  1. Perfect Hack For MacHack on Messaging Over IPv6 Headers · · Score: 1

    All good hacks for MacHack must be useless. You will get boo'ed and "usefull" will be screamed at you otherwise.

  2. Re:Impressive on Toshiba Introduces A 17"-Screen Laptop · · Score: 1

    I have a 17 Inch AlBook and have absolutely no problem using it in coach. In fact, it's easier to use in coach than my 14.1 iBook was because it has a smaller height. Granted, it is impossible to use the tray table, but my AlBook has plenty of spare room to sit drinks on.

  3. Re:Serious Bluetooth Issues on Panther Analysis Getting Underway · · Score: 1

    That's because Bluetooth on panther is still nofunctional ;) It's just an alpha (if that) so far.

  4. Re:WWDC "to be announced" slots on Massive WWDC Rumor Roundup · · Score: 1

    This is extremely normal. They cover the new aspects of panther and the hardware capabilities. Sometimes they slip up and a session reveals more than it should before the keynote on monday.

  5. Something missing? on Profile of a Hard-Core Gamer · · Score: 1

    You Spoony Bard!

    Ah, I had to get that out of my system.

  6. Re:quick fyi.... on QuarkXPress 6 For Mac OS X · · Score: 1

    No, he specifically says Diablo II. It was released about a week after the PC released then later put on as a hybrid CD. It was a big day for Apple since it was the first major game released this way and therefore posted ALL over the website.

  7. Re:Great Machine, but... on Game Boy Advance SP Sells 1.1 Million in U.S. · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Yes, it definitely looks better than any previous GB. But just because it's currently the best does not mean it cannot be better or that it should not be improved upon.

  8. Re:I love my GBA SP on Game Boy Advance SP Sells 1.1 Million in U.S. · · Score: 3, Funny

    Not really. I was in the middle of a game of MegaMan and Bass but I had to take a shower and didn't want to play the GBASP in the shower nor did I want to start all over from the beginning of King's tower. So I just plugged 'er in and closed the lid while I took a shower. Although I do wish it fell asleep when the lid was closed like the PowerBooks/iBooks.

  9. Great Machine, but... on Game Boy Advance SP Sells 1.1 Million in U.S. · · Score: 5, Interesting

    When the Backlight is on the screen gets all hazy from too much reflection and glare from it's own internal light. Also, let's not forget you have to pay extra to get a headphone jack. That extra accessory makes the GBASP a little less portable than the previous incarnation.

  10. Re:Why is this news? on Microsoft Pulls Broken XP Update · · Score: 1

    Not that easy sugar. Unless your mac is set to sync with a time server (mine is) and off date can mess with a lot of services. Especially things like cron jobs that backup, erase, and restore the HD (hey, it could happen)

  11. Re:Good naming strategy on Sony Announces a Super Playstation 2, the "PSX" · · Score: 1

    PlayStation eXperience.

  12. Re:Confirmation? on PPC 970 Confirmed for Apple? · · Score: 4, Funny

    Confirmation could be the IBM logo stamped on the 601 PPC chip in the first power macs.

  13. Re:It's ugly on Wristwatch USB Drive · · Score: 1

    Brands are hot and geeks/nerds are historically wimps. Same goes for a tattoo that says "NERD"

  14. Re:You Killed Our Server! You Bastards! NOT! on Glade 2 Tutorial · · Score: 1

    Or it could be that so little people actually care about Glade II or even need a tutorial that no one is visiting the site. It's a sad day when you get posted to slashdot and can't even get enough clicks to /. a P75

  15. Re:Oh yeah, this'll work really well... on Intel's Itanium Will Get x86 Emulation · · Score: 1

    Apple did not have an all PPC version of the Mac OS until Mac OS X. But even Mac OS X doesn't use all the features of the PPC processor (RTOC).

    Mac OS 9.2.2 has 68k code in it. The window manager IIRC.

  16. Re:What the heck is... on Safari Beta 2 Available · · Score: 3, Funny

    Well, even if it was mentioned you probably wouldn't read it since you missed the huge X icon and the words Apple at the top of the news item.

  17. Revenge for FCP on Adobe Says PCs Are Preferred · · Score: 1

    Adobe is just pissed at Apple for purchasing Final Cut Pro from Macromedia and then competing against Adobe's Premiere (and some say After Effects). Not only did Apple purchase something from Adobe's main competitor but they also made Premiere look like an embarrassment.

    Have you ever compared FCP to Premiere? FCP wins no-contest.

  18. But why Microsoft? on Office 2003 Beta 2 Screen Shots · · Score: 1

    Why base clones of Microsoft? I mean, seriously... even though we are in the digital age software design based on the design of other software behaves more like analog copying in that it gets worse with each generation. Linux and things like Evolution (Ximian) are the 4th generation! (Xerox Parc->Apple->Microsoft->Open Source)

    This is not a good thing! If you want to do it right, hire some decent designers that know nothing about programming (would hate to polute their creative minds with knowledge of code) and get them to draw up the designs. Have some usability labs. Hire your mom, grandmother, or neighborhood AOL user to do some ease-of-use tests and don't get angry when they complain or ask for help.

    You can help make the world a better place. And oh, yeah... eat meat. It's good for you.

  19. Re:How f***ing annoying is this? on Ask Slashdot: What's the Best MP3 Encoder? · · Score: 1

    Idiot. I can call you an uninformed idiot, right? Yeah, I can. Because you cannot name a single reason. I havent restarted since I started my mac 9 hours and 34 minutes ago. And I have been on the entire time. You are just jealous.
