  1. Linux for front end machines? on British Health System Looks at Linux · · Score: 3, Insightful

    As much as I like Linux, the front end needs to mature a bit before going into such a high risk environment where, most of the time, every second is a matter of life and death.

  2. Interesting results from header check tool on Netcraft Web Server Stats Challenged · · Score: 2, Funny

    If you do a header check on a site you get this notice at the bottom:
    "No matter what the above results show, this company may be running Microsoft IIS and protecting its Web server identity with ServerMask."

    ServerMask must be the paperbag for ugly IIS servers or corporations who don't want to admit they run IIS

  3. Simulating current internet activity on UCB, USC To Build (And Hack) A Model Internet · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I wonder how they will be going around to simulate the current p2p and other activity on it...

  4. Important question on Toshiba Pushes Safe, Small Nuclear Reactor Design · · Score: 1

    This is sort of important, do you remember whom exactly controls the "certification"?

    Except they don't complain, they just join the fun! :D

  6. Hmmmmm on Dilbert Readers Rat Out Some Weasels · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Doesn't it seem interesting that they were are all the stereotypical, most well known weasels?

  7. Re:Neck strain? on Multiple Monitors Increase Productivity · · Score: 1

    I have a dual display system and I'm VERY happy with Ultramon http://www.ultramon.com as it also allows you to do a super-maximize effect to BOTH screens and gives me another task bar for the second monitor with TONS of other features.

  8. Why not on Where Is Spam When You Want It? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You want spam? You should have put in your email address into the submitted article...

  9. Gateway servers on Pilot a Plane with a PDA? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    First Gateway drugs and now Gateway servers? What is the world coming to!?

  10. Re:Speaking of Spam on Spammer Hangout's Membership Roster Left Exposed · · Score: 1

    Remind me to use one of THEIR email addresses when submitting articles...

  11. Miracle Blade Knifes! on Roomba Competitor Slightly Lacking · · Score: 3, Funny

    We bought a bunch of these Miracle Blade 3 things... damn these suckers are sharp (and stay sharp, great for tough steak/cinderblocks), if you can help me find my left index finger that would help though. Very happy with the set, we even got a second one for free accidently.

  12. Re:Blame Canada, blame Canada... *sings* on SARS Contained · · Score: 1

    I'm Canadian... I liked Southpark and their antics. Urhm... happy belated Canada day.

  13. I have an image that represents this... on SARS Contained · · Score: 0, Offtopic

  14. Re:southpark quote... on SARS Contained · · Score: 1

    And the death rate percentage during the black plague in Europe was ONLY %30, WOW!

  15. Blame Canada, blame Canada... *sings* on SARS Contained · · Score: 4, Funny

    Ehem, sorry, couldn't resist it... damn those Southpark kids!

  16. Re:Didn't ATI just win Xbox 2.0 contract? on ATI's Radeon Linux drivers no longer supported? · · Score: 1

    Am I the only one who found it funny that a comment who's body is just the word "interesting" was modded interesting? funny.

  17. I find this interesting! on GF FX 5900 Ultra vs. ATi Radeon 9800 Pro · · Score: 2, Informative

    The new Radeon Catalyst drivers (2.5) have this very interesting note in the change log: "The 3DMark2003 shader optimizations found in previous CATALYST(TM) releases have been removed" Yet Nvidia gets to keep THEIR optimizations... hrm.

  18. Ahh it burns, the pain! on Flight Simulator 2002 With 13 Monitors And 9 PCs · · Score: 2, Interesting

    That room must be great for loosing a few pounds, you know, like in a sauna? My room only has 4 machines in it with 2 displays and it's a hot house....

  19. Re:Giger.... on Build a Rotisserie Scanner With Legos · · Score: 1

    This just in, I can't tell left from right and I can't tell submit from preview!

  21. Conversion from C# to F# on Inside Microsoft's New F# Language · · Score: 1

    Maybe they will create a language called F#C# .... which also would describe the adaptation stage!

  22. Re:She's Also a Photodisc Model! on Microsoft Tries a "Switch" Campaign · · Score: 1

    Why would Microsoft want to use something which is more defective then anything else around? It makes you think if they actually create their webpages in Frontpage...
