  1. Show that they is nothing new about Microsoft on Microsoft PDC Journal · · Score: 1

    The journal shows there is nothing new about Microsoft. They are still up to thier old tricks. Recreating technology when there no need to recreate it. Granted there was some things I saw in the report that was good and felt that there was a plus about but nothing that I see that will benefit me.

  5. Well the ISP should have the right to know on ACLU Files For Carnivore Info · · Score: 1

    The ISP's should have the right to know what the the FBI is putting their systems. I would want to know exactly what information it is taking the amount of bandwidth it is going to from me. All that stuff I would demand to know before I put it on my network. The source would be great so I know how I can work around it if it gave me problems

    The sad thing about these storms they are like hurricanes you can predict them. Yet you can not know the damage they will do untill they hit. So the only thing you can is prepare yourself like it is a hurricane for this thing. It is time to pull out your propane stove.

  11. This helps linux in Gaming and Film industry on Kaydara Announces FiLMBOX Support For Linux · · Score: 1

    With more software like this more people will use linux for Gaming and Film production environments. This will also create a better support for Video Cards so I hope more annoucements like happen so we can see a higher depand for linux video drivers

  12. Netscape will rise agian on Microsoft's IE 5.5 Flouts Industry Standards · · Score: 1

  13. How would they stop it from outside countries. on Australia To Consider Licensing Streamed Content · · Score: 1

    How can they regulate it if the company streaming is out of the country? mp3.com would they require all ISP's to start block sites. Well I think they are not going to do it as of yet but leave the idea open for a later date.

  14. If they do fall over??? on Corel Claims That The Worst Is Over · · Score: 1

    If they do fall over what should they do with their technology? Sell it off or give to the public as type of open source donation just to spite Micro$haft.

  15. This nothing new. on Are Linux Reviews Fixed? · · Score: 1

    Companies have been doing this for years. And with this like DMCA ,UTICA writing bad reviews will get
    harder. I like linux and all but I also know alot of the software for it cab be bad and also there are alot software out there is great. People must learn to take things with a grain of salt and decide on their own.

  16. Output on The GPL And Web Applications · · Score: 1

    I wouldn't expect the output of a GPLed program to also be covered under GPL. GPL clearly states that the person with the binary should have the source since the user of the web application doesn't have access to the binary of the application there for the person doesn't need to have the source. That doesn't mean that people shouldn't have the source. But that is just my thoughts on it.

  17. I hope it is done right on KDE And GNOME To Share Component Architectures? · · Score: 1

    If this is done right that would mean if some crazy fool out there
    created a third desktop option for *nix it should be able to pick this
    one up and use it. As long as the interface is clean we should have no problem.

  18. Remember it is just data on Sony's New Personal Fingerprint Scanner · · Score: 1

    What I don't like about this device is all I would have to do is replicate
    the data coming to it. If I bypass the fingerprint sensors and feed previous
    data that I acquired then the data would available to me such as password
    to web sites credit cards and such. Well I don't know if that is possible,
    but you never know

  20. Re:efficiency on What Are Good Web Coding Practices? · · Score: 1

    It depends I seen lets take your example
    You have incresed your speed by 5 seconds
    5 sec x 7200 hits = 36000 sec
    36000 sec = 600 min
    600 min = 10 hr
    now lets talk milliseconds
    15 ms you made it go 10 ms
    5 ms x 7,200,000 hits = 36,000,00 ms
    36,000,000 ms = 36,000 sec
    36000 sec = 600 min
    600 min = 10 hr
    If you web site gets alot of hits then
    it is worth it else don't bother and waste
    the time

  21. The Truth is already out on Intervideo LinDVD 'To Be Released' · · Score: 2

    MPAA has shown with things like the PS2 recall it is all about region control. Ask yourself why should it be illegal to play a movie from another region? If the MPAA can get the Japanise Government to agree to such a stupid thing. Then think about who is really in control of the world Governments. With this LinDVD is really a non product Why should I go spend my money on something that I can get for free??? Remember it is all about who controls what nothing more and nothing less.

  25. Patents can cause more harn than good. on Tech Patents on Science Friday · · Score: 1

    Patents don't allow people to take an idea and run with it. Doesn't allow the freedom to expand a current idea with out price and alot of time the price is way too much for most people. Now as a programmer if must find if every algorithim that I want use is patented that may be a problem but now they are even doing business processes that is wrong. If I create a program that fill a need in my business or employers if that process is patented not the code but the process that is nuts. Well my mini rant is over
