  1. Re:If they succed . . . on No Honor Among Malware Purveyors · · Score: 1

    Well.. You have authorised adaware to remove the other programs.. So it is allowed to delete, unlike spyware which you only authorised to install crap :)

  2. Yes, but... on Palm OS To Run On Linux · · Score: 2, Funny

    does it run WinCE?

  3. Mine doesnt work... on Lycos Anti-Spam Screensaver Brings Down Spam Sites · · Score: 1

    My screensaver (that i run even though i cant get it to run through the proxy i have to use) has been acting weird.. instead of showing a status of the "attack" it writes: "please wait"...
    I think that some spammers put the update server down, and now the screensavers wont stop connecting to some of the sites even though they are down.

  4. robot? on In Japan, Old People Talk to Robots · · Score: 1

    "Japan's growing elderly population will be able to buy companionship in the form of a 45-centimeter (18-inch) robot"
    Sure japans growing population of single women could use an 18-inch robot too...

  5. Quake 2 video? on Best Tools for Machinima? · · Score: 1

    Long time ago i saw a quake 2 demo/movie that was a jerry springer show set in "the edge" (q2dm1).. It obviously required a lot of efford, but it showed that you dont need top class engines or movie maker tools if you got creativity...

  6. waste of money. on Nmap Author Receives FBI Subpoenas · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    I'm grateful that im not from the USA, so im not paying for this useless waste of money..
    They might have a chance for capturing them if they figure out who executed the command.. if youre experienced i this hacking buisness should have the address in their head anyway :)

  7. Gene technology? on Thanksgiving Bits · · Score: 1

    Sounds interesting.. But if we need to feed the poor we should shell out from our exess stock :(

  8. I think that Microsoft is using the same strategy. on Can People Really Program 80+ Hours a Week? · · Score: 5, Funny

    How else do they manage to keep their software so secure?

    To answer your question: Amphetamine

  9. Juristiction? on CIA Researching Automated IRC Spying · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Does anyone know if theyre allowed to "spy" on foreign citizen? If i chat on an european server with fellow europeans i cant see any way that they should be allowed to "spy" on me?

  10. It wont really be any good... on CIA Researching Automated IRC Spying · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Even if its able to spy on private chat rooms on major networks, they wont be able to spy on thoose who dont want to be spied on... Its relatively easy to set up your own IRC server, and control exactly who has axcess to it so the feds are left outside alone...

  11. Sound fine and all... But.. on Intel Quietly Adopts AMD's x86-64 · · Score: 5, Interesting

    How will it perform compared to AMD's chips? AFAIK AMD usually performs better clock to clock?

  12. Cds and durability? on Recycling Gone Wrong: The AOL Throne · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    from my experience with cds they tend to crack when bend too much... So what happens when an average 300 Lbs american sit in that chair?

  13. 3g? on DoCoMo to Use Linux on Phones · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Well.. For now i just stick with my 2g telephone, and uses my laptop and wifi for grapping pr0n :)
    Also 3g is way outdated.. Docomo is enrolling 4g in 2006, and they are already experimenting with 5g coorporating with my university.
    The best use i can see for this is when you connect the phone to a computer, so you can get broadband wherever you are.. (but thats what WiMax was developed for)

  14. Please dont... on Raimi Remaking 'Evil Dead'? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The only way that this movie would be good, is if it was a low-budget 80'ies horror movie with bad special effects and medicore acting...
    But we already got THAT movie!
    The only reason that they make this movie is that they need some money, and i guess that hordes of fan of the old movies will flock to the cinemas when it arrives... And then their objective will be fullfilled!

  15. Re:Why not release it? on Gates 'World's Most-Spammed Man' · · Score: 1

    I guess that he doesnt have any troubles in bed...

  16. PCIe slower... Maybe its not mature yet? on Reviews Arrive For nVidia GeForce 6600GT AGP · · Score: 2, Interesting

    AFAIR the first agp/4x/8x cards and boards were a bit slower then the former generation interface, so maybe we should let the technology mature for a bit...

    On the other hand Extremetech's review find the PCIe version much faster, so it might be a configuration issue...

  17. Watch out on Wilco on P2P, Digital Music and the Internet · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Now RIAA will attack them for condoning piracy...

  18. all sequels.. on Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Launches · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What about something completely new?
    All ive seen in the last couple of months is sequels:
    Half-life 2, Halo 2, GTA:SA, Everquest 2 etc...

  19. Idiot... on The Music Man · · Score: 1

    Is this guy stupid or what?

    He is so protective about his collection, that he doesnt even want his kids to copy "his" songs, because it would be pirating..

    Still he uses .torrent and eDonkey, so he has to share it when he are downloading the music... Or thats how i understand that theese networks works!

  20. Great for servers on Intel "East Fork" Technology Migration · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Gonna be great to use this platform for servers..

    Low power usage...
    Great performance..
    Low heat emission (easy to make passive cooled..)

    GamePC made a test not long ago, and it performed on par with p4EE and amds FX5x...

  21. Re:hardware on Solaris 10 Released, Updated & Free (Like Speech) · · Score: 0

    Sparc and x86 according to their site : http://wwws.sun.com/software/solaris/index.html

  22. Good idea on Solaris 10 Released, Updated & Free (Like Speech) · · Score: 0

    It seems that Red Hat and others live good on support only, so this new price scheme might bring sun ahead of linux again... I have a sun server running in the basement (appartment complex), but noone here knows much about solaris.. I guess that we will stay at version 9, as it works now and arent accessible from the internet so security arent really a factor..

  23. IE secure? In other news.. on Microsoft Says Firefox Not a Threat to IE · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Cows fly. Hell freezes over.
