  1. Re:But on Spam King to Sing For Feds? · · Score: 1

    spam (just like mp3 downloads) funds terrorism. there. now we have the appropriate justification.

  2. Re:Just one question on Test Drive Your Dream Job · · Score: 1

    I believe it's "the hardest working man in porn". but I could be wrong.

  3. Re:stupid energy noob question on Organic LED Could Replace Light Bulbs? · · Score: 1

    There's also the factor that you probably don't always want to be heating your home; you do have an air ocnditioner, yes? if not. well. having lived in the south central US extra heating isn't always so handy to have around. particularly from about May to the end of September.

  4. Re:"Time to get rid of the duct tape?" on The World's Strongest Glue · · Score: 1

    Per an NPR story, that's not a problem as there is some sort of bio solvent that will make the glue give up fairly easily.

  5. Re:at last on Advances in Bio-weaponry · · Score: 1

    And! you can save money and minimize risk farther.. outsource it to India or China.

  6. Re:Be afraid... on Microsoft Helps Write Oklahoma's Anti-Spyware Law · · Score: 1

    fucking hell. first that nitwit from outside of OKC with the linux spyware stuff.. now this. soon I'll have to leave my CS degree (from an Oklahoma University) off any job applications; they won't take me seriously. you're killin me, guys.

  7. Re:flamebate? on Paul Allen's Microsoft Experience · · Score: 1

    Feh. as if I could run low on my inexhaustible supply of MS hate :) if only I could harness it for something more useful.

  8. Re:Netcraft confirms on DDoS on Domain Registrar · · Score: 1

    Great Scott!

    who could have perpetrated this criminal caper on such a classic clown? Could this mean the end of our caped crusader? tune in tomorrow.. same bat-time. same bat-website.

    I wonder if batman.com is working on an alibi

  9. Re:64-bit owners too smart on Online Test Measures Speed of your Brain · · Score: 1

    for what it's worth.. it's not flashtastic, it's shockwave.. so (as far as I'm willing to try to figure out for myself) it won't work under 32 bit linux browsers (or.. ones that I'm willing to run.. specifically firefox) either. oh noes. there's blood in my alcohol supply. quickly, more beer.

  10. everything to the desktop? on Sysadmin Toolbox Top Ten · · Score: 1

    He seems to be a really big fan of putting everything to the desktop.. which may be just fine, but.. what the hell kinda busy ass background are you going to put up with? and everyone else has already noted that the title for this is terribly misleading. virtually none of these are real sysadmin tool (in the way nc or egrep or tar or ssh are tools).

  11. Re:My Top Ten on Sysadmin Toolbox Top Ten · · Score: 1

    you forgot cat.. it'll work as a vi replacement in a (seriously) pinch.

  12. Re:$50K for 12 months? on American Idol for Security Geeks · · Score: 1

    I'm more worried that it might attract the same sort of crackpots, attention seekers and people who quite obviously shouldn't be doing this type of work (see William Hung or any of the first shows of any season), and not knowing any better people might follow their advice from the show. ala if you have to pick a new password every month, be sure to use something very familiar to you plus a number you can increment. like jimbo1205 for your december 05 password. or use magnets to hold your important backup floppies to your file cabinet, so they won't get lost! (ok... nobody uses backup floppies anymore... but still)

  13. Re:fp on Suing Google Over Pagerank · · Score: 2, Insightful

    aren't we kinda there already? I can't count the number of seemingly good links I've followed from google that end up sticking me on a stupid Ad page with zero content and most of it's links broken.

  14. tinfoil hat time on Internet Searches Reveal CIA's Secrets · · Score: 2, Interesting

    what if all the leaked info is just a cover to make a cuase for the justic dept to be able to get access to search engine data and delete/change ndexes and data as needed to protect covert operations? In related news, I've spent several hours playing splintercell... does this qualify me as a CIA agent, now?

  15. ah and what a list it is to be on... on Total Information Awareness still Running · · Score: 1

    maybe more people need to start using emacs for email and ending everything with esc x spook

  16. Re:KaZaa on Digital Music Enjoys Golden Week · · Score: 1

    and your theory presupposes that people who received Ipods have not a single CD to their name and/or they can not rip those to the player. Or was I misinformed that the itunes product could rip mp3s from CDs?

  17. Re:Go outside? on 365 Nights of Skywatching · · Score: 1

    the feed could be useful to people in terribly light polluted areas (Bay Area, DC and NYC come to mind). It could easily take an hour of driving to get to a point where it's dark enough to see anything (and then it could be difficult to find an appropriate place to stop)

  18. Re:best simpsons seasons are past? on Behind the Scenes of The Simpsons · · Score: 1

    I think wo covered this is a myth class once; Humans have a tendency to think the past was always better. People remeber the good and let the bad slide, somehow.

  19. Re:I for one .... on Raining Extraterrestrial Microbes in Kerala? · · Score: 1

    Perhaps Prince is the modern day Nostradomus. Only his specs were tinted deep blue, turning the red rain purple?

  20. Re:The billion dollar question... on Why Haven't Online Newspapers Gotten it Right? · · Score: 1

    Isn't part of the problem then trying to sledge hammer in the web technology to fit the older notion of how a newspaper should look? Other sites are reasonably to very well adjusted to being viewed by any browser and while that might leave lots of room for things to be fairly ugly (either you have to have pages that support nothing more than the lowest common denominator... lynx? or you have ot have tons of browser checks and change the page accordingly), it can be done. That being said, the thing that has always left me the most POed about online news papers is their stupid registration/login/attempts to charge me for content with ads all over it. Baltimore Sun, I'm looking in your direction.

  21. where to look... on Implementing the Bureaucratic Black Arts? · · Score: 1

    I'd suggest the 48 laws of power. I forget the author(s), but I ordered it from amazon. it's possibly the best book I've ever read.
