  3. Re:Tips on Banner Ad on Myspace Serves Adware to 1 Million · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't people on Windows have Windows Media Player installed? That always tends to work, like it or not.

    U-Tube....but they yse a version of Flash that doesn't exist on Linux. So one might as wekk not have flash. Why do they use flash to deliver video anyways?

    Any idea how addign that many rules (for each host) to your iptables would affect lookup speed?

  6. Re:Pro IE 7 on Browser Comparison - Firefox 2 b1, IE7 b3, Opera 9 · · Score: 1

    You could just not install the extensions. Esp. since you wouldn't have them in IE7.

  7. Any idea why? on Scientists Coax Nerve Fibers To Regrow · · Score: 2, Insightful
    This is in part because nerves in the brain and spinal cord, unlike those in the rest of the body, fail to grow new nerve fibers. Nerves in the brain and spinal cord are surrounded by signals from other cells in the injured area that stop them from growing.
    Has any research been done to find out why the body didn't/hasn't adapted to work around the reasoning for said nerves not regrowing?
  8. Re:Legal has nothing to do with it on Should freedb's Data Be Public Domain? · · Score: 1

    Then this needs to be done outside the USA then.

  9. Re:Weird information on More Wii-mote Info · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Dude, get yourself some rechargeable batteries. They are great for wireless devices (keyboards, mice, mpo3 players).

  10. This is pretty much greed at this point on UK Recording Industry Wants Allofmp3 An Issue at G8 · · Score: 1

    I hadly doubt these guys made it to the top being "good". Yet they seem to pull out all the stops to stop someone else making a buck. I hadly think these guys are struggling to pay their bills. Maybe they should take a chill pill or something.

  11. Re:Human Powered? on MS Research Automates Search Engine Spam Hunt · · Score: 1

    Well here's hoping good management, and possibly a "weekend review" process would be helpful. Monday to Friday, 8 - 5, the search using popular keywords (and misspellings) compile a list, look for similar IP, host, etc. At the end of the week, have a 2nd party veryify the reults, Monday morning put in the block, rince, repeat.

  12. Re:Pointless on Geographic Mapping of Emotions · · Score: 1

    Any idea when the new Law 7 order seasons start?

  13. Human Powered? on MS Research Automates Search Engine Spam Hunt · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Seems to me that a group of 10 people could easily flag a large amount of spam websites. Is this currently being done by any major engine?

    One can only wonder how different things would have been. we need the 'what if' machine.

  18. most stupid place to see racism yet on Sony Pulls Controversial PSP Ad, Issues Apology · · Score: 1

    The only possibly racist thign about those ads was that the woman had an afro, then again maybe afros are popualr among black european women.

  19. Re:Vista still "protective" of keeping it's malwar on Hack in the Box Meets Windows Vista · · Score: 1

    Sad how you completely missed the point.

  20. This seems a sad measure of current pop culture on MySpace #1 US Destination Last Week · · Score: 1

    That a website, employing no really innovative means of communication, no real creativity, and little hope for any constructive use can be so popular among regular (non geek, non nerd) young people is as I see it a sign of nothing good. I suppose in a decase or two we will see the results of such.

  21. Re:Worthless. on MySpace #1 US Destination Last Week · · Score: 1

    People engage in pointless things all the time, being popular does not have much to do with wether it is or is not pointless. Frankly I find the entire story soemwhat depressing.

  22. Is it techically possbly . . . on How Washington Will Shape the Internet · · Score: 1

    . . . to route the entire internet around the USA? I am not knowledgeable on the details of the functioning of the internet, so I ask. Basically, I am just wondering if it is possible.

  23. Maybe some people aren't suppose to reproduce on Mice Produced Using Artificial Sperm · · Score: 1

    If your body is so messed up you can't make an egg or sperm, maybe you aren't suppose to reproduce. Or are these targetted at homesexual couples?

  24. I wonder . . . on BPI Requests ISPs Suspend Suspected Filesharers · · Score: 4, Insightful

    What these kind of organisations would say if pirating were to totally dissappear and they still kept "losing" money.

  25. Re:Where's KCash? on GnuCash 2.0.0 Released · · Score: 1

    I think that is because some of use dispise GTK....for the looks at least.
