  1. what about slashdot on Google PAC-MAN Cost 4.8M Person-Hours · · Score: 1

  3. wow on Apple's Colossal Disappointment? · · Score: -1, Troll

  4. Has anyone seen easyrider? on Body Modifications Still Hinder IT Professionals? · · Score: 1

    im heavily tatted and a few piercings, i have to cover them up and take them out, which i hate, but i like my job so i do it....but what im gettin at is this is no new delimna, and it spans way past the scope of tats and piercings.....watch easyrider, when they run across the small town in lousiana and everyone freaks out....this is a free country, but when you express those freedoms it makes people scared....people are scared of true freedom.

  5. hmm on Was the Lokitorrent Suit a Hoax? · · Score: 1

    ya know i thought something seemed wierd when this first happened. cause none of the other torrent sites where over ran with mpaa/riaa propaganda after they closed down

  6. jumping the gun a little maybe on RMS Blasts Sun's Open Source Patent Licensing · · Score: 1

    how come nobody has brought up the fact that for a large corporation like sun it is gonna take some time to release source code and free up the patents for solaris. im sure there is mounds of paperwork that has to be done for them to accomplish this. so i would say people are jumping the gun in questioning suns motives because they came up with there own license, and have only released a small amount of code.

    Good things come to those who wait

  7. It's a liger on Bill Gates Handwriting Analyzed · · Score: 1

    bread for its skills in magic. Bill's favorite

  8. Re:madness on MPAA Releases Software For Parents · · Score: 1

    i do stand corrected, ok rephrase in the sense that does it consider bittorrent hostile. and of course the answer is yes, they do. i guess i just see too many idiot parents installing this program and deleting their kids software and personal files because the mpaa told them too. sad thing really

  9. madness on MPAA Releases Software For Parents · · Score: 1

    so i wonder if this tags bittorrent as p2p software. It can be used for such, but has many legitamate uses.

  10. missleading? on MS AntiSpyware vs Ad-Aware vs. SpyBot · · Score: 1

    i think that this could be a little missleading. I gave microsofts antispyware program a go and found that it tagged tightvnc as spyware. I can only wonder what other programs it has tagged as spyware

  16. Re:Why would you install Linux on a Mac? on Gentoo for Mac OS X Released · · Score: 2, Informative

    in this case you arent putting linux on the mac. it is mearly adopting gentoo's portage system to the mac. So you are still running OS X, you just have the kewlness of portage.
    personally i am canning fink as soon as i can get this damn dmg downloaded

  17. mirrors? on Gentoo for Mac OS X Released · · Score: 1

    mirrors anyone, looks /. has claimed another webserver

  18. Re:Flash? on Doom 3 Web Site Now Operational · · Score: 1

    so what you are saying is you cant get excited about this game on your own, so you need some slick sales guy to butter it up and tell you how much you love the game. personally i think less is more here. Hype is annoying, I dont even buy games that get all hyped up anymore. I have wasted 50 bucks to many times cause i thought a game would be decent because it had some hype behind it. ID doesnt need to hype up d3. They have a bar, everyone knows where it is, and i dont think they want to let the public down by putting out something that doesnt live up to that expectation. All and all i dont think they are gonna have a hard time selling D3.

  19. tattoo's on Best Results From Bartering Computer Services? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I started out doing a personal website for a friend that tattoo's at a local shop. That quickly turned into 6 sites for the shop and some of there artist's. now i have $800 worth of tattooing done and about $2000 left to go.

  20. maybe its just me on Apple Rejects RealNetwork's Pleas · · Score: 1

    I am a huge apple fan, love my ipod and powerbook to death, and i really dont care to see real and apple team up. but maybe its just me, but the comment from jobs seemed kinda arrogant

  21. ettercap on What Network Sniffing Tools Do You Use? · · Score: 1

    ettercap is the shit, does regular passive packet sniffing, but it also does man in the middle packet sniffing, nice for switched networks

  22. Re:depends on the system on Build From Source vs. Packages? · · Score: 1

    I would have to say that all depends on the flavor of nix i am using, FreeBSD and gentoo make it relativly pain free to install from source, but if i am using a redhat box or some other rpm based distro i tend to try the package manager that is provided with the distro be it up2date, yast, or whatever, before i install from source. I quess ultimatly for me it just depends on my feelings towards the package manager provided with the distro

  23. sucks to be me on Dish Network & Viacom Settle Their Differences · · Score: 1

    still sucks, already missed chappelle show. And if ya ask me disk network shot themselves in the foot on this one, while i was missing my tv shows i checked into direct tv, and its cheaper and i can get a tivo with 2 tuners for 100 bucks as opposed to the tivo knockoff with 1 tuner that dish network was trying to sell me for the same price. So im still switching

  24. Re:Consumers do have choices on Is Windows Worth $45? · · Score: 1
    i totally agree with you, but here is the problem, the general public isnt smart enough to realize that they have better alternatives. And the ones that are are to afraid of change to try them. Many people have also had a hardtime seeing past the initial price they are paying for a new computer. I personally am a mac guy, and everyone one i have introduced to macs love them, but they are quickly turned away when they ask how much they cost and i tell them. Even after explaining tco and how in the long run they will have fewer problems and spend less money, they still cant look past the 1000+ price tag compared to that new $400 dell they keep seeing on tv. And i am a strong backer of linux/BSD but as much as i love it i still am hesitant to recommend it to non savvy users.

    Ultimatly the only way people are going to take more time to consider alternatives is education and mass marketing. The education part will be the hardest.
