  1. timeline on How the Year Looked On Slashdot · · Score: 1

    Maybe you should provide your own timeline feature.

  2. What about FB? on Russian Hacker Selling 1.5M Facebook Accounts · · Score: 1

    It's pretty clear to me that the hacker actually broke Facebook security and stole bulk data. Question is, what is Facebook doing about it? Shouldn't they be chasing after this in some way? After all, it's their service I'm using ...

  3. Internet money on Intel To Challenge Android With Moblin For Mobile Devices · · Score: 1

    The reason for not using Android is of course the Android market. Should Intel want some of that internet money, they need to create their own app market. Which they did.

  4. Re:Why the hate towards bt? on Google Releases the SDK For Version 1.6 of Android · · Score: 3, Informative

    There's no hate, just a matter of time. From http://source.android.com/projects/bluetooth-faq: "Q. When will Java Bluetooth API's be released in an SDK? A. We are not ready to announce a release target for Bluetooth API's. We do understand there is demand for a Bluetooth API, and it is a top priority for the Android Bluetooth team."

  5. 8 years is a long time on After 8 Years of Work, Be-Alike Haiku Releases Official Alpha · · Score: -1, Troll

    Question is: Does anyone care anymore?

  6. Hmmm on Windows 7 Will Be Free For a Year · · Score: 1

    I bet this will convince some of the PC dealers to ship with Windows 7 instead of XP.

  7. Re:GPL offered protection from competitors on Is Apache Or GPL Better For Open-Source Business? · · Score: 1

    If you're that afraid you'll loose to competition, than you'd better not open source your code. But, really now, suppose that a new business wants to compete with you by using your own code. This means they'll have to 1. Understand the market 2. Hire/Use existing developers to understand the code and be able to create new features 3. Spend a lot of money to create a competitive brand (Hey, this shiny new thingie i've created for you is the best, and you shouldn't go to those guys i've copied from and know what they're doing) 4. Make sure those code better and faster than yours Leaving all this aside, have you ever seen this in action?

  8. Re:Applets are still used for games on Will Oracle Keep Funding Sun's Pet Java Projects? · · Score: 1

    I don't think so. Even Yahoo is pulling the plug on their games (e.g. chess) and is using Flash instead.

  9. Re:I2P vs TOR on Anonymous Network I2P 0.7.2 Released · · Score: 4, Funny

    i just googled for the above text by mistake, and google already found the entry comment. Is this fast or what?

  10. cdgeorge on NYC Wants Ideas For "Taxi Technology 2.0" · · Score: 1

    How about free internet? That would make up for being caught in traffic.

  11. Big surprise on US Electricity Grid Reportedly Penetrated By Spies · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I'm sure China and Russia are having the same kind of problem.

  12. Re:I could be out of line... on WineConf 2005 Sets Deadline for Wine 0.9 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I guess this is because it's very important to set goals. While the deadline in itself is kind of annoying, one can afford to wait for the perfect software while it has a (better) running version.

  13. neti samples on NETI@home Data Analyzed · · Score: 1

    From what I've seen the real challenge would be to find significant samples. I don't imagine crackers would go for the neti software.
