  1. Re:After I cancelled with Netflix on Netflix To Lose 1 Million Subscribers · · Score: 0

    Sarcasm not coming across as well as you had expected? As of now, there are of course no competitors from which to choose who offer even 1/2 of the content or flexibility of Netflix.

  2. Re:None of this (except the passwords)... on Hacker Exposes Parts of Florida's Voting Database · · Score: 0

    The carbon paper backed ballot is long overdue. Wait, what? NM... Back to my blessed ignorance...

  3. Since when.. on Just Months After Jeopardy!, Watson Wows Doctors · · Score: 0

    Would an average "new" patient have the slightest clue about how to describe an ailment? Feel pain in chest= Watson's instant heart ailment regimen that dispenses nitro glycerin on the spot? It could work if the "new" patient were in the medical profession and had some idea how to phrase the question in the form of an answer.. Patient: "It hurts when I do this" Watson: "What is, don't do that?"

  4. Re:Umm... on Rep. Bill Posey Introduces 'Back To the Moon' Bill · · Score: 0

    That goal is trumped by the needs of the Representative's Space Industry electorate which would benefit from just such a bill as this. A happy electorate is one that would consider re electing him.

  5. Re:Mozilla is selling out on Firefox 5 Details: Sharing, Home Tab, PDF Viewer · · Score: 0

    You can still achieve this with the Seamonkey branch.

  6. Re:Son of a BITCH on Google Fiber Comes To Kansas City · · Score: 0

    I will be enjoying these fruits with aplomb! As a resident of one of the poorest communities in the United States... I say it's our turn :).

  7. Re:Can this be real? on Man Pays $200,000 To Save Fake Online Girlfriend · · Score: 1

    I know mine would certainly be cheaper. Something just north of a paypal minimum commitment would more than suffice.

  8. Re:These cretins are NOT getting govt money on Kentucky Announces Creationism Theme Park · · Score: 1

    Nice try Christine O'Connell

  9. Bureaucrat advises.... on US May Disable All Car Phones, Says Trans. Secretary · · Score: 1

    Applying an over sweeping remedy to an issue that is really just an issue within his limited domain. Nothing to see here, please mute your phones so as not to alert the Federation of Lawn Mowers and their equally earnest effort to ban rocks in lawns...

  10. Re:Was Not Impressed at All on Lost Ends · · Score: 1

    I once had an idea what it was. I never observed it not never intend to.

  11. Re:Missing the Point on State Senator Caught Looking At Porn On Senate Floor · · Score: 1

    Please note that this is a State Senator. What he votes or does not vote on affects one state only.

  12. Re:Successful???? on Gas Wants To Kill the Wind · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Is there anything that an economist won't say or believe? I believe that economists can power the world with the wind they produce.

  13. Re:God job boys, on NASA Reproduces a Building Block of Life In the Lab · · Score: 2, Funny

    A argument can be made that this has already happened. LSD anyone?

  14. kckman on Microsoft Opening Outlook's PST Format · · Score: 1

    First thing many corporations turn off is the ability to save mail in PST files. One of the better Group Policies IMHO.

  15. Re:Screw Sharepoint on Microsoft May Be Inflating SharePoint Stats · · Score: 1

    LDAP, as a subset of AD, it isn't capable of some of the things a strict AD implementation offers. Many Microsoft shops choose not to make use of LDAP.

  16. Re:Screw Sharepoint on Microsoft May Be Inflating SharePoint Stats · · Score: 0

    Even for non-software projects, Redmine is superior in almost every way. The only downside is that it's written in Ruby, which means you'll need a somewhat hefty server if you're going to have more than a handful of users using it simultaneously.

    SharePoint leverages Active Directory for those corporations that choose to use it internally. Does Redmine? A brief look at the link tells me no.

  17. Re:But are they getting better? on Xbox 360 Failure Rate Is 54.2% · · Score: 1

    I hate to be the bearer of potentially neutral karma.. but, can you please cite independent research or links to support your assertions?

  18. Re:Can a Slashdot pilot tell us . . . on NTSB Says a Downdraft Killed Steve Fossett · · Score: 1

    Mod me troll.. but the improper use of "their" and "your" really gets under my skin.

  19. For sale... on The MST3K Crew Reunites For Live Webcast · · Score: 1

    went straight to cash. That was a mild disappointment.

  20. Re:Who gives a shit? on EBay Mulling Skype Sale · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Completely agree! There was never a fit for Skype and eBay. The user count is only a ploy to attract potential buyers. How many of the users are paying clients? if the number was 6% they would be ecstatic.

  21. Re:I don't get it on Microsoft Tries To Prevent Further Discovery · · Score: 1

    It is the internal bickering which is most interesting. Even MS executives didn't like the results.

  22. Re:Look at those wheels! on 100-MPG Air-Powered Car Headed To US Next Year · · Score: 1

    Wasn't the claim "1000 miles @ 96 MPG" and not "1000 miles @ 96 MPH"?

  23. Re:Two points about the article's headline. on Exploit Found to Brick Most HP and Compaq Laptops · · Score: 1

    My patch for this arrived today.

  24. Re:yeah on Original Marvel Comics Going Online · · Score: 1

    I can't remember the last time that I had photos developed since I started using a digital cam. Digital copies for this generation and those going forward will be more than satisfactory.

  25. Re:Vista needs the space on Turns Out Ubuntu Dell Costs $225 More · · Score: 1

    As I read through the posts one point came through clearly that nobody else seemed to catch. Yes, there are talented people here capable of troubleshooting Ubuntu issues. But, why wasn't the DELL computer setup properly in the first place? Are all of the DELL computers leaving the warehouse in the same poorly configured condition?
