  1. Re:Then perhaps do as the GP asks on Linux Kernel Exploit Busily Rooting 64-Bit Machines · · Score: 4, Informative

    That exploit requires user interaction. Even then it doesn't provide administrator access. Try again.

  2. Re:Oh what rubbish on Linux Kernel Exploit Busily Rooting 64-Bit Machines · · Score: 1

    Cool anecdote bro. Thanks for reminding us all that every network on the internet is configured exactly like yours.

  3. Re:integrated into Windows 7 on IE 9 Beta Strips Down For Speed · · Score: 1

    There aren't any new features that other browsers can't implement. No antitrust BS required.

  4. Re:astounding.. on DoD to Put Internet Router in Space · · Score: 1

    More importantly, why is this not +5? I need a new monitor now... :(

  5. Re:Who cares? on MySpace is Free Speech, Case Overturned · · Score: 1

    So you don't mind if I make a myspace.com page that says: For hot gay sex, call . Only available from 12 to 6 am.

    After all, who cares about what gets posted on myspace?

  6. Re:I agree on Why Powered USB Is Going to Fail · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Try a 2 1/2" drive instead of a 3 1/2". The smaller drives don't require a separate 12V supply and are easily powered by USB.

  7. Re:Sigh. on IBM Sued for Firing Alleged Internet Addict · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Oh, beakerMeep. I remember you from that party way back when. Everyone knows beakerMeep, right? Also, this was a very obvious self reply. Wake up and smell the karma whoring, mods.

  8. Re:I just don't get it... on Kansas Adopts New Science Standards · · Score: 1

    As more and more people start to realize that religion is a giant pile of lies, the tend to stop donating to the collection fund. This upsets the preachers who then start these ridiculous "grassroots" campaigns in an attempt to bring some of there flock of sheep back.

  9. Re:Wrong tag, should be Politics not YRO on Teens Prosecuted For Racy Photos · · Score: 1

    "Your rights, online" not "Your online rights"

  10. Re:Shouldn't be enforced in the fast lane. on Detecting Tailgaters With Lasers · · Score: 1

    What you said:

    On divided highways, tailgating rules should not be enforced in the fast lane if the state law requires slower traffic to keep right. In such cases, people holding up traffic in the fast lane should be pulled over and cited.

    In all other cases though, I support the enforcement of laws against tailgating.


    What I heard:

    "This law should apply to everyone but me."

  12. Re:Geographical distance on A Quantitative Analysis of Online Dating · · Score: 2, Informative

    Good thing you have no understanding of women at all... They want sex just as bad as men do, they just don't admit it for cultural reasons.

  13. Re:*whew* I totally misread that headline. ^^;;; on Women Get Lots of Info From Male Faces · · Score: 1

    You're not the only one. I was seriously disturbed for a moment there. :S

  14. Re:I've come to use... on Managing a Huge Music Collection? · · Score: 1

    Mod up, I'm using Mediamonkey to organize 12000+ songs, works amazingly well.

  15. Your sig on Guitar Hero Hacks · · Score: -1, Troll

    You are now on my foe's list. AFoes are modded -6. I don't read you, I don't mod you, I don't see you. Don't like it? Don't be an asshole.

  16. Re:Typosquatter gone Extinct on Microsoft 'URL Tracer' Hunts Typosquatters · · Score: 1

    This wins the thread. Everyone else can stop posting now. *wipes laughing tears out of eyes*

  17. Re:Good Riddance on MS Gives 60-Day Deadline to Web Devs · · Score: 0, Redundant

    No, we hate it because it's horribly insecure and it works on one platform only.

    The funniest part is that the top results are all $0.25

  19. Re:finally get to a thread early enough to moderat on Q & A With Canada's Michael Geist · · Score: 1

    and it is even a subject I have an opinion on... sigh.

    Good, you shouldn't be modding this thread anyways.

  20. Re:Will this make anyone look at OpenOffice.org? on Office Delayed, Too · · Score: 1

    I'm disappointed that I went through the entire thread and no one mentioned the real reason why Office 2007 is delayed:

    They had trouble making a 3D model of clippy to match the new Vista resource hog^W^W interface.

  21. Re:Wait for it, wait for it... on Highly Critical Hole Found in IE · · Score: 1

    Unfortunaletly, your post is at the bottom of the thread so I had to read it all anyways :P.

    Hardly, carbon dating isn't useful at 11 million years.

    Are you kidding me? SI is only 10 years old? I suggest you read the history section.

  24. Re:Priority- Pay for Performance on Vonage Files Regulatory Complaint Over QoS Premium · · Score: 1

    They are using packet shaping to limit DC++ uploads down to 1 kB/s. It wouldn't surprise me at all that they are shaping VOIP as well, mostly because they recently introduced a VOIP service.

    Yes.
