  1. Re:I want you to meet my little friend on There Is No Safe Web Browser · · Score: 4, Informative

    Lynx had its fair share of vunerabilities also ....

  2. How long? on Nuclear Fuel How-To · · Score: 1

    How long before /. gets shut down for distributing this information?!

  5. Re:Earthlink sucks on IPv6 for the Linksys WRT54G · · Score: 1

    they probably never will, because Earthlink sucks

    Then cut Earthlink out as the middleman, use a 6to4 tunnel! I had written a short list on my blog on some working 6to4 tunnel brokers as well as some generic configuration tips and a couple of their respective configuration programs/scripts. Ohh, the link is here: A List of 6to4 Tunnel Brokers and Generic Configuration

  6. Re:I've said it several times .. on Smoke and Mirrors from Sony and Microsoft · · Score: 1

    I won't be buying any of the new consoles until all have been released and I have a real understanding of which ones gonna have the games I want.

    This is somewhat true to me also, which is why I bought a NintendoDS instead of a PSP. While the PSP may be technically superior, the NintedoDS (IMHO) has a better lineup of games comming out this year.

  7. I've said it several times .. on Smoke and Mirrors from Sony and Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Its not the platform, but the applications that make a difference ....

    If a kick-ass game console has the absolute best hardware today, doesn't mean we like playing "Pong4d/v2" all day long.

  8. Re:One big question... on Little Interest In Next-Gen Internet · · Score: 1

    Yay I'm cool, because I use IPv6?

    As a home user - I can't answer that, but as a business, its to get ready for the future. In my original post, I stated all geeks should try this out .. Isn't that what being a geek is all about? Adopting something in the early days modifying/improving ensuring its successful growth? After all, its the knowledge that drives us (at least me).

  9. As I tell my friends .. on Mad as Hell, Switching to Mac · · Score: 1

    As I tell my friends constantly, here is my perspective on the platforms:

    Windows - Fix it for 4 hours to do a 10 minute job

    or

    Mac - Do your 10 minute job and take 4 hours off (or go do something else)

    After I purchased an iBook, this is what my home technicial life consists of now ...

  10. Re:IPv6 Bittorrent on Little Interest In Next-Gen Internet · · Score: 1

    I believe that would be a great idea!! Think of this, the bittorrent protocol modified a little bit to support IPV6 Multicasting!! I believe that would be the next revolution of a content distribution system.

  11. I have a minimal on Little Interest In Next-Gen Internet · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I have a minimal writeup on my blog here. It states where I got my 6to4 tunnel from, how to activate the tunnel (in FreeBSD), and the problem I faced when activating the tunnel! All in all, now my webserver answers requests on ipv6!! Check it out! Its very easy, I suggest all geeks at least try this at home. Later tomorrow, once I'm done testing, I will put an extensive writeup on how to make your home network a functioning IPV6 ONLY network (includes: Windows Boxes, Mac Boxes, Linux Boxes, FreeBSD boxes, and OpenBSD Boxes).

  12. What I would like to know .. on Nokia Announces Patent Support to the Linux Kernel · · Score: 1

    What I would like to know is what if compainies like X-Stream decide to do what they have been doing and releasing their programs that were once GPLed code. Is Nokia going to go after them or sit by while the OSS community to do something?

    if it was THAT quick, what'd have been the difference? By the time the ambulance had arrived, wouldn't the child be already dead anyway?

    Apparently not, talking with someone on the other end of the 911 call would instantly add +10 minutes to the infants life.
