  1. Re:Finally what we all need, on Science Videos Search Engine · · Score: 1

    My first thought was: Will intelligent design videos show up or not?

    Arguing for the sake of it are we?

  3. Re:Look on the bright side... on No iPhone For 64-Bit Windows · · Score: 1

    Would you buy a phone and worry about if it would work with your computer? ;D

    Can I make calls with this Nokia N95 using Win 98 SE on a P3 800MHz!?! I have winamp1!?

  4. Re:Ok. on FastTCP Commercialized Into An FTP Appliance · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It was the speed of TCP which would improve, not only FTP, I guess, so therefor whatever else uses TCP should get faster aswell, shouldn't it?

  5. I tried your page on People Trust Yahoo! and Google For the Brands · · Score: 1

    And it's obvious that Yahoo was the better one, just look at the results. Also MSN live never returns any hits? Something is wrong with your page? Beautiful and clean design, but is it really ok to take that background image? (It's from Vista isn't it?)

    I've tried, I've even registered here but no babes. Well I meet a girl but she wasn't sufficient ;D

  7. What if Google get to taste their own medicine? on Google Calls For More Limits On Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Ok, Google launches anti-trust claims vs Microsoft, but what if in the end when they more or less own the information market everyone starts to do the same against them?

    I guess it's ok for us, but for them? How would they feel to share their data / get split up / .. ?

  8. Re:"Will"? on Scientist Calls Mars a Terraforming Target · · Score: 1

    So now all that is needed is a pair of tractor beams?

  9. Re:"Will"? on Scientist Calls Mars a Terraforming Target · · Score: 1

    Seriously, that idea seems rather good, wouldn't it be much easier for us to just make some sort of "iron lunge" which just split up the oxygen and carbon again and then had our body reuse the oxygen? Sounds easier than creating atmospheres on all planets out there.

  10. Re:Just Another Manic Monday... on Nintendo's Market Value Briefly Tops Sony's · · Score: 1

    2) So buy gamecube games, they use the gamecube controller which is very convenient and there probably exist plenty of games which your son can handle.

  11. Not to forget NGC (and NDS) games... on Nintendo's Market Value Briefly Tops Sony's · · Score: 1

    Also since it can play gamecube games for the people who already haven't owned a gamecube, and I guess that are plenty, there are quite a few titles for the gamecube out there aswell. Some RPGs (Baten Kaitos, err.. damn I suck at names :D, oh well, there are a few which seems nice anyway), both metroids, smash football, paper mario thousand years door, uhm, and probably more ;/.

    Thought I guess the best consoles to own right now is the PS2 and the DS since both are cheaps and have lots of games. Personally I will wait with the Wii until it's cheaper, and I might get a PS3 aswell when it is much cheaper.

  12. Re:Do one thing on Nintendo's Market Value Briefly Tops Sony's · · Score: 1

    That's ok because in Nintendos case they do consoles, games and pokémon (games, consoles, toys, furry animals, series, movies, ...)

  13. Re:The U.S. has gone completely mad... on Michael Moore's New Film Leaked To BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    Same thing have happened in Russia now. There was a TV program yesterday about Jeltsin and how he had big ideas of fighting the communist party and make russia a "free democracy", but for whatever the reason was he needed money to win some election so he got them from he rich people in Russia whatever they was called (something on O). This ultimately keeped him as president and the communist party is no more a threat to the dreams he had, but instead of a democracy he got corrupt capitalism since the rich people decides more or less everything and got the rights to buy the large communism factories and so on.

    Or something like that, I don't remember it that good, I don't have very good historical knowledge and english isn't my native language. I guess someone else can fill me in =P

    Uhm, so the 4 pci-express x16 slots isn't really x16 or what? Because if they are how can the chipset be low on pci-express lanes? Sounds like there are plenty?

  23. Re:Are you sure about your data? on Apple Confirms No (Default) ZFS In Leopard · · Score: 1

    It was there in the betas, atleast according to screenshots. Anyway it's still there but as read-only so the issue are probably just that Apple haven't been able to port it all over and make it work yet, so no ZFS in Leopard. It's not an issue with Schwartz saying it would be there.

  24. Re:Haven't you learned anything Sun? on Apple Confirms No (Default) ZFS In Leopard · · Score: 1

    You don't know how correct you are. A guy I talked to bought a quad core G5 16 months ago and now he was upset that EAs mac games would be Intel only because they used Transgaming Cider. And other applications where going Intel only aswell.

    Sure his machine are PPC, but it's not outdated, and already some companies/individual developers are leaving it.

    If you are a company who bought thousand of Pro macs with quad core G5s just to see Apple switch to Intel and the developer of whatever program you used left you I'm sure you would be quite upset.

  25. Apple are lame on Apple Confirms No (Default) ZFS In Leopard · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Considering there will only be read-only support of ZFS now I doubt it was as much as Steve Jobs beeing upset on Schwartz as it was Apple not beeing done with porting and getting ZFS to run which was the problem.
