  1. Re:Frost. on Building New Materials With Light · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Asshole.

  2. VirtualBox Certainly on Ask Slashdot: Which Virtual Machine Software For a Beginner? · · Score: 5, Informative

    Easy to set up (I walked my brother through it over the phone) easy to use (ditto) and fairly full featured.

  3. How does this differ on The Rise of the Programmable Data Center · · Score: 2

    How does this differ from running OpsWare or BladeLogic and installing agents on all servers in the DC? That's how I've been doing it at last couple jobs.

  4. Re:Photographic prints! on Ask Slashdot: Best Option For Printing Digital Photos? · · Score: 1

    I second CVS. You can pick them up same day, or they can mail them to you.

  5. Good! on Santorum Suspends Presidential Campaign · · Score: 2

    Too bad. I rather enjoyed watching the Republicans feeding upon each other. I am looking forward to Obama's 2012 victory.

  6. Cameras on Should Smartphones Be Allowed In Court? · · Score: 1

    Last time I was on Jury duty, I was told no cell phones. Apparently gangs were using the cameras to photo and intimidate witnesses.

  7. Fraught with peril on Apple Patent Hints at Net-Booting Cloud Strategy · · Score: 0

    I imagine a tech support nightmare for supporting the Gentle Users. It couid work OK for IT professionals. I don't see this for mobile devices for the unwashed masses however... mqh

  8. D&D on Where Were You When PLATO Was Born? · · Score: 1

    I was in High school in 1983, learning BAL on an IBM 370. I first used PLATO at UIUC in 1977, playing interactive D&Dgame. BTW, how is 1973 50 years ago?

  9. in perl on (Useful) Stupid Regex Tricks? · · Score: 1

    I like:

    scalar s/\|/\|/g;

    returns number of vertical bar ('|') characters in the variable $_.
