  1. Re:Read the actual article before you comment!!! on French Response to Google is Microsoft · · Score: 1

    You're new here, aren't you?

  2. Maybe the only link you'll ever need on Flash Developers Fear Spectre of Spyware · · Score: 1

    http://www.beautifully-webdesign.net/

    Pages upon pages of good flash or HTML based design (some not so great, some FANTASTIC.) Most of these sites also have links to other great sites. You'll get your 4+ hours worth out of it.

  3. Flash and Actionscript beneath slashdot readers? on Flash Developers Fear Spectre of Spyware · · Score: 2, Informative

    I am a slashdot reader who uses both, and let me tell you something; from my experience, it's not that it's beneath you, it's beyond you. 90% of the slashdot readers couldn't build an interesting interface if you lives depended on it, and I'm willing to put money on that. I know lots of other slashdot readers in my region, and guess what? They know this too. I could code in something other than actionscript, but I choose not to. I like design, I like graphics, and I'd appreciate not getting chastised for this choice, just as you (the rest of the slashdot world who believes Flash is "beneath" you) wouldn't appreciate unfounded criticism of your choice of profession. You, just as I, realize your place and your importance, and without your efforts and work, there would be a lot of people scrambling to get shit done. I make things easy, VERY easy for idiots; the rest of you make it work. We know the world we live in, and we know that without the effort we put into quality work and quality code, this world could be brought to it's knees, and you know as well as the next /.er that you've thought those same words. I would appreciate seeing a little less of this sort of sentiment from the readership here, and just a bit more appreciation for the world beyond C98 code, or whatever the hell you chose to be your weapon of choice.

    Mod me down, do what you will, but I had to rant.

    Fuck you, you arrogant prick. Get over your shitty attitude, and get a job. I'm tired of your kind. Grow up, get with the program, quit being pissed that your life didn't end up like you had hoped, and please, for the love of god, stop acting like the world owes you something.

    Excellent comment, many thanks!

    The kitten on your website looks more like a cat.

  9. Re:Quicktime is cross-platform on Video Formats for non-Windows Users? · · Score: 1

    I agree that quicktime should be used, but I'm going to 1-up it by saying that even though the quality to file size ratio is a little larger than say, mpeg, the quality at the high end of the spectrum is far greater than any other format for web.

  10. Re:Lots of info left out of the summary... on Microsoft Releases AntiSpyware Program · · Score: 1

    My comment implies that as an uneducated consumer, I'm looking for alternatives to Windows. The implication isn't very apparent; see parent.

  11. Re:Lots of info left out of the summary... on Microsoft Releases AntiSpyware Program · · Score: 2, Informative

    The software detected RealVNC when it was still under the GIANT name. It's not something MS just added.

  12. Re:Lots of info left out of the summary... on Microsoft Releases AntiSpyware Program · · Score: 1

    "...but with other OS's getting more choices of software for end users as well as ease of installation and use (Mandrake, SUSE, Fedora)..."

    Don't forget Mac OSX. If I had to make a choice on a new OS as an uneducated consumer, Apple would be my first.

  13. Re:Don't do it! on Do Unsubscribe Links Stop Spam? · · Score: 1

    whatever.

    yeah ok whatever, you're the third fucker to come on here and tell me I'm wrong.

  15. Re:Don't do it! on Do Unsubscribe Links Stop Spam? · · Score: 1

    If enough spam filters could reliably bounce back spam as undeliverable, then the economics might eventually take it's toll on the spammers, and the ISPs that provide spamming tools. That, at least, might provide incentive for them to go away altogether.

  18. .mobi? on ICANN Approves Two More Top-Level Domains · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I guess they thought .mob just didn't have a friendly ring to it. And why are they getting longer? I tell you, in two years time, we'll be seeing .internetwebsite and .ecommerce. Idjits...

  19. Re:mcain is right on Anti-P2P Law Looms over the Horizon · · Score: 1

    I don't watch television, which means I'm bypassing all kinds of commercials. I don't need a Tivo or some TVR to avoid an advert. So does that make me a criminal for willfully dodging ad spots? I'd have all kinds of counts against me in a 24 hour period if that was the case. I'd love to see that go to hearing or trial. I'd get every person I knew, media or otherwise in on that event.

    Why the hell would you be looking at anything from Amazon if you didn't have an Internet connection? Some common sense please.
