/11. I don't understand where this is coming from? How does this help?

  16. Re:Sharp Zaurus and 802.11 wireless on Component MP3/OGG Players? · · Score: 1

    Actually the stereo-link looks pretty good. It says that it works with linux and is only 150 bucks. It looks pretty cool too. The Edirol UA-1A doesnt appear to work with linux and doesnt have the same zoot factor as the stereo link. Hmm the wheels are turning. I just ripped about 200 cds this weekend into ogg and was looking for something just like this. Pretty sweet.

  17. Democrats more tech savy than GOP on Protecting Your DRM Rights · · Score: 1

    I see that all of these bills both for and against copying, DRM etc were put forth by Democrats. Does this mean that Democrats are more "with it" when it comes to technology than there more conservative counterparts the Republicans?
