  1. Peercast and Ogg Vorbis on Ideas for a Recording Industry Alternative? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Peercast
    I'm surprised noone has mentioned Peercast as a viable way of broadcasting music for free...I think that's one of the reasons that the peercast programmer made the program...

  2. Aereal Density measured in bits not bytes on IBM's "Pixie Dust" Drives Improved · · Score: 5, Informative

    FYI when they say an area of 70gb they mean 70gigabits per square inch not bytes...

  3. Re:Maybe a major problem? on Darwin 6.0.2 for x86 Released · · Score: 0, Troll

    can you say, half-assed effort? :)

  4. Daylight Savings Time on Lik-Sang Back Online · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    In the light of so many repeated stories...I was wondering, did slashdot perl programs hit a nasty bug when Daylight Savings Time hit this morning?

  5. Re:Ah, I see... on Philip's SFFO 3cm 4Gig Optical Discs · · Score: 1

    What I really want in storage is already covered by the CD, the floppy, and the DVD (though DVD is a little expensive). This will be smaller then a DVD, but hold the same amount. What I think it needs to take off is that stuff that the CD people built into a drive to make a RW act like a floppy.

    IIRC, this is called Mt. Raineer support, and the newest CDRWs support this.

  6. Re:Well... on Windows/NetBIOS pop-up Spam: · · Score: 1

    This is odd...I MADE a GUI for my little home LAN that uses netsend.
    About a month ago I had to "lift" the firewall to try some odd program that needed a range of ports open...
    One minute later, the "spam popup" came up. I knew exactly what this was so I proceeded to shut port 135 down.

  7. Re:Future of networking on Email Over High-Frequency Radio in West Africa · · Score: 1

    >The company I work for used to have a Chicago address, just because nobody would believe that a large, international, reputable organization would be based in Salt Lake City that's odd...I just am back from Utah and on my way home I saw the headquarters for Ebay in SLC! I also saw a couple of "large international reputable organizations" which can't remember right off the bat that were in SLC...

  8. Re:RIAA's next move? on Music Industry Pays $67M Fine For Price Fixing · · Score: 3, Informative

    I don't know about you, but if you are SO concerned about not being able to play your own cd's if you move computers and/or reformat, here is the solution (at least with Windows Media Player): 1) Open up media player 2) Go to the tools menu, License Management 3) Click on "Browse", choose a location then click "Backup" 4) Follow the instructions Voila! To play your content in another computer, repeat the procedure, but instead use "restore".

  9. Imagine a Beowulf Cluster of this! on Running 100,000 Parallel Threads · · Score: 1

    yeah, had to say it, first time I do :)

  10. Re:Japanese Culture. on Miyazaki's Spirited Away U.S. Release · · Score: 1

    what about Spic'N Spam? ladeeelaa...waiting 20 seconds.....

  11. Re: God's experiments on Finding the Viscosity of Pitch · · Score: 1

    And if you don't believe in God, maybe you believe Emeril was the one who created the universe with his big BAM! :)
