  1. Re:cuz vista is coming out. on Windows XP Service Pack 3 Not Due Until 2007 · · Score: 0

    Yup...I totally agree, a Service Pack in the world of M$ shouldn't be the priority.

  2. Re:Interesting commentary on this... on Windows XP Service Pack 3 Not Due Until 2007 · · Score: 0

    Hmm....new os with much newer functionality or minor changes to a 4 year old OS...Think I will take the newer one.

    But seriously, look at the fact that M$ releases security fixes, a service pack isn't a huge priority nor should it be. Anyone in I.T. waiting to update until a Service Pack is released needs a head examination. So this commentarty is rather moot.

  3. Re:Good because... on Google to Buy Opera? · · Score: 0

    Hmm...cant say that I've noted that... On Windows ... I have 5 extensions active, a pretty graphical theme (AquaTint [rocks btw]) and w/ 5 tabs open (some pages having Flash content) and FF is right around 68 megs and 0-5 cpu usage. Iexplore.exe - 5 windows open to the same places, 54 megs, 14% cpu. Of course IE isn't checking my email, monitoring the weather, telling me the time in 5 different places and handling my temp text files....one can also argue that having more windows open (since IE doesn't have tabs) is more thread heavy resulting in more CPU usage.

    Roflmao

    Yeah prolly...and they will add the "different platforms version at some point" tag. :P

    *really wants gtalk on Linux*

  5. Re:Propaganda machine in action? on Cyber Attacks on US Linked to Chinese Military? · · Score: 0, Troll

    Hmm...good point. Esp. w/ the Bush Admin. trying to find ways to curb the export gap between the US and China. Of course, if that were the case we'd be seeing anti-Japan, anti-EU....but I wouldn't put it past our lovely GOP-controlled government.

    GOP: Blame them! They did it! *runs away w/ embezzled funds*

  6. Re:More information and a few questions: on MS Excel exploit on auction · · Score: 1

    The -selling- of vulnerabilities in software is criminal activity any way you shake it. This kind of information should be posted in the right place.

    Why should an admin have to -pay- for the information? ...sounds kinda like blackmail in a sense. O_o

    I assume the guy was actually selling the info on how to exploit, therefore putting valid users and companies at risk....hmm...kinda sounds a tad bit little illegal to me...

    So yes, eBay did the right thing here, imo.

  7. Slashdot needs to pick up the pace here... on Gmail Gets RSS · · Score: 1

    Gee this feature was added to GMail at what, prolly midnight this morning? Zonk posts it at 3:05PM? Sheesh...pick up the pace. I actually waited today just to see how long it would take, I noted the change at about 11 (late morning today, hee).

  8. Re:Fight in Cyberspace? on The New Air Force Mission? · · Score: 1

    WAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA !

    DoD - Department of Dawdling ..and we pay for this. O_O

  9. Re:I can't even tell on Next Generation of MP3 Glasses · · Score: 1

    Yeah...esp people who are on the phone w/ their mini head set and looking -right- at you as they talk. -_- People like that need a good slapping for manners. :D

  10. Rejected Tissue... on First Face Transplant · · Score: 1

    So if she stops taking the drugs, will her body eat her new face? That's just nasty. :\

  11. Re:About time on FCC Report Supports a la Carte TV Pricing · · Score: 1

    All I want is Adult Swim....my hell....why do I have to get freaking Senate TV? Who the hell watches that stuff or would -knowingly- pay for it? It's nice that our goverment is graceous enough to allow us to have what we want. Thanks government! :D
