  1. Re:Born in 1990... on On the Changing Role of Online Forums? · · Score: 1

    Not trying to detract from your statement, but if you are interested wiki's have been doing some new cool stuff:

    For example http://gentoo-wiki.com

    It has search as you type, and if you click the search button it does do a full text search

  2. Re:Use a computer on Solutions to the Frustrations of Video? · · Score: 1

    Well plus using Hard Drives has a serious advantage over vhs tapes and dvds; get a RAID setup and backup to another box; you're data is going to be alot safer because if you are only keeping one copy of the vhs/dvd and it becomes damaged/lost you can always recreate it from the server and storage is a lot easier keeping two servers running (in different locations ofcourse) than hundreds/thousands of tapes/dvds

  3. No Cache? on Update on Xara's OS Vector Graphics Project · · Score: 1

    Useless without article... Didn't even make it past 10 comments, site down, mirrordot down, coral cache down, and google cache down...

    One of the Popes cleared up the Sistine Chapel years ago, they covered all of the "dirty" body parts with little leaves or sashes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sistine_Chapel

    Anyone from the movie The Core, hands down

  9. Re:It still leaks! on Firefox Update Kills Bugs, Adds Mac Support · · Score: 1

    Yeah, but that isn't a Firefox issue, the plugins are not getting unloaded after they are being used. I have the same problem on my Linux box with the Adobe Acrobat plugin, it is not Firefox's fault, the plugins are written badly and don't unload themselves.

  10. Re:What an awesome idea... on Microsoft Software for Sale, Slightly Used · · Score: 1

    He is literally talking about drivers licenses, that plastic card that the Government issues you...

  11. Re:What a coincidence on Swedish Mathematician Lennart Carleson Wins Abel · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I don't understand this... how hard is Cincinnati to spell? CIN - CIN - NATI. Sorry i'm from here and sick of people being unable to spell the name of my city.

  12. Re:Video killed the radio star. on Movie Theaters Aim for Live 3D Sports · · Score: 1

    No, there is a specific advantage to going to a theater and rooting on your team, the environment that you create with other fans cannot be duplicated with PPV. That is was is going to sell here, not 3D...

  13. Re:happens on POTS as well on Vonage Puts VoIP 911 Caller on Hold · · Score: 1

    No, I don't think it is illegal anywhere. You can call 911 and ask to be put on hold until an operator is available and talk to the operator so you know what to do incase of an emergency situation. The operators do not mind this if you tell them right away this is not a emergency and you are trying to teach your child about 911 or something. It's only illegal if you are being an ass and faking calls...

  14. Re:Name matters on Novell Returns to the SUSE Name · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I'm sorry but the quote is as follows:

    Agent J: What are you doing?
    Kevin Brown/K: I always do the driving.
    Agent J: Oh, no.
    Kevin Brown/K: I remember that.
    Agent J: No, you drive that old busted joint. I drive... the new hotness.
    [pointing at K]
    Agent J: Old and busted.
    [pointing at himself]
    Agent J: New hotness.

  15. Re:digital privacy is about databases on Combating Identity Theft · · Score: 1

    But think of the kids! What will under 21 college students do to buy beer? This will ruin college for the freshman/sophmore classes...

  16. Minimum Wage on Congressmen Condemn Companies for China Policies · · Score: 1

    If we are going to force companies to apply Freedom of Speech and other rights of America why not make them apply all of our laws like Minimum Wage laws....

  17. Re:Summary wrong, $20 not $200 on Microsoft Tricks Hacker Into Jail · · Score: 1

    Well when you live in Mom's basement you never have to touch the money, she always runs to the store for you

  18. Re:Anti-septic environments are dangerous on Keyboards Are Disgusting · · Score: 1

    I don't believe this. Well i mean, yeah they have a stronger immune system than city kids, but that isn't a valid measure of how often we get sick. Sometimes people say this and suggest that we shouldn't wash our hands cause then we get the germs and our immune system is stronger.

    It would be interesting to see a study on how often the city vs country get sick.

  21. Re:strong free speech implications on New Music Player to Spread Files Wirelessly · · Score: 1

    Um isn't that what a web forum is about... Someone states their point, then someone argues for or against that point? Actually isn't that what a lot of life is too?

  22. The Final Cut on Is There Such A Thing As A Final Cut? · · Score: 1

    My guess is no because even the Pink Floyd album The Final Cut was re-released/re-cut in 2004

  23. Re:Slow News Day on How Darwin Managed His Inbox · · Score: 1

    Wow... Someone actually did mod you insightful. People will do anything you tell them won't they?

    *someone email me your name, credit card number, expiration date and CVV*

  24. Forget about Taco for a second on Blizzard Made Me Change My Name · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Everyone, take a second to look past that the submitter is Taco...

    This article fits the requirement to be on slashdot even had it not happened to Taco.

    1.) It is about technology
    2.) It fits into the Games category
    3.) It is a legitimate technology concern as to what you can and cannot do on someone elses network
