  1. Re:Missing post? on Alexander Hamilton Rap · · Score: 1

    Weird, FlashBlock hid YouTube video on this story.

  2. Missing post? on Alexander Hamilton Rap · · Score: 1

    I see nothing!

  3. Got rid of my Shockwave. on Shockwave Vulnerabilities Affect More Than 450 Million Systems · · Score: 1

    I rarely see Web sites use Shockwave. And if I do, it usually games. 99% of the stuff I see are in Flash. If I need it, I will just reinstall, look/use, and then uninstall it.

  4. Re:Glad to see! on Mozilla Releases SeaMonkey 2.0 · · Score: 1

    Your version is outdated for v1.1 series. v1.1.18 exists.

  5. Re:PST format a dad design idea from the start on Microsoft Opening Outlook's PST Format · · Score: 1

    LOL. :) I was just teasing you for the silly typo. :)

  6. Re:PST format a dad design idea from the start on Microsoft Opening Outlook's PST Format · · Score: 1

    "PST format a dad design idea from the start" -- PST is a father design? :)

  7. Re:N00b thing? on Geocities Shutting Down Today · · Score: 1

    Slirp and TIA for emulated SLIP and PPP through UNIX shell accounts FTW! :P

    Get off my lawns, younglings. :P

  8. Re:It's not so bad. on What If They Turned Off the Internet? · · Score: 1

    For me, it was bulletin board system (BBS) days. Good stuff.

  9. Re:Too little, too late on MySpace Trying To Regain Lost Ground With Games and Music · · Score: 1

    FaceBook will be next, then whoever is next, etc. :P I got tired of switching social networks.

  10. Fullscreen overlays? on Hulu May Begin Charging For Content Next Year · · Score: 1

    Can Hulu desktop do fullscreen video overlays? Basically, can I still do stuff on my computers and watch videos on my TV fullscreen?

  11. What sites use .NET? on Mozilla Unblocks Microsoft's .NET Addon · · Score: 1

    I am confused. What sites use .NET under Mozilla's Web browsers?

  12. Re:Absolutely on FCC Considers Opening Up US Broadband Access · · Score: 1

    I also live in a city (L.A. area) and only residential cable broadband service is available for decent prices and speeds. No DSL because I am over 20K ft. Verizon does have FIOS here in my city finally since last year, but not in my neighborhood. Forget satellite for its slowness, caps, and prices. I can't afford a T1 (not rich). Dial-up sucks because of 26400-31200 speeds (3 KB/sec. average for compressed files; has been like that for decades).

  13. Re:First in-game screenshot... on Dev Discusses Upcoming Spy-MMO, The Agency · · Score: 1

    That game series rocked. I remember the island one too. :)

  14. Re:Balance Sheet on Michael Dell Says Windows 7 Will Make You Love PCs · · Score: 1

    It only happened once (first time), and it is a new MacBook Pro (less than a year old). Thanks for the tips though.

  15. Re:Balance Sheet on Michael Dell Says Windows 7 Will Make You Love PCs · · Score: 1

    How is it buggy? I haven't found anything weird yet in Mac OS X 10.5.x and on a MacBook Pro. I did run into Office not running, but then everything else wasn't loading correctly that required a hard shutdown (Mac OS X's shutdown just sat there too).

  16. Has DDO improved overall? on Free-To-Play Switch Going Well For D&D Online · · Score: 1

    I played the final stress test/beta or whatever it was before the game shipped. It was decent, but not good as WoW. Has the game improved a lot?

  17. Re:To be safe... on Washington Post Says Use Linux To Avoid Bank Fraud · · Score: 1

    I don't bank or do anything involving with $$ online.

  18. Re:Choice of /. imagery on Command & Conquer MMO a Possibility? · · Score: 1

    Heh. I was and still am always a C&C fan instead of Blizzard's RTS games (e.g., WC). However, newer C&C games after C&C3 are sucky now. C&C4 doesn't look that good. RA3 was crap.

  19. Re:People still use Ad-Aware? on New Ad-Aware Offers Behavioral Detection · · Score: 1

    Also, MS Security Essentials use service. :(

  20. Re:People still use Ad-Aware? on New Ad-Aware Offers Behavioral Detection · · Score: 2, Informative

    SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (thanks to the folks in http://www.dslreports.com/forum/security,1 for suggesting these) also don't hog your system like Windows' services. Run, scan, and clean on-demand. :)

    Don't forget Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool (W2K SP4 has it too) with mrt.exe command.

  21. Re:How can sexism even be an issue in FOSS... on FOSS Sexism Claims Met With Ire and Denial · · Score: 1

    And I am a red virgin male alate or a female worker ant. :P

  22. Eh? on BSA Says 41% of Software On Personal Computers Is Pirated · · Score: 1

    Don't underestimate this ant! I can hurt you a lot. >:)

  23. Me either. on Why the FBI Director Doesn't Bank Online · · Score: 1

    I don't bank and do anything with money online (nor do I have a credit card) either.

  24. My brief two cents... on Stargate Universe · · Score: 1

    ... I watched its series premiere, and wasn't impressed. It felt like Star Trek (spaceships), Battlestar Galactica, etc. but worse. I still prefer SG-1. Atlanta wasn't that good either.
