  1. Re:A word of advice on Becoming a Linux Kernel Programmer? · · Score: 1

    Look at the front page of /.. At time of writing this post, you'll see an article about how Linux is the future of embedded devices. There is a potential market building as we speak.

  2. Re:price on Building Up a Small Computer Business? · · Score: 1

    He only made $300. $10 out of $300 is a lot of money!

  3. Re:Windows is your limiting factor on Filesystems For Removable Disks? · · Score: 1

    NT4 does work with HPFS. But I think it was removed on the later NT releases.

  4. Re:Man.... on WindowsUpdate.com Secured, Permanently · · Score: 2, Funny

    They are getting smarter, this time the IP isn't hardcoded.

  5. Power outage related to Microsoft on WindowsUpdate.com Secured, Permanently · · Score: 3, Funny

    It seems the power in one of the most populated areas of North America was out around the same time Micrsoft was making these fixes? Coincidence? I think not. For those of you in the power outage area, expect it to happen again tomorrow as the DoS is about to begin.

  6. SCO owns hydro on Power Outages Strike East Coast · · Score: 1

    This just in, SCO now claims they own the patent on power grids. The electricity companies unable to pay the royalties had to show down the network.

    Power is still out here. Good thing we have generators and batteries!

  7. Re:Yes This Guy Is Right... on SCO Attorney Declares GPL Invalid · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    No, I did! Bow down before me, or feel the wrath of my lawyers.

  8. Re:Hmm on SCO Attorney Declares GPL Invalid · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It does. If you aren't allowed to do that, then technically you shouldn't be able to license your software/music/whatever either because that allows for another copy. Really what is the difference between giving it away, and selling the rights other than the amount of money that exchanges hands?

  9. 503 - or how random is it? on LavaRnd: A Open Source Project for Truly Random Numbers · · Score: 1
    I keep getting:
    503 Service Unavailable

    There are too many connections in use right now. Please try again later.
    I wouldn't exactly call that random.
  10. Size? on ATI Wins Bid For Next Xbox · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Will this decrease the size of the oh so HUGE current Xbox? Frankly who wants to lug something of that massive stature into their homes? I for one think it hurt the sales of the original Xbox.

  11. Obligatory Simpsons Quote on Robots for Air Force Protection · · Score: 1

    I am a robot, do what I say, hehehehe.

    I am a washing machine, do what I say, hehe.

  12. Re:Crush, Kill, Destroy! on Robots for Air Force Protection · · Score: 1

    Just don't take any pictures and you'll be fine.

  13. Re:Huh? on Microsoft, OD2 Start European Music Service · · Score: 1

    You've just got to watch that buffer overflow in the money stack.

  14. Re:Sounds like a good idea... on Microsoft, OD2 Start European Music Service · · Score: 1

    The teenagers aren't the demographic they should be targeting. They are tech-savvy enough to figure out how to get the songs for free, and they will because they can. It's the older professional who is more likely to use the service due to having less time to find the music and more money at his/her disposal.

  15. Re:Microsoft Copying Apple?? on Microsoft, OD2 Start European Music Service · · Score: 1

    The problem with the X-Pod is that it will be so HUGE that you won't be able to carry it around!

  16. Re:New Client on Microsoft Stops Development Of Outlook Express · · Score: 0

    I'm more worried about twice the security exploits.

  17. Re:About time... on Microsoft Stops Development Of Outlook Express · · Score: 0

    Microsoft will probably release an enterprise version of whatever they have planned for the fate of Outlook Express.

  18. Re:THIS IS MY OUTLOOK! on Microsoft Stops Development Of Outlook Express · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Doing this will allow them to focus on elminating spam. If everything has to travel through Hotmail's servers it will be easier to beging to put an end to spam.

  19. Standard Protocols? on Microsoft Stops Development Of Outlook Express · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Where does that leave the general e-mail system if they focus on new systems based around Hotmail? If the regular Microsoft user who only knows Outlook (/Express) exists can only use Hotmail now, regular SMTP/POP3/IMAP servers may become a thing of the past. Not to mention leaving the non-Windows mail servers behind.

    I imagine in 10 years you won't be able to post the same thing twice on Slashdot. http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=74653&cid=6691 131 Oh who am I kidding, Slashdot won't be around in 10 years when Microsoft buys it out and renames it Microslash.NET.
