  1. Re:It's funny cuz on U.S. World's Foremost Spam Nation In 2004 · · Score: 1

    You're reversing it: it's the only country that really needs legislation against spam, we could live with the rest....

  2. Obviously on U.S. World's Foremost Spam Nation In 2004 · · Score: 2, Informative

    If you'd ask me, 90% or more comes from the US, through relays all over the world...

  3. Kryptonite? Not sold here I think! on Kryptonite U-Lock Security Flaw · · Score: 1

    Seriously, here in the Netherlands you also have to look after your bike, and I've never seen a lock like that, i.e. with that kind of mechanism. For some info on good and bad locks see http://www.vandermeer-fietsplus.nl/nieuw/pagina_ac cessoires/fietsslot.html (bablefish anyone?) No, I'm not affiliated, and I keep my Koga-Miyata indoors while not riding it.

  4. What if we just all go for SPF and ignore MS? on OSI And Microsoft Negotiating Over Sender ID · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I still haven't heard what's wrong with SPF. The only thing seems to be that a decision has to be made that `we' all support it. So if we just take that decision, at some point MS has no choice but to follow, putting them back where they belong, in the back seat.

  5. Re:Funny... on Senator Blacklisted by No-Fly List · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Absolutely! The weird thing with blacklists is that people travelling on a fake identity will never be on the list....

  6. Re:S3 is a bad idea IMHO on ACPI and S3 Sleep on the Linux Desktop? · · Score: 1

    If you get bad RAM you're screwed anyway! (Unless you have the badram-patch in your kernel of course.)

  7. Re:also.... on New Internet Speed Record · · Score: 1

    Indeed, when LHC comes to life, that's at CERN in Geneva... But I thought the fast link to California went to San Diego, not LA?

  8. This is very old news, isn't it? on Technology Spontaneously Combusts In Sicily · · Score: 1

    This was in the news about more than a month ago already. And last thing I heard was that the problem disapeared as soon as the village got flooded by journalists.

  9. Is there a 64-bit JVM for it? on Yellow Dog Linux Gets 64-Bit Version For G5 · · Score: 4, Insightful

    For me it would be really useful if there's also a 64-bit JVM for it.
