  1. Slashdot is the matrix on Second Hand Hard Discs Reveal Secrets · · Score: 1

    And duplicate articles are the black cat.
    Something has 'changed' - watch out guys!

  2. I seem to have this dilemma with palmtops on Garmin Palm Device With GPS · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They are always good in one area, but in another area I need it is skimped upon or left out. This is a pest because it would be incredibly handy to have one for my work but I cann't bring myself to waste money on something inadiquite.
    Perhaps my problem is I just don't have enough money to spend on a whizz-bang one. Ah. Thats it.

  3. May it set a prescedent... on Nvidia Talks About Next-Gen Geforce, Plus Pics · · Score: 1

    Manufacturers may start to think that peripherals that take two slots are 'OK'.
    With cards of this nature it may be necessary to have a powerful active cooler, but in smaller cases this sort of design would either be incredibly cramped or not fit at all. Heres hoping that by the time it hits the consumer market the cooler is a little smaller.

  4. Re:Cool video on UFO Evidence From SOHO Satellite · · Score: 1

    A UFO analysis published on none other than a UFO website - already treading on thin water. Also, they have not put any effort into making the stealth bomber integrate into the picture, it looks like they have literally just, to use their words, 'dropped it in' with no thought.

  5. Re:The wonders of a little googling... on UFO Evidence From SOHO Satellite · · Score: 1

    That zetatalk thing..... surely its a joke. Please let it be a joke. I also had to unscrew my head, mind.

  6. Its like the Raelian claims... on UFO Evidence From SOHO Satellite · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They claim first and prove 'later'. The first group which comes straight out and gives the evidence without some bullshit pseudo-hype before it should be given the publicity they deserve.

    I wonder if this conference will be delayed because of.... a power failure brought on by UFO interferance? Or perhaps they will announce their leader has been abducted and given a probe up the rear end.

  7. Re:image filename: Disney.jpg?? on UFO Evidence From SOHO Satellite · · Score: 1

    Oh dear.. It actually is. Whatever pseudo-trust I had of this site (ie: they took their work 'seriously') is now gone. Must be a slow news day in the realms of /. towers.

  8. As scientifically reliable as this report may be.. on UFO Evidence From SOHO Satellite · · Score: 1

    A html page with its as New Page 3 has got to be taken with a pinch of salt.

    More seriously, who says that these 'new' images arn't straight out of photoshop.

  9. Re:Just DOS on Multi-vendor Game Server (GameSpy) DDoS Attack · · Score: 1

    And you know what. I got my sums wrong. There is a finite responce for 128Kbps of 5,600KB. I applied the formula to an upload rate of 1400KB/s upload.

    My apologies

    If a user sends out packets to, say, 100 servers you get ~100 times the number of packets. So long as the user can reliably output the small request packet to each server the 400 times responce factor still applies.

    Say you are requesting at 14KB/s. Per server, at a 400 times rate, this is is 5,600KB/s. Do this to 100 servers and bam, you have ~546mb coming at you per second. This from a standard 128Kb/s upload cable service. Think of the possibilities
