  1. Word Perfect on WordPerfect Back From the Wilderness · · Score: 5, Informative

    Well wordperfect used to lead, I guess while its not leading anymore they are still cranking out copies regardless. They do have a good plan for OEM on new computers though. Alot of compaqs and hps have wordperfect installed on them. $0.02

  2. Nothings private on Online Search Engines Lift Cover Of Privacy · · Score: 1

    Nothing's private anymore anyways. Bleh. What's this world coming to.

  3. Re:Maybe that law isn't so badly written after all on Alan Ralsky Gripes About Can Spam Act · · Score: 1

    Ahh, a faithful Mozilla Thunderbird user. We need more people like you around, and less of the mindless Outlook/Outlook Express users that are actually responding to the spam they receive, which just happen to be Anti-Spam tools...

  4. Coolant Obsession on Pushing P4 to 5.25GHz with Liquid Nitrogen · · Score: 1

    I remember years ago it was always talked about using Liquid Nitrogen to cool CPUs and it was like the one thing that a person could do that would be considered by the entire community as "wow." I mean if you could overclock that little 233mhz AMD up to 500 or so by sticking some liquid nitrogen AND figure out a way to keep all of the condensation problems away it was pretty cool. Now a days thoes problems have all been solved and Liquid Nitrogen is cheap. Now on to Beowulf, the term beowulf means very little, and it would be more accurate to just call it a cluster rather than a "beowulf cluster". At least thats from my experience in clustering.

  5. Re:What to do with the kill on Alan Ralsky Gripes About Can Spam Act · · Score: 1

    Mmmm, I think we have ourselves a business! We can can the spammers after we skin them and ship them over in a nice little alluminum tin...somehow that sounds familar.

  6. Re:So that's why! on Alan Ralsky Gripes About Can Spam Act · · Score: 1

    It might have slowed down a little, but what does come though is usually the p0rn and illegal spam anyway. It's slowing, but only getting worse in quality...hmm..Quality of spam...hehe..

  7. Open Hunting Season on Alan Ralsky Gripes About Can Spam Act · · Score: 2, Funny

    Hmm, looks like we need to set up a open hunting season on spammers. Too bad they don't taste too good, never was fond of SPAM myself.

  8. Quite Amazing on PCLinuxOS 2K4: Mandrake Meets The Live CD · · Score: 1, Insightful

    It's very rare to have a new linux distrobution hit the top 10 on distrowatch ever. Count this distro in your books as a record breaker. But why does it have to be based on Mandrake? Boo-hoo. =)

  9. Re:Mr car on OnStar Considered Harmful · · Score: 1

    Tinfoil?! What are you living in the dark ages? Nobody wears tinfoil anymore! Get the new Titanium BrainSavers(c). Heheh. Do you know where you Gallywampus is? http://www.stupidmedia.com

  10. Privacy is meaningless... on OnStar Considered Harmful · · Score: 5, Interesting

    You see this all more and more often, our privacy is pushed back to make room for more and more "helpful services." I wouldn't be surprised if OnStar would report you to the police if you just happened to go over the speed limit or some other activity. Pfft, for all we know we could have to submit to random memory scans in the future as a new wave of "drug tests" that can do much more. Where is our privacy now?

  11. Great... on Hackers on Linux's Exciting Desktop Future · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Looks like even more work for linux-a-la-desktop is on the way. Sure makes for an interesting future for linux in the average user home.

  12. Re:The only reason this is news... on Gentoo rsync Server Compromised [updated] · · Score: 2, Informative

    The server wasn't actually running Gentoo Linux from what I have read.
