  1. So wait... on Gmail Gets RSS · · Score: 3, Funny

    If Slashdot's RSS feed is a default, could Web Clips Slashdot Slashdot?

  2. Which reiteration of Link? on Is Link About to Die? · · Score: 1

    I mean, there are many different Links from each few games, but I don't think losing on Link will end the onslaught of Hyrulians popping out new Links.

  3. Re:An example of the advantages of the new windows on Debugging Microsoft.com · · Score: 1

    Too bad gaim was reporting connection errors for the past hour on AIM for me.

  4. So what am I missing? on Free Wi-fi Prompts BellSouth to Withdraw Donation · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Are they being jackasses and withdrawing their offer because they're not being used for the wifi or because they think if they city can afford wifi they can afford to buy the building from them? Either way, this is a seriously stupid PR move.

  5. Re:GOOD! on France Hostile To Open Source Software? · · Score: 1

    But riots take place outside... In the sunlight... Isn't outside a hater of open-spurce software because it takes people away from it too?

  6. You sure that's it? on Driving Away Teens With High Frequency Noise · · Score: 1

    Maybe the crime rate decreased because less teens were getting illegal abortions, and the doctor's weren't being charged with a crime for aborting a child? Just a thought.

  7. Like the Verizon commercials say... on What Makes a Good IM Client? · · Score: 1

    It's the network.

  8. Re:Today on Driving Away Teens With High Frequency Noise · · Score: 1

    You forgot "Loss of hearing in teens blamed on video games and evil music".

  9. Wait, I'm 17... on Driving Away Teens With High Frequency Noise · · Score: 1

    But what's wrong with country?

  10. Re:Wonderful on Driving Away Teens With High Frequency Noise · · Score: 1

    What about teenagers that, you know, actually don't act like pricks? Or should they be punished for simply being an age where some other people the same age do bad things?

  11. Re:I hope it doesn't get widely deployed on Driving Away Teens With High Frequency Noise · · Score: 1

    Last I checked, teenagers are considered minors, therefore are not considered full citizens, and therefore have very limited rights. Age discrimination is nothing new. After all, teenager do commit many crimes and are generally irritating.

  12. So then... on Pandora Radio from Music Genome Project · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Is it anything like Last.FM, or does it run independant of other users? If it runs independant of other users, I'd say Last.FM would win in that category, because it's showing you what other people that listen to the same music that you do like.
    I think Last.FM and this have the same aim, recommending music you might like, but I think Last.FM pulled it off better.

  13. Re:hehe. on Stealing Legos for fun and profit? · · Score: 5, Funny

    Dunno, but I'm sure all the pieces will come together at the end.

  14. Re:Switch... on Time Saving Linux Desktop Tips? · · Score: 1

    Yep, if you're looking for ways to save time, Windows is the way to go, since it tries to simplify everything, which is good for average businesses. Linux is good for places that do things like custom content and web servers.

    Goes to show you that both Linux and Windows each have their strong points.

  15. Re:Hmm... Noticed something... on Google Opens U.K. Cybercafe and Testing Lab · · Score: 4, Insightful

    If they switch Operating Systems altogether, they'll probably lose a ton of users, seeing as most associate Windows with computers. If average users see Firefox, most likely they'll feel like it's unfamiliar and feel a bit edgy about it, but to use a different OS altogether? That in itself would put off a lot of people in one move.

  16. Hmm... Noticed something... on Google Opens U.K. Cybercafe and Testing Lab · · Score: 4, Informative

    Perhaps it's also to promote Firefox as well? I noticed that the browser used in the screenshots was Firefox. I wonder if Firefox is the only thing installed, or if Internet Explorer is also on there?

  17. Re:*INX Has One Advantage Over Windows.... on Novell Doubts Microsoft Latest "Linux Facts" · · Score: 1

    So if Microsoft posts all the names of the linux distros on their site and prefixes them with $sys$, will all those distros disappear?

  18. Re:Well... on Novell Doubts Microsoft Latest "Linux Facts" · · Score: 1

    Windows 98 has quite a few security holes, but it's more secure than an XP box running a server because Windows 98 is obsolete, and with it, the exploits become lost, forgotten, and ignored.
    So one could say a 98 box could run a small website more securely than some other boxes.

  19. Microsoft getting desperate? on Novell Doubts Microsoft Latest "Linux Facts" · · Score: 1

    I've seen these "Get The Facts" in some Google Ads as well.

    Is Microsoft that desperate to buy advertising space on Google?

    I, for one, welcome our new Colored Bubble overlords.

    This is the internet, you don't need to be a hot girl.

  23. Barney's Hide and Seek on Industry Folks Talk Underrated Games · · Score: 1

    Barney's Hide and Seek was kickass, but underrated. I used to spend hours playing the damn thing when the game was released!

  24. The ultimate nerd achivement? on Japanese 'Minerva' Robot Lost in Space · · Score: 2

    So, will people start trying to remotely install Linux on it?

  25. Re:Why not integrate with Adsense? on Google Launches Web Traffic Analysis Service · · Score: 1

    Actually, it wouldn't make much sense to integrate it with Adsense. Seeing as adsense relies on the content of the page it's on, it wouldn't matter how the page looks to adsense. Adwords integration would help Adwords advertisers see what keywords keep people on their site longer, making a bit more sense than adsense integration.
