  1. Re:transistor counts through the ages on Using GPUs For General-Purpose Computing · · Score: 1

    It's not the size if your transistors but what you do with them that counts.

  2. Re:oxymoron on What's Being Done About Nuclear Security · · Score: 1

    Never misunderestimate government intelligence I always say

  3. Re:let me be the first one to say on Pizza From the Command Line · · Score: 1
    Yeah, great, one step closer to being able to live your life totally on the computer.

    I mean computer geeks are socially isolated enough as it is, what is wrong with using the telephone and speaking to a live person?

  4. Re:Realmedia on NPR's Car Talk Dumping RealMedia · · Score: 1

    In contrast, Winamp show how it should be done

  5. Re:My experiance with d/l'ing music... on Steve Jobs and the State of Legal Music Downloads · · Score: 1
    Yes I had this problem myself a while ago. It occurs only when there is more than one copy of the file you want to download and they have different bitrates.

    To avoid screeching: before downloading click the little plus sign next to the song name. If each copy of the file is encoded with the same bit rate (e.g. 128) then it is safe to download and it will not screech. If there is more than one bit rate (e.g. 128 and 192) listed, it will screech.

  6. Re:Benefitting from a crime... on Recording Industry's Unexpected Benefit from P2P · · Score: 1

    Godwin's Law strikes again.

  7. Re:Try to read the article on Are Linux Zealots Terrorists? · · Score: 1
    Yes and his flawless logic is a credit to him:

    I've come to believe SCO will likely win its lawsuit -- because if the Zealots are lying about facts I know to be true, they must be lying about facts I don't know about.

  8. Re:In New Zealand... on For Americans, Imported Textbooks Can Be Cheaper · · Score: 1

    I also live in New Zealand. I bought a textbook for my information systems paper last semester from Amazon.co.uk and it cost NZ$72 including shipping, saving $20 compared with buying it from the local campus bookstore.

  9. The Real Question... on Google Tracking Frequent Users · · Score: 1
    Who will be the first person to clock it??

    But seriously folks... where do I post my high score?

  10. Re:The Google Counter... on Google Tracking Frequent Users · · Score: 5, Funny
    The counter was inspired by airline frequent flier programs, Ms. Mayer said.

    When I can cash in Google searches for free air travel... then I'll be impressed.

  11. Re:Well... on Hitchhiker's Guide Movie Greenlighted · · Score: 1
    From the article: The novel was previously adapted into a cheap-looking BBC series, which you can see on DVD and anticipate slightly better special effects for the new version.

    The BBC series was only as charming as it was because of the cheap (but great) special effects.

  12. Fools!! on Innocent File-Sharers Could Appear Guilty? · · Score: 1

    mlMac connects to the Kazaa and eDonkey networks on OSX.

  13. Another video on Amphibious Car Beats Urban Congestion · · Score: 3, Informative
