  1. Re:Download Manager with no restart functionality? on Mozilla 1.2 Betas Start Flowing · · Score: 1
    Have you tried Star Downloader?

    Certainly not a definitive solution, but until they come up with something moresuited to your taste in Mozilla 1.3... ;o)

  2. So... on Judge Kills Napster Sale Over Conflict of Interest · · Score: 1
    ...Is this the final R.I.P., then?

    (With apologies to Europe)

    "the Greek took Troy nontheless, it just took 'em a couple of years..."

    See you in 2012, then...

  4. You did not mention the best part... on John Gilmore and Maddog Hall discuss .ORG bids · · Score: 1
    From Gandi's Registration Agreement:

    "The Client owns the Domain Name registered. Gandi simply acts on the Client's behalf. "
    Unlike other registrars out there, with Gandi *you* are the owner of the domain (as long as you pay for it). They're not owning it on your behalf.

    A more subtle distinction that it appears at first, IMHO.

  5. Re:The RIAA and MPAA don't realize on MPAA Requests Immunity to Commit Cyber-Crimes · · Score: 1
    Why not December 2002? That period of the year is susceptible to really hurt them at the purse!

    I know, I know, it's already hard to purchase all the necessary gifts in time... Take away all the CDs and DVDs and such, what will be left? Well, actually that could be a subject of the campaign:

    Don't buy her/him a CD, give her a [fill blank here] instead

  6. Trouble is... on Spam Doesn't Work? · · Score: 1

    ...just one buyer out of 1'000 spammed (nay, make that even 100'000) will still feed the bastards. And hence make spam an attractive option.

  7. But... but.. but... on Volvo's "Safety Car" Runs Windows 98 · · Score: 1

    I thought they *promised* not to do that! THem bastards... You really can't trust anyone nowadays...

  8. Vadim's Tetris story on Seventeen Years of Tetris · · Score: 1
    Some more historical anecdotes about Tetris can be found here, if you're interested.

    And as a bonus, an original Tetris download is available too...

  9. Carl Linnaeus on Isn't it Time for Metric Time? · · Score: 1
    The correct spelling of Linné's latin name seems to be "Carl Linnaeus". It is also commonly written as "Carl von Linné".

    There's more at Linné Online. He really was a fascinating scientist!

  10. Yeah, and don't forget... on Mozilla Email & Calendar PDA Synchronization? · · Score: 1

    ...us poor old Psionists! A unique opportunity to save another endagered species

  11. Not your average couch potato on Native Sorenson Playback Comes to Linux · · Score: 4, Funny
    I have a fully working SVQ3 codec that I reverse engineered sitting on my harddrive

    Man, that must have been uncomfortable!

  12. OTOH on Mobile Phone in Your Teeth! · · Score: 1
    How the heck did they test it I wonder?

    And one wonders why finding volunteers for fundamental research testing is becoming so hard...

  13. Re:If not the government? on Internet Routes Around South African Gov't · · Score: 1
    hopefully in another few years they'll realise the bubble burst two years ago.

    Oh shit! It did?!
