  1. DNA on Iceman Otzi was a Fighter · · Score: 2, Insightful
    The article really shows the advancement in DNA technology since he was discovered. And with the mountain pass melting the way it is, we'll have an archaeologists' field day!

    But at least that's better than going off looking for a Yeti!

  2. Obligatory Sillyness on SCO Execs Dumping Stock · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I wonder if Martha Stewart will give them advice about insider trading...

  3. Re:shutdown /a on Win32 Blaster Worm is on the Rise · · Score: 1
    I'm at work right now, and people are rebooting all over the place. When suggesting we could put the patch on, I was told that our corporate office would prefer that we wait until they tell us they're going to fix the problem.

    That's bunk. I'm going to install the patch. I don't feel like losing an afternoon's worth of work!

  4. Good For Geeks-In-Training on Linux and the Unix Philosophy · · Score: 1

    This sounds like an awesome read, especially should be considered by the "geeks-in-training". Someone who has friends into *nix, hears them raving about it, but doesn't completely understand why. I've been involved with the computing community for a long time, and even consider myself a geek, but when it comes right down to the real nitty-gritty of why Linux is A Good Thing(tm), I don't know that much (other than a cute mascot).

  5. Re:Bye Bye, domestic workforce on Linux Gaining Ground In India · · Score: 3, Interesting

    That's interesting, because when I was working for Amazon.com, it was a known fact that they had a tech outsourcing in India just so they could fire those people instead of the people working in the American customer service centers when mistakes were made.

  6. Re:Geek Priorities on Rio Announces Networked Ogg Vorbis Player · · Score: 1

    I live in North Dakota, where the wages suck, but the rent is cheap! My apartment is a 2-bedroom... of course, even here, you get what you pay for...

  7. Geek Priorities on Rio Announces Networked Ogg Vorbis Player · · Score: 1

    You know you have your priorities straight when you buy a geek toy that's more than your rent!
