  1. Re:How to block them ... on This Headline Is Not for Sale · · Score: 1

    I don't usually block a sites graphics unless they do that blink thing or they are some animated gif that changes and distracts from reading the article.

    I do use the "Flash click to play" plugin on Mozilla though. Those flash animations are just too distracting.

  2. Hmmmm... on IT's Musical Habits · · Score: 2, Funny

    MCSE"'s listen to Britney spears!

    That explains a lot.

  3. Our Toner... on Most Outrageous Vendor Lie Ever Told? · · Score: 1

    Will make a 300 DPI laser print at 600 DPI.

    I laughed so hard I could barely point her to the door.

  4. Re:Good laptops for Linux on VAIO To Be First Crusoe Laptop · · Score: 1

    I run Caldera Linux on a VAIO PCG F370 and it runs great. I can't do the DVD and the Winmodem though. But I think all internal modems in notebooks are winmodems. But since I am nearly always on a network (both home and work) I just use a 3-COM PCMCIA network card and it's fine.

  5. Re:perhaps i should quit my job on Universal Access · · Score: 1

    Yeah well, it sounds like the sysadmins at your place have way to much time on their hands.

    I'm a sysadmin and I couldn't care less what people mail out. Much less have the time to look over logs to see what is being mailed out.

    If I were you I'd start looking for a new job.

  6. Bwaaaahhaaaa on How many hours did you work this week? · · Score: 1


    32.9 hours a week!!!

    Not a chance, More like 55-60 on a easy week.

    And what about those nights sleeping in the machine room when everything goes to fsck.

    (hee hee, not a bad pun there)

  7. Hey... on Behold the Lizardman · · Score: 1

    That guy who blew up his house is right by me here. And he is real close to cmdrTaco as well.

    I didn't know he made CNN though. Do you have a link to the story?

  8. Re:Can it get any more boring than this? on Chess Dispute: Kasparov vs. the World vs. MSN · · Score: 0

    How, exactly, is this flambait?

  9. Re:Can it get any more boring than this? on Chess Dispute: Kasparov vs. the World vs. MSN · · Score: 0

    Well, yes! It is just a chess game, and as you said, a not very interesting one at that.

    But the chess game isn't the issue. The issue is that if you cheat and lie at something relatively unimportant then you will cheat and lie at something important.

  10. Love 'em or hate 'em on Dying Babies and The Myth of American Freedom · · Score: 1

    But Katz always makes the party interesting.

    Good article

  11. Re:Forgetting your password on MSN Lists 10 Dumb Things NT Users Do · · Score: 4

    Actually I keep a copy of l0phtcrack around. I
    have users who forget their passwords all the time
    on their NT boxen.

    l0phtcrack usually cracks it in just a few minutes, but once I had a guy who actually had a fairly good password. It took about 20 minutes to crack on a PentPro 200. That is not the rule though. Usually it's less than 4 or 5 minutes.

  12. Re:Changing SID? on MSN Lists 10 Dumb Things NT Users Do · · Score: 1

    Nope!

    I cloned 80 machines using Ghost and never had a
    single problem.

    Well, other than the fact that it's NT of course.

  15. Re:Hrrr? My License is Invalid? on Good-Bye Nino; Hello from Handspring · · Score: 1

    I got a user name and password verification box. To go to their site???? A password??

  16. Re:Whats up with the ? on The Coming Cyberclysm - Part One · · Score: 1

    I'm using FreeBSD with Navigator 4.6 and I don't see the ?'s

  17. Logs! on Yet Another Crack-This-Box Challenge · · Score: 1

    Yeah! But this one lets you watch the logs.

  18. Re:Borders has carried SuSE for Months Already on SuSE gets Mainstream Sales Distribution · · Score: 1
