  1. Re:Let's just hope on Day of the Robotic Tentacle · · Score: 0

    True. And very sad (since no one got a joke from one of the best adv. games in the history of mankind).

  2. Re:What's that smell? on 12.8 Petabytes, You Say? · · Score: 0

    Hey, at least it is Water Vapour...

    However, if they are really using DHMO, then I bet some Greenpeace freaks will jump to his neck.

  3. Let's just hope on Day of the Robotic Tentacle · · Score: 0

    he doesn't try to TAKE ON THE WORLD (insert evil laugh and thunder here)

    Otherwise we'll need three teenagers with time machines and a giant diamont to fix it up...

  4. Re:Who's gonna buy the regular on Intel Names Upcoming Chips · · Score: 0

    IMO you have to be Extreme!!! retarded to buy the Intel whatever Extreme!!!

    Because it's EXTREMEly expensive with EXTREME!!!! so-so perfromance.

  5. Synthetol is not fun on Star Trek's Synthehol Now Possible? · · Score: 0

    Call me when they get the Pan-Galatic Gargle-Blaster ready, baby!

  6. Now all they need to do on Researchers Identify Gene Involved in Regeneration · · Score: -1, Redundant

    is find the gene responsible for Quad Damage!

  7. One word on Reverse Engineering Large Software Projects? · · Score: 0

    Doxygen... Best thing I've to recommend to you

    (and yes, I am in a project involving understanding several lines of code)

    Doxygen beats the crap out of SourceNav and other stuff. It creates lots of graphics of major relationships thorout your code.

  8. In South Korea... on Comparing MySQL and PostgreSQL 2 · · Score: 0, Funny

    only old comparisons matter...

    (had to do it)

  9. Re:FP on What are the Next Programming Models? · · Score: 1, Funny

    My opinion on the issue is clear (at least until I change my sig)

    I believe you are ON CRACK.

    Yes, I know WTF a Protean Charm is, but I can't make any sense of your post

  12. Re:Acid2 test looks fine in IE7 on Windows Guru Calls For IE7 Boycott · · Score: 0

    Yes it's right

    IE7 is not ready UNLESS Acid2 test fails

  13. Drugs are bad, mmmkay... on Linux And the Enterprise Environment · · Score: 0

    You are really on crack, man!

    Or maybe you are (ahem) disinformed. RTOS are for meeting "deadlines" like 1ms (one thousanth of a second) and shorter.

    That is, industrial robots, embedded systems (like telephone centrals, mobile stations, etc), avionics, etc

  14. Load Of Bull on New Debian-based Enterprise Linux? · · Score: 0

    It's kind of funny... Someone (probably a Debian lover) cooking up his fantasy and posting it onto the internet. Or sending it to a newspaper...

    No, it's not gonna happen folks.

  15. IIS 6 Securty in one word on Hack IIS6 Contest · · Score: 0

    HTTP.SYS

    No, really, I almost wet myself when I first heard about it. What was Uncle Billy thinking?!?!?

    It's enough that we have user-mode exploits, now we have kernel mode ones too?!?!?

    Did anyone read this as Online Exorcist???

    Or maybe 0wnline extortionist...

  17. Re:It keeps getting better on AMD 'Venice' Core Shows Big Drop in Power Needs · · Score: 0

    AMD makes clone chips, Intel makes chips that fit into Microsofts OS.

    Blah, blah, blah...

    Congratulations on having -10e99 clue.

    Microsoft makes their OS BASED on the x86 specification. You're getting it wrong from the start.

    Intel and Microsoft share information about how the chip will work with the software.

    Again more bullshit. x86 is open. Intel and Microsoft DON'T NEED TO SIT DOWN AND TALK. It just works.

    Congrats on paying $$$ for an overprized, overheating, less performing chip (yes, the Intel)

    But you were right, AMD K5 (and early Athlons) would overheat. Not anymore.

  18. Re:Translation on Bush Signs Law Targeting P2P Pirates · · Score: 1, Insightful

    'thank the congressional sponsors of this legislation for their strong advocacy for intellectual property rights.'

    Translation: You're our , that's the least you could have done for us...

  19. Dude on An Audio Sampler Rube Goldberg Would Love · · Score: 0

    Drugs are bad, mmmmkay!

    No really, this is very cool, but I mean, not very useful (IMHO)

    Call me again when you have an IR LED Record player (not CD, Record, turntable)

  20. Blah, blah, blah on Dell Might do AMD · · Score: 0

    Dell CEO is a jerk...

    If he was serios about AMD, he would've done it already

    I really hope Intel just says: "Ok! Go for it!"

  21. Good Idea, bad implementatio on Hacker High School Starts to Spread · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Increasing awareness of security related computer problems: Good!

    "Hackers" BAD!

    Making teens memorize the motto "antivirus / firewall / no pirate programs" BAD

    Of course, It doesn't seems to me they can teach anythong useful (like nmap for instance, or how to "smash the stack")

  22. Several Easy ways on Easy, Fast, Cheap Way to Generate CPU Load? · · Score: 1, Informative

    Note: do {} while(1); is NOT a good way

    Granted, it's 100% BUT it doesn't stress the heat generators of the CP (namely the ALU/FPU)

    burnp6 (google for it)
    Prime95 (stress test, Linux versions available, runs off command line)

    or other alternatives: like the gzip one

  23. Learn how to pronounce it first... on Mandrakesoft Changes Name to Mandriva · · Score: 0

    It's Mandreeva, not Mandrayva....

    Really, i thought Mandraktiva would be better sounding...

  24. I for one on Star Wars Fans in Line... at the Wrong Theater · · Score: 0

    welcome our new Star Wars fans overlords!

    Oh wait, they've probably gone to the wrong welcome party...

  25. Stupid people to blame on Where is Transmeta Heading? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Tranmeta processors: the best thing there WAS in notebooks, power-consumption wise.

    But since consumers want a "Pentium 4" to play solitaire at the airport and look important doing fancy Powerpoint presentatons, that's all they bought...
