  1. Re:Funny as hell on 10 Terrible Portrayals of Technology in Film · · Score: 1

    Correct. you are supposed to be alive to these types of machines to work, they actually take a photograph of the blood moving around at the back of the eye ball. So if two screens come out exactly the same, the access is denied.

  2. Re:Website down already on 10 Terrible Portrayals of Technology in Film · · Score: 1

    No its not.

    They simply need to invent a new bench mark standard. The slashdot bench mark ;)

  3. Funny as hell on 10 Terrible Portrayals of Technology in Film · · Score: 4, Interesting
    The best one is in Days of our lives (yes, i was young and yes i was staying with my grandmother and no I didn't have access to a car: nuff said) when it took 3 episodes to delete one text file.. Man that progress bar took for ever to get accross. ;)

    My favourite (not stupid) take off of computer security is in Demolition Man where W/Snipes uses the guys plucked eyeball to get access out of the building. ;) very choice. (NP: This wouldn't work in real life (well shouldn't ;) ))

  4. Work to be found on How a Wiring Rack Should Look · · Score: 1
    There is a multitude of work for technicians to come into a corp environment and just rip and repatch and wire. I've done some really back breaking cabnet jobs (with before and after photos.).

    I really does make a big difference to the poor help desk guys when they gone down to a cabnet to repatch something for someone. I wish i had setups like in that link.. *very pretty*

  5. No surprise on Zero-Day IE Exploit In the Wild · · Score: 5, Insightful

    There are so many of these Zero Day exploits popping up that I'm just not surprised (or that interested) anymore. One thing i can't get over is how this is still happening? The ammount of stigma now attached to IE has really damaged the product. If they are wise (Personal Opinion) I would scrap the entire codebase of IE and start with an entireley new one for VISTA and change the name so the product gets a new start at life. I don't know, call it Vic the Vista internet client (or Voom sounds better). I switched to firefox quite a while ago, before that, Mozilla, before that Opera and what the hey i even think i was using Netscape before IE and have never looked back. Sorry IE ;).

  6. www.ifolder.com on How Do You Share Presentations Under Linux? · · Score: 1

    This is an open source groupware/colaberation software for your corporate network (*breath out*) . On a serious note; this is a pretty good software suite to help manage shared documents and such. Its compatible with both M$ and Linux. It is owned and developed by Novell and they have released it under an OpenLincense (i believe GPL but don't qoute me just yet.). I have seen this to be very successfull in a wide variety of applications. Try it out. http://www.ifolder.com/

  7. VR.... It's still here. on What Ever Happened to Virtual Reality? · · Score: 1
    VR never died.. It just went corporate ;)

    A Few Links..

    This one and
    This one .

    The later of which i would give my right eye for.. ;)
