  1. Re:Public Proxy != Anonymous on Do You Need to Surf Anonymously? · · Score: 1

    Anonymity requires no knowledge of who someone is AND what they do.

  2. Re:Dude! on Dell Opens a Poll On Linux Options · · Score: 4, Funny

    Mental note: Dont use Dell servers. They cant handle a slashdotting.

  3. Re:Its a start... on 3D Martian Flyover Movies · · Score: 1

    I have one too. He goes quiet whenever I prove him wrong as he tries to find some more 'conclusive evidence' that it was faked.

    So much for anonymity. You know exactly where everyone goes.

  5. Re:right to Anonymousity on Do You Need to Surf Anonymously? · · Score: 1

    Might want to catch up. Its 2007 and your government now doesnt give a shit about privacy. ;)

  6. Re:Why? what does it matter on Intel Stomps Into Flash Memory · · Score: 1

    By then it'll be like keeping a 5.25' disk. Sure I still have 3 drives lying around but I wouldnt dream of using them.

  7. Re:Uh huh. Yeah right. on Broadband Providers' Hidden Bandwidth Limits · · Score: 1

    Thats why I pay through the roof for a slow but truely unlimited connection.
    Just the fact that its guaranteed that I have constant speed makes it worth it.

  8. Re:Fine on New Mexico Might Declare Pluto a Planet · · Score: 1

    Sorry I'm posting off the top of my head. I've seen other evidence but I cant remember anything more.

  9. Re:Great on Patent Filed for Underwater GPS · · Score: 1

    Hey! Nuclear subs dont need air or fuel but their crews need food.
    Fish is a good option especially if its already cooked and ready to eat. ;)

  10. Re:I live in Europe on Wednesday Is Pi Day · · Score: 1

    The ISO date format is great for listing items by date. Thats basically the only time I use it.

    I'm a Aussie so DD/MM/YYYY is what I normally use.

  11. Re:Fine on New Mexico Might Declare Pluto a Planet · · Score: 1

    You need a slight background on how our solar system was formed to get what I meant.

    When our star formed it made a disk of spinning material. The planets came from the outer material while the inner material made the Sun.

    This just happens to make all the planets circle the sun on the same plane.
    Pluto doesnt follow the same plane as every other planet and there is other evidence to suggest it was a lump of rock caught in the Sun's gravity and not a original planet.

  12. Re:In firefox... on Opera's Slashdot Easter Egg and Speed Dial · · Score: 1

    Submit a patch. This is a critical bug which must be fixed.

  13. Re:Still won't use opera. on Opera's Slashdot Easter Egg and Speed Dial · · Score: 1

    I never knew the and tags existed. Let me guess: They arent used at all? :P

  14. Re:Adblock? on 20 Must-have Firefox Extensions · · Score: 1

    I prefer blocking them at the transparent proxy level. Good old squid does the job well.

  15. Re:Fine on New Mexico Might Declare Pluto a Planet · · Score: 1

    There are a number of Pluto sized chunks of rock floating around where Pluto is. Many of them are pretty big.
    They arent planets though. Too small. Pluto isnt a planet for that reason too.

  16. Re:Fine on New Mexico Might Declare Pluto a Planet · · Score: 1

    Go check out Pluto's orbit. It doesnt really look much like any of the other planets.
    Its at quite a big angle compared to everything else.

    Thats one reason why imho its not a planet.

  17. Re:Lost email on Windows Live OneCare Can Eat Your Email · · Score: 1

    Is compression allowed? I wonder if bzip2 could get my 6gig of email on to a CD. :)

  18. Re:Hubble censored? Data encrypted? on Prototype Telescopes Complete Key Test · · Score: 1

    Why dont you buy a telescope and see what they are trying to hide yourself?

  19. Re:trail of tears? on Windows Live OneCare Can Eat Your Email · · Score: 1

    I've never lost a email due to software malfunction using open source software. Thats 4 years of email totalling around 100,000 non-spam, non-mailing list messages.

  20. Re:trail of tears? on Windows Live OneCare Can Eat Your Email · · Score: 1

    If its like my email then it would have been 4 years of email. (No Outlook doesnt handle that number of messages - I use IMAP)

    My mum uses Outlook and she would be furious if a email got in and OneCare deleted every email.
    Fortunately for her I wont allow malware like OneCare near any of our computers.

    I dont know if you RFA but tbey didnt exactly provide any data.

  22. Re:Irony on Five Things You Can't Discuss about Linux · · Score: 1

    IMHO its asking for credit where credit is due. I dont approve of it but I do know why they are doing it.

    Remove all the GNU software from a Linux box and see what your left with.

  23. Re:Shh on Scientists Say Nerves Use Sound, Not Electricity · · Score: 1

    Yeah but nerves do too. One can say that muscles react to electricity *because* nerves do.

  24. Re:Raised eyebrows... on Scientists Say Nerves Use Sound, Not Electricity · · Score: 1

    What annoys me is they are saying 'This cant be right. Lets find something which could explain it. Oooh Sound!'.
    There isnt any actual evidence that it is sound.

    If it is sound then whats the magic frequency to cause the loss of muscle control?

  25. Re:What are the chances... on Audit Finds FBI Abused Patriot Act · · Score: 1

    Thats true in other countries. In the US its different and noone will even get a slap on the wrist.
