  1. Re:Change the name on MS-Sun Agreement Leaves Opening For OO.org Suits · · Score: 1

    Analogies are fun and easy!

  2. Re:You must feel really good now on Treo Bluetooth Bounty Efforts Unsuccessful · · Score: 1

    There's spelling rules in the English language though, and that's the one Slashdot uses.

  3. Re:DO NOT CLICK LINK SHOCKING FLASH IMAGE on Women See Colors Better · · Score: 1

    Great way to dig up a post from 3 days ago. You might find it funny, but 90% of people do not. Someone might get chronic nightmares or a heart attack, or similar.

  4. DO NOT CLICK LINK SHOCKING FLASH IMAGE on Women See Colors Better · · Score: 2, Informative

    If I ever met you, I would stab you repeatedly with a knife for not giving a warning.

  5. WMP Video download links on The Cliff Show: Epic's CliffyB Interviewed · · Score: 5, Informative
  6. Re:The RIAA is missing the point on Grokster Decision Won't Stop RIAA, MPAA Suits · · Score: 1

    Except bittorent isn't anonymous. You can see all the IP addresses of your peers download/uploading the file.

  7. Re:Zone Alarm? Blech on How Secure is Windows Firewall? · · Score: 5, Informative

    I agree. Kerio PF (even the post-trial free version) is a great tool for Windows. I've only had a problem with it on Windows ME (don't ask) where it made the system unbootable except to safe-mode.

  8. cygwin terminal on Cygwin in a Production Environment? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    If you use cygwin, make sure to get a better terminal for it. Puttycyg uses Putty's great terminal emulator for cygwin, and it works rather well.

  9. Re:That's why... on Using Copyright To Suppress Political Speech · · Score: 1

    We're gonna need to be taken over by another country and liberated before our voting system can possibly be changed to accomodate third parties.

  10. Re:Best Mod Ever: Make UT work as a Limited User on Make Something Unreal Gets Next Phase Winners · · Score: 2, Informative

    Except the license prohibits you from running it in an internet cafe, and you can install only one copy per computer for your LAN party. By the way, I'm reporting you.

  11. Please remember on The PHP Anthology - Volume I, 'Foundations' · · Score: 1

    that PHP Sucks! Have a nice day!

  12. also at on Virginia Tech "Corpse Plant" To Bloom On August 4th · · Score: 3, Informative

    This corpse flower at UCDavis is blooming in 2-3 days as well. Amazing timing.

  13. Same at UCDavis last year on Rare "Corpse Flower" Set To Bloom · · Score: 1

    UCDavis had one bloom last year as well.

  14. Re:One MAJOR factual error! on Father of DVD Gets Bitter Reward · · Score: 0, Redundant

    You must be my lost identical twin, heh. Let's see which post the fascist moderators will mod "Redundant"...

  15. Re:One MAJOR factual error! on Father of DVD Gets Bitter Reward · · Score: 2, Informative

    Actually, it doesn't stand for anything at all anymore (it's just "DVD"). See http://www.dvddemystified.com/dvdfaq.html#1.1

  16. Re:my strategy on The RIAA Sues 482 More People · · Score: 1

    Or you could just disable uploading in kazaa-lite. Start using your shift key, buddy. This isn't kuro5hin.

  17. Eclipse + Python on Eclipse Reaches Version 3.0 · · Score: 5, Informative

    If anyone's interested in Python support in Eclipse, I use and recommend pydev. It's certainly incomplete, but it has syntax highlighting, a class/method browser, realtime syntax checking, and there's a debugger which I couldn't get working.

  18. Re:Too Good to be True on Cars To Be Assembled Atom By Atom · · Score: 1

    If it was TRILLIONS, it's be easy. It's more like 10^25+ atoms

  19. Re:I'm lost on Gmail in the News · · Score: 1

    he's storing over the percentage used, moron

  20. Re:I'm lost on Gmail in the News · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and he's storing 1023 megs.

  21. Re:Kissing butt in Texas on FCC Settles Censorship Claims with ClearChannel · · Score: 1

    That's why I'm voting for the Green Party candidate (hopefully David Cobb).

    Wow, great! Thanks for keeping Bush in office.

  22. Re:OMG! on Is Caps Lock Dead? · · Score: 1

    Using shift would avoid that problem you have where you instinctively press shift on some words causing those letters to become lowercase when caps lock is on.

  23. Re:You wish! on Microsoft Receives Patent For Double-Click · · Score: 1

    Windows firefox can.

  24. Re:That's CGI, not HTML... on Programming For Terrified Adults? · · Score: 1

    Javascript can, although that's a language too.

  25. Re:Ah, but on Programming For Terrified Adults? · · Score: 1

    Sure, with a GET argument in the URL.
