  1. I find it surprising... on Secret Spam Summit Held in Washington DC · · Score: 2

    ...that nobody has mentioned SpamCop (http://spamcop.net) yet.

    It is the single most effective trace-and-LART tool available.

    I don't know if it has reduced my spam volume any, but it sure is fun to fire off those abuse messages.

    (And no, I don't work for them, I am just a contented user of their free service.)

  2. Where's the source? on Distributed.net releases CSC and OGR clients · · Score: 1

    The download page (for RC5 at least) says "The binaries and source here are the ONLY ones you should be using," but I can't find the source packages.
    I don't trust programs that upload and download packets without my direct and complete control.
    Unless they open the source, my paranoia will prevent me from participating.

  3. This might not be such a good thing. on Packard Bell to Shut Down US Line, Lay Off 80% · · Score: 2

    My first experience with Windows was on a Packard Bell. A slow, unreliable, unupgradeable, poorly made, generally EVIL Packard Bell.
    On its own, Windows is horrifying enough, On a Packard Bell, it's enough to drive a man to Linux.

  4. Re:Wine isn't y2k compliant on WINE 991031 (Hallowine) Released · · Score: 1

    AFAIK, nothing needs to know the Wine version number except the user. Is your brain Y2K compliant, or will you believe that Wine 00xxxx is a hundred years old?
