  1. Re:It still doesn't run on my computer on Firefox 3 Performance Gets a Boost · · Score: 1

    I had a problem like this, more than likely it's an extension that does not "really" work with FF3. Disable all of them in FF2, then open FF3. It probably won't crash.

  2. How about... on Microsoft Confirms IE8 Has 3 Render Modes · · Score: 1
    How about putting this tag in your code:

    <!--[if IE]><a href="http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/">Go Get a Standards Compliment Browser</a><![endif]-->
  3. Re:Any way to... on NSI Registers Every Domain Checked · · Score: -1, Troll

    I have got access to 2 full Class B's of public IP space you either have or you got, but you never have got.
  4. Re:Minnesota also on California Joins Open Document Bandwagon · · Score: 1

    It just makes me feel warm and fuzzy to know that this is happening... now lets see how the government sways which open format is the most widely used.

  5. One True Format on Microsoft Blasts IBM Over XML Standards · · Score: 5, Insightful

    After reading the Open letter, it's very clear that Microsoft claims IBM's want to stop Open XML stems from their ODF format making it through the standards group first and being adopted. MS claims that people should be able to choose their open standards...

    Call me crazy but having two different standards doesn't really capture the idea of having Standards at all. I thought the point of standards was to make it so we (the developers) only have to implement one thing. I can fully understand IBM's reasoning here. The only thing it seems MS wants to do is create more vendor lock.

  6. Re:Practice...Practice...Practice on Self-Parking Cars Coming To U.S. · · Score: 1

    You know it's not profit when you are not spending money. It's profit when you make money (i.e. someone paid you not to park in the garage)... so in this case you saved $3000 to use otherwise.

  7. Re:Thoughts on Living In Oblivion · · Score: 1

    Try enchanting a bow that knocks him down resistance wise, like -100 fire for 30 secs, you'll find you magic will then work really well.

  8. Re:Uh.. story link? on In Defense of FFXII · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'm going to have to agree, the reason I enjoyed the old FF games was due to them dealing more with your attack stratagem. Not just setting the strategy, and running around.

  9. Re:Sony? why? on Should You Wait For The PS3? · · Score: 1

    I was actually thinking in the world of gaming. They did give me Direct-X, and pushed the gaming market in good ways, by forcing top dog Sony onto shaky ground since they now have a competitor, now only if MS would start diversifying the games. I am growing tired of action, and FPS.

  10. Sony? why? on Should You Wait For The PS3? · · Score: 0, Troll

    Are we lucky enough to get our own rootkit with the PS3 as well? I'm so tired of Sony and every let down they have for me. I certainly don't like MS, but well, hey at least in this regard they have always given me what I want.

  11. Age of XML on Company Claims Patent Over XML · · Score: 2, Interesting
    these patents, one of which was applied for in 1997
    from whois for xml.com
    Record created on 30-Sep-1996.
  12. Pay on Organizational Practices of an IT Department? · · Score: 2, Funny

    Psy us, the IT workers out there, whatever we ask for. For fear that all your systems shall come to a grinding halt, and us in the back room having a party.

  13. Re:I am completely unbiased... on PHP Succeeding Where Java Has Failed · · Score: 1

    Go PHP!!!

  14. What's the point? on Peeking at Netscape 8 · · Score: 5, Interesting

    If I have windows I have IE(no choices here), if I want netscape rendering I have Firefox/Mozilla. Getting a bloated version of mozilla to replace essentially mozilla seems a little silly.

    Having a dual rendering based browser just doesn't make any sence.

  15. More Money for M$ on Halo Movie Script in the Works · · Score: 1

    Not that I'd want to give them more money, but I'll mostly go see this movie. If it flops I'll feel good walking out of the theatre knowing that they wasted their money, and if it's good, well at least I saw a good movie, right?

  16. are you sure? on This Call May Be Monitored ... · · Score: 1

    lies, lies, all of them lies. No one listens to me, I'm sure of it.

  17. You want proof of concept? on Gigabit Transfer Rates Over Power Lines? · · Score: 1

    http://www.current.net 1) does not interfear with HAM radio. 2) Is being deplyed as we speak. 3) has speeds comparible if not faster than Cable/DSL.

  18. Re:Paying for "Oakley" not MP3 player on Digital Music Eyewear From Oakley · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Take a good look at these sunglasses, they're hidious, why would anyone pay hundreds of dollars for something so ugly.... Second thought, people buy stupid expensive things all the time. nevermind.
