  1. Re:That's great... on P4 2.2GHz Overclocked to 3.5GHz · · Score: 1

    When do we get 10,000RPM drives? What rock have you been hiding under for the last five years? I've had two 15000RPM drives for quite some time now, and a few 10000RPM drives before that.

  2. Only 3.5GHz? on P4 2.2GHz Overclocked to 3.5GHz · · Score: 2, Redundant

    And this happens 15 minutes after I submitted my story on the Intel Northwood 2,2GHz overclocked to 3675MHz.

  3. Re:Sure MS will 'fix' the Region code. on Slashback: Regionalism, Rivalry, Zensur · · Score: 2, Informative

    There is a CD available to write some stuff to your memorycard and make your PS2 able to select zone. It takes up a fair bit of the memorycard, and it is cumbersome to change zones.

  4. Re:PS2 too on Nintendo Game Cube Crashing? · · Score: 1

    nope. The room temp is approx. 20-22 degrees celcius.
    It sits on is own, dedicated shelf beneath my TV, which has plenty of space on the back. None of the boxes has been mistreated(atleast not by me).
    Most of the problems have been with the DVD-player (as far as I have been able to figure out). It doesn't seem like the other hardware fails.

  5. PS2 too on Nintendo Game Cube Crashing? · · Score: 1

    The Sony PlayStation 2 (great, dammit! :) keeps crashing after a while here... I'm actually on my 6th (sixth) system now, exchanging them as it gets too bad. Got the system software upgraded now too, so I'm hoping this one won't go bad on me.

  6. Re:Looking Inside Pixar on Review: Monsters, Inc. · · Score: 1

    Linux Journal had an article on Pixar and RenderMan (and the usage of Linux in a renderfarm) about the time Shrek was released. (August 2001 issue). It was quite an interesting read (Unfortunately I can't seem to find the article online, and I don't have the magazine at hand atm)

  7. Re:tips on Shhh! Constructing A Truly Quiet Gaming PC · · Score: 1

    Arctic Silver II

  8. Dial-tone protocol. on Copyright Claimed on Telephone Tones · · Score: 1

    Now, ISDN afaik uses a dialtone protocol. Does this use DTMF tones too? If that is not the case, I can safely dial any number from my home telephone. (Come to think of it, won't this apply to cellular phones to,using the GSM protocol to carry the numbers?

  9. Re:Uhhh... on Slashback: Safety, Transmissions, Breakage · · Score: 1

    Shouldn't that be 'The Bunker offers the ultimate in protection from a myriad of attacks including crackers, terrorist attack, elecro-magnetic pulse, NERF guns, electronic eavesdropping and solar flares.'?

    Sounds much better IMHO :)

  10. Loading time on OSNews Talks With the Konqueror Team · · Score: 1

    What you should try to keep the loading time to a minimum is 'objprelink'. Compile QT and KDE with objprelink and nice optimizations and drop debug-info. The speedup was incredible on my machine (dual pII400 w/384MB). KDE is no longer slow :) Even mozilla is responsive now. The 0.9.3 build that I'm using is incredible. It might have something to do with me compiling everything from scratch, but compiling just QT and KDE should do a major difference :) Objprelink can be found here: http://www.research.att.com/~leonb/objprelink/

  11. Re:KDE on OSNews Talks With the Konqueror Team · · Score: 1

    I'd really like cut and paste that works properly, which KDE's apps still haven't got quite right. KDE's clipboard-thing helps a lot, but it's pretty annoying at times. It pops up asking me about what I want to do when I mark an url in opera (Yes, I know that I can do something about that, I just haven't got around to doing that yet), taking focus away from what I'm doing. But it's imho the best Desktop Environment (Not to start a war, it's an opinion, not the truth :). It just needs a little work here and there.

  12. Cool stuff on Mindstorms' Next Generation · · Score: 1

    Now I can build myself a refridgerator that can automatically open a new can of coke when I'm thirsty!

  13. Code Green? on Code Red III · · Score: 1

    Isn't it time someone writes and releases a proper conter-worm now, and call it Code Green?
