  1. Re:2.5 years.. gad on First ZSNES Release In ~2.5 Years · · Score: 2, Informative

    Thats unfair, it most certainly is close. Just because some perfectionists are unpleased...

  2. Re:It isn't that difficult... on Ho, Ho, Ho · · Score: 1

    Yeah but I Michael Jackson is placing a bid on Santa's list.

  3. Re:Pigeon Rank (off topic) on 2004 Year-End Google Zeitgeist · · Score: 1

    Indeed, it made excelent reading.

  4. Re:frist post on MPAA Goes After More Bittorrent Site Operators · · Score: 1

    True, the ISPs stingyness with upstream can be somewhat blamed. But community trackers often accept reseed requests, which is why certain trackers going down really annoys many people.

  5. Re:frist post on MPAA Goes After More Bittorrent Site Operators · · Score: 1

    and guess what? setting up your firewall correctly and using a non standard port (ISPs sometimes throttle standard filesharing ports) and limiting your upstream to about 5k/s less than its max, you get damn goo results. Learn how to use something before saying its broken.

  6. Re:THEY KILLED DEMONOID! on MPAA Goes After More Bittorrent Site Operators · · Score: 0

    Seconded, I liked that tracker. Any news on exeem and public availability yet?

    Damn I was hoping no one would beat me to posting this link =)

  8. Re:impossible on "Dark Alleys" on the Internet · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Its a stupid waste of resources, trying to monitor the entire internet(s?).
    Terrorists and such will continue to communicate efficiently and every other net user will have no privacy, and have to put up with and inherant network strain placed by this spying crap.

  9. All these legitimate uses of bit torrent.. on Sought for MGM v. Grokster: Non-Infringing P2P Use · · Score: 1

    And yet all ISP's appear to either throttle your upload beyond a fair ratio to download or charge you through the nose for a decent upload/dowload ratio.
    Maybe it will change somewhet once enough large companies realise the cost savings on using bittorrent and higher upload rates are more demanded.

  10. Re:My problems with GIMP. on GIMP 2.2 Released · · Score: 1

    Actually, 'the gimp' is installed on my college network.

  11. do portable music players appeal?? on Digital Packrats · · Score: 0

    I am definately a 'pakrat' and I can tell you that once I have the money and mp3 players come down in pice enogh, I WILL be getting one and putting 50x its battery life worth of music on it.

  12. Re:IT DOES WORK! on New Vulnerability Affects All Browsers · · Score: 1
    Indeed it works, quite an interesting exploit.

    Heres the page that comes up in the popup instead of the actual one http://secunia.com/resultpage/

  13. Re:flash drives and longevity on Photos and Commentary On AMD's PIC · · Score: 1
    each bit 100k times?

    Do any flash drives or usb flash sticks have firmware to distribute writing so that the same bits don't get re-written more than neccisary?

  14. Re:Bio Force Gun?? on Doom Movie Update · · Score: 1
    Anyhow, I don't see why they're calling this film "Doom" anymore.

    Then, like me, you probably also don't understand the need for over 10 final fantasy games.
    Sorry for the offtopicness.

  15. Re:Lycos on Lycos Anti-Spam Screensaver Brings Down Spam Sites · · Score: 1

    The lycos website is plastered in adverts, so yeah.

  16. Re:Cringely's rule on Decentralizing Bittorrent · · Score: 1

    It is also possible to create torrents with multiple tracker info, presumably so just such a falier can be avoided.

  17. Re:Think of the convenience! on Decentralizing Bittorrent · · Score: 2, Funny
    Yeah I know just what you mean!

    I sometimes even see SCOs copyrighted material being distributed at suprnova.

    Dispicable.

    So what? We give everyone on earth anger management? even the ones who don't want to? Even third world?

  19. indoor 'revolution'? on Are Blogs the Future of Journalism? · · Score: 1
    A revolution requires that people leave their house

    Utter rubbish, wheres the grounds on this statement?
    Just because I am always indoors does not mean I can't start a revolution.

  20. Re:Cool on Coming soon: Google TV? · · Score: 1

    The ironic thing is, the replacement for searching for the remote is still to search for something. (video)

  24. Re:Vaguely off-topic drifting back to on-topic rep on Best Tools for Machinima? · · Score: 1
    Is there a piece of hardware that will take the CPU (and possibly memmory?) strain from encoding video live?

    Also, do such hardware capture cards provide benifits with software like fraps?
