  1. Re:not much info given on Universal to Offer its Movies Online · · Score: 1

    I'll bet your left nut that they intend to use Windows Vista and High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. Can't do that, lost it during the "really unix has a bigger user base the windows, it does, really.. er.. put away that knife there, i tell you.. put it away" bet.

  2. Re:Hrm. on Making Ice Without Electricity · · Score: 1

    Same in Ottawa, evaporates in the summer, freezes in minutes in winter. Don't need no stinkin' device for that hehe

  3. Re:Water City on 9 Weeks to Pump Out New Orleans? · · Score: 1

    The Dutch don't get hurricanes. We don't huh?, thats funny, cause i can remember storms during the fall that had hurricane speeds to it, along with springtide and other various things nature throws in. Still no flooding occured then.. why?, cause the system in place works. The good people in new orleans should revise their "water strategy", I'm sure that Dutch engineers will be more then happy to help them out. For those who say "yeah but new orleans is below sealevel",guess what so is 2/3's of the netherlands, the place i grew up in was 7 metres below sealevel. So in a lot of ways the New Orleans area is similair to the Netherlands. It's just that we figured out ways to keep the water out (for now anyways).

  4. Ahh google browser again eh.. on Google Releases GDS 2.0 · · Score: 1

    I wonder when the gbrowser would show up again

  5. downwards compatible?, so is windows 3.x on RSS Version 3 Specs Up for Review · · Score: 1

    Can't see the use of RSS3 when pretty common elements are stripped out.. couldn't find the enclosure element, which is kinda vital for podcasters. Not to mention other elements that have gone MIA. Lite and full?, whats next RSS diet tips?, c'mon, we got enough flavours of the day..

  6. Re:Audio Only? on Podcasting · · Score: 1

    Nope seeing the enclosure tag can hold just about anything, its not restricted to audio. The application we wrote does both audio and video (http://www.lionhardt.ca/wps)

  7. No rss means it's not a podcast, it's just mp3 on Podcasting from Space · · Score: 1

    Nuff said!

  8. If pigs could fly on If Microsoft Went Open Source · · Score: 1

    see subject, says it all really

  9. Perfect vehicle for PodCasting on The Future of RSS is Not Blogs · · Score: 1

    Use a tool like WebPod Studio (http://www.lionhardt.ca/wps/) and you can see what RSS can do if applied within reason

  10. Outsourcing sucks. on Indian Call Centre Worker Sells Customer Details · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Gotta love that outsourcing eh..

  11. Woahaaaa on Microsoft Cuts Anti-Virus Support For Unix / Linux · · Score: 1

    I am not their fan either, but they are withing their rights here, Besides who really needs a AV for unix anyway ? 640kb should be enough for anyone.. remember that particular phrase?

  12. Re:The Moon Sucks on Back to Moon in 2015? · · Score: 1

    Glad to see there still are level headed people out there

  13. We'll see on The Rise and Fall of Blogs · · Score: 1

    Until blogging "matures" it's not likely to be as big as predicted, currently 70% of all blogs just lay dormant and take up space, of the remaining percentage few have anything decent to say, not unlike traditional broadcasters ;)
