  1. Re:Regardless of which..... on What's New With IE, Firefox, Opera · · Score: 2, Interesting

    amaya, a web browser which is ONLY w3c compliant, and made by w3c people will crash on 90% of the sites out there on the web, if not more. it crashes on msn.com...

  2. Re:Dear Parents... on Blizzard Sued for Death of Gamer · · Score: 1

    This is a 13 year old, his parents were probably making him play the game to get virtual things they could sell for real money. That has turned out to be quite a business especially in countries like china from what I read. :)

  3. Re:No, they don't need free software on Microsoft Thinks Africa Doesn't Need Free Software · · Score: 1

    am i missing something, or is this the company who implies software should be intuitive to use... and isn't the point of most software to be unintrusive, and just let me do what i want, w/o ANY errors.

  4. Re:Oregan? on Rural Oregon Leads the Way for Large-Scale WiFi · · Score: 2, Insightful

    let's try to spell it correctly... it's not new yark is it? besides, some one might search for oregon and wifi, and not find what they're looking for.

  5. Tyan 2 motherboards not being dual core ready on AMD Files Antitrust Lawsuit Against Intel · · Score: 1

    After reading the whole AMD filling, I'm starting to doubt if the Tyan Tiger S2875 and the S2875S aren't dual core ready because of a/an Intel "quota" requirement... if so, i'm thoroughly pissed off at intel now. Looking at Tyna's lineup, there are other opteron boards not dual core compatible, and just as many that are according to this: http://www.tyan.com/support/html/cpu_athlon_duron_ opteron.html I can't seem to find a particular pattern that might say the S2875 should be dual core ready, and I don't know if Tyan is a staunch AMD supporter, it seems like it is (it also seems like anyone would have to be to put up with Intel and AMD at the same time, from the full brief I read). This is all I can find other than emailing Tyan myself: http://forums.amd.com/lofiversion/index.php/t45729 .html BTW, I have the Tyan Tiger K8W S2875

  6. Re:"Scathing" != "Untrue" on Linux For Losers According To De Raadt · · Score: 1

    Maybe somebody has said this already, but isn't cursing or leaving rehtorically funny notes in the code allowed? All the CS people I know turn in programs where the documentation has cursing in it, and the prof 'looks the other way' becasue it is funny. It's really a part of code writing... isn't it.

  7. Re:It is amazing.... on Microsoft to Introduce PDF competitor 'Metro' · · Score: 1

    I would've thought they would introduce a metro printer available to XP users from the first bootup, shared so us linux folks can print to it, and integration with office/outlook... being 'closed' has worked so well for MS, why change now? and, my 3 questions: Why is it that to compete effectively (and win) microsoft turns to being 'open' all of a sudden? Can they not extend this model to the rest of their line of 'fine and competitive' products? Has there been a case like this in Microsoft's past where they have been open on something (internally developed) other than a web-standard like CSS?
