  1. Re:iGoogle on Ask Slashdot: Which Google Project Didn't Deserve To Die? · · Score: 1

    I second that.

  2. Re:also tools on Ask Slashdot: Server Room Toolbox? · · Score: 1

    For some label machines you can get magnetic labels. Handy for labeling kvm's, so if you move things around all you have to do is move the label.

  3. *sigh*...whatever on How Apple Killed the Linux Desktop · · Score: 2

    Despite such reports of its death, I've been using linux on the desktop for 12 years and will continue to do so. I've no plans to drink the Apple kool-aid, ever. How about /. gets back to posting actual news instead of garbage articles of speculation and FUD?

  4. Re:Koha? on Ask Slashdot: Tech For Small Library Automation? · · Score: 2

    Actually, if you don't mind running a vm, my cohort Kyle has created a Koha virtual appliance available here: http://millruntech.com/koha/koha-virtual-appliances You can also set up Koha with self checkout. And I have to say I think your statement about Koha people is inaccurate. Just have a look at the very active mailing list archives to see otherwise. Occasionally you may have that but overall Koha folks are very willing to help.

  5. Really all they need... on NTSB Recommends Cell Phone Ban For Drivers · · Score: 1

    is a ban on dumbasses. The best device anyone can use while driving is their brain, but there seems to be a lack of that, at least where I live.

  6. So, as a knitter... on Graphene Spun Into Meter-Long Fibers · · Score: 2

    my first thought was how soon will graphene yarn become available?

  7. Re:Other alternatives? on Ask Slashdot: Best Flash-Friendly Router To Replace Aging WRT54GS? · · Score: 1

    What's so wrong with a little overkill? :D

  8. Oh, well... on After Firing CEO, Yahoo Puts Itself Up For Sale · · Score: 1

    Yahoo sucked anyway. Although I did meet my husband on their personals site....he's the best thing I ever found on the Internet! :D

  9. Thanks! on Rob "CmdrTaco" Malda Resigns From Slashdot · · Score: 1

    CmdrTaco, it's been an honor. Thanks, & best wishes!

  10. Re:300,000 years to get there on Gliese 581d Confirmed as 'Habitable' Exoplanet · · Score: 1

    There have been reports that humans are no longer evolving even here on earth, since at least the last few thousand years.

    That explains *a lot*.

  11. Yes! on YouTube Founders Acquire Delicious · · Score: 1

    Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Obviously, YES!

  12. Re:And Windows is? on Is Linux At the End of Its Life Cycle? · · Score: 1

    starting?

  13. Re:So what's the word, people. on Stuxnet Worm Claimed To Be Devastating In Iran · · Score: 2, Funny
  14. Re:We live in a multimedia word on Barnes and Noble Bookstore Chain Put In Play · · Score: 1

    Duh! Take the kids to the library, where they can bring home a stack of books for free!

  15. Suspicions Confirmed! on Given Truth, the Misinformed Believe Lies More · · Score: 1

    Well, that pretty much explains the whole religion thing. Drat.

  16. Re:Tigerdirect - avoid on Which Vendors Do You Trust For PC Parts? · · Score: 1

    Yes, TigerDirect utterly sucks! Avoid them like the plague. I buy most of my parts from newegg, but I live in Pennsylvania so I don't have to worry about the sales tax.

  17. brings new meaning to the term 'crash'! on Microsoft Bets Big On Computing For the Car · · Score: 1

    Kind of like that episode of Doctor Who...

  18. Re:LIQUID ALUMINUM??????? on Bizarre Properties of Glass Allow Creation of "Metallic Glass" · · Score: 2, Funny

    Unlike Windows...
