    Exactly, it isn't being developed for gene doping in atheletes, it's main purpose was & still is to combat MD.

    They already tried it with Prozac in Britain, no dice.

    Published in Time Magazine, I recieved this issue today. Where has our originality gone?

    You could have just linked to the Time story, it's very extensive.

    That's RC1, which is nowhere near a final candidate.

    1. A lawyer who obtains clients by persuading accident victims to sue for damages.

    Does a class action civil lawsuit equal a "lawyer who obtains clients by persuading accident victims to sue for damages?"

  9. Atrac3 on Sony, Walkmans And The iPod · · Score: 4, Informative

    Adaptive TRansform Acoustic Coding originated with the minidisc. A nice little description.

  10. Welcome To Slashdot on Security Statistics and Operating System Conventional Wisdom · · Score: 1, Offtopic

  11. IE = Opera on MSN's Slate Recommends Firefox over IE · · Score: 1

    When Microsoft wanted to make a browser, they made a partnership with Opera. They then proceeded to take the source, change the interface, and rename it to Microsoft Internet Explorer.

    Internet Explorer is just Opera

  12. Highlights What is Wrong, and Fixes It on Evaluating Windows XP Service Pack 2 RC2 · · Score: 1

    So "Fucking Windows" will be worse with SP2's security fixes, and interface tweaking?

    Oh, and to turn off Thumbnails, choose View>Details or View> Something Other Then Thumbnails.

    Any other display questions?

  13. Re:Marketshare has meaning in security on Evaluating Windows XP Service Pack 2 RC2 · · Score: 1

    Anyway is linux or mozilla more secure? YES.

    Why generalize like that? They are both open source, but I havn't seen any official affiliation yet? Is a Linux disc or download packed with Mozilla?

  14. Re:So... on Evaluating Windows XP Service Pack 2 RC2 · · Score: 1

    Yes, because they are getting it done. Although some people advertise stable OS building as easy, it really is alot harder then it seems. Why would you not congratulate a company for releasing something that resolves many security issues? It's better then not releasing anything at all.

  15. Periodicals on What Magazines Do You Read? · · Score: 1

    I read Time, Newsweek, GamePro, and PC Gamer. I find that the integrity of GamePro has been lost (they started muting themselves in the "Head2Head" section.) It's hard to keep an unbiased mind when writing passionatly, but writing passionatly is what most writers should do to create a good piece.
