  1. Grrr!!!! on SCO's Biggest Investor Admits It Loves IP Lawsuits · · Score: 2, Funny

    It is my bridge and I am its troll you cannot live here without paying the toll.

    [burn karma burn]

  2. Hehe on Muscle Cars And Smokin' Chips · · Score: 1

    Yeah its alike. Im not a hot-rodder but I fix cars - Im the type of person who gets his parts second-hand [car or computer]. :P

    If its not broken dont fix it. :)

  3. Blah on Debian Prepares To Vote On Non-Free Software · · Score: 1

    Have a read of this page if you will be voting. :)

  4. This might be useful? on Suggested Reading for IP Lawyers? · · Score: 3, Informative

    Literary Law Guide for Authors [/. book review :]

  5. I can see it now on Virtual Dummy To Try On Clothes · · Score: 1

    A mobile phone of the future which will capture a hot chics body image and which lets you display a virtual nude of her.

    Keep up the good work and the future is always inviting! :)

  6. Optus is not an ISP on More MyDoom Gloom · · Score: 1

    Optus is an Internet Content Provider no matter what they say. Optus implement port blocking, port throttling and transparent proxying which affects your Internet connectivity.

    Optus provide a very fast service but its a pain to use and I prefer dialup now because its real connectivity [I can connect to anything and host a service even if its at 5Kb/s].

    I will always make sure port blocking/throttling/caching is avoided by any ISPs I sign up with in future - thats all 'content control'.

  7. ...and in related news; on USAF Wants To Find Steganographic Content · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    LMFAO will be using the techniques invented to make use of the millions of idle monkeys in the Congo.

  8. Re:ASCII: a language? on EA Uses ASCII Billboard To Woo Rivals · · Score: 1

    NO!

  9. Re:Counter attack. on EA Uses ASCII Billboard To Woo Rivals · · Score: 1

    Nice - too bad they dont suck. ;)

    PS. I read that without looking up an ASCII chart.

  10. I agree, its lame on EA Uses ASCII Billboard To Woo Rivals · · Score: 2, Funny

    Its not written with hexadecimal notation .: its lame.

  11. Re:Incident response times on New IE Holes Discovered · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Itd be really strange if Mozilla broke my Window Manager or something. What exactly would they need to test it with?

    I can understand Internet Explorer needing to be tested against the rest of Windows and its APIs but Mozilla is a stand-alone web browser - as long as the API isnt affected it ['full regression testing'] shouldnt matter too much IMO.

  12. Re:Interesting... on WarCraft Board Game Compared, Rated · · Score: 0

    Bah - I always stuff up my karma whoring - I meant designed not reviewed! ;)

    Aussie Aussie Aussie!!!

  13. Interesting... on WarCraft Board Game Compared, Rated · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Kevin Bloody Wilson reviewed it!!!

  14. Gauntlet and Spy Hunter rock on Midway Arcade Treasures Released, Rated · · Score: 0

    Im surprised Spy Hunter wasnt included in the ./ article [whats Robotron - heh]. :\

  15. Its official on McBride Speaks, In Person And In Print · · Score: 0

    Darl McBride talks to himself.

    Bill Gates? This is about our IP! What are you talking about?

    Classic!

  16. Re:Pre-Approved games by INSOC on Australian Road Safety Authority Criticizes Racing Game · · Score: 0

    Nothing is being filtered by my government except imports/exports.

  17. What about Gold Coast Indy? on Australian Road Safety Authority Criticizes Racing Game · · Score: 0

    I had the same thoughts about the Gold Coast Indy 10 years ago. They turn the Gold Coast into a race track each year here and leave all the banners and markings there so revheads can hit the track at any time.

    Wake up Australia! =)

  18. Conglomerate on Tools for Publishing in Multiple Formats? · · Score: 0

    Conglomerate handles Docbook/XML.

  19. Re:OO and scripts: on Tools for Publishing in Multiple Formats? · · Score: 0

    For the conversions you might find that OO uses xslproc externally?

    If it does [like a few other programs do] then itd be easier to just get the stylesheets to change the XML youve written.

  20. Depends on the materials on Pre-Fab Homes? · · Score: 1, Informative

    If you get a fibro&tin house then it sucks - I lived in one for 10 years.

    If you buy one with non-tin roof and sound-proof walls (that you can put a hook into without it falling out) then itd be OK IMHO - Ive seen some like this on the TV.

  21. Re:Docbook docbook docbook on Tools for Publishing in Multiple Formats? · · Score: 0

    xmlto :)

    Docbook/XML is nice but it needs more formatters - GNU info isnt supported AFAIK. :(

  22. You can stream from MTV already? on MTV Getting into Music Download Business · · Score: -1

    SonicNet [sonicnet.com] lets you play songs from the MTV database as part of their free radio service - theyve done it for 3 years or so. If you spent time indexing all of the songs available you could have on-demand streaming. ;)

  23. Re:Just wondering... on LG CD-ROMs Destroyed by Mandrake 9.2 · · Score: -1

    Thats YOUR opinion.

    If I want to fry my CDROM drive with a bit of code then I should be able to fry it - safeguards are for toddlers.

  24. Re:Why not just say... on Are Linux Zealots Terrorists? · · Score: -1

    Masses are asses - L7. :)

  25. Oh yeah RIGHTO on Why Virus Writers are Useful · · Score: -1

    Thats just stupid saying that.

    Who named self-replicating code as 'virus'? They need a logic bomb dropped on them [no it wont destroy a country].
