  1. Re:Got a picture! on Comet McNaught Visible in Broad Daylight · · Score: 1

    ...and if you really want to see some very nice images, follow the Flickr link in the text.

  2. Re:Can I still see it? on Comet McNaught Visible in Broad Daylight · · Score: 1

    Unfortunately she will be setting at the same time as the sun but that doesn't mean that you should not try. If the western horizon is very clear, you'll have the potential for a killer view especially if the sun is all red and the comet reaches her expected magnitute of -4.4

  3. Got a picture! on Comet McNaught Visible in Broad Daylight · · Score: 3, Informative

    I was able to take a pretty crappy shot of her yesterday at dusk. Unfortunately I didn't hear about that comet until it was too low on the horizon to get anything decent...or to get my hands on a decent zoom lense.

  4. Two words, bots and spam on Online Gambling Running Out of Steam · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Last month, my photoblog has received about 5000 comment and referral spam from that industry. I don't even read Wil Weaton anymore because he keeps reminding me of those morons.

  5. Re:Not busted for "spamming" on Another Major Spammer Busted · · Score: 1

    So what! Al Capone died is jail not for murder, smuggling, corruption or racketteering but because he was busted for tax evasion. I don't care how or why, as long as the end result is the same.

  6. A disturbance in the Force on Another Major Spammer Busted · · Score: 1

    I feel a great disturbance in the Force, something like to voices of 72,000 penises screaming in horror and then suddently going flabby.

  7. It never ceases to amaze me... on Spyware Floods in Through BitTorrent · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    how much crap people will put up to keep using those oh so cool Windoze machines.

  8. Re:Test of the NYT article on Rave Reviews for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I did find it tremendously annoying that the multimedia part of the article requires you to have Real or WMP but not Quicktime.

  9. Check the end of the message! on Babylon 5 Theatrical Movie Falls Through · · Score: 4, Funny

    I love JMS!

  10. Vomiting Pumpkin on Halloween Pumpkin Carving · · Score: 5, Funny
  11. Add one pre-order on Locus Interviews Neal Stephenson · · Score: 5, Informative

    I just finished the second installment and was left wanting more. It may be somewhat long winded but, for the history-loving geek in me, there is no better. This is the first time I ever pre-ordered a book before it's release. Now I'm gonna wait it out by playing Europa Universalis II :-P

  12. Not to worry on Apple Not Too Harmonious with Real · · Score: 1

    Real will certainly put the relevant software on a hidden link in a page full of ads.

  13. Re:Mac OSX and Linux - face the facts on Security Statistics and Operating System Conventional Wisdom · · Score: 1

    Which means that they day MS gets their sh1t together is the day you start looking for a new career.

  14. Re:pics i took on Venus Transit Finished · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Hopefully mine will be more original than most of the ones that you have seen today. Now if I could only remember how to deleted the previous comment with the bad address :-(

  15. Re:pics i took on Venus Transit Finished · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I also took one which, I think, is unlike any of the ones that you will see today. http://www.digitalapoptosis.com/archives/miscellan eous/000161.html

  16. Re:What if the box was wrong? on 'Black Box' Readings Help Convict Montreal Driver · · Score: 1

    Actually, the first sign that your black box goes too far out of wack will probably be the airbag going off in you face. I get the feeling that car company lawyers will strive to ensure that this does not happen.

  17. Re:131km/h = 81.4 MPH on 'Black Box' Readings Help Convict Montreal Driver · · Score: 4, Informative

    Worst this is that the 131 km/h was just before impact. The previous 2 seconds of data indicated that the moron lifted his foot off the gas and slowed down from 154 km/h. Data from the black box was necessary since there were no eyewitness and no skid marks.
