  1. Re:Why would you use Safari anyway? on Safari 4's Messy Trail · · Score: 1

    There are the first Chromium snapshots available.

    Webkit as we love it. Rough but usable. No Plugins so far, that also means no Flash (I'll count that as a feature 90% of the time). Speed - don't know, sites are just there. But here comes the boomer: it's the first (modern) browser that doesn't eat my frakking RAM like there's no tomorrow and makes the whole machine feel sluggish after two hours of extensive web browsing.

  2. You don't need to call osascript in Terminal on Mac OS X Root Escalation Through AppleScript · · Score: 1

    if you are in Script Editor (AppleScript) already.

    Nice try script kiddie. ;)

  3. Re:Investigation flawed, more like on OS X Leopard Firewall Flawed · · Score: 1

    Since Leopard ships with cryptographically-signed binaries/packages, I guess I'm not seeing the problem
    But signed does not mean flawless (i.e. not exploitable).
  4. Siemens allready sold their mobile division on Nokia & Siemens To Merge Network Business · · Score: 1
  5. Good question. on Critical Security Hole Found in Diebold Machines · · Score: 1

    In my opinion everyone with a decent school education (or even without) should be able to overview (and even hold) an election. You can do this with pen and paper, but not with a complex black box. So we help 5% of the population to vote by locking out 100% (minus 5 diebold engineers) when it comes do counting the votes.

  6. Re:Why isn't Secunia Being Flamed Here on Mac OS X Struck By Severe Security Hole · · Score: 3, Informative

    Because this was reported by Heise via Michael Lehm via mac-tv.

  7. Tried to download it and must say on First Episode of NerdTV Released · · Score: 1, Insightful

    you get what you paid for.

  8. Re:lawsuits!! on Apple Releases Multi-Button "Mighty Mouse" · · Score: 1

    At the bottom of the apple page it says: Mighty Mouse © Viacom International Inc. All Rights Reserved. So I think they are aware of it.

  9. ... and not on Camino. on Major Browsers Have JS Pop-Up Flaw · · Score: 1

    Due to sheets you can clearly see the window the JavaScript dialog belongs to.

  10. Bought a VRC this year on Reports of VHS's Death Highly Exaggerated · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Bought a VRC this year. It has a death simple UI, no RTFM required. The hardware and medium is cheap. You can buy VHS cassettes nearly everywhere. No format war, no DRM, highly interchangeable. Quality is not the best, but that doesn't bother me at all, because my cable network is analog too.

  11. Don't mind on The Screen Savers Reunited · · Score: 1

    It is no podcast - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podcast - or can someone point to an rss feed to subscribe?

  12. Re:Thank God... on Trey Parker and Matt Stone Save Enterprise · · Score: 1

    I was very disappointed about Atlantis. Save the day in the last minute and closed ministories in each episode. That is lame. Even STE did this better in the last two series.

  13. VLIW is very impressive. on A History of PowerPC · · Score: 2, Informative

    In the dsp range vliw gets more attention. Take the TI C6000 serie for example. Pure VLIW (8 instruction/cycle for the 8 exec-units) Risc (dedicated load-store arch. etc.) with no pipeline interlock and a very short pipelines you have impressive performance at low cycles/s. In addition you have the advantace off compile ones and have a dedicatet behavior at runtime. Unlike cisc cpus which have to rearange the instructions at runtime you can (if you want) literaly move at compile time any the assembler instruction to the cycle/exec.-unit you want at runtime. Schlaefer i'm sorry for my poor engl.

  14. That wood be a fine on Windows Could Lose Media Player in Europe? · · Score: 1

    After the next anti monopoly trial: Buy Longhorn and get tons of cigarettes for free. Now with marlboro and lucky, too. Great!

  15. Tie Fighter, best "tactical" flight sim ever? on Sam & Max Sequel Canceled · · Score: 1

    With the ability to order other ships or have complex (sub)missions with critical timing.

    Red squadron leader and right hand of the emperor. Yeah!
