  1. Re:More change for change's sake? on Mozilla Plans Major Design Overhaul With Firefox 25 Release In October · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I am struggling with v2.17.1 in my old updated 32-bit Windows XP Pro. SP3 with 2.5 GB of RAM. It cannot handle 70+ tabs at once. :(

  3. Re:More change for change's sake? on Mozilla Plans Major Design Overhaul With Firefox 25 Release In October · · Score: 1

    Ditto for SM. I have been using this suite product since Netscape days. I still love today. Yes, it takes up more resources than Firefox, but I still love it.

  4. Re:Coming soon on European HbbTV Smart TV Holes Make Sets Hackable · · Score: 1

    Is that a fake clone of McAfee with malwares? :P

  5. As we expected! on European HbbTV Smart TV Holes Make Sets Hackable · · Score: 1

    I will stick with my old fashion 19.5" Sharp CRT TV from 1996 that still works and not always used. :P

    Wait, when will smart TVs get security softwares like other devices? :P

    Tina Fey is a funny and attractive Sarah Palin wannabe! :P

  7. Re:For Those that lack Woodwork skill/tools.. on Retro Gaming With Raspberry Pi · · Score: 1

    Just get them from binary newsgroups (alt.binaries.emulators.mame and alt.binaries.emulators.mame.chd) or http://www.pleasuredome.org.uk/ (Torrents). They always have the latest versions. If you use a good usenet server, then you should be able to get the older MAME ROMs.

  8. MAMEhub and its CSmame online! on Retro Gaming With Raspberry Pi · · Score: 2

    https://github.com/MisterTea/MAMEHub/issues/3

    We need help on this! We are having problems getting it to work on slow rPis so we can play online!

  9. Improved E.T. game. on Salvaging E.T. In Software, Instead of New Mexico · · Score: 1

    Two articles (three pages NetworkWorld without images and one page PCWorld with images) on "How hacking fixed the worst video game of all time... So why should you give it another chance? Because code hackers managed to fix some of the games most glaring problems, and now it's actually fun to play..."

    As a callow ant, I remember getting it as Christmas gift. I was all happy. Haha.

    Or they have QA, but lack of time and resources.

  12. Re:Why bother, Win7 is fine on First Looks At Windows 8.1, Complete With 'Start' Button · · Score: 1

    Or XP Pro. SP3. And people ask me why I still use it. It works fine. I care not! I will get W7 when it is time (MS drops support in April 2014) or new hardwares can't use XP anymore.

  13. Re:Not good enough on First Looks At Windows 8.1, Complete With 'Start' Button · · Score: 1

    Yeah and a common hotkeys in Windows. Much easier to remember. :)

  14. Re:Content moving to apps more of an impediment on EFF Makes Formal Objection to DRM In HTML5 · · Score: 1

    You can wait and buy the latest aired episodes the next day and if you're in the correct country (e.g., USA) from various places like Amazon, iTunes, Vudu, etc. What bugs me is why can't we RENT and not buy the episodes? Ugh.

  15. BASIC, LOGO, etc. on How Did You Learn How To Program? · · Score: 1

    When I was a callow ant, I was into Apple BASIC and LOGO, and HTML. I was into simple stuff and modifying. I got older to take computer science courses, but I didn't like coding anymore. I did like breaking stuff for SQA!

  16. Re:Does this actually work? on Xbox One: Cloud Will Quadruple the Power, Says Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Really? Interesting. I will need to find free time to go to 64-bit 7. I rarely play games. I never finished Crysis 1, World in Conflict, C&C3:KW, etc. so I never bothered to upgrade my OS since it worked fine for basic stuff.

  17. One page to see all images. on Artist Turns Volcano Into Naked-Eye Observatory · · Score: 1
  18. Re:Does this actually work? on Xbox One: Cloud Will Quadruple the Power, Says Microsoft · · Score: 1

    I can't play today's latest games with my ATI Radeon 4870 video card (512 MB of VRAM) in Windows XP Pro. SP3. It's like not enough VRAM, video driver issues, etc. :(

  19. Re:Thankfully, Facebook is on the way out.... on Eric Schmidt: Teens' Mistakes Will Never Go Away · · Score: 1

    Really? Girls don't seem fun in person to me. They just care not about me and don't want to have a relationship with me. :(

    If private, then companies and related ones will probably still have the data in their backups. Even if deleted, they probably still have them somewhere. :(

    I am still waiting for fibers near my homes! Verizon FIOS doesn't want to bring them here. I still can't get DSL too! Argh! :(

    Someone is always archiving data like archive.org. :P

    LAN parties are rare, but still exist. It's fun to hang out with people in person beside being online.
