  1. Re:Awww, rich kid busted for using proxy, how sad. on Legal Actions of School Against a Proxy's Host? · · Score: 1

    How do you know he is reach? And how does his financial status come into play?

  2. OT: Good CSS Reading? on A New Era in CSS Centric Design? · · Score: 1

    Slightly offtopic, but can anyone suggest some good reading on CSS Centric design? Also, what practices should a good web dev put into place in a modern website? Thank you.

  3. Re:right on! on Eric Schmidt on Net Neutrality · · Score: 1

    I heard of Yahoo turning in reporters. But not Google. Shame on you for just saying such things.

    Which poor guy is that?

  5. Re:Pirates: Think about the people you're hurting on AllofMp3.com Breaks Silence · · Score: 1

    There is an episode of Southpark I think you should see.

  6. Re:Enough of the FUD, here are some facts. on AllofMp3.com Breaks Silence · · Score: 1

    But still. Given the opportunity to pay either AllofMp3.com or the RIAA...i would happily choose AllOfMp3.com. By the way...white male, living in a fairly well of area right?

    Kinda missed the OP's point completely didn't you.

  8. Why not pictures? on Giant Ocean Vortex Discovered · · Score: 0, Redundant

    This seems to me to have a high "cool factor". How can there be no pictures?

  9. Re:not doing that on Review of Episodic Content, Half-Life 2 Episode One · · Score: 1

    Interesting. fair of the NSA asside, here's the link the listing (and ticket prices) of the Cinema which I use (when I do _have_ to go to the Cinema): Cinemark. And aside from the usual, near inevitable, nuisances of being in a Cinema. The screens and large (dare I say huge) and plentiful. And the seats are comfortable. Save for the VIP section however, they do not screen guests - this has not yet been a problem for me. I can only wonder why the significant difference in price.

    BTW...a spell checker in the post editing page would be nice

  10. Re:use decent names! on Fedora Core 5 Re-spins Available · · Score: 1

    Well, it is niether an 'update' or a 'service pack' (the latter of which might have been useful however). So niether of these would have been a good name. While the name could subjectively be lacking, it is not without root in any logic. I believe the process of creating the ISO is automated, and it would be fair to say that some program 'spins' the ISO into existence. The first I saw of this was in the headlines of the latest "Fedora News Weekly" (a newsletter). And the headline read "Fedora Core 5 Re-Spin 20060523 Released". I immediately understood what it meant.

  11. Everytime RedHat is mentioned... on Fedora Core 5 Re-spins Available · · Score: 1

    trhe trolls come out. I must say, the heads at RedHat at bigger men than I. The very people they are trying to help (While making money for their business of course) shout them down every chance they get with FUD, I might have called it quits and lived out my life in quiet retirement hacking away on my own. Pity really.

  12. Re:ever notice how it is always the same on Fedora Core 5 Re-spins Available · · Score: 1

    Feel free not to download the pactches for your distro of choice Mr. Troll.

  13. Re:Just DVDs on Fedora Core 5 Re-spins Available · · Score: 1

    Or... download the DVD respin iso, and install from that using the Resue Disc CD to boot.

  14. Re:Cruft, Cruft and more bloody Cruft! on Fedora Core 5 Re-spins Available · · Score: 1

    I am not sure who modded you insightful, but this has been doable for a long time now. Also I understand that the installer is being modified to allow for full internet installs so that you grab the newer packages straight from the mirrors when you install. The base structure to do this was put into FC5, so I would expect this enhancement for FC6.

  15. Re:not doing that on Review of Episodic Content, Half-Life 2 Episode One · · Score: 1

    You need to find yourself a less expensive cinema.

  16. Re:Don't Mod Things Troll Just Because You Disagre on Vast DNA Bank Pits Policing Vs. Privacy · · Score: 1

    I don't know, but if I had mod points, it would be hard not to mod down a statement post which says "Rapists leave DNA and not fingerprints."

  17. Re:Well... on Vast DNA Bank Pits Policing Vs. Privacy · · Score: 1

    If that scares you, I think you need to up your paranoia levels a bit.

  18. Re:What a dolt. on Vast DNA Bank Pits Policing Vs. Privacy · · Score: 1

    It may be a different issue, but it is certainly not a _whole_ other issue. The same blood for the tests today can be used for DNA profiling.

  19. Re:Who cares? Most music video is JUNK anyway! on Viral Music Videos A Problem For RIAA · · Score: 1

    I never really understood the concept of what is essentially _watching_ music anyways. I will be the first to admit that I have seen, and sought out a few music videos. But I believe I could count all on two hands had I kept count.

  20. Re:My thoughts... on Pirates, Web 2.0, and Hundred Dollar Laptop · · Score: 1

    1) Doing what someone else wants just because they want it is way beyond dumb

    2) The people suing in no way _need_ more money. On the contrary, maybe they need to be homeless for a few weeks.

  21. Re:the $100 laptop is really coming along... on Pirates, Web 2.0, and Hundred Dollar Laptop · · Score: 1

    GNOME you say? I was hoping they would go with something lighter, such as XFCE , or the KDE/QT equivalent.

  22. Re:Who says that the truth is in the middle? on Government May Help Bells Defend Against Wiretap Suits · · Score: 1
    I agree, it is a compromise. But nobody wants to be unflinchingly truthful. You will never get anywhere as an extreme truthteller.

    On slashdot have truer words rarely rarely been spoken.

  23. Re:Comforting to enemies on Government May Help Bells Defend Against Wiretap Suits · · Score: 1

    The little green men have been attacking you again in your sleep I see.

  24. Re:Can you hide crimes behind a veil of secrecy? on Government May Help Bells Defend Against Wiretap Suits · · Score: 1

    Yes. And I believe that is the underlying intention.
