  1. But can it record your conversation? on Diva Gem Bluetooth MP3 Player Review · · Score: 1

    Would be neat if it recorded your conversation to mp3 as well. Can you say instant Jerky Boys?

  2. Re:No Mr. Enderle. on Is VOIP Over WLAN DOA? · · Score: 1

    I agree, and no actual hardware used was discussed. Maybe Mr. Enderle should tell that to the guys over at www.locustworld.com? Their mesh has had SIP in it for a while and seems to do VOIP quite well.

  3. Re:Be Fair on Microsoft Patents The Task List · · Score: 2, Interesting

    That's an awsome idea. I think we should setup a fund to create dumb patents to piss off the original holder. How about a utility patent for a method to shorten the TODO list? We can call this a WORK patent. Seriously, let's patent WORK as a way to decrease teh size of the TODO list patent.

    Cube & Cube ][ were great movies. Cube 2 mentioned tesseracts and delved into time idiosyncrasies. Cube 1 was just plain ole fun with some math thrown in. Great movies both, and some nice ideas and human nature 'experiment'.
  5. And this is why.... on Mozilla 1.8 Alpha Released · · Score: 3, Insightful
    developers run screaming from the Mozilla framework. I mean, what's the point of developing for it when what you code will be out-of-date within a month or so. Who will run your app on an 'old' version of Mozilla? I've written some stuff using XUL and JXPCOM and having it work in later browsers is a mixed bag. And as has been said, 1.7 isn't even out yet. Why not focus resources on getting all the bugs quashed in 1.7 to make it the standard for developing. And they have the gall to wonder why developers don't use their framework. Doesn't look like M$ has any competition after all...

  7. Re:A little context on Student Uncovers US Military Secrets · · Score: 0

    In addition, every translation of the Quran is different. I've read a few translations and unfortuantely some are not very accurate. But the major beef I have is that all these quotes are all taken out of context. I mean, why stop there, let's just take the phrase "kill them". The way the Quran is organized is that these little sub-sections you see floating around are akin to taking a contract and only focusing on a sub-section of a clause. Sometimes, completely irrelevent, and difficult to know what it's referring to.

    Well it ain't MS leaked code. That leaked code is just fringe crap, nothing real hardcore and juicy. Ie. no core dll's or kernel source so won't help with compatibility much.

  10. A condom for /. users? on A Running Shoe For Agent 86? · · Score: 2, Funny

    The New York Times (free reg. req.) is reporting on a new condom from goatse.cx that contains a ~10KHz chip capable of changing the condom's characteristics to meet the user's need. From the article: 'Goatse.cx executives say the condom is no gadget-dependent gimmick... Each second, a sensor in the tip can take up to 20,000 readings and the embedded electronic brain can make 10,000 calculations, directing a tiny electric motor to change the shape. The goal is to make the condom adjust to changing conditions and the user's particular style while in use. The condom will have push-button controls, light-emitting diodes to display settings and an instruction manual on a CD-ROM that will advise wearers on, among other things, how to change the battery after every 100 hours of use.' I wonder if the CPU can be overcocked?

    Mine go right in the wash. Hope that motor can adjust for that. Hey, what if the battery leaks while you're running a marathon and your feet get burnt?

    Hey genius. Here's a clue. In your winnt dir there's a list of all the patches and hotfixes applied to your box. To do what he did, setup a vanilla machine, run update. Pack up all the nice directories that say HOT FIX464GATES5645ASS56456 Service Pack4645EAT345ME234 Take those and shove them up an installer of your choice. My point is, that this is a -simple- -un newsworthy- feat. Perhaps you'd like to know next time I backup my machine too.

    How can there be a conflict when all he did was repacke M$'s own patches. No conflicts there. Not like he actually wrote any patches. This whole thing sounds way overblown. Here, let me release SP1.5 for XP. I'll pack up all the current hotfixes with an installer (pick one) and viola! I'm written up in all the second rate news sites that are dying for stories.

    From the article it states that it's a collection of M$ eleased patces ad hotfixes. He just bundled them up with an installer. Heck, my mom can do that.

  21. Re:Flies? More like lame ass script kiddies. on Air Canada Sues Over Misuse Of Employee Password · · Score: 1
    I think you're quite a bit wrong here. You can only check how many available free seats (essentially no-shows) right before teakeoff if you're using their web-reservation system (no I've never used it, but I'm sure it's like every other crappy reservation system).

    So basically you have to query the front-end right before takeoff. Which would explain the hundreds of thousands of queries. I would bet that that number corresponds quite close to the number of flights they've had.
