    Pen and paper is the only way to go for note taking.
    Aaaah, no, that constant scribbling and scratching on the paper is driving me nuts, I could poke a pen through both my eyes each time I'm sitting in a pen-and-paper-only lecture! And that breathing of the guys beneath me! And the sound of their hair growing!

    Yeah, but the point is, so far there isn't an anti-CAPTCHA tool that can automatically guess any CAPTCHA, ever. Current tools usually are based on a groundwork done by a living simian.
    Well, if you know beforehand which type of CAPTCHA you need to guess, it can be pretty accurate... But yeah, it's not like it works for any given CAPTCHA...
    And say what you want about the repetitiveness of pr0n, at least from machine vision point of view it's pretty hard to tell apart pr0n and non-pr0n. =)
    Never said anything contrary... :)

    Were you living behind the moon for the last years? There are only a few CAPTCHA-types left capable of defeating scripts...

  4. Re:Hate to break it to you, but English is... on IBM Germany Leaving Vista for Linux · · Score: 1

    As a German, I call bullshit on that... There is a trend on using (too much) English here, but it's far from "primary" or even official...

    But, getting pissed because a German web server does not have English content is assine.
    Also, heise.de does have some English content (it doesn't have this particular article, though)...

    I'm left-handed, you insensitive clod!

    Strange, worked for me (located in Germany) right now...

  8. Re:quicktime or mpeg format? on Fear of Girls, a D&D Documentary · · Score: 1

    That's a really good question... I've never seen a flash movie's audio not getting out of sync with the video...

  9. Re:Apart from being slashdotted on How Interesting is Your IP Address? · · Score: 3, Informative

    And you do realise that you failed to understand a simple sentence? He didn't say "It's not that nerdy", but "It's not that it's not nerdy", which is quite a difference...

    Hey, that's /my/ catchphrase!
