  1. You, too?

  2. Re:FLASH* Babys whine, water's wet, the sky's blue on AT&T Brings Fiber To Rich Areas While the Rest Are Stuck On DSL, Study Finds (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    The sane aren't the problem. It's the cliche`spouting non-thinkers that are. Although as one of the poor guys mentioned in the article, I would like to have at least a choice of ISPs in my extremely rural mountain town. ATT hasn't built ANYTHING out to here...

  3. Broken code fix on Ask Slashdot: How Would You Stop The Deployment Of Unapproved Code Changes? · · Score: 1

    Developer's head on a pike as a warning to others. The hint will be taken, I promise.

  4. Re:I was benefitted from a similar initiative. on Maryland Awards 21 Grants To Prepare 'Open Source' Textbooks (usmd.edu) · · Score: 1

    I have no karma to give, but thank you all the same for an informative post. Good luck.

    Or use Kiwix without rooting...

  6. Please?

  7. Sure, Google. Why isn't my old Samsung i9520 updated? Hmmm? It's a Google store product...and only about five years old.

  8. Can only mean one thing: on Unprecedented DDoS Attack At Swedish Government, Media Outlets (www.dn.se) · · Score: 1

    Invasion.

  9. Re:Why are scientists so ignorant? on Newly Discovered Sea Creature Was Once the Largest Animal On Earth · · Score: 1

    the sky is actually the skull of a giant held aloft by 4 dwarves,

    FIVE elves.

    Heretic.

    Thank you for your service.

  11. This question is on Ask Slashdot: New To Linux; Which Distro? · · Score: 1

    the best troll ever.

  12. Data. please on CES: Can a Gyroscope Ball Really Cure Wrist Pain? (Video) · · Score: 1

    The plural of "anecdote" is _still_ not "data".

  14. These robots? on Surfing Robot Tracks Great White Sharks · · Score: 1
  15. Hard to work in on Ask Slashdot: What's Your Beef With Windows Phone? · · Score: 1

    I'm new to app development, but WP7 is the most poorly documented (probably because it's new), ridiculously locked-down environment to code in I have yet suffered through. Things don't work that should due to intended security constraints, making it impossible to casually develop something in free time that might get made truly useful (read: monetized) later. Frustrating enough that I have decided to compete in the Android app space instead. It may be crowded, but at least I can do it.

  16. Why LINUX isn't ready for prime-time on Exploring Linux Desktop Myths · · Score: 1

    http://peltiercooler.blogspot.com/ details the attempt to use LINUX by a patient, non-IS guy.

    It's pretty long, and has an unhappy ending.

  17. Re:PVR functionality limited on PCs? on How Close is the Open Entertainment Center? · · Score: 1

    I have two capture cards installed on my win98SE box...but I wouldn't try to use them at the same time...IDE bandwidth issues.

    I haven't even tried to install even one in my Mandrake box, because I suspect it will take an eon or tow to make it work, and then Buffy will be off the air.

  18. ?? Is this new?? on Cleveland Public Library Readies E-book Downloads · · Score: 1

    My local library (Oakland, CA) has e-books available one page at a time (irritating, but I have DSL, so the wait isn't very much) through someone or other...I used inter-library loan to get the paper copies.

    Is Cleveland doing something different in that the WHOLE book is available at once? Is that it?

  19. Re:What else is new? on Research: File Traders And Music Purchasing · · Score: 1

    Does anyone know whether record sales _dropped_ after the demise of Napster?
