  1. Re:How long... on Nintendo DS Network · · Score: 1

    I know you're all expecting the obligatory "Does it run Linux?" comment, so here we go. How long until I can run Linux on it?

    It's bound to have an even better processor then the current GameBoy Advance systems (which Linux should be able to run on) and has built in wi-fi, how 'bout it? It would be so cool to have a mini-distribution, pull out nmap or something, go wardriving a bit....

  2. Re:To be the Paparazzi on Canon's new 16.7MP Digital SLR, with WiFi · · Score: 1

    Makes sense that the next step from the crappy image you get on camera phones would be a high-res, wi-fi camera.

  3. Re:Pirate to Pirate? on Curing a Corporate Virus Infection · · Score: 2, Funny

    So should I be saying "FU!" to the people that steal the games I work on or should I be saying "FU!" to myself for being such a whore that I want to have a house for myself and my wife, food on our table, clothes in our closet, and money with which to enjoy our lives?

    According to you I'm a horrible horrible person for not working my life away to let you have all the fun you want while I live in squalor. Gee, thanks. I don't understand how I completely misunderstood my place in life all these years! You, the one with no talents but a freely available file sharing program get everything while I, the educated, hard working person with a great idea and the means to produce it must be resigned to a life of crap.

    Do you enjoy going through live being a complete and total self-centered, cheap ass bastard?

    Yes and yes. If it's not too much to ask, could you make your games open-source and stop what you're doing?

  4. Re:6 GHz is not that impressive. on Overclockers Top 6GHz With A 3.6GHz-Rated P4 · · Score: 1

    The problem is, who the heck knows enough FORTRAN to go into open-firmware and overclock a G5? I've been trying to figure out....

  5. Re:Erm... on Overclockers Top 6GHz With A 3.6GHz-Rated P4 · · Score: 1

    (many years ago)

    Why on earth would anyone need a processor that fast? There's really no reason why someone would realistically use anything like that. The only people using a 100 MHz processor would be a computer scientist.

  6. Re:Wireless Chat with Others on Nintendo DS to Launch November 21 · · Score: 1

    You've obviously never been in a situation where you instant message someone, even though they're in the same same room as you. Some people are just so silly....

  7. Re:Personal attack... on Flaw in Microsoft JPEG Parsing · · Score: 1

    It's at this point that the person using their new, unpatched mac looks at a png with malicious code that takes control of their computer.

  8. chroot jail on Independent Developers Fight Piracy & Lose · · Score: 3, Informative

    You know guys, trying to delete the user's home directory or messing with them in other ways might seem clever, but what if they decide to run their program in a chroot jail?

  9. Re:RAIGA on A GMail-based blog With 1000 MB of entries · · Score: 1

    How about Redundant Array of Independent Google Accounts?

  10. Re:Eh on A GMail-based blog With 1000 MB of entries · · Score: 1

    Unless you have an awesome internet connection, it will be ridiculously slow. Plus you still need some kind of boot-loader on a disk, considering most motherboards don't support booting over gmail yet.

  11. Re:This is all well and good, but on A GMail-based blog With 1000 MB of entries · · Score: 3, Funny

    I thought Google already provided a free blogging service?

    ...and any day now I'll be able to use Blogger to store my e-mail.

    Do you have any idea how many people already do this? Macintosh is the platform for super-villains.

  13. Re:Attention slashdot management on New Lubricant Leads To Faster Hard Drives · · Score: 1

    Yeah, that will work really well.... up until hotbabes.com experiences the slashdot effect.

    But does it run..... nevermind.

  15. Re:Doesn't the DOJ have better things to do... on Justice Dept. Raids Homes of File Swappers · · Score: 5, Funny

    Well sure, let's just ignore all the kids downloading music for free and go after people out to kill us. Now who sounds absolutely ridiculous?

  16. Re:why? on How Google Could Overthrow AIM · · Score: 1

    This got me wondering.... would Google somehow make it so that whatever conversation you're having would generate text ads on the side that are "relevant to your conversation"? That would freak people out even more than text ads about your mail.

  17. Re:Reduce risk by 50%... on AM Radio Waves May Be Harmful? · · Score: 1

    So you can get distant signals only if it's night, but wouldn't it still be day on the other side of the world where you're getting the distant signals from?

  18. But why? on Next-gen Copyright-aware P2P System Whitepaper · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Why would I want to stop using current systems? FastTrack, Gnutella, and OpenFT let me exchange any files I want, and there just doesn't seem to be any reason I would want to switch.

  20. Windows Kills on Steve Jobs Undergoes Cancer Surgery · · Score: 2, Funny

    In other news, Steve Jobs dies an untimely death Monday morning when one of the hospitals computers, running Microsoft Windows, suffers a minor "glitch" and prescribes an overdose of medication. Investigations are still underway.

  21. Re:What about Apple? on FreeBSD Moves to X.Org · · Score: 1

    Well, since X.org is very similar to XFree86, they could probably do it with a patch on Panther and have it included in Tiger. If you check their website, you see that their current release corresponds to 4.3. Since they didn't upgrade to 4.4 with the license change (which happend quite a while ago), they may be preparing to do this.

  22. Arse? on Ars Reviews AirPort Express · · Score: 1

    Did anyone else mis-read that as "Arse Review Airport Express"? I swear, for a second there....

  23. Re:surprise on 4 New "Extremely Critical" IE Vulnerabilities · · Score: 1

    Actually, if a patch fixed one hole out of 4, you would have three of the original holes left, plus the five more created, which would add up to 8. So really, the original patch would have to create 6 more....
