    You can't be identified by one of these devices.
    So how do I get my stuff back?
  2. And here I was hoping on Gene Therapy Turns Slackers Into Workaholics · · Score: 1

    That "Game Therapy Turns Slackers Into Workaholics".

  3. Re:Great line on SCO Linux Licenses Could Increase In Price · · Score: 1

    s/speed bump/wall

  4. Re:A weasel, indeed on BSA Asks Kids to Name Copyright Weasel · · Score: 1

    They even draw him evil. Or is he stoned?

  5. Re:Wrong. on Microsoft Admits Japanese Monopoly Battle Hurting Image · · Score: 2, Insightful

    This is not the type of defensive use grandparent was talking about. If they would only raise patent claims in response to patent claims that would be another matter.

  6. Re:Go Vs. Chess on Asian Origins Of Gaming Exhibited · · Score: 1

    Many Go players think that Chess steels all the publicity (how many Go stories have you seen on /.?) and potential Go players.

  7. Re:Go Vs. Chess on Asian Origins Of Gaming Exhibited · · Score: 1

    Why do all the Chess lovers frown upon Tic-Tac-Toe? :-D To mods: Funny, not flaimbait. I don't really thing that Go/Chess = Chess/TTT.

  8. Re:Go ... perhaps the best game ever. on Asian Origins Of Gaming Exhibited · · Score: 1

    This isn't a Chess story, so Go is fine here. I don't like to see Go plugs in Chess stories either.

  9. Re:freechess.org on Asian Origins Of Gaming Exhibited · · Score: 2, Informative
    And unlike in most stories that mention Chess Go isn't offtopic either...
  10. Re:Asia does not equal Orient on Asian Origins Of Gaming Exhibited · · Score: 1

    My mind knows geographics.

  11. Re:It's not the GUI ! on Apple vs. Microsoft Myths Revisited · · Score: 1

    I like my Gnome thank you very much. Also better mouse traps aren't built, they are breed from the best cats. :-D

  12. Informative on IBM Tells Employees To Hold Off WinXP SP2 · · Score: 5, Informative

    "Sexy Man" is not an moderation option.

  13. Re:More Slashdot Flamebait? on EM64T Xeon vs. Athlon 64 under Linux (AMD64) · · Score: 1

    Because they are not comparing to Intel. They are comparing to a 1000 MHz Thunderbird. It's not AMDs fault that Intel is stuck in the Thunderbird era...

  14. Re:What about scientific code? on EM64T Xeon vs. Athlon 64 under Linux (AMD64) · · Score: 1
    I am most interested in how fast my FORTRAN/C math-intensive code will run
    Look at the POV-Ray benchmark for math-intensive C/C++ code.
  15. Re:Intel vs. AMD, Linux vs. Microsoft, etc. on EM64T Xeon vs. Athlon 64 under Linux (AMD64) · · Score: 1

    And isn't even true. Athlon beats the Xeon in the POV-Ray benchmark, which is very FPU intensive.

  16. Re:And the standings are.... on MSIE 7 May Beat Longhorn Out The Gate · · Score: 1

    ...or links, or elinks, or w3m...

  17. Re:Darkened room = less need for this mod on Marine Finds Duct Tape on Mars · · Score: 1

    Carrots only cure blidness. You will need a Scroll of Light or a Wand of Light...

  18. Re:Upgrading using URPMI on Mandrakesoft Releases 10.1 Beta1 · · Score: 2, Informative

    Use easy urpmi to select cooker sources. You may also might to "rpm --import" the GPG signatures found in the cooker tree (I don't remember which directory). After that just "urpmi --auto-select".

    Seems to work quite good, but for some reason I can't intall galeon or epiphany.

  19. Re:Ahem..... ILOVEYOU on First Trojan for Windows CE Released · · Score: 1

    It was modded up, what do I get from your guarantee?

  20. Re:Amazon Reviews GONE! on The Saga of Katie.com · · Score: 1

    If they don't want to get involved they can stop selling the book. If they sell it they ARE involved.

  21. Re:.us namespace on The Saga of Katie.com · · Score: 1

    Why doesn't KT name her damn book katie.co.us?

  22. Re:This makes as much sense... on States Threaten P2P Companies · · Score: 1

    Nah, lets get together and shoot each other for the sake of it. Many have thought of this...

    Ink on Paper? How messy!
    Yes, inkjets blow. Powder on paper is much better. :-D
  25. Re:Makes no sense on The Saga of Katie.com · · Score: 1

    Blame it on the widespread use of the bastard term "intelectual property".
