  1. Re:another good idea. on Chinese Students' Cheating Techniques - Don't Try at Home · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I believe the parent was being sarcastic...

  2. Re:Farm Workers Without Allergies on Overly Sanitized Environments Lead to Poor Health? · · Score: 1

    I completely agree. I used to work construction, not exactly the greatest work environment. There's old insulation, sheetrock dust, saw dust, lack of hand-washing abilities. Surprisingly enough, I got sick twice out of the 2 years on the job. I think I got a slight cold which ended soon after it started. I believe that the more the human body encounters the more it learns to defend itself against.

  3. In Communist Russia... on New Trojan Threatens Windows XP SP 2 · · Score: -1, Troll

    ...Swiss Cheese puts holes in you.

  4. Re:Uh yeah. on Microsoft Bringing TV to Xbox · · Score: 1

    Watching media from the xbox: Priceless

  5. Re:Mozilla "innovation" reaches new low? on Mozilla Developers Respond to Malware · · Score: 2, Funny

    You must remember we are on slashdot. Please define words such as "condom" in the future you insensitive clod!

  6. Re:If you want to check out XP SP2 RC2... on Microsoft Delays Windows XP Service Pack 2 · · Score: 1

    be sure to read the fine print "do not install over slipstreamed version of Sp2." I did it without reading and messed up the compy. Had to reinstall.

  7. Re:the annoying "buzz" on Modding Laser Tag Gear? · · Score: 1

    What about small explosive devices that, when the player is hit, explode sending him sailing to the ground...might be an effective deterrent to "suicidal" laser tag participants. Only downside is the requirement of reloading explosives after each round...and the whole serious injury thing...whatever

  8. Re:Where from? on How To Avoid Viruses At Windows Install Time? · · Score: 1

    Yes, with the holes in windows, and all of the infected machines everywhere, viruses do just appear....rough but true. Viruses like Sasser and Blaster, Nimda etc.

  9. Slipstreaming on How To Avoid Viruses At Windows Install Time? · · Score: 1

    Probably not the most efficient way, but if you have to reinstall often, you could invest the time setting up a bootable slipstreamed disk with sp1 already in the OS, you can dl the updates from MS and set those to install as well. In addition to this, you can create a full unattended install, allowing you to not be present at the time. A simple googling of "unattended windows" should hook you up.

  10. Setting my watch... on Copy-protected CD Tops U.S. Charts · · Score: 1

    Timing how long until I can get the mp3's

  11. Dang... on phpstack - A TCP/IP Stack and Web Server in PHP · · Score: 1

    Well done, I am visitor number 7309, still up, lagged, but up nonetheless.

  12. passive scanner on Unhealthy Sniffing · · Score: 1

    Will ethereal work as a passive scanner? Like used to grab packets from a MAC filtered wi-fi network that you do not have access to?

  13. Re:Here's a stupid question on Jail Time for Misleading Domain Names · · Score: 1

    Or perhaps she puts them on national television? Oh wait, already done...

  14. Unpickable? on Optical Lock Foils Thieves · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Accually saying that this is an "unpickable" lock is risky. I mean, look at the efforts by the RIAA to prevent P2P, or the anti-burning CD's with the corrupt files that crash computers, someone fixed that with a sharpie. I think that making statements like that is seriously underestimating human potential.

  15. Re:Oh NO! Worldwide Outbreak!!! on Superflu Being Brewed in the Lab · · Score: 1

    I wonder what will happen '28 Days Later' (yet another good movie)

  16. Re:RIAA getting sued... on RIAA Countersued Under Racketeering Laws · · Score: 1

    There have been others, just none as popular or creative at this one...

  17. Re:I remember.... on Computers/Keyboards + Dorm Room = No Zzzzzz? · · Score: 1

    Yep, indestructible keyboards are virtually silent, difficult to get used to though. You probably won't have the same speed or comfort as you will with a standard keyboard but once you get it mastered, it's kinda nice to be able to roll it up and put it someplace if you need the deskspace.

  18. Re:Doesn't work on California Man Sues Penis-Enlargment Firms · · Score: 1

    We talking full-mast or half-mast?

  19. The Real Alternative on NPR's Car Talk Dumping RealMedia · · Score: 1

    There is a codec called The Real Alternative that plays realmedia files without the hassle of finding their free player.

  20. Can't explain the comfort on Carpal Tunnel- Laptops Better than Ergo Keyboards? · · Score: 1

    I feel the same way. Could it be that you don't have to press the keys as hard? or maybe the tightness means you don't have to move your fingers as far. Either way I like it.

  21. Dumb question? on SmoothWall 2.0 Linux-Based Firewall Released · · Score: 1

    Hey, this might be a dumb question but is it necessary for a static IP to be used with smoothwall? Will DynDNS suffice?

  22. Re:Simple solution on The Rise of Cyber Bullying · · Score: 1

    It's not necessarily the geeks. With things like geocities and automated stuff like that, it could be anyone. Right?
