  1. Re:So where's it at now? on Apple's 500 Million Songs · · Score: 2, Informative

    On the front page of http://www.apple.com/ Apple.com

  2. Hmm... on ICANN Won't Get DNS Root Servers · · Score: 1, Informative

    We allow countries to have their domain, what else do you want? We (US) invented the internet (actually more specifically, Al Gord did), but the United States invented it, we want to control it.

    okay.. now seriously...I think each country should have their its own root DNS server. (France should own .fr)...
    But what I think is funny, is how the mainstream media is portraying this. By not telling people that these are just the DNS servers, the world things that there are 13 computers in the United States that control the whole internet.

    While that may be true about the naming conventions (DNS) it is certainly not true that 13 computers "control" the internet. Now we have Joe Homeuser thinking that his bank tranactions pass through one of these root 13, and that the government sniffs it all.

    (on the other hand, who is to say that they don't...)

  6. Re:hahah on A Review of the 128KB Macintosh · · Score: 1

    Totally agree. The Mac (IMHO) changed the world and how we interact with it. I mean look at us now, we're sitting here talking about it... on a computer. Very interesting.

    On a personal note, I'm rather jealous of your desk. That being said....

  8. hahah on A Review of the 128KB Macintosh · · Score: -1, Redundant

    Slashdot is becoming like CNN.

    No news? Lets drag up some old shi* and call it "historical"

    HAHAHAHAHHAHA.. Oh, sorry.

    I haven't had ANY problems with Windows. It NEVER crashes
    you're shi**ing me right?
    Hell it Blue Screened on BILL at a Presentation!
    security has never been an issue as long as I don't blindly click OK just make dialog boxes go away
    You don't use your computer online do you?

  11. Re:Confused on Ballmer: 'We'll catch Google' · · Score: 1

    Google should Wiki some stuff. If you search for something and you find what you need like on page 3, you should be able to "Mod" it up so that the search becomes more relevant.

    Yes i know the implications, spammers and the like would write automated stuff to automod their sites up.. i know i know.. but.. good idea right?

  12. Confused on Ballmer: 'We'll catch Google' · · Score: 2, Informative

    I guess I am confused. Why must everyone "beat" Google? Isn't that what competition is about? You can't beat Google. Google didn't invent searching, but they did perfect it, and now with their newer products they are taking searching to a whole new level.

    I don't understand why Balmer is all about trying to conquer every market, by shipping substandard products just so they have some kind of market share out there SOMEWHERE.

    Some other market did that!! Anyone remember No Limit Records? Master P? C Murder, any of those guys?

    They made their millions by shipping tons of substandard product becuase Rap was so empty after the deaths of Tupac and Biggie, that they were hungry for anything. Eventually, (yes the company still exists) but no one buys their music. Because it is sub-par.

    Eventually Computer consumers will wake up and find the substandard OS'es (Windows) to be finally faulty (I think that's happening now) and people will transition to Quality products (Such as Apple).
    Note to Microsoft: Quit trying to conquer everything and work on one thing at a time. Namely, right now, your OS!!

  13. Re:Ironically on 'DVD Jon' Breaks Google Video Lock · · Score: 1

    Doesn't count if you have to go searching for it!

  14. Ironically on 'DVD Jon' Breaks Google Video Lock · · Score: 3, Funny

    Ironically, there is nothing on Google News concerning it.

    Anyone else notice that Yahoo Search looks and acts EXACTLY like Google's? (That's probably redudant...)

    I am just waiting for Revenge of the Sith to hit Google Video.

  15. In other news on Internet to Pakistan Goes Down · · Score: 5, Funny

    "...Internet Attacks from the Middle East seemed to grind to a halt today..."

  16. Now why? on Opera: Firefox User Figures 'Inflated' · · Score: 1

    Now that's just stupid to identify itself as Explorer. It's NOT explorer, it's Opera. If Opera hadn't had made such a stupid remark in their code to do that by default, we would have accurate numbers.

  17. Correct me if I am wrong on Codeweavers to Support Mac OS X on Intel · · Score: 1

    This is the company that built a GUI on top of WINE, and it only works with certain programs? I was running Fedora Core 3, and a Trouble Ticketing client that I used to use (Remedy) worked quite well on Codeweavers, however, Microsoft Office's Access didn't. Now, I know there are all kinds of problems with Access's operation on Linux.

    I think that this will be a step in the right direction to enable personnel to be able to run Windows programs on Mac OS X, in turn greatly improving it's user base.

    Games. More Games to OS X.

  21. Oh great. on LA Times Pulls Wikitorial, Blames Slashdot · · Score: 1

    Good idea, poorly implemented. Had absolutely nothing to do with Slashdot. People fear the unknown and then therefore blame it on them. /shakes head\ wiki's encylopedia seems to be working quite well, what's your problem LA Times? Don't blame us, or what you don't know, just realize that you poorly implemented a good idea and shutup.

  22. definition on Retro Machines Key to Rescuing Old Data · · Score: 2, Insightful

    What is the definition of a "retro" machine? My blog here is running on, what i consider to be, a retro machine. It's a 233 recently reformatted with Fedora Core 3. (Yes I know 4 is out)

    While many many not think this is very old, I guess it's basically because I can't find a way to hook up my Tandy 1000 to the internet, (or i'd have my blog on it.. that'd be funny)

  23. Re:Violation of My Privacy? on Hunting for Botnet Command and Controls · · Score: 1

  25. 50 in tv's on Consumers Prefer Movies At Home · · Score: 2, Insightful

    That's because when you have the ability to control and afford a 50in + TV (I think I saw a 72 the other day. jesus) it's basically the same as the movie theater, plus you don't have to deal with people yakkin on cell phones, you don't have to sit next to someone that stinks.. and the popcorn is low-fat.
