  1. Re:A spreadsheet or a spreadsheet program? on Apple Making a Spreadsheet? · · Score: 1

    Heck, I'm a 21 year old "kid" and I didn't know that!

  2. Re:Possible with one Memory Stick Duo + card reade on Sony PSP 1.50 Swap Trick · · Score: 1

    I was thinking some kind of PDA. Without homebrew software the PSP does games, movies, music, and photos...and even those are pretty limited (only very specific movie and MP3 formats, etc). A Palm or PocketPC can do all that except for the games plus a whole lot more. I'm not a big gamer anyway.

  3. Database of games which force firmware upgrades? on Sony PSP 1.50 Swap Trick · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Someone should create a database that reports which games force updates so those of us who want to keep our PSP at 1.50 can do so without guessing which games we can and cannot use.

  4. Possible with one Memory Stick Duo + card reader? on Sony PSP 1.50 Swap Trick · · Score: 1

    This is awesome, I was considering selling my PSP to get something more versatile, but think I'll keep it for awhile longer.

    If you only have one memory stick would it be possible to load the first file using a card reader, insert, get it set up, remove, load the second file, insert, hit the button?

  5. Inspiring and time wasting on Math with Cohen and Groening · · Score: 1

    I decided to memorize the first 100 digits of pi after reading this article ... thank you slashdot for wasting an extra couple hours of my time ...

  7. Re:India Outsourcing? on India Will Need to Recruit 120,000 Foreigners · · Score: 1

    So what now? India is going to start outsourcing? Like say american workers? haha

    then it'd be like american companies are outsourcing to india, who are inturn outsourcing to americans!

    but everyone knows Indian workers are cheaper, so the outsourced outsourced Americans will outsource to India ... oh wait

    Product outSourceToIndia(Project work) {
    return outSourceToAmerica(work);
    }

    Product outSourceToAmerica(Project work) {
    return outSourceToIndia(work);
    }

    void main() {
    Project work = new Project();
    Product complete = outSourceToIndia(work);
    }

    crap why isn't it working?!?!!

  11. Please don't Slashdot the flower on Extinct Wildflower Found In California · · Score: 1

    It could be the first instance of physically slashdotting something.

  12. Good old days of swapping ROMs to upgrade software on A Cheap and Portable Word Processor? · · Score: 1

    I remember in middle school at the computer teacher's TA I was given the task of opening up a couple dozen Alphasmarts and replacing the ROM chips to upgrade the software.

    It doesn't even seem that long ago.

  16. Re:Steve Jobs said it himself on Apple Release Mega Patch to Fix 19 Flaws · · Score: 1

    Alright I didn't believe you so I went back and watched it here: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/wwdc04/ (its at 40:10) He said "OS X is the number one UNIX in the world" although before that he did say "It's UNIX based"

  17. Steve Jobs said it himself on Apple Release Mega Patch to Fix 19 Flaws · · Score: 2, Informative

    I don't remember the exact words, but during the WWDC 2004 keynote Steve Jobs himself said Mac OS X was the worlds biggest UNIX distribution.

  20. Re:Third party firmware on Ars Reviews AirPort Express · · Score: 1

    There is for the LinkSys WRT54G, as mentioned in TFA, not sure about D-Link, maybe if it supports WDS.

  21. Xbox modchips might not technically be illegal on UK High Court Rules Modchips Illegal · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure how PS2 modchips work, but with Xbox most modchips ship with a completely legal BIOS called Cromwell (or some others), which is based on Linux, not a hacked MS BIOS. Cromwell itself cannot be used to play "backups" or anything else, the only thing it can do is flash the modchip with a BIOS that the user provides (usually obtained from IRC or otherwise). Technically the modchip sold in this form shouldn't be illegal, since it cannot be used for illegal purposes without modification. Right?

  22. Re:Electronica on IT's Musical Habits · · Score: 1

    "Electronica" is another term made up by the media and others to describe "electronic music". "Electronic music" makes a lot of sense...since most of it is made electronically...
