  1. False Positives? on Chatroulette Working On Genital Recognition Algorithm · · Score: 3, Funny

    It'll be interesting when they start getting false positives: "Sorry dude, but you actually DO look like a dick."

  2. Re:There is some bad news too on Did the Netbook Improve Windows 7's Performance? · · Score: 1

    Thankfully, MediaMonkey supports newer iPods and iPhones. iTunes is like torture for power users with large libraries. Too bad that MediaMonkey only supports Windows.

  3. Looks fine now on Tier One ISPs Dying · · Score: 1

    The Internet Health Report cited in TFA shows all green now. It looks like whatever problem they had is solved.

  4. Re:What a great idea!!! on 63% Of Corporations Plan To Read Outbound Email · · Score: 5, Funny
    1GB? That's nothing. I bet Mr. Goatse could sneak a whole file server out of his office.
    Out of his office and into his orifice.
  5. Supporrting Companies with OSS Strategies on Novell's Race Against Time · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I bought Novell shares around the time they announced their acquisition of SuSE. At that time, Novell was shifting its strategy into aggressively supporting opensource projects (SuSE, Mono, KDE, etc). Ever since then, their stock has been going in a downward spiral. I guess this is what happens when you support a company based on what you believe in rathar than what actually sells. Sad.

  6. Re:On demand porn on What's Next For Mozilla? · · Score: 5, Informative

    Already thought of :-) Check out Pornzilla
    Now the fox is ready to take over the world.

  7. More vorbis content is needed on Vorbis And Musepack Win 128kbps Multiformat Test · · Score: 4, Insightful

    One way I see Vorbis making it into the mainstream is if there were high availability of Vorbis content on the net. This includes P2P channels as well. If music releasers in the underworld start adopting vorbis, then Joe 'I own the original CD' Downloader will get a far wider familiarity with the codec, same as to what happened IMHO with xvid. More content will eventually lead consumers to start demanding vorbis compatibility in their hardware.

  8. Re:what do you want? on US Expands Fingerprint and Mugshot Program for Visitors · · Score: 1

  9. Re:Trouble with traditional distros on Mandrakelinux 10.0 Community Ready For Download · · Score: 1

    This is exactly the reason God blessed us with urpmi. As for the bandwidth-challenged: I feel your pain!!
    Seriuosly though, I have already upgraded my Mandrake 9.2 to kernel 2.6 and KDE 3.2, which is breath-taking by the way, using the Cooker. I'll still download this for one simple reason: Like many folks here, I cannot sleep well knowing that some piece of software I use isn't upgraded to the latest version.

  10. I just installed it..... on Firebird Relational Database 1.5 Final Out · · Score: 0, Redundant

    ...but i cannot seem to find the Tabbed Browsing thingie :(.

  11. Re:The one "feature" that holds me back on Mozilla Thunderbird 0.4 Released · · Score: 1

    The Problem with Mozilla Calendar is that it is still very buggy, and AFAIK, development on it has stopped since OEOne scaled back its support of the project. I use Mozilla Calendar but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone because it still has several visible bugs. I hope someone picks up interest in this project because it is holding back several users from ditching Outlook in favour of good ole Moz. If i had enough money, this item would be on the top of my Mozilla bounty list.

  12. Oh No!! on Medal of Honor Linux Beta Released · · Score: 5, Funny

    One of the reasons I boot to Linux is to force myself to stop playing MOHAA and get some real work done. I guess this trick won't work anymore. My existence is doomed.

  13. Re:sigh... on CAPPS II Trials Begin in March · · Score: 1

    - Lastly...what does my credit check have to do with whether or not I'm going to blow up a plane?

    Maybe they check your recent transactions, and the system raises a red flag if you made several purchases from 'Acme'(tm)!!!

  14. Re:Mandrake, it's easy, SO? on Mandrake Linux... Not Dead Yet? · · Score: 2, Funny
    I hope they make it out of Chapter 11 or whatever the french equivalent is.

    You mean to say Le Chapitre Onze. :-) Oh la la.

  15. Re:How long does linux stay on the machine? on Wal-Mart Lindows PCs Selling Well · · Score: 1

    If more and more people start doing this, Microsoft will probably sue Wal*Mart for encouraging Windows piracy!!
