  1. News flash! RFID is not secure on RFID Passport Security "Poorly Conceived" · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    In other news, Freddy Mercury is still dead.

  2. Re:Haskell vs PHP on Microsoft Partners With Zend · · Score: 1

    Haskell wins by default.

  3. Re:One can hope on Will the U.S. Lose Control of the Internet? · · Score: 1

    Please explain to me, how exactly the US "runs" the Internet?

  4. Re:The US is the lesser of two evils on Will the U.S. Lose Control of the Internet? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    They already have control over their part of the net. It's not that the US has a lot to give up.

  5. Re:Will it solve The Problem? on Ubuntu 6.10 is Out · · Score: 1

    Check which groups you are in, especially if the user you're running isn't the one you created during the install. Won't give any guarantee that that's the problem, though.

  6. Re:INSTALL on Ubuntu 6.10 is Out · · Score: 1

    The easiest way is (unfortunately) to try out both.

  7. Re:No realtime 2.6.18 kernel yet on Ubuntu 6.10 is Out · · Score: 1
  8. The obvious answer on Wired's Very Short Stories · · Score: 1

    Boobies boobies boobies. Boobies? Boobies boobies!

    (This story is sponsored by booobieees!)

  9. Re:It is an excellent book on Programming in Lua 2nd Edition · · Score: 1

    Python is generally easier to extend than embed; Lua is different in that it's designed to be embedded.

  10. Re:I suffered a similar problem on "Dilbert" Creator Gets Voice Back · · Score: 2, Interesting

    You were lucky. I know a person who got hit in the head in her childhood and her words are just that, jumble - also, she can't hear them - but she can read lips and somehow gets by. Oh, and she's nearing 50.

  11. Re:Do something about extensions on Firefox 2.0 Posted a Day Early · · Score: 1

    vi doesn't work on Plan 9? That's officialy THE most useless OS ever!

  12. Re:It's tough... on Stem Cell Therapy Causes Tumors · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't such an off-switch effectively be a cure for cancer? If it worked in artificially caused tumors, why wouldn't it in cancer?

  13. Re:Excellent on Firefox 2.0 To Debut Tuesday · · Score: 1
    So 2.0 drops on Tuesday, and the biggest topic /. has to discuss about it is whether or not Mozilla actually pioneered tabbed browsing or not?
    Of course.

    Since you have a lower id than me, I feel entitled to say these words...

    Welcome to slashdot. Enjoy your stay.

  14. Re:IE 7 Quick Tabs on Firefox 2.0 To Debut Tuesday · · Score: 2, Informative

    foxpose has had it since, um, I can't remember. I'm pretty sure Opera has this built-in, but don't take my word for it.

  15. That TV would need an attitude adjustment. on Networking For Overconvenience · · Score: 1

    Imagine a message on your TV telling you it's time to start the laundry!

    That smart TV would soooo get smacked with a smart sledgehammer.

    A plain old sledgehammer would do just fine if you think about it.

  16. Player base on Ask the Warhammer Online Team · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Do you want to chew into WoW's player base or are you targeting players from other games, most notably other Warhammer titles? If you're targeting WoW, what do you do you have to offer and do you think they'll really jump ship? And if you do convince players, how do you intend to keep them playing WH other than eternal grind for herbs or whatever?

  17. Re:Wouldn't this be folding at single precision on on Folding@Home Releases GPU Client · · Score: 1

    double and quad precision is possible on a gpu. link to paper.

  18. everyone should check out this site on Hans Reiser Arrested On Suspicion of Murder · · Score: 1

    http://www.ninareiser.com/inthenews.html

    The first link I followed is interesting, too - it says that Hans didn't talk to the police for the whole time his wife was missing, because he was upset that they searched his house...

  19. Googlified on Google Buys YouTube for $1.65 Billion · · Score: 1

    All your tubes are belong to us.

  20. Re:My university... on Enabling Bittorrent at the University Level? · · Score: 1

    Basically, they decided that the web (port 80) needed to be as fast as possible, because that's where real work gets done.

    Saying such things on SLASHDOT?

  21. The cemeteries are full of indispensable people. on Rob Levin, lilo of FreeNode, Passes · · Score: 1

    But their deeds shall not be forgotten.

  22. Re:Parrot on IronPython 1.0 is Born · · Score: 1

    The problem with parrot is, it doesn't really work. Maybe it'll work sometime in the future, but Python on .NET is here right now, working pretty much flawlessly (hence 1.0 release.)

  23. Debian and Ubuntu on Trouble on the Debian Front? · · Score: 1

    I think that this whole issue with Debian not liking Ubuntu is misunderstanding. Sure, Ubuntu is using Debian's work, but Debian agreed to that in the first place, even before Ubuntu was concieved - that's the ultimate point of open source, after all.

    Debian creates, Ubuntu releases. That's how I see it and it seems to work; I hope that some inflated e-peens won't break anything.

  24. Check out supreme commander on Real-Time Strategy Games - Too Many Clicks? · · Score: 2, Informative

    SupCom for all those Total Annihilation lovers, where you can issue orders and forget about the units doing them, because you know they'll get executed.

    This game will remove the arcade out of RTS. Check out the trailer or the E3 presentation.

  25. Don't be evil? on Google Sends Legal Threats to Media Organizations · · Score: 1

    My ass.

    It's in the dictionary, you fools. Some puny corporate machine can't stop natural language evolution.
