  1. Re:why another browser. on AOL Releases Netscape Beta, Based on Firefox · · Score: 1

    It's not as though it's a new rendering engine, if you're developing for the web you should already be testing in Gecko based browsers and in IE.

    I don't see the problem.

    Called the what?

  3. Re:Answer: Micro$oft is still #1 in the market. on AOL Builds New IE-Based Browser · · Score: 1

    Sure a big name backing the Mozilla project would be good, except that IBM won't be shipping Firefox bundled with the OS on practically every computer sold to consumers.

    Go into the Trash, click "All" beside the word "Select," click the "Delete Forever" button.

    The BOINC platform (that seti@home is switching over to) has the ability to divide work between project as you suggest. Though I'm not really sure that there are very many other projects running on it.

  12. Re:Good Days Already Gone on BitTorrent's Creator Bram Cohen Interviewed · · Score: 1

    At the university of toronto (where I am), it is limited.

    During the day they do traffic shaping on the port used for BT, eDonkey and Kazaa, allowing 256 kbps in and out. After midnight and on weekends it loosens up to 10 Mbps in and 2 Mbps out. It's not so bad once you get used to starting up your torrents before you go to sleep :\

  22. uh, why the excitement? on 3D File Manager on Linux Wins NSF Prize · · Score: 5, Insightful

    i don't see the big hubbub... this is an illustration prize. no one said this is a useful or even remotely useable filemanager. The screen snapshot the team submitted from the program is "visually striking," says panel of judges member Boyce Rensberger. the judging was on how their screenshot looked as far as i can tell. the runners up were a watercolor painting of a macrophage and the cover of a book. whoopee, a pretty filemanager.

  23. whats wrong with that? on Truck Dismount One-Ups Stair Dismount · · Score: 1

    Perhaps the poster meant that nearly all of the people who encounter the game enjoyed it thoroughly, rather than many people encountered it. I find nothing strange about the statement.
