  1. Re:Virii, worms and DRM ... on Sony's SunnComm DRM Patch a Security Risk · · Score: 1

    Bzzt... Wrong answer, no protection makes people stay aware, incomplete protection give people a false sense of security.

  2. Uhm... Make a backup... on Computer Jobs -- How to Resign Professionally? · · Score: 1

    Before handing in your resignation next time...

    Ah well, people learn by falling now and then...

  3. Re:Also Wonders on NYT Opinion Piece on DRM And P2P · · Score: 0

    How about actually work for a living (perform) instead of parasiting forever because you made some nice songs...

    Most other people have to work each day for their money too... really...

  4. Re:Wake up call for Microsoft on Antispyware Shootout · · Score: 1

    MS can easily fix the holes in their products in the first place, even without being scared to get sued by the companies that piggybacked on MS's hole with their anti holeware portfolio. It is not that these companies have the right to force anybody into writing buggy code so that they can sell their stuff.

    So it all comes down to plain disrespect for their clients, other software houses do their best to plug any security hole, MS buys a antispyware program instead. Why? because they see opertunity wrecking some competition instead of really helping their own customers base.

    Anyway, anybody that chooses for MS software in this time of age where all problems concerning their disrespect for their clients is so obvious, is a big idiot and deserve all the problems that come out of this.

    I am happy Linux user for years so I really do not care about MS's customers either.

  5. Re:I'll paraphrase the article for clarity: on Zone Alarm Vs 180 Solutions: Zango hooks? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    It shows that mods have no sense of humor at all in most cases...

  6. Re:Firefox security could be worse than IE on PCWorld Dubs Firefox Best Product of 2005 · · Score: 1

    The difference is that in Firefox the security problems stay into the application layer.
    With IE the security problems are in your system as a whole.

    So ultimately Firefox is always less vunrable than IE.

  7. Re:Those who undermine Open Source MUST be exclude on Free Software Foundation Begins Rewriting the GPL · · Score: 1

    I agree, forbidding anybody to use your source will have the wrong effect.
    The power of open is open, it hurts MS more if you let everybody use your software than if you exclude MS themselfs.

  8. Taliban? on The ESRB Gets An 'F' · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It looks that more and more Taliban-esqe lobbygroups and associations are getting momentum in the US, all these groups do the same thing, that is trying to pull as many rights as can from under the people. All this with cheap excuses as if kids* are in danger.

    *Fill in any other group that you can hyjack for your political purposes.

    The Taliban moved exactly the same way in Afganistan, slowly poisening society followed by a sudden coup, they also used exactly the same arguments as these right wing socalled christian groups in the US.

    More and more I feel for the sane half of the US population.

  9. Re:Windows lookalike? on KDE 3.5 Released · · Score: 1

    Better use Gnome in that case...

    That is what we mean with choice on Linux.

  10. Re:Front-page worthy? on Ports for Porn - Using Firewalls to Block Porn · · Score: 1

    Keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer, so yes it is important, even to the extend of being boring, that this is shown to the world.

  11. Grammar nazism... on Cray Co-Founder Joins Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Sorry couldn't leave it...

    Quote: "and they will still claim it has lower TCO then Linux!"

    "then" is time based comparison. "than" is a subject based comparison.

    So the proper usage is:

    "and they will still claim it has lower TCO than Linux!"

  12. Re:The Real Problem Here on Darwin Evolving Into A Tricky Exhibit · · Score: 1

    It proves that those people should loose all the benefits of darwinistic evolution.
    It proves that all those medication taken in the US is starting to take it's toll.
    It proves that the majority of people in the US is engaging into a mass hysteria.

    We know that the only truth is a process that behaves exactly the same under the same circomstances and input parameters, everything else is a uncertanty.

    But try to explain that to people with their fingers in their ears screaming LALALA I Can't hear you!!. I think one has a better chance explaining this to people with Down syndrom than to these Creationists types.

    Long live he flying spaghetty monster!

  14. If you kick somebodies leg... on Jack Thompson vs Amazon? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Then don't be surpriced to get kicked in the face.

    In other words, people as outspoken (disrespectfull) as Jack should not be surpriced to be called upon. He really think he can get away with saying thing that hurt people without retaliation?

    Wake up to the world Jack!!

  15. Re:configuring apache #1 complaint, still unaddres on Apache Comes With Too Much Community Overhead? · · Score: 1

    The config file is fine, how about learning how to use something before actual using it?
    It's not that there are no manuals and info.

  16. Re:A Suggestion on Sony May Sell HD-DVDs · · Score: 1

    Sorry for you, your mod was bought instead to designate you troll.

    I agree with your point, they bought anything else, why not ethics too?

  17. Re:Shit on HAARP Amping It Up · · Score: 1

    Conspiracy theorists are often right when looking back on things, often the reality turned out even worse than expected by the theorists.

    That is why the big US corps are in the queue to serve China with it's censoring... Not that I disagree with you that we are better of in the current situation on the internet.

  22. Re:How to boycott? on Bad Day To Be Sony · · Score: 1

    Bullshit, do you know how much Sony needs to earn each day to make sure they don't get eradicated?
    Every cent short for them is a problem, believe me... You are overestimating Sony and underestimate their ex clients.

  23. Re:Accurate Aliteration, Absolutely on Patent Pools and Pledges - Panacea or Placebo? · · Score: 1

    The duty of making a working model will cut 99% of the patent crap out there, nowadays people get away with patenting ideas instead of working applications.

  24. Accountability and economy... on IPv6 Still Hotly Debated · · Score: 1

    I think because ip v6 is too strict when it comes to accountability is what is keeping it from being popular. Why? because all processes including economies need a lubricant to keep this process running smoothly. Corruption is the economies lubricant, while too much make the economy slide into oblivian, too little will grind the economy into a standstill. The proper answer for a healthy economy is balance between corruption and accountability. Any law or technology that will disturb the balance either way will cause a disturbance in the force (all people making decisions where and how much to invest).

    My conclusion is that the majority of investors see a more or less balanced internet as it is now and are afraid to disturb that balance.

    Of course you can have your own opinion about this.
