    Give them a free tv if they show up at say a convention center. err maybe a free xbox if they are say in the first 400 people to a convention.

    This may sound like it wouldn't work. They tried giving away a free tv to the first 400 guys to show up at a conference on not paying child support and they caught like 400 some guys who were deliquient. Lets try it on spammers.

    OK, so say they find out how the brain works in this way. Who is going to use it, advertisers. If they could use drungs or subliminal things they would. Now what, my girlfriend will want to shop more. Now, they will get me to buy more useless things.

  12. wall on Sony Projector Gets Bright Images From Black Screen · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    A lot of time projectors are just pointed at a wall. This projecter won't have the versitility to do that. A weakness.

  13. Re:Rad Hat training... on Red Hat Announces Certified Architect Curriculum · · Score: 1

    It would be nice if Red Hat offered a certification course for software developers.

    Are you saying that software is/should be certified by redhat before it goes in?? Wouldn't that be like M$ driver signing. We see how well everyone liked that.

  14. locking in on Red Hat Announces Certified Architect Curriculum · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Is this any better than Microsoft Certification? I wonder if it will lock more into Redhat and paying for that. Linux may be "better" in some ways to windows but this is still locking in.

  15. War Golfing on War Kayaking · · Score: 3, Funny

    War Golfing has been around for years. Every time I go it's war with the tall grass, war with the trees, war with the sand traps and war with the whole damn course.

  16. a legislative idea on Australian Gov't To Consider Spyware Laws · · Score: 4, Funny

    Interestingly, the article cites lack of 'international cooperation' as a barrier to effective enforcement of cyberlaws.

    An idea to get international cooperation would be to make it an act of war to get a mail bomb or any other kind of attack. We (in the US) get a couple of these... go knock on that countries door a few times and we'll get the cooperation from everyone we are hoping for.

  17. Re:WYSIWYG, why webmonkey? on Zombie Webmonkey: Back From the Dead? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Creating a web page without knowing HTML is like driving a car without knowing how to read.

    I wouldn't say that. I would say it's like driving a car without knowing how it works under the hood. And there are a lot of people that don't know how a car works under the hood but can get done what they need to do.

  18. WYSIWYG, why webmonkey? on Zombie Webmonkey: Back From the Dead? · · Score: 2, Informative

    with all the wysiwyg editors what is the reason for the average joe to know html. If you are more advanced then that you prolly have a minilibrary of book on it. So, why webmonkey??? I havn't used it in years.

  19. Re:Your time costs money on Report From "Get The Facts" · · Score: 1

    2 problems with that. First, any time I use learning new features is not recorded as training time. There is no record that I used that time for training.

    Second, is that I don't know anyone who needs Windows training. They have been using it so long and it's still the same basic concept that no new user needs training.

  20. Re:Unfair comparisons... of course they're going t on Report From "Get The Facts" · · Score: 4, Insightful

    any businesses wanting to use it will naturally go for the most expensive possible distribution (i.e RedHat uber deluxe professional platinum addition for business).

    Many companies like the one I work for require you to be able to get a service contract for any software. So, to use Linux they have to be able to get a service contract. That's why they go for those expensive ones. They have the service.

    Well, I say that any half-decent system administrator should be able to do his job completely from a command-line interface and should not need a GUI.

    You're figureing on half decent sys admins. Many of the ones I know can't do anyting outside the GUI. And they don't even have half of an understanding of what is really going on. Some have never even herd of /. Sadly many who are called sys admins don't really know a whole lot.

  21. No Kidding on Report From "Get The Facts" · · Score: 1

    Sure, Linux training costs are 15% higher. When I get a windows upgrade at work there is no training. It's just figure it out. There are no training courses on windows at all here.

    But, if you convert over to Linux you would have to give some basic training. Answer some employees questions. Seems a small price to pay

  22. It's Simple on Report From "Get The Facts" · · Score: 1

    It's pretty easy to come up with something like this. Here is how it goes. Someone comes up with a conclusion they want then they write something to get there. It's like with stats or polls. You know the outcome you want to so manipulate the "data" to show that. Then you promote the hell out of it and people believe you.

    They do it because it works.

  25. Interface on Torrentocracy = RSS + Bit Torrent + Your TV · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The Interface needs to be as easy as digital cable. Otherwise i'd never use it. When I sit down in front of the TV I become a veg. Anything not easy is just plain to hard to do.
