  1. Re:I've just got to ask.. on Ubuntu Linux Review · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Some people want a server, some people want a desktop, some want to run an FTP server.

    Umm HELL NO. Look at what troube we have when a Web Browser is build into the OS. Keep it in userland people...

  2. Re:Also vulnerable from Microsoft... on GDI Vulnerabilities: An Open Letter to Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Exactly.. I just installed Word Viewer for 97/2000 and looked at all of the dependant dll's that are required for the exe.. and gdiplus.dll, sxs.dll, wsxs.dll and mso.dll are NOT required.

  4. Re:the limits of evolution on Evolution 2.0 Released, Screenshots · · Score: 1

    I don't know how evelotuon works now, but previous versions didn't store all of the users email and data in ONE fscking file. I seem to remember that each "folder" had it's on file, similar to imap setups, so, in theory Evolution can how a LOT more data than Outlook. But Like I said, this is before version 1.4... Evolution took too long to load on my p400 so I stick with mutt..

  6. Re:diebold.. on Anti-Spyware Bill up for Vote in Congress · · Score: 1

    well.. as true as that may be, I'd like to have spyware installed to make sure it was actually counting votes properly. I know if I'm forced to use one, I'll start my own protest right there and sit in the box until I'm pulled out..

    I would be prudent to put spyware in diebold's voting machines though.,.

    Note that the FAA insists that they're currently implementing a better solution than "reboot every month". Better hurry, guys, you've only got 47.3 days left.

  15. Re:Those who forget history are doomed to repeat i on Google Loses Domain Fight Over Froogles.com · · Score: 1

    So what you are saying is that it's ok for google to go after froogles.com, but not for eToys to go after eToy, because Google has geek cred? Thats horse shyte.

    Microsoft.com going after microsofts.com = bad?
    slashdot.org going after slashdots.org = good?
    froogle.com going after froogles.com = good?
    linux.com going after linuxs.com = good?
    etoys.com going after etoy.com = bad?

    I guess its bad when the plural of the domain goes after the singular of the domain or if Microsoft is involved.

    AND, I highly doubt that when eToys went after Etoy.com that it "proceeded to piss of just about the whole Internet " I know a ton of people that never heard of etoy and most of them were eToys target market.

    Your argument "sucks" by the way..

  21. Re:Only five million? on iTunes 4.5 Authentication Cracked · · Score: 1

    I live in Los Angeles and I first saw a pepsi iTunes bottle in early April.. and ONLY diet Pepsi... regular pepsi was still in football or baseball promotion mode.. For something that was supposed to start early Feb, it took 1.5 months to even hit the stores.. so 5 mil in a month seems ok.. since the pepsi bottles are still not "everywhere" Target and Rite Aid and other store STILL do not carry the iTunes pepsi bottles...

  22. Re:Why do "free" songs require credit card numbers on iTunes 4.5 Authentication Cracked · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Well there's that.. and I didn't see any of the special bottles until the beginning of April. Wasn't it supposed to start in the middle of february?

    But to keep myself on topic.. Apple probably has a standard singup path.. They assume that if you are going to redeem a free song.. that you might buy something later.. But yes.. its lame to require a credit card when you are making a purchase of $0.00..
