  1. Re:See also: on Is Rodi BitTorrent's Replacement? · · Score: 1

    You forgot to mention the Freenet project.

  2. Re:Don't you mean... on Wikipedia Reaches Half a Million Articles · · Score: 1

    "Your Klicks May Vary" sounds better.

  3. Google cache to the rescue! on Google's X Files Vanish · · Score: 3, Informative

    You can see a working version (minus the images) at the google cache of the page. It is really neat. Sucks that it was taken down.

  4. Time to find someone else? on Aftermath Of Failed Electronic Voting · · Score: 2, Informative

    After all this crap, isn't it time that Diebold (and similar companies) be dropped, and another one (preferably FOSS) be chosen? Or is that solution too obvious? I wonder how many more elections fall victim to stupid and/or rigged coding....

  5. Support food banks on Biodegradable Cell Phones Sprout Into Flowers · · Score: 2, Informative

    I'd rather support a foodbank. I think this process utilizes the entire phone instead of just the case.

  6. FreeMind on Software for Making Company Diagrams? · · Score: 2, Informative

    I played around with this. Not very useful for me, but it may work for you. It doesn't export to postscript, but it exports to HTML. :-\ Give it a look. http://freemind.sourceforge.net/

  7. Re:Wasn't this covered before here? on Electric Armor Tested For Light Armored Vehicles · · Score: 1

    It was, and posted by michael too. You don't see these kind of dupes very often.

  8. Re:Dupe on 64-Bit Rugrat Virus Emerges · · Score: 1

    Same. The on-duty editor got at least two emails about the dupe. *shakes his head*

  9. Repost on 64-Bit Rugrat Virus Emerges · · Score: 4, Informative

  10. Snowcrash, Winamp, and Shoutcast on Streaming MP3s on Demand? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Use a combination of Snowcrash, Winamp, and SHOUTcast. I haven't tried snowcrash with Winamp 5, but it should work.

    I believe SHOUTcast has a streaming-on-demand feature, but it's not as nice as Snowcrash.

  11. Re:How can this work? on Spamholes Fighting Spammers · · Score: 2, Informative
    STOP wasting money and resources on using incresingly sophisticated anti-spam techniques. Re-direct this money into basic education for users, including short courses on:

    1. How to identify a spam (People are proven to be far better at pattern recognition than Bayesian models).
    2. How not to click on a spam.
    3. How to delete a spam.

    Add to that 4. How not to give your email address to spammers.

    We have to protect our email addresses. The email-obscuring feature on Slashdot is one way to do so. Another is to teach users that not all websites which request your email aren't going to use it to send spam.
