  1. Life in the universe on Might Mars Contain Life? · · Score: 2, Funny

    "Life was created in the initial Big Bang, when crunchy particles of wheat collided with creamy milk to form the foundation for all else to come. It wasn't until man developed the technology to build spoons and bowls could we harness the true power of Life. "

  2. vonage on Cisco to Ship Wi-Fi Phone in June · · Score: 1

    I'd like to see vonage dump the cisco voice ip routers and let us use phones like this on our exisiting wifi setup.

  3. Re:Fink and Mcafee virus on New Fink Binary Distribution 0.5.2 · · Score: 5, Informative
    virex and fink are fine now. download 7.2.1 from mac.com.

    to fix a messed up fink from 7.2 just:

    fink reinstall openssl-shlibs dlcompat-shlibs curl-ssl-shlibs

    and you're set to go.

  4. Re:sharing on Apple Plans to Purchase Universal Music · · Score: 1

    well we know they goofed and "lost focus" with the powerschool purchase. So yes, Apple has the ability to make mistakes too.

  5. isync on Apple Plans to Purchase Universal Music · · Score: 1
    with rumors of new ipods and an apple branded music service- I wonder if this has any connection to it all:

  6. sharing on Apple Plans to Purchase Universal Music · · Score: 4, Interesting
    rip mix burn.

    Jobs is the only one that "gets" it. With Univeral being one of the largest record companies- this could change the face of music inthe digital age.

    My fear is that it's such a big addition to apple- will they loss focus. Look at the problems sony electronics have trying to be cutting edge but catering to Sony music's fears of piracy.

    And what about that pesky lawsuit with Apple Records. Apple was never to go into the music business.

  7. Re:brand confusion on Beige Box Apple Clone? · · Score: 1

    exactly what i was getting at, but much more eloquently conveyed.

  8. Re:brand confusion on Beige Box Apple Clone? · · Score: 3, Funny
    no apple does not own "i". they're going to claim he's causing brand confusion. Apple lawyers will argue that the marketplace will be confused and consumers will buy iboxes thinking they are apple computers.

    unlike lindows- this guy in his garage making iboxes as a hobby will not have the legal power or cash to stop the i-steamroller

  9. brand confusion on Beige Box Apple Clone? · · Score: 5, Insightful
    the name "ibox" is going to get him in trouble.

    apple legal is going to go after him for creating brand confusion and misleading the consumer into thinking the "ibox" is an apple product.

    I wish him luck, but I bet he's going to get squashed by apple legal.

  10. Rendezvous info on Rendezvous For Apache · · Score: 1

    Is there any technical info on Rendezvous? Does it not broadcast across subnets? I've added mod_rendezvous to 2 macs on different subnets of my network and they can't be seen...

  11. the gift that keeps on giving on Geek Christmas Gift Ideas · · Score: 1
    what about a $28,000 stove that looks like a locomotive. Every geek needs to eat!

  12. tompkins square park on The Wireless City · · Score: 1

    As someone who lives in alphabet city- I wouldn't recommended hanging out in Tompkins Square Park with a laptop.

  13. tivo personalities on When Profiling Goes Wrong · · Score: 4, Funny
    my tivo keeps recording childrens shows and documentaries on hard-core drug use.

    To my tivo, I'm a 5 year old with a $600 a week crack habit.

  14. pixo os? on Neuros - Portable MP3 player, FM radio, Digital Recorder · · Score: 1, Informative

    It looks like this thing is running a pixo OS - almost identical to the one the iPod uses.

  15. ATONs on Landshark · · Score: 0
    It seems the inital designs are missing ATONs (aid to naviation).

    Without running lights (starboard, port, steaming/mooring) I think the coast guard is going to have a problem with this thing, as surely it's going to be classified as a boat and not a personal watercraft.

  16. new and improved antennas on Possible Big Boost in WiFi Range · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Now with faster and larger tumors.
