  3. Re:my version on Google's X Files Vanish · · Score: 1

    doesn't show up right in Safari, so I write it up as a failure to pay hummage to OS X.

  4. My Question on Spammers Sue Spam Victim For $4 Million · · Score: 2, Interesting

    How the hell do spammers get rights like this to be able to sue someone who asks from them to stop sending stuff to him? I mean, can't we make a do not spam list like the do not call list. Or are the telemarketers going to use this as presidence and start calling me agian?

  7. Blood, Pee, your in on MS to Trade Passwords for 2-Factor Authentication · · Score: 2, Funny

    First you give some blood, then you give a urine sample, then they know its you.

  8. Re:Ownership vs. Licensing on Clash of the GPL and Other IP Agreements? · · Score: 1

    But what if he GPLed his code too and already released it, can they still claim it? Because, couldn't someone else be using his work right now?

  9. Re:I think I speak for all of us when I say... on Ask Mozilla Foundation Chief Mitchell Baker · · Score: 1

    Yeah, here is a good question. Do you feel like you are the most powerful woman in the world right now? You know, since Carly Fiorina is gone form HP, and Mozilla foundation is becoming an influential part of open source as one of the biggest projects to catch the public's eye. If anyone can add to this so its not just a Yes or no question, that would be nice.

  10. I'm not sure on 1.4mm Thick Gigabit Ethernet Cable · · Score: 1

    I'm not sure if I would want to run my ethernet cable though a window like they have pictured. And like someone said before, does it have good protection of the data going though the cable? Because it would be pointless to run this cable if its easy to cause data loss. If they little to no data loss, and a good price, I might want to use it instead of some regular size wires.

  11. Re:iTunes? on LinuxPPC64 Contest · · Score: 1

    I would think that is something Apple wouldn't mind having ported. I mean, less work for them to do, and they increase their market in digital music. I know that you might think that it would undermind their PC sales, but Linux isn't quite ready for mass desktops yet. So, they could get the real geeks to start using iTunes.

  12. Re:Pedantry on Build Your Own Bluetooth Sniper Rifle · · Score: 1

    I used physically instead of "push buttons on key pad and navigate menus", because I thought everyone would get the idea. I'm sorry I missed the conference on over used words. I'll remember to put it in my day planner.

  13. conneting to my phone on Build Your Own Bluetooth Sniper Rifle · · Score: 2, Interesting

    When connecting something to my phone, I have to enter a pin code. Like my PowerBook, I have to physically tell the phone to allow a contaction via bluetooth, then enter a pin code that the PB gives into the phone to have them conneted to eachother. I even had to enter a pin code into my phone when connecting my headset. So which providers just let anything connect via bluetooth, or am I still open to attack?

  16. You don't need to show them what you do on Software Engineering Demo for a K-5 Career Fair? · · Score: 1

    You can show them what a software engineer can do. I would show them some code, then show them a game and say that that code made that game. Try to associate something kids know already with what you do, and I think games is the way to do it.

  17. Re:Simple.. on How Do You Store and Reconcile Email Archives? · · Score: 1

    yep, I recently lost all my emails in my hotmail account due to something they were doing. Which, I only use that account to get security updates and MS Tech show invitations. So I didn't lose anything important.

  19. I think Apple is having fun with the rumor sites on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger to Arrive in April · · Score: 1

    I have notice that every time now that there is a rumor about a product release. The date comes and goes, then a couple days later or a week later they finally give it out. I wonder if they do this after the rumor comes out, or they give out a false date to throw everyone off. I'm guessing that it will be April 4-8 that we will see this produce gets showen. Also, has everyone seen Sneak preview: Engadget RSS feed as seen via Tiger Quartz Extreme .

  20. Folding on IBM Provides Access to Blue Gene On Demand · · Score: 1

    So are they going to be doing Folding@Home when no one is using it.

  21. Re:WAIT... on Apple's Dev. Tools Hint @ Dual-core G5 & Quad Mac · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and you can get good cooling in the PM right now for a 3Ghz dual chip, because its a dual chip. Not another set of cpus that need their own cooling. But to put that in an Xserve, you will need to redesign the cooling system. That is why PM first, Xserve second. Also note, that not all 9 fans deal with the Processors, and the new 2.5 are liquid cooled too. It will take time to get that liquid cooling into a 1U unit.

  22. Re:WAIT... on Apple's Dev. Tools Hint @ Dual-core G5 & Quad Mac · · Score: 1

    Then how to you account for the PM having 2.5 Ghz chips and the Xervers have only 2.3 Ghz? Its easier to bring it out in the PM first since there is more room to be able to work on getting rid of heat. Then you can move to the Xservers, and that is probably why its 2.3 Ghz in the Xservers.

  23. Re:The invisible elephant on Apple Backs Blu-ray · · Score: 1

    Yeah, and I believe that they have already expressed that HD would not be very good for porn. But they will be able to have more content, wether that be interviews with the ladies or advertisements for other titles. Other than that, they can up the quality of the video a little bit without going to HD so that they can keep those 10+ years from completely showing though.
