  1. Re:Reliability on Super Door of the Future · · Score: 1

    I've had to jump and wave my hands to get automatic doors open on three occassions during the year. And I'm 183cm tall. Maybe something's wrong with my style... =X

  2. Do we really even have to ask? on Opening Up for Open Source · · Score: 3, Insightful

    If commercial closed software can do it, why couldn't open source software?

  3. Re:The Purpose of the interface? on New Display Interface Standard in the Works · · Score: 1

    It's funny how they say they are enabling broad access, when they are actually trying to remove it from the others.

  4. 70's all the way on Musical Wings Reduce Aircraft Stall Risk · · Score: 2

    How about Pigs on the Wing?

  5. Re:not enough info on Video Tombstones · · Score: 1

    The next Pixar movie will be rendered with a beowulf cluster of tombstones.

  6. Re:Speculation is useless on Speculations Intel's Next Generation · · Score: 1

    I've heard they eat pizza and have a rat as their leader.

  7. Re:Still a hoax on Australian Linux Trademark Holds Water · · Score: 1

    http://www.linuxmark.org/fees.html If your total projected annual gross revenue over US $1 million, you probably can pay the $5000.

  8. Re:Marketshare Stabilized on Firefox Share Slipped in July for the First Time · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You shouldn't.
    Unless you're a web designer. In that case you'd want them to use anything but IE.

  9. Re:What a ridiculous response. on Librarian Suspended over Patrons' Web Access · · Score: 1

    Perhaps we should cut men's balls and take the sperm that way. No unnecessary sex needed.

  10. Re:Simple solution on Librarian Suspended over Patrons' Web Access · · Score: 1

    You've forgot the worst thing: Reality. Not only people can see inappropiate material, they can even interact with it in realtime! I suggest we get rid of eyes, ears, nose and hands. Hands are the real tools of the devil, 93% of all crimes are done with hands.

  11. Re:Is it in their job description? on Librarian Suspended over Patrons' Web Access · · Score: 2, Interesting

    What could the head librarian really do? Sit behind peoples' backs eyeing for adult material? Not any porn filter works 100% reliably. I've no idea what "policies" could be implemented to prevent this happening. Perhaps a red alarm ringing and blinking when it detects the word 'sex' in a webpage. ;)

  12. Re:fantastic on Yahoo Passes Google in Total Items Searched · · Score: 1

    My google finds 743 000.

  13. Re:By hand on Epicrealm Uses Vague Patents to sue Web Sites · · Score: 1

    Ajax suits Greek mythology better.

  14. Re:Wait a minute... on EU Software Patent Directive Adopted · · Score: 1

    It also says this:

    The Council has introduced a new provision in order to clarify that in certain circumstances and under strict conditions a patent can cover a claim to a computer program, be it on its own or on a carrier.
