  1. So what's the verdict? on Geeks vs. Nerds · · Score: 1

    Should it be: Slashdot:News for Nerds or Slashdot:News for Geeks

  2. Re:luddite alert! on Username/Password - Is It Still Secure? · · Score: 1

    So what your saying is, writing a long winded in depth email is less of of an interuption than a phone call. I think not. From a patients point of view, I would much prefer to talk to someone. It would allow me to ask follow-up questions immediately. I don't know about you but I see an increasing trend of companies (particularly those involved in service based industries) "hiding" behind their email and voice mail systems. How many times have you sent an email to a co. asking for info and never received a reply. The same goes for voice mail. Do you think doctors/health care professionals will be amune to this?

  3. Re:No - moderate that DOWN - it is not 'informed' on Australia - Censorship Overload · · Score: 1

    Haradine voted against the internet censorship bill because he didn't think it went far enough!!!

  4. How 'bout getting out there and voting? on Australia - Censorship Overload · · Score: 1

    You blame the government, but you put them in office. That is not to say they are faultless, but you have to take some responsibility.
    If more poeple acting cared enough to vote, perhaps you would get more people in office who cared about what you wanted.

  6. Re:SELECT YOUR BLIPVERT on Lycos: Can't Get There From Here · · Score: 1

    >And we guarantee that you'll like us What sort of crap is that! What are they going to do, give us our money back?

  7. Re:I can't blame them. on Lycos: Can't Get There From Here · · Score: 1

    I thought the idea of search engines is to send people to other places, better or otherwise.

  8. DVD Region chips on DVD for Linux: an Interview With the Developers · · Score: 2

    A friend of mine had the offending chip in his DVD player replaced with one that would work with all regions.
    So even if hardware region protection is implemented it ain't hard to get around it.

  9. Re:Game play? on Ask John Carmack About Quake - or Anything Else · · Score: 1

    I HAVE played both and I agree, I would go a little further though and say it is "luke-warmed over"!
    IMHO eye candy does not maketh a game.
    Look out Q3, here comes TF2!
