  1. Xbox publicity on Random Humor · · Score: 1

    Anyone had guys dressed a bit like that walking around in their city? I live in Montreal, and a month before the Xbox was released, you had tons of guys dressed a bit like that, with an LCD on their head, an Xbox + batteries in their backpack, walking around downtown and showing in game demos of a few games.. It was pretty cool, too bad I didn't have my camera with me...

  2. I would post a First you know what.. on Linus Torvalds about SCO, IP, MS and Transmeta · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    But some troll probably has a copyright on that kind of messages...

  3. Re:Not What 802.11b is for on External Antennas for Tungsten C Handhelds? · · Score: 1

    Yuck ! Get a T68i and a Tungsten T maybe, but a crappy Tungsten W ? Never!

  4. Re:Don't buy shit? on Cooling your Access Point? · · Score: 1

    Then explain to me why they have "feet" to stack them together ?

  5. Re:Don't buy shit? on Cooling your Access Point? · · Score: 1

    If I stack my crappy linksys 8ports switch over my crappy Linksys AP, you can be sure at least one of them will "crash" because of the heat..

  6. Re:I liked this part on Bill Gates On Linux · · Score: 1

    I work for Canada's biggest bank, and unfortunately, even though we are an all IBM shop (Mainframes, desktops, laptops, everything...) , NT4 is used on desktops and has been for the last few years... Will soon upgrade to 2000..

  7. Re:"I love Debian, but ..." on Debian And The Rise of Linux · · Score: 1

    I've been using Gentoo since pre 1.0 days.. I love it, but until recently I wouldn't consider using it on a commercial server simply because recompiling SSH or Apache or whatever because of security updates might just be a bit too long.. With Debian it'd be pretty fast..

  8. Re:Defrag? on Windows Tech Writer Looks at Linux · · Score: 1

    They possibly ran something like Partition Magic since I'm sure he didn't have unpartitionned space... And well, I always defrag before doing that, even though it might be useless, it helps me feel a bit less scared..

  9. Only one statement..? on FSF Statement on SCO vs. IBM · · Score: 0

    For some reason, I thought he wrote two of them ! I wonder why...

  10. Re:Just Curious on Microsoft Releases SP4 for Windows 2000 · · Score: 4, Funny

    Once, I had 24days of uptime on Windows 95. That's why I prefer it to Linux, it doesn't take years before you can brag about your uptime !

  11. Re:This just proves that it's NOT about money. on RIAA To Sue Hundreds Of File Swappers · · Score: 1

    Very good idea...

  12. Re:This just proves that it's NOT about money. on RIAA To Sue Hundreds Of File Swappers · · Score: 1

    One could claim the bits are just a string of 0s and 1s..why would it be forbidden to upload some special strings just because, as an mp3, it sounds like some commercial song? One of my friends says that all the time. It annoys me so /()"*)/(!* much.

  13. Let's get it out of the way... on MandrakeClustering Shows Off At ISC2003 · · Score: 1, Funny

    Imagine a Beowulf cluster of these ! I'd kick your ass at quake with one !

  14. Re:Who needs apps, my Gnome desktop r0x0rz on (When) Will Linux Pass Apple On The Desktop? · · Score: 1

    I'm not saying I prefer Linux to OS X, cause I don't like flamewars too much, but I *WAY* prefer mplayer to microsoft media player. Matter of preference I'd say.

  15. Re:How about.. on MSN Planning to Take on Google? · · Score: 1

    That should be modded as funny, not insightful !!

  16. Re:h2k2 forum on Kismet on Mac OS X · · Score: 1

    He's gonna be a host at Defcon this year, if I'm not mistaken...

  17. Re:Kismac? on Kismet on Mac OS X · · Score: 2, Informative

    Kismet can do Distributed sniffing, it can sniff with many cards at the same time, each sniffing and hopping between different channel (let's say one card locked on chan 6, the other card sniffing on the rest), and has many powerful features that I'm not sure KisMAC has..

  18. Re:But does it... on KnoppiXMAME 1.0 Released · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The install it on your computer and be done with it? I don't see any reasons to use the CD other than the convenience of popping it into any machine..

  20. Re:Precarious? on Palm OS Wristwatch · · Score: 1

    That's why I own a Marchese Di Genin Andromeda... Tungsten powered ! The Spaceman 2000 one is almost all tungsten. Apart from lil' scratches on the side of the band, it still looks brand new! BLING BLING!

  21. Re:Ah, the memories... on Hydrodemolition Robot Crushes With Water · · Score: 1

  25. Re:Fiddy Cent ringtones??? on Declaring War on Mobile Phone Spam · · Score: 1

    I use the Ericsson "Mixed" Ringtone. It's actually three ringtones on top of each other. The "high" one, the "mid" one, and the "low" one. So it sounds like "teerrererWEEEdeee", and I can hear it in pretty much any situation!
