  1. RichFaces and Ajax4JSF on Five AJAX Frameworks Reviewed · · Score: 1

    If they were serious about sticking to the Java way of doing it and using WAS why didn't they look at RichFaces and AJAX4JSF? These companion project are very mature and offer a fantastic way of getting AJAX into your Java web apps.

    They work even better if you combine them with JBoss Seam.

  2. how about "make the jerk sound at least 30" on Halo 3 To Have 'Mute the Jerk' Button · · Score: 1

    ...that way I could pretend that the guy that kicking my ass isn't 20 years younger than me.

  3. The Brits have a well established solution.... on Businesses To Be Censored on Use of Olympics · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It's called Cockney Rhyming Slang. eg. Tea-Leaf = Thief Dog-And-Bone = Phone Stuffy-Pricks = Olympics (I made that one up...can you tell?)

  4. these fishing analogies.... on IBM Reports On Spear Phishers · · Score: 1

    where will they stop?

    I predict we'll see :
    - deep sea phishing
    - game phishing
    - phish mongers
    - and so on ad naseum...

  5. lunch gets you famous... on Paul Graham on PR · · Score: 1

    The way that PR Pros not only spin the news but write the copy for news stories is disturbing but no news (unless this is a PR story??).

    A friend of mine in PR once had a total nobody Client listed as one of Europes 50 most influential men in IT. All he had to do was take one journalist to lunch.

  6. skin over a fax eh...... on Inkjet Printer Prints out Human Skin · · Score: 1

    so I could have a porn star delivered via fax without the neighbours knowing? Sweet.

  7. hits the comet off course and goodbye earth.... on NASA's Deep Impact · · Score: 1

    Still it must vastly help mankind to know that an icy comet is made up of ice.

  8. Kids know more than us... on Disney Enters PC Market · · Score: 2, Funny

    Kids these days are so computer literate that this will only appeal for possibly 1 or 2 weeks before they are coding PHP and recompiling the Linux Kernel. I always feel like such a chump talking to my gf's 10 year old nephew. I have less intelligent IT conversations at work.

  9. An office? on Paul Graham On 'Great Hackers' · · Score: 1
    After software, the most important tool to a hacker is probably his office.
    If you give a geek an office, he'll stop communicating, eventually stop shaving, soon stop showering and then you'll wonder why you have to fumigate.
  10. M$ already has SAP... on What Might Have Been: Microsoft Almost Bought SAP · · Score: 1

    at least I had heard that Microsoft runs one SAP instance globally for it's financial accounting.

    A case of not eating your own dog food or perhaps liking it so much they wanted the company?

  11. scamjet powered cars on How Will We Get Around Near-Future Earth? · · Score: 1

    but you'd need scramjet powered brakes as well.

  12. a job at McDonalds on Building Social Skills in Gifted Youths? · · Score: 1

    it'll do wonders for his social skills, manners and skin. Include an intellectual challenge such as hacking the deep fryer or creating a model of a protein from onion rings.

  13. Re:You're gonna think this is flamebait on Linux in Munich Followup · · Score: 1

    The $23.7 million from Microsoft was only because Ballmer flew out specially and negotiated a special price. I sincerely doubt he'd do the same every time the licences come up for renewal.

  14. I'd like to see my clothes on Pamela Anderson.... on Virtual Dummy To Try On Clothes · · Score: 1

    A virtual Pamela that is (if the real one is unwilling). Especially in nothing but my socks.

    Maybe I could see how a virtual George Bush likes it in my shoes (or shirt).

  15. and the blocked count is strangely satisfying.... on Blocking Pop-ups at the ISP Level? · · Score: 1

    or is that just me?

  16. won't last on Australia's Largest ISP Redefines Spam · · Score: 1

    This is just another cr*p idea from Telstra. Acting before they've thought it through again. There's no way they'll be able to police the thousands of users who exceed this amount. Good luck to them - more jobs for those Aussies.

  17. his local drinking hole is still serving... on Guy Fawkes' Explosion Would Have Devasted London · · Score: 1

    You can still go to Gordons Wine Bar down near Embankment Station where Guy Fawkes apparently used to drink. Awesome place that just reeks of history - or was that BO?

  18. Re:Could this be related to Federal Snoops? on Gaim Speaks Out on MSN Ban · · Score: 4, Informative
    That was related to JAP.

    story at the Register here

    Was to stop pedos looking at kiddie porn. Unless your paranoia stems from MSNing dirty pics then no worries.
