  1. Re:Lesson should have been learned on BioWare Holds World Design Contest · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Puzzles also suck in multiplayer, unless they are specifically designed for MP. So, i guess this contest isn't targeted at MP.

  2. easy way to bypass this security measure on Bush Causes Cell Phone Ban · · Score: 1

    Explode when signal dies :) You don't even have to have personnel to be present.

  3. Re:Why would it be puzzling? on Microsoft Votes to Add ODF to ANSI Standards List · · Score: 1

    Yep, they say that multiple choices are good. Which is true, just not for standards. They don't say the same about OS, word processor or pretty much anything else. Only about standards.

  4. Re:Interesting. on Strange Alien World Made of "Hot Ice" · · Score: 3, Informative

    Yes, iirc it was already done. See Sandia Z machine.

  5. Re:Hmmm on Click Here To Infect Your PC! · · Score: 1

    Most of the people who actually clicked on it were not idiots but security consultants.

  6. Re:Nice on AMD Promises Open Source Graphics Drivers · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Well, if there is a good video card support on linux, linux gaming will just strengthen. It isn't a godgiven that you can play games only on Vista.

  7. God needs motive???? on Ancient Star Found, Estimated at 13.2 Billion Years Old · · Score: 1

    Nah, that is a false assumption.
    God can do anything without the need of motive.
    Of course HE may have motive if HE wants some :)

    It is soo much easier to debate on the creationist side.

  8. Re:suggestion on Monday is Wiretap the Internet Day · · Score: 1

    Yeah, it will be quite useful when Sweden will let the FBI to monitor their net too. Special priority to relocation services.

  9. Re:Linux patches? on Microsoft Patches 19 Flaws, 6 in Vista · · Score: 1

    I guess you'll have to wait till the first major Linux virus/worm/phishing etc. outbreak.
    As long as M$ is so much more vulnerable and targetable you will always perceive a kind of bias.
    To your dismay, even if Linux will have a bigger market share, it won't get that much attention from malware creators, because first the technically savvy or at least more aware users will take the leap. Lazy and/or ignorant people are the best target. And I still didn't talk about the big differences between OS security :) I use both systems, but i will never dare to use email in Windows.

  10. Re:Pretty hypocritical on Soldiers Bond With Bots, Take Them Fishing · · Score: 1

    Your note is quite offtopic, because we talk about why US soldiers are more fond of their robotic toys than 'muslim militants'.

    Ok, lets talk about Al Qaeda in Iraq. How many of those guys are actually Iraqis?
    So, how fair to say it is THEIR land?
    Please note, I never said the americans had any right to invade Iraq.
    As I see it, i would launch a big spaceship with Bush and BinLaden and their followers to the Mars and let them fight there.

    (You seem to considered worth to write about my spelling, so i answer that too, i'm from a country where we don't mangle written language, and that's how i heard 'Qaeda' spoken)

  11. Re:Pretty hypocritical on Soldiers Bond With Bots, Take Them Fishing · · Score: 1

    Well, these robots are not cylons, who are about to kill you. While i wouldn't like to run into any Al Kaida guy. It is not hypocritical. The robots are like toys or pets, not bloodthirsty terrorists.

  12. HAHAHA on Canadian Coins Not Nano-Tech Espionage Devices · · Score: 1

    I wonder why this topic is marked as political when it is outright hilarious. Paranoia at its most laughable form. Luckily no one was tortured or killed to uncover this 'espionage'. Uhm, am i right? Are there any missing canadians?

  13. Re:Why is this news? on Australian Extradited For Breaking US Law At Home · · Score: 1

    Last time i knew, Australia wasn't colonised by the US. An US citizen can kill an Australian in Australia, or anywhere else, and the US won't extradite the murderer.

  14. haha, i start to admire the guy on EFF and Dvorak Blame the Digg Revolt On Lawyers · · Score: 1

    Dvorak knew but didn't say it explicitly. Why else he would use the word: fiaSCO ?

  15. Re:But what is it good for? on Mathematicians Design Invisible Tunnel · · Score: 3, Funny

    Is it hidden from Google Maps?

  16. Connect the dots on Utah Anti-Kids-Spam Registry "a Flop" · · Score: 1

    SCO, Darl McBride, Brent Hatch, Orrin Hatch.

  17. Re:So, now we can't count? on AOL's Embarassing Password Woes · · Score: 1

    Any obvious 8 character password [plus arbitrary crap]. Please notice that 'password' is 8 characters. Are you really so dense or just picking nit?

  18. Re:humanity vs capitalism on Brazil Voids Merck Patent On AIDS Drug · · Score: 1

    This 'massive costs' stuff is an overblown and lame excuse.

  19. Re:This is definitely true, Revelations inside on Microsoft, Best Buy Face Racketeering Suit · · Score: 1

    Would you testify this stuff under oath? Maybe it worths something.

  20. Re:Some interesting hypocrisy on Prosecutor Announces Charges Against Pirate Bay · · Score: 1

    There is no political or social objective. They simply want $. And it is always ok in the USA :)

  21. Re:Boo on IBM's Snowflake Microchips · · Score: 2, Funny

    I guess you miss the 'snowflake in hell' notes?

  22. Re:Encryption arms race may soon be obsolete... on New AACS Crack Called "Undefeatable" · · Score: 1

    You forgot watermarking. If your camcorder explodes by receiving a secret watermark while recording, you won't be oh soo happy.

  23. Re:Undefeatable? on New AACS Crack Called "Undefeatable" · · Score: 1

    Hmm, i see different reports of the number being 16 or 32 bits. What is the truth? I cannot live in uncertainty, while writing down a random 32 bit number which exactly matches this magic number isn't likely, i fear i will accidentally type it if it is only 16 bits.

  24. piracy is legal then? on Supreme Court Weakens Patents · · Score: 1

    "The proper domains for proprietary software are trade secret for closed source code and copyright for open source code."

    I hope, You by no means imply that proprietary software has no right for copyright ;)

  25. slashdot is deteriorating on Vitamin D Deficiency Behind Many Western Cancers? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Hmm, bash, C and linus in one sentence and it isn't about Linux.
