  1. Re:Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor doesn't run on Li on Microsoft Releases Vista Hardware Requirements · · Score: 1

    You could always upgrade to FreeBSD. *ducks*

    (not so) Gentlemen, start your flamewars!

  2. Re:I can translate that for you. on Trojan Deletes Your Porn, Music & Warez · · Score: 1

    It's not so much the sarcasm, but I just couldn't comprehend the grammar of that sentence. I had an idea what he meant, but I just couldn't read that in there. :-)

  3. Translation please.. on Trojan Deletes Your Porn, Music & Warez · · Score: 4, Insightful

    remarkably few things infect the text files this trojan also deletes.

    Ehmm... What?

  4. Re:OpenVPN behind a NAT? on VPN Solutions for Small/Medium Businesses? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I have set up a new firewall at home last weekend using FreeBSD, PF, and OpenVPN. I haven't used PF and OpenVPN before and it took maybe one afternoon to set it all up so it's not that hard. (no, not a simple home version, but one involving crossing a firewall at work, and on my side separate networks for internal, dmz, and wireless) I'd say give it a shot and just build two test machines, especially because you can monitor realtime what PF is doing by using tcpdump on the pflog0 interface.

  5. Re:How is this different than... on Apple Releases Bonjour for Windows 1.0.3 · · Score: 4, Funny

    So the difference with Windows is that it only installs a light form of spyware?

    Yes, behold the beauty of the power of open source. Bugs get fixed quickly, even bugs that deal with virusses.

    I prefer to keep my contacts in a .xxx domain.

    Looks like many are already avoiding this place. The number of comments with each story posted today is dropping.

  10. Re:First thoughts on Windows Vista 5342 Screenshots · · Score: 1

    I've looked for it, but I never found a powertoy for virtual desktops from MS for Windows 2000. The one for XP didn't even do what I was used to have with KDE.
    One thing that comes as close as possible to real virtual desktops is Virtual Dimension, which I've been using now with Windows 2000 and XP. (another is the shareware goScreen)

    Sounds like you're trying to sell the ultimate Dell game pc.

    I feel they should be barred from this planet...

  17. Re:No Viable Visio Alternative on Novell Suggests Linux Program Replacements · · Score: 1

    What about Kivio from Koffice?

  18. Re:Devices on Intel and Skype Exclude AMD · · Score: 1

    The hype is just fluff, but the difference is that AMD made ALL 32 bit procs look bad then, and not only those from Intel, whereas Intel cripples comparable dual cpu's from AMD as well as single core cpu's.

  19. Re:Devices on Intel and Skype Exclude AMD · · Score: 1

    All I see on the Crytek site is a deal to get it running on Windows XP 64 bit edition, nothing is being said about AMD only support.

    btw, "illegal music piracy"? O.o;

  20. Re:The most important lesson of time management on Time Management for System Administrators · · Score: 1

    Thinking about it, that may be part of the reason I love computers so much. You tell them to be something new, and they are. Instantly.

  21. Re:Of course they do ... on Does Your Employer Ban Skype? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    would far rather throw truck loads of money at AT&T

    This is exactly the reason we're banning Skype because it takes up Way too much bandwidth. The largest company is using it and they say it saves them a lot of money on phone bills, but thanks to them we spend all those savings on data communication lines.
    Skype can save money, but only if it's more than what you need to pay for increased bandwidth.

    Congratulations, you just explained how big a pain in the ass a slashdotting is to a webserver.

  24. Re:Malicious hackers around the world... on KDE Heap Overflow Vulnerability Found · · Score: 1

    I use it all the time with one or two exceptions, for which I use Firefox.
    I haven't had any problem with websites from 3.2 or 3.3 on. I've gotten so used to Konqueror that using Firefox seemed weird. :-)

    Corporate version also needs IE. I've rolled out client 10 two days ago and half the machines were refused for not having an up-to-date IE.
