  1. Re:WTF - auto-tuner on Joke-e-oke Makes You a Comedian · · Score: 1

    You are sure you did a google on that for yourself when you posted it?
    Or did you just read the headlines for the results and think well that is what I am talking about?

    Or perhaps what the gp was talking about is a function present in most "vocal effects processors" ...

    Now that is a device I do know and have used ,try to play Pink Floyd without it.

    auto-tuner, hmm I had no idea I could sing better with my guitar tuning device on my microphone.

    "Another thing is your health. It may not be a good idea for health reasons to program all day long into your sixties."

    Me I don't worry about that, I'll bet that most coders won't make their 60 doing coding either way.
    But then again I could just as easily loose that bet.
    I'll see what happen in the next 34 years, till then I'll try to stick to work that is hobby like.

    Or is that another ball game?
    Usually there are more incompatibilities between 98 and XP then between Solaris and *BSD / Linux.

  8. Re:Its about time on Bounties for Gnome Optimization · · Score: 1

    Indeed your right, my fault was that half of the memory is reserved for windows (the OS) and the rest can be used for applications but that doesn't need to be allocated.

  9. Re:Its about time on Bounties for Gnome Optimization · · Score: 1

    Windows itself 40-50 MB? That is only possible if you got 64 MB ram and windows 95/98, otherwise it will be much more.
    Typical windows will at least eat half of your ram regardless if you got 265MB or 4 GB.

  10. Re:was a change required? on Wells Fargo Web-Enables ATMs · · Score: 1

    Maybe the poster has not excellent grammar skills, as long as his job isn't writing articles/books or something like that it has no effect on his work.

    But indeed it is questionable if an untrained non-educated personel should be called stupid.

    But it is stupid to let personal do tasks without proper training.
    That kind of training shouldn't be difficult either if the purpose of the training is "refuelling" the machine.

    I think that a plastic/paper map with nice pictograms should be enough training in this matter, if that is not enough the chance is quit high that the machine/procedure has a defective design.

    But hey who am I telling, since your translation is that the "GP" is "owned" I guess you knew that already!

    So that's the reason why you comment on the grammar and not on the content?

    Yeah the speed sucks but the bandwith is great!

    Perhaps trains have less burden on the ecology. But that is a non-issue for the most.

  15. Re:What Benifit? on Intel Flaunts Mac mini Knock-off · · Score: 2

    No good software? You mean those overpriced games? Anything else is in one way or another availible for the mac, you might need VirtualPC though.
    Being overpriced? How in * name can you call the mini overprized? If you want comparible performance with a commercial OS you will at least pay the same if not more.
    The benefit of a mac is that most things work the way it supposed to do instead of not working or working but not the way it supposed to.

    But anyway it's a nice wrapped up troll, you fooled me.

    It's amazing how management can kill an once well known and respected company (and the ones that merged into it).
    A real shame, much good technology got killed this way.
    Makes me feel sad, who knows how far mankind would have been if it wasn't for these egoists.
    What is so hard of following the concept of not doing the obviously wrong thing?

    Whoever modded my post above offtopic should consider getting a CT-scan.
    Design has everything to do how a security model works out, even when that model gets a critical user mass, as sugeseted by the op and in TFA.

    Perhaps I was naive to concider that on slashdot I don't need to explain why different design models have a different impact. Sheeezzz.

    Okay by this you assume that the (security) design of windows, unix and all other OS'es out there are the same and have the same effects? Naïve at least.
    Frankly 2003 with SP1 and XP with SP2 is getting there, it only took them a while.
