    Mod main story down: Not newsworthy

    Oh, you must be new here.

  2. Re:Fantastic on OpenOffice.org 2.0 Released · · Score: 1
    This is great! Congratulations to the OpenOffice folks. Now all OpenOffice needs is a good vi keymap.

    And maybe a better spell checker. It didn't even pick up that you spelled emacs wrong.

  3. Re:Gigantic Leap on Bulky System Requirements for Windows Vista · · Score: 1
    It's weird that you say that, since I used nLite to strip out the 64mb memory requirment in the install so that I can install it on my 233mhz, 32mb ram laptop. Plus, I have it on my 200mhz, 192mb ram desktop, my 500mhz, 256mb ram desktop, and my 2.7ghz, 768mb ram desktop. They all run just as smooth, no problem. Even with eye candy on.

    These hardware requirements are just to push manufacturers to their limit by making higher performance parts. Thus, parts that will most likely run Vista (and definatly XP) at a minimum smooth speed will be cheaper. This is all a good thing.

  4. Re:Someday, someone will write an OS/2 virus... on Ready For the Big Mac Virus? · · Score: 1
    Actually, you could be wrong. That could be the BEST virus ever. It has a high chance of taking out 100% of the systems running OS/2 most likely.

    ... All two of them.

    You misspelled EDIT.COM :)

  8. Re:Obg. on TI Calculators Play Movies · · Score: 1

    Actually, correct me if I'm wrong, it COULD in fact be possible to fit Linux on something like a Ti-83+ Silver or Ti-84+ Silver (which each have 1.5mb of ROM). But I'm not sure how it would fare on 2K of RAM

    In frame 313, you can clearly see his head move BACK, and to the LEFT! BACK, and to the LEFT! BACK, and to the LEFT!!

    But in frame 301 you can see his head move FORWARD and to the RIGHT, meaning the airbourne Lego brick came from behind him and to the left of him -- thus creating the recoil you saw in frame 313. Reports say Chewbacca was standing in a similar location. I believe we have a wookie to start questioning!.

  13. Re:I think I might win on The First Annual Underhanded C Contest · · Score: 1

    there should be an 'stdio.h' after the #include, obviously (thank you slashdot filtering)

    #include
    main()
    {
    printf("Hello World");
    }

    Seemingly harmless, right? Wrong. It's still in devlopment, but think about it. You should have to greet the world before you destroy it. :)

    Not true. We also get to experience houses of relatives during the occasional; "I ran it over with the car and dropped it in the swimming pool so it doesn't turn on. Fix it." situations. :)

  17. Re:And I thought battery prices were high... on Human Blood For Electrical Power · · Score: 1

    Is it just me or does Tetris only go from levels 0-9? Maybe it's just me and all that blood that I have running from me to my first-gen Gameboy.

  18. Re:A great book on Interview with the Creator of BitTorrent · · Score: 2, Funny

    I'd have to recommend that book too. I had to read it for my English class and was probably my favorite book that the class read. But I must say, I DID get in trouble for cracking up when my teacher said Asperger's syndrome for the first time. There was just something funny about a 50-something year old woman who always spoke in upright, proper English to be saying anything that sounded like "assburger."

    I know what you mean, I've seen programs with Line 1 reading:

    Or they planned ahead with Slashdot on this one. A Slashdot and BBC merger? "/BBC."? I think I have a new story.
