  1. Nothing really on Sober.P Worm Accounts for 5% of all Email Traffic · · Score: 1, Interesting

    If they have SP2, the computer automatically runs the updates.

  2. Re:I know it exists. I'm in the pilot. on Sun Developers Refute OpenSolaris Vaporware Claims · · Score: 1

    Only Sun can do that.

  3. I know it exists. I'm in the pilot. on Sun Developers Refute OpenSolaris Vaporware Claims · · Score: 1

    I was asked to join the pilot because of my Gentoo Portage on Solaris idea a year or so back.

  4. Bankrupt the RIAA on RIAA File-Sharing Lawsuits Top 10,000 People Sued · · Score: 1, Interesting

    If every one of those people had fought back, the RIAA wouldn't have been able to keep up with the legal stuff. Better yet, get a class action suit against the RIAA for invasion of privacy.

  5. Stephen Frye is the new voice on Douglas Adams Remembered By Those Who Knew Him · · Score: 2, Informative

    Just an FYI. And he does it very well from the examples on the international HHGTTG movie site.

  6. Here's the missing screenshots on Graphical Gentoo Installer In The Works · · Score: 1

    GIS

  7. Jhymn! on Britons Frustrated by DRM · · Score: 1

    I de-drm my iTunes music with Jhymn. Now if only my Neuros could play m4a files.

  8. Re:Send in the Clones! on White House: No Kerry Supporters at IATC Meeting · · Score: 1

    People were unhappy with Bush Sr. and were looking for an out. Perot had a "cut the crap" manner as a political outsider. Many Americans were still wondering why Bush allowed Saddam to stay in power after Desert Storm. (And many were displeased with the way the US took off when the citizens of Iraq started to revolt against Saddam)

  9. Re:Send in the Clones! on White House: No Kerry Supporters at IATC Meeting · · Score: 1

    www.newsmeat.com

    As a matter of fact, yes.

  10. Re:In other news... on Hard Drive Cooling for 10 Cents · · Score: 1

    No I'm sure they spin using fairy flux.

  11. Re:The spoon explanation. on Saving Lives with Design · · Score: 1

    This reminds me of the anthrax letters. All these news stories "The President wants to assure everyone that he DOES NOT have anthrax"

    So at work we used to joke about it where I'd say "Bush does not have anthrax" and the other guy would turn and give me a suprised look and say "Bush has anthrax?"

  12. Don't use -fweb with 4.0 on GCC 4.0.0 Released · · Score: 1

    -fweb came with 3.4 and supposedly helped optimize code in general but in 4.0 some things changed and now -fweb is making code slower according some GCC developers, so you don't want to be using it as a CFLAG any more.

  13. I got rid of Turbotax on Tracking Your Taxes · · Score: 1

    I switched to TaxCut when Intuit tried that crap a few years ago writing things in places on the HD that could screw up a Linux install. I had the option again this year and thought, nope, I'm still not happy with them.

  14. I'll trade it....Not for cash. on Intel Seeking Moore's Law Original Publication · · Score: 1

    For an 8 way opteron system, fully loaded. The catch is, Intel has to purchase the opterons for me.

  15. But the point is on U.S. to Require Passport To Re-Enter Country · · Score: 1

    All those people that threatened to move to Canada last November... I don't *want* them to come back!

  16. Ending Voyager?! on NASA Proposes Ending Voyager · · Score: 1

    Oh well, there's always syndication...

  17. Thanks Senator! on Senator Clinton Slams GTA · · Score: 1

    Because of your husband, more children know what a blowjob is. But if you think about Joe Lieberman was the guy to get all this blame the video game stuff rolling in the first place.

  18. Re:I'm not so sure... on Faulty Chips Might Just be 'Good Enough' · · Score: 1

    The cdfreaks forum has ways to recover from bad flashes on most drives.

  19. Linux this and linux that on Linux-based Bluetooth Robot · · Score: 1

    I don't see anywhere that it says it runs linux. But assuming it does, what cpu is hiding in there? I'm assuming some sort of MIPS since that's what Sony seems to like for consumer devices. But what else? Can I ssh into it? Memory? I need specs people!

  20. Re:Disappointed and terrified on Linux-based Bluetooth Robot · · Score: 1

    Daleks also "emerged" from the water in "The Dalek Inavasion of Earth" but they never really got into how.

  21. Re:Please Explain on FCC Extends Set-Top Box Deadline · · Score: 1

    I didn't see anyone mention that a cable box is REQUIRED to get the "pay channels" that don't show commercials such as HBO, Cinemax, Showtime, etc. If you tune to those channels without a cable box, you may get some audio but the video is green and purple and twists and warps all over your screen.

  22. Re:The only drawback on UK Doctors Cure Type 1 Diabetes · · Score: 1

    What do Bush's polcies on stem cell research have to do with cord blood stem cells?

  23. Almost the same idea with 8mm tapes. on DVHS on a Budget · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I bought some Data-8 tapes from used computer store cheap and was able to use them as 8mm video tapes with no apparent quality difference. I would have tried using them as Hi-8 but I didn't have any devices capable of recording Hi-8. The idea was similar, there are little holes in the bottom of the tape. It appears 1 hole for 8, 2 for hi-8 and 3 for data. (I may be wrong, but that's what I could remember)

  24. Might I recommend SpeedswitchXP on SpeedStep On Your Desktop - Intel's Prescott-2M · · Score: 4, Informative

    This is a free program that lets you control speedstep in XP (something you could do with windows 2000). I have my laptop set for full performance when on AC and Max Battery when unplugged.

  25. Here's the list of excuses for anything on Grand Theft Auto Led Teen to Kill · · Score: 1

    Video games made me do it.
    Jesus made me do it.
    Allah made me do it.
    The devil made me do it.
    The drugs made me do it.
    The alcohol made me do it.
    The voices made me do it.
    The gun to my head made me do it.

    Did I miss anything?
