  1. Re:Notice one thing... on Why Eric Schmidt Is Wrong About Microsoft Not Mattering Anymore · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I've long thought that Facebook's only real asset is in being a fad. And fads often vanish very suddenly.

  2. Re:Good on Google Is Planning To Penalize Overly Optimized Sites · · Score: 1

    They'll just figure out new ways to game Google's system.

  3. Re:Changing business on Kodak Failing, But Camera Phones Not To Blame · · Score: 1

    Just like SCO filing chapter 11? ;)

  4. Re:BRING BACK THE K5 TEAM !! on Intel and AMD May Both Delay Next-Generation CPUs · · Score: 1

    Yes, bug K5 was a lot less complex. There's a lot more room for bugs in modern CPU designs.

  5. Re:Not a good sign on Netflix To Eliminate Profiles Feature · · Score: 1

    I called NetFlix and they informed me that it was a technical issue. The programmer's new upcoming features apparently are buggy when interacting with accounts with multiple profiles and instead of fixing the bugs, the programmers decided to axes profiles. So they aren't above lying to customers. No surprise there.

  6. Re:What v3 does he mean? on Linus Says No GPLv3 for the Linux Kernel · · Score: 1

    A good portion of the kernel is GPL V2 but not all. Contributors decide what license their code is under. Read the discussion in the lkml: http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/msg435586.html

  7. Re:"illegal to copy your own CDs... to ipod"? WTF? on The Guardian On Intellectual Property · · Score: 1

    So not install Sony's rootkit is circumvention?

  8. Re:Don't forget us 2.0.x users. on Local Root Hole in Linux Kernels · · Score: 1

    I know of a VOIP gateway product that uses a 2.0 kernel. There is no good reason to change to a newer kernel and doing so would require updating several device drivers.

  9. Re:Download Limewire! on Morpheus Hijacks Browsers For Affiliate Links · · Score: 1

    "Limewire is good."

    How do you define good? I found it to be extremely slow and quite buggy. In fact I'd say it sucked.

  10. Re:Wow on Google's Weakness, AltaVista's Strength · · Score: 2, Informative

    One thing makes Google by prefered search engine now: it gives me relevant results. Alta Vista appears to favor paid submissions over the actual search terms and returns mostly crap on my searches.

  11. Re:They were just testing the waters... on TiVo Response to 2.0.1 Upgrade Issues · · Score: 1

    Considering TiVo's business plan/methods do you really think this was an accident?

  12. Re:Stop using windows? on New Microsoft Feature: Planned Obsolescence · · Score: 1

    I haven't used windows on my own system in years.
    Just wish I didn't have to help friends with their windoze problems.

  13. Re:Always use encrypted filesystems! on When The FBI Knocks, A First-Person Account · · Score: 1

    I don't think they can compel you to give up the
    password for criminal cases. Civil cases are another story though.
