  1. Re:This guy is a moron on Security for the Paranoid · · Score: 0

    I have *all* of my holes closed, thank you. =P

  2. Re:Enlarged pictures on FCC Pics of the IBM ThinkPad X41 Tablet PC · · Score: 2, Funny


    That's because that guy has reaaaaaaaally big thumbs. So you can see no improvement in the full-size picture.

  3. Re:So, what does Penguin taste like? on Linux Cookbook · · Score: 0


    I once read in a magazine, about an experiment with food and perception.
    Subjects were told to eat food with unusual colors, like blue chicken and a lot of crazy combinations. The food were prepared not by chefs, but by regular good-cooking people, and still, several of the subjects who weren't reluctant to actually eat the meals, throwed up later.

    So, assuming that was true, I guess color has something to do with taste after all... except for blind people.. i guess... whatever...

    So! until next week...

  4. Re:Insurance or something? on Retail Theft Detectors and False Alarms? · · Score: 0

    I woulda sticked it to a one of those security detectors, hiddeh preferably, so they can't turn off the alarm. :D

    Most good sticky names derive from the silliest things.

    True. Like AT&T (a titi)!!!

  7. Re:well I've always wondered this on Cooler Servers or Cooler Rooms? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Duplication is nice in some respects, more redundancy is a big plus.

    definitely. More redundancy is more redundant.

    What?!

    Oh god... PLEASE tell me Bonzy Buddy good!!!

    You gotta have a big desk.

  11. Re:You must be the only one on Blockbuster Settles No Late Fee Suit · · Score: 1

    Lawsuits like this are disappointing. Yet another example of people believing that the law should protect themselves from their own idiocy.

    Leave me alone or i'll suit you. =P

    I think they're going to start using scientific notation for those numbers. :)

  18. Re:One Word on What Makes a Good UI? · · Score: 1

    That's why is still in beta... :)

    If the application serves a specific purpose, then it should make easy for the user to use for *that* purpose.
    Other 'features' may be available, but not as intuitive or easy to use as the main ones...

  19. Trademark? on David & Goliath: game.co.uk vs. GAME Group, PLC · · Score: 1

    I know I haven't RTFA, but still,
    How can you trademark a generic english word like "game" and try to enforce it?

    It would be like banning the word from being used anywhere else... hell, they are doing it with that domain name... "That word is mine!".

    'Wardriver' is war-driver or is it ward-river?

    And in any case, what does it mean?

  24. My favorite quote on Microsoft Not Worried about FireFox · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ...a lot of conflicting requests around: 'Hey, give me tabs right now' versus 'I want stability, I want a platform that won't break...

    So, they can't innovate or add new features without unstabilizing the whole thing....

    That's like recognizing that your product isn't that versatile or manageable...

  25. Re:All of this is unnecessary…. on Stopping Adware and Spyware on Windows w/ Citrix? · · Score: 1

    True.

    At least in my company, not giving the average-corporate-user admin rights works wonders.

    I know it's not the ultimate solution, but it helps a lot to keep the playground a lil' safer.
