  5. Complete definition... on Update on Aborted ISS Spacewalk · · Score: 2, Informative

    This is a spacewalk.

  6. How many... on Senate Unanimously Passes Anti-Camcorder Bill · · Score: 2, Insightful

    How many years would I get if I physically broke into the theatre and started attacking the manager with a baseball bat? Less then 10 years I assure you.

  7. Mac and Linux on Beastie Boys' New Album Silently Installs DRM Code · · Score: 2, Funny

    Is my understanding right that it is only a Windows program? I use both MacOS and several Linux distros and I am exteremly offended they didn't make it compatible with the platforms I feel comfortable using!

  8. Yeah but... on Sony To Ship Enhanced PSX Console/DVR Combo · · Score: 1

    Does it run Linux like Microsoft's gaming console?!

  9. Umm.... on v1.0 of HD-DVD Physical Specs Approved · · Score: 1

    HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF TRANSCODING!!! You can easily convert it into the same video people share on P2P now! I can't believe this guy got modded insightful! Have you ever heard of DIVX or XVID?!

  10. The reason this person is right... on Government-Funded GPL Software · · Score: 1

    The reason this person is right that the government should not GPL their software but use and contribute to only public domain software is because it can also help businesses who rely on software to make money. And this would boost the economy. Personally I think having the government use the BSD license or public domain is because in can then in turn go into non-free as well as free software, which is much helpful to a capitalist economy.

  11. BSD isn't dead just taken a new form... on FreeBSD: Not Exactly Dead · · Score: 1

    http://lainos.sourceforge.net/index.php

    A new OS inspired by Serial Experiments Lain built ontop of BSD...Interesting

  12. Never said on Windows Users Fear Korgo Virus · · Score: 1

    It crashes yes but doesn't disrupt the other running processes and does not go to a blue screen. It only brings up a small program crash window.

  13. BSOD Legend... on Windows Users Fear Korgo Virus · · Score: 1

    Everyone is always talking about blue screening but I have had an XP Pro box for more then 3 years. I HAVE NOT SEEN A BLUE SCREEN DURING THESE PAST THREE YEARS!!! I build and repair many of my neighbors computers constantly and have never seen an XP box BSOD. The reason I don't see them is simple...Windows XP does not blue screen like the Win9X used to do. Simple as that. People are keeping this alive for as long as possible just to have a reason to make fun of Microsoft. Please just give it a rest!

  14. Impossible on First All-Artificial Feature Film Released · · Score: 1

    The very fact that the AI would be created by humans would mean that there is a degree of human involvement.

  15. People are confused on First All-Artificial Feature Film Released · · Score: 5, Informative

    Most of the posts so far are pointing out that because it was not made by AI it is not a completely artificial movie. What they are trying to say is that it is the first completely artificial movie product(basically when you see the movie there aren't any real traces of human actors/voiceactors).

  16. Hello! I'm earth have we met? on AMD's Socket 939, Athlon 64 FX-54 amd 64 3800+ · · Score: 1

    Ever tried to run a AMD proc in a PC with the heatsink off? It shuts down immediately. It's not just going to fry and melt into a money wasting puddle.

  17. Why do people complain about gas prices!!! on Brew Your Own Auto Fuel For 41 Cents A Gallon · · Score: 1

    Here is a nice little experiment for you: Next time you go to the gas station check the price of gas and then compare it to the price of a bottle of water. I have so far tried this at several gas stations and have concluded that bottled water per galon is ATLEAST twice as expensive as gasoline(87 octane). When are peope going to look for "alternate" hydration methods besides water!

  18. It does provide security somewhat on CNN Notices that WiFi is Insecure · · Score: 1

    Just like having a lock on your front door. It is extremely easy to pick a pin-tumbler lock in less then a minute, but why would you waste your time when some people leave theirs unlocked in the first place.

  19. Exactly on Sun Says Hardware Will Be Free · · Score: 1

    Kind of like how gaming consoles(XBOX) are supposed to be, but Linux still exists on the platform. Although I admit it might not be entirely legal.

  20. History of Prime #s on New Largest Prime Found: Over 7 Million Digits · · Score: 2, Informative

  22. Yeah it would seem like windows fault.... on Fedora Core 2 Dud or Dodo? · · Score: 1

    BUT!!! No other distro I have ever tried has this problem!!!

  23. How long... on Online Plagiarist Sues University · · Score: 1

    How long before someone writes a program that uses random key strokes and clicks to rearrange the words and sentence structure of a paper using a thesaurus and some smart programming, so that it is impossible to discover where the work came from.

  24. Dang! on The World's Most Dangerous Password · · Score: 1

    If I would have known this earlier I would have been able to complete Metal Gear Solid in under an hour!!!

  25. WTF? on Ruling Clears Way For Lindows Trial · · Score: 1

    "dows" is to Windows and Lindows
