  1. Re:Encryption on MPAA Developing Digital Fingerprinting Technology · · Score: 1

    Plus it would add network lag, resource allocation, and to much of a PITA for the ISPs if they cared. What do they do with the European and Asian services that couldn't give two shits?

  2. Re:Encryption on MPAA Developing Digital Fingerprinting Technology · · Score: 1

    WHy don't we all switch to linux, put up accounts for SFTP through SSH for anyone, and share our files that way? Encryption to the max. And if the *AA get in without us telling them our un/pw, then thats breaking into the system.

  3. Re:virus? on Digital Life and Evolution · · Score: 1

    WEll first, that's not a question its a statement. And the viruses are hard to make by scientists im sure. Remeber, they are not computer virus.

  4. Hacked on LokiTorrent Shut Down · · Score: 1

    It looks to me like they got hacked. I don't think they would put up such a message. Even if they did, I guess the MPAA made them put up their generic "gay mesasge".

  5. ugg on Why MS is Not Opening More Source Code · · Score: 1

    no wonder they get nothing done! ms probably codes more comments than code...

  6. Time != $$$ on Windows Longhorn Beta for June Release · · Score: 1

    For microsoft this time, and for the next OS, and for all the previous ones, they should wait until they have a functional, working piece of software. Wait for a 2010 release. The community as a whole will be better off! And who knows, by then Linux may go mainstream!

  7. uggg not again on Microsoft to Buy Anti-Virus Software Firm · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't it be the goal of an OS to protect their software? Why charge? Stupid M$

  8. Re:fp on Walmart Expands Low-End Linux Notebook Offerings · · Score: 4, Insightful

    its fine, especially for a web user period. or a basic word processor. or maybe even for music...

  9. More Options on Freevo Developers Interviewed · · Score: 0, Redundant

    That's good that O'Rielly is making somethingr for Linux. Now one has mroe choices and this package seems to have several things incorperated into one, which is a good thing.

  10. Re:Obligatory on Running Windows Viruses Under Linux · · Score: 1

    Has anyone attemped to create a vehicle virus yet? Im sure it is possible! and can potentially be danderous, so im sure something like NAV for Autos is a valid prog for the future.

  11. Talk about simple on Machine Learns Games · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Doesn't this pretty much invole picking a random action? Rock, Paper, or Scissors. Or at least thats how I always played!

  12. Re:Ruby on Rolling With Ruby On Rails · · Score: 2, Funny

    Figured that may be the case. Rubies and Perls are all gems!

  13. Ruby on Rolling With Ruby On Rails · · Score: 0

    Thats interesting. Never heard of Ruby before but it seems very useful especially with the DB integration.

  14. Re:Understandable... on Ex-Lover Deletes MMOG Character · · Score: 1

    Soo true! lmfao. If only I had one OR the other....

  15. HP on BigTux Shows Linux Scales To 64-Way · · Score: 1

    I like the way HP is taking their software distributing with offering Linux as a solution along with AMD processors. Dell attempts it but only for servers. HP I believe does the same, but at least them seem like they care more. nd that is what matters if we are going to be pushing Linux into enterprises AND the home... Hooray for HP!

  16. Re:Geez... on BigTux Shows Linux Scales To 64-Way · · Score: 1

    Naa. Gotta think like a cluster. All at the same time means less time and less work for you. Even though 64 1's may be more fun! lol

  17. Re:HD3000 on Which HDTV Capture Card? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ATI's software always seems to be a bit sub-par. I didn't even know they made HT TV tuners to begin with, but I guess that makes sense. I have an ATI TV tuner in my GFX card, but just don't go that route [if you had the idea]. Go for the pure card that makes sense to you to record well and is made by a known company...

  18. Re:Quick Note on iPod Shuffle Deconstructed · · Score: 1

    But do you have your free Mini Mac? [See below...]

  19. Google on Picasa 2.0 Released, Reviewed · · Score: 1

    Gogle really seems to be expanding into alot of different technologies recently. I'm not sure if they have a certain plan or are just trying to overall help people. Anyway, I think they are a company with good intentions. This Picasa seems like it can be very useful on top of Google's other technologies...

  20. Biotech patent? on Patents and Open Source Biotech · · Score: 1

    Ok, and how do you suppose biotech devices to be open source? Oh boy! Now we have to look forward to programmed HIV viruses...

  21. Re:Ping Times on US Air Force Building Space Router · · Score: 1

    THat is because cell phones suck, do not use satellites, and in relation, are unreliable as satelites, military radio, amateur radio, etc...

  22. Re:BPL is not new on Gigabit Transfer Rates Over Power Lines? · · Score: 1

    See now, I would think that is a much better idea. Why did they not think of that in the first place, I mean even I had the idea! Not only does it solve several problems such as:
    +Hams not complaining about HF interferrence
    +Other radio interferrence
    +An urgent need to upgrade wiring
    but it also seems as if microwaves would need the same amount or less repeaters [logically speaking anyway]. That is the way BPL should progress.

  23. Seems Monopolistic on iTunes User Sues Apple Over Lock-In · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Apple is, and has seemed, to be a monopolisitc type company. Take their computing line for example. The hardware is designed and manufactured by Apple, the software developed and sold by Apple, and upgrades and most extra hardware sold by Apple. Support and apps are mostly through Apple as well. Their OS does not even have a port to an x86 based system, even though proposed several times. They have their own "AirPort" 802.11 systems and technologies such as firewire, which fortunatly are open to everyone but not widespread.

    The deal with the iPod is just the same. They would like to keep eveything pertinent to themselves. If it is possible, they will go on as long as they can. But now with this suit, it will likely change. They should use some format that can be exported and then saved onto any player or transfered elsewhere. There are SourceForge projects that do this, but it should be native...

  24. Blogs... on Blog reading up 58% in U.S. · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Figures that most are teens too, like me. They are obsessed with each others lives. Oh well, what can I say? I guess it is interesting and others are technical and informative!

  25. Re:Broadband over power lines on Ham Radio Served as Main Link to Disaster Area · · Score: 2, Insightful

    How capable? Very. The HF band that they use [3-30MHz] allows radio to bounce off the Ionosphere and travel all over the world. That is why that is useful. Now as for the BPL, that is localized. Who cares anyway? I mean I am a HAM at 16, so it does still survive. But it also is useful. You don't seem to know enough about the situation of radio and therefore should not really mock it. BPL I could care less about and have no idea how this message brought it up. But anyway, satelite phones are something that amateurs can use themselves considering there are Amateur Satalites. Hell the International Space Stations talks to us every day! Talk about advantages. And on theses satellite uplinks, we do not pay the $5.00 per minute that most need to pay... So hah. Amateur Radio is useful, and does lead to alot of advances in radio. They will stay into ine future and they will help out in emergencies whenever possible.
