  1. Re:Grokster's CEO is pretty bull headed. on Grokster Decision Won't Stop RIAA, MPAA Suits · · Score: 0

    this is why i like more open p2p systems. no one to get busted. the network cant be taken down. i have no sympathy for corporations who get sued for distributing p2p software. they are making money after all. freenet will live forever, nobody can take it down.

  2. Re:Too bad we can't use it on Presenting APNG: Like MNG, Only Better · · Score: 0

    ~50% of the traffic on my site is from non-IE browsers. I have personally converted 30% of my forum members from IE. So now I have the discretion of choosing what format I use. Guess what it is? PNG. GG microsoft.

  3. Hmm. . . maybe I'll go to pick it up on British Town Worried About WWII Ammo Ship Wreck · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    I say that someone sends two helicopters, make them hover at 10000 feet, then drop cables to pick the boat up. If it doesn't go off, said person would have the largest conventional bomb ever.

    If it does go off, no harm, british people are fake, just like the holocaust.

  4. Re:Cedega... does it live up to the hype? on Anarchy Online - Finally Working On Linux · · Score: 1

    It's been shown that games will run at the same speed, if not faster than they would running natively under windows. Especially in the case of certain EA games like BF1942 that are poorly written.

  5. Re:RIAA targets... on RIAA Grinds Down Individuals in the Courtroom · · Score: 1

    This would be kick-ass thing for a good number of people to do, that happen to have access to large internet connections. Place free music (in terms of liberty of use), free software, and free literature on one of the more popular file-sharing networks that average file-swappers use. This way, it could be shown that p2p has legitimate uses. Of course, this is what bittorrent provides, but only people of moderate skill and experience on the net use bittorrent (as far as I know).

  6. Re:Perl and software on Larry Wall's State of the Onion 8 · · Score: 3, Funny

    Holy crap, karma points are like crack. Seriously. I get one point and I start twitching. This cannot be healthy. . . can you buy karma?

  7. Re:Cue the phone Ludittes on Television On Your Cell Phone · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Man, I hate how no one makes good, plain cell-phones anymore. I mean, what has this world come to? But all silliness aside, it would be cool if someone came up with a really simple phone that could be mass-produced, then coupled it with a really cheap unlimited plan. Then I could hack the phone and use it for mobile access to slashdot ;)

  8. Re:Perl and software on Larry Wall's State of the Onion 8 · · Score: 2, Informative

    Yes, there is a distro of linux with all of it's utilities written in perl. I don't know how valuable the project was, but it did show what could be done.

  9. Re:Reusable engines for missiles ! on NASA Provides Results Of Scramjet Test · · Score: 1

    Damn, I can see how that would save alot of money. Build a reusable engine, then destroy it on the first run. Hmm. . . I think I have a new oxymoron: reusable nuke.
