  1. Re:Where? on Best Buy Institutes Extreme Flex Time · · Score: 1

    Not if you're talking about these people.

  2. Re:Windows on How Many Windows? · · Score: 1
    I wish Windows had a feature like Fedora's multiple desktop stuff with the 4 thumbnails...

    I use VirtuaWin for multiple desktops.

  3. Recharging on USB To Go Wireless · · Score: 1

    Now I'll finally be able to recharge my digital camera wirelessly while transferring my pictures.

  4. Re:Ungrateful Bitching on Firefox 2.0 RC3 Released · · Score: 4, Informative

    If you hold shift you can drag folders. I don't know why they decided on that idea.

  5. Re:where is it? on Firefox 2.0 RC2 Review · · Score: 1

    It's under options - main - startup. When Firefox starts: show my windows and tabs from last time.

  6. Re:Loss of communication can only mean one thing.. on GMail and Sourceforge E-mail Bouncing Saga · · Score: 2, Funny

    Since all email is being bounced does this mean that it is an endless snowball effect with more and more emails being bounced back and forth?

    Who will have the last server standing? Google or Sourceforge?

  7. 8 for 1 on Microsoft Flubs Patch, Putting Users At Risk · · Score: 2, Insightful

    8 bugs have been replaced with 1 bug. That is an improvement unless the bugs it fixed were all minor bugs.

  8. Corrected link on Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 Set for December · · Score: 2, Informative

    Corrected Nexuiz link.

  9. Print version on When Consoles Lose, Everyone Wins · · Score: 1
  10. Nothing for you to see here. Please move along. on Fully Open Source NTFS Support Under Linux · · Score: 4, Funny
    Nothing for you to see here. Please move along.

    Is Slashdot testing out the NTFS writing ability on their site?

  11. DRM on Homemade iPod Hi-Fi mini · · Score: 5, Funny
    Just what the doctor ordered
    Worried about Digital Rights Management? So are we. With the iPod Hi-Fi mini we've gone the extra mile. Although the 400k floppy disk drive has been removed we were left with the nagging feeling that someone would figure out how to slip a disk through the slot and copy at least part of a song. Have no fear. Introducing Dr Mesh(TM) a high tensile grill that neatly fits the floppy drive slot preventing even imaginary piracy, yet allowing sound through unimpeded. What about those times when you realize that the song being played may not have been legally acquired? That's why the paper-clip hole remains in place. Once you'd use it to eject a recalcitrant disk, now we've carefully angled the hole so that, with a simple lunge, you can pierce the speaker cone, stopping piracy in it's tracks.
    Digital Rights Management. It's in your hands.

  13. Re:Yes, it runs (on) Linux! on Apple Releases Shake 4.1, Drops Price To $499 · · Score: 1

    Sadly, it appears that the trial version is only available for apple computers.

  14. Re:Yes, it runs (on) Linux! on Apple Releases Shake 4.1, Drops Price To $499 · · Score: 1

    I almost believed that it ran on Linux until you said that it requires a three-button mouse. Apple likes the mouse to have only one button.

  15. Re:I Wish on eBay to Enter Contextual Ads Market · · Score: 1
    I wish eBay would spend more time investigating scam artists and crooks.

    How can they investigate it? All that they have is one person's word against another.

  16. Re:Okay, where's the video? on Verified: Record-breaking Pitfall! Run · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'm guessing the video will probably made it to Speed Demos Archive sooner or later.

  17. PHP security checker on Tools To Automate Checking of Software Design · · Score: 3, Funny

    Making a tool to check most programs for errors sounds extremely complicated, but wouldn't it be possible to make a more simple tool that checks the security of a PHP/MySQL website?

  18. What if it doesn't work? on Get Your iPod Fix From a Vending Machine · · Score: 1

    What happens if the iPod you get doesn't work? I'm guessing you can't bring it back to the vending machine.

  19. With enemies like these, who needs friends? on Peter Moore Talks PS3, Wii, Portable 360 · · Score: 3, Interesting
  20. What about Firewall for a laptop? on Best of the Free Anti-virus Choices? · · Score: 1

    My free trial for Norton is about to run out on my laptop. Norton has a firewall that has different settings depending on if I'm connected on my home network or another network. Is there a free firewall that can do this? I want to disable Windows file sharing when I'm not on my home network.

  21. Re:Safari? on KDE Joins ODF Alliance · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Also, Google/GMail should support this format! Why not? They allow viewing of MS Word documents as HTML, why not an .odt? That would help a lot.

    If you want to suggest this to Google you can send in a suggestion.

  22. Re:How about "We lost the Immersion patent lawsuit on Immersion Queries Lack Of PS3 Controller Rumble · · Score: 1

    Why has Nintendo not been sued?

  23. Re:Intrusive. on When an Algorithm Takes the Wheel · · Score: 1

    What if there's a computer failure? If the car starts doing weird things I want to be able to turn this off.

  24. Re:Time for an Internet Reboot on The Future is XHTML 2.0 · · Score: 1

    In the case of TVs there is a standard format of signals that everyone follows. With web sites there's a jumble of code that's old coding mixed with new mixed with invalid code. I hope XHTML 2.0 doesn't become the mess that HTML has become.

  25. Re:There's another OS besides Windows? on World Community Grid Releases Linux Agent · · Score: 1

    For even more fun you can put that shortcut in your startup folder.
