Your writing is unbelievable. Slashdot readers having a life? Out doing stuff on Saturday nights? Jeez, why don't you write something realistic for once!
This only changes the 'minimum' speed your fan runs at; if the cpu gets too hot, the machine will automatically increase the fan speed above that as needed. It's just that the minimum speed on my MacBook is at 1500, and it lets me adjust that (it doesnt allow me to go below that).
I think it has more to do with the fact that barely anyone has heard of Krugle before this (I know I haven't) as Google's announcement gets way more publicity. That, combined with the fact that this behaviour was probably present and done with things like Krugle, but nobody thought to blog about it because heck, it's cool if you're using Google, it's the internet's poster child, but what the hell's Krugle?
I had good luck with RC2. The only issue I had with RC1 was that Media Player wouldn't play avi files very smoothly, and media center would crash whenever I open my video library. They've been fixed in RC2.
From my brief experience with the iPod and iTunes player, their random features were never truly 'random'. For example, I liked David Gray's Ain't No Love so I'd usually start off with that and the iPod would be set to random. The next song would be, say, Coldplay, and the one after that would be Joshua Radin, and so on. So far, so good. Next day, I like to start with "David Gray's Ain't No Love", and sure enough, the next song would be Coldplay, followed by Joshua Radin, and so on. Until I add another song to the library or the iPod, it'd do the same order.
Where does it say that the regular search can't be used to find code?
From the article:
Skilled hackers may already be able to do this type of search with Google's Web search engine, but Code Search is "another tool that makes it a tad easier for the attacker," says Johnny Long, a security researcher with Computer Sciences Corp, in an e-mail interview.
You do realize microsoft announced gadgets in an old build of longhorn long, long before Apple announced it in OS X? And regardless, Konfabulator was there first?
I could say the exact same thing you said about MotorStorm to describe PGR3 on the Xbox 360. Framerate issues are not always due to hardware, but unoptimized software.
I know gentoo is for people who like to tinker with stuff...but I never understood what the advantage gentoo has in it's ability to configure everything before the install over something like say...ubuntu. Can't you configure things after the install of Ubuntu?
And praytell, please give me an example where MS 'infects' user's own non-bought MP3s with DRM? I've ran my library through multiple MS products, including WMP 10, WMP11 and YME, and multiple PlaysForSure devices, and had no issues. The article specifically states that the DRM'd media is one that's been purchased through online stores. So please, don't spout BS just because you hate MS.
I wouldn't buy DRM encumbered content; but, I did subscribe to Yahoo's Music Engine (I got a discount through my ISP at Rogers) for a while. Never bought music from it, but I listened to it all the time and it was great having any song I want available. It was worth ti. The only thing that made me cancel was the horrendous buggy/ugly client. Plus...it's easy enough getting around the DRM. *coughtunebitecough*

PS: I hate the 20 second wait for posting comments. I can type fast damnit.
Killer!
I was going to make the same point, but granted, $i$te$do doesn't make much sense.
The source code is included. Check out the package contents.

I have never cracked up laughing to a comment on Slashdot. You sir...deserver a cookie. Nay! TWO cookies!

There's no antivirus in Vista
It's a friggin' game. A lot of US-made games show conflicts in areas in the Middle East. Oooh. Terrorist training!
You love your guests more than your daughter that they get a better PC?
Thing is, most of the time when I'm playing games I feel lazy and not up to much else. Mind you I'm still getting a Wii

I believe you can use unsigned drivers in the 32-bit version (works for me.!)
Erm...you contradict yourself from one sentence to the next.
Or sound like an idiot because this is a privately held company and isn't owned by Microsoft?
