  1. Re:No, no, please... on Canada Responsible for 50% of Movie Piracy · · Score: 0

    ... isn't releasing Tom Cruise upon the world punishment enough? well, yes and we replied with celine dion...
  2. sushi anyone? on Rare Shark Filmed in Japan · · Score: 1

    Doesn't looks like something I'd like to eat but hell, after eating Macdonald, i guess my stomach could endure anything ?

  3. Re:Gentoo? on Gentoo on the PS3 - Full Install Instructions · · Score: 1

    WHERE in hell did you saw the poster say it is newbie friendly ?
    FROM TFA:
    - Criticisms of Gentoo:
    - Difficult for anyone new to Linux since they get overwhelmed with all the stuff given to them.

    - Don't get me wrong, Gentoo is an overwhelmer for any newbie to Linux, but since I'm very comfortable with it, I decided to set it up on his PS3.

    - The installation isn't for those who've never spent time at the Linux command line. While the instructions can be understood and followed by everyone, we'd prefer it if total newbies stayed away from it for a little while..

    And as for the package management, well, maybe you dislike compiling things, but does that really make it a bad package management ?

  4. Re:And this is news? on Xbox 360 Wins Through 2009? · · Score: 1

    by saying that he is dead wrong about the wii, aren't you writing random insert-your-own-inappropriate-word-here guesses ?

  5. same person, another name on Galileo Forced To Change Its name? · · Score: 1

    Why not Galilei ?

  6. Re:On Mars on Doom Movie Update · · Score: 1

    well, at least, IMDB.com says it will be space marines on phobos one moon of Mars... http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0419706/

  7. Internet explorer ... on Reading Slashdot From Strange Locations · · Score: 1

    i already used internet explorer to read slashdot ... shame on me :)

  8. geeks vs green thumb on Using Plants as Speakers · · Score: 1

    personally, I don't want to be obligated to water my speaker system every week ...

    hey, let's listen to some mp3's ... ahhh sorry, my plants just died last week ...

  9. Re:The land of the free on Why Offshore When Canada's Next Door? · · Score: 2, Informative

    we pay blank CD-R levy but we cant get sued by MPAA/RIAA.

  10. about the author... on AMD64 Windows vs. Fedora vs. SuSE benchmarks · · Score: 3, Insightful

    i was wondering why everything was boosted for linux without clearly stating that the binairies for windows was almost all only available in 32 bits versions.
    many other good posts above explaine this very well.

    maybe here is the answer.
    Kristopher pioneered AnandTech's coverage in the Display and Optical Storage arenas and most recently has been commissioned to kick off coverage of hardware in the ever expanding Linux world. Using Linux as his primary work environment, Kris was the ideal candidate for AnandTech's endeavors into the Linux world. Kris leverages his vast experience with Linux as well as his hardware knowledge to fight for the Linux community, with the goal of improved hardware and driver support at the top of his priority list.

  11. adti.net on freebsd on Fathers of Linux Revealed: Tooth Fairy & Santa Claus · · Score: 3, Informative
    from a post in the Comments of the article,
    amomynous commented ... Funny that for all their railing against FOSS software, www.adti.net is served from FreeBSD [netcraft]. http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph/?host=www.adti .net I would think for all their MS schilling, they would go with their own recommendations.
  12. nothing in queue ? on Control Lightshow Over Dublin Sky From A Webpage · · Score: 0, Redundant

    when I submitted mine there was no one in the queue, so it was displayed immediately.

    betcha this will change alot while servers will be suffering the slashdot effect !

  13. average annual income vs licensing type on Linux Advocacy in Ethiopia: A Traveller's Journal · · Score: 1

    from the article : The average annual income is 108 US$ (2004, [4]), but one has to keep in mind the large gap between poor and super-rich
    No wonder why they whould be interested by open source... not even enough to pay for one Microsoft Windows licence...

  14. Re:Missing the point on Florida Ponders Communication Tax on LANs · · Score: 1

    They would tax sex and air if they could.
    think of all geeks who own Pr0n on their lan ... so in a way they would be taxing tax sex too :)

  15. land line ... on Florida Ponders Communication Tax on LANs · · Score: 1

    can land line be applied to wireless lan too ? if yes, (wireless lan / walkie talkie / ham radio) users would have to pay for this ... it could easily cost more money to the state to enforce this than what it would earn them ...

  16. long term failure should be expected ? on Mind Over Machine · · Score: 3, Interesting

    computers can recognize patterns and allow programming based on these patterns to say, know if a mouse is thinking about pushing his water lever.
    what would happen to the mouse if, at long term, she knows that by thinking about pushing the lever she don't have to push that lever anymore, the computer can't find that previous pattern because the mice have forgotten the use of the lever. thus reprogramming is re-required. seems like an infinite loop ...

  17. Re:Some ridiculous comments on Microsoft's Platform Strategist Speaks On Linux · · Score: 5, Funny
    So in some ways, we've got a McDonald's No. 5 super-size offering that costs $2.99 and someone just wants a Diet Coke that costs 99 cents.
    So, Windows is compared to McDonalds ? True : Both leave a bitter taste just thinking of it and both are owned by a clown !
  18. "Average Joe" Vs. buffer overflows on AMD Could Profit from Buffer-Overflow Protection · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The question will be whether their PR department can spin this into a big enough story to sell to the Average Joe.
    but can "Average Joe" understand the implication of buffer overflows ?
    try to explain to Homer Simpson why he should upgrade his computer based on buffer overflows protections.

  19. bad name ? on Lindows becomes Lindash · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    so ... i can't start selling a new Product called Wicrosoft Mindows in amsterdam ? Wicrodash Mindash (c)2004 this is nonsense!

  20. Re:Blocking breeding is key. on California Bans Genegineered Fish · · Score: 1

    The researcher noted that making them sterile greatly reduced whatever risk there might be for problems later on. But what kind of effect should we expect on our ecosystem with tose practice? Can locals make any difference between a sterile glowfish a normal fish? this could bring bad effects on the overall ecosystem if they can't make the difference. Could this bring a downsize in the population if when they tried to breed a glowfish they stop their breeding process ?

    Doh !
