  1. Re:Gentoo 2007.0 Review from Daniel Robbins on New Gentoo 2007.0 Release Gets Mixed Review · · Score: 1

    /me starts bowing and chanting "we're not worthy!"

  2. Re:"Non-hard-core gamers" aren't playing anymore on Mario All Grown Up? · · Score: 1

    I know how you feel. I consider myself a regular gamer but nothing has caught my interest as of late. The last game I completed and loved was Resident Evil 4 -- Did you try this yet?
     
    I have great hope for the future (Zelda - Twilight Princess - GC, New Super Mario Bros. - DS, Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion - PC, and UT 2007 - PC) But the present kinda stinks!

  5. nagravision 2 on Modern History of Cryptography Techniques · · Score: 1

    Forget about DES, MD5, Blowfish, and all those 'old' crypto techniques. People need to start focusing on what really matters... getting me free satellite TV! :)

  6. Re:The Games! on Hundreds of Hours of BBS Documentary Interviews · · Score: 1

    LORD is what got me hooked to the scene.
     
    The trick was to stay 1 level below everyone else so they couldn't attack you when you stayed at the inn.
    Nobody could handle a 'deathblow' special attack, even when I was 2 levels below them :)

  7. Re:etc-update STILL sucks on Gentoo 2005.1, Experimental Live CD Released · · Score: 1

    alias etc-update="dispatch-conf" :) now it's the default

  8. Daniel Robbins on Microsoft Linux Lab Manager Responds · · Score: 1

    This interview was everything I was expecting it to be. It made the Microsoft OSS research department sound like an OS multicultural utopia. I was hoping there would be some mention of drobbins http://www.gentoo.org/news/20050613-drobbins.xml

    How is Daniel Robbins fitting in at Microsoft? Is he respected or ridiculed? These are the questions I wanted to see asked.

    He moved mountains in the Open Source community, and he did it all from his own pocket book. I imagine he is getting all the respect he deserves there, but I would like to hear a little bit about it.

  9. Simple fix on Feds Hack Wireless Network in 3 Minutes · · Score: 1

    Just don't broadcast your SSID! This will prevent war-drivers/feds from detecting your network, thus making them move onto a much more worthy target :p

    /me fixes his tinfoil hat

    The feds can probably crack 128bit encryption with their eyes shut.

  10. Ways around Kazaa spyware on Secret Kazaa Documents Revealed in Court · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Option 1
    kazaa lite is like the holy grail of windows p2p clients. If you search near and far then you just might be able to get your hands on this piece of p2p goodness.

    Option 2
    grab giFT! This is the most amazing p2p client I've come across because you can install modules that allow it to connect to all the p2p networks! gnutella, fast track and others at the click of the mouse!
