  1. Re:What about US censorship? on Google Admits Compromising Principles in China · · Score: 1

    If you look closer at that, it unintentionally (and hilariously) backfires. They link to the C+D letter they were sent, which contains the URLs to all the sites it wanted removing in the first place.

  2. Re:When will the *AAs learn... on AllofMp3.com Breaks Silence · · Score: 1

    To get the likes of the RIAA to learn anything, you'd have to communicate with them in a language they understand - money, litigation or intimidation.

  3. The reality... on It's No Game At Apple · · Score: 5, Informative

    Their attempt at entering the games market was a flop. Not even a _spectacular_ flop, since nobody really noticed its existence.

  4. Re:Yet another reason... on The Worst Bill You've Never Heard Of · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The way I see it, this is yet another reason to pirate media instead of buying it.

  5. Re:Privacy Implications of IPv6 on 6Bone IPv6 Network Shutting Down Tomorrow · · Score: 2, Informative
  6. Re:Why? on AMD to Resell Transmeta Chip for Pay-as-You-Go PC · · Score: 1

    Less heat dissipation lets you fit more cores in.

  7. Re:No on Fedora Core 5 Re-spins Available · · Score: 1

    It's great for job security though.

  8. Re:Privacy Implications of IPv6 on 6Bone IPv6 Network Shutting Down Tomorrow · · Score: 3, Informative

    IPv6 has better than NAT: Pseudorandom, non-permanent IP addresses.

  9. Re:Aw shucks on Giant Ocean Vortex Discovered · · Score: 1

    But it has horrible mutated flying fish!11

    Who knows what other horrors are in there!

  10. Re:Sign of the Apocolypse? on 6Bone IPv6 Network Shutting Down Tomorrow · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If you're abbreviating the year to single digits, then it also started up on 6-6-6.

  11. Re:OLD CSS ??? on Sony's Obsession with Proprietary Formats · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Here's a better idea: How about instead of whining 2 months too late, you made a better design yourself and submitted it when you were given the chance to do so?

  12. Re:Off topic but, on Astronauts Lost Tools in Space, Forced to Improvise · · Score: 1

    Even weirder, if you scroll the page down and up it magically fixes itself. Reminds me of IE...

  13. Re:Land of the free! on Vast DNA Bank Pits Policing Vs. Privacy · · Score: 1

    There's more to freedom than speech.

  14. But does it run... on Ubuntu 6.06 Reviewed · · Score: 3, Insightful

    XGL?

  15. Re:like this? on Das Keyboard II: A Switch for the Better · · Score: 1

    Yeah, it's mechanical. If you press the keys in very slowly you can feel them clicking halfway.

  16. Re:like this? on Das Keyboard II: A Switch for the Better · · Score: 1

    I've got one in front of me. :) It's got mechanical switches. Noisy as hell but they never jam up unlike the 2-year-old Logitech one I had to replace. Also I think it's armour-plated or something since it weighs a ton.

  17. Re:Opera - best browser out there on Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.4 Released · · Score: 1

    The reason Opera is freeware on the desktop is the same reason Netscape was also forced to become freeware. Someone came along with a superior product and made it free first.

  18. Re:Really... more sabotage than TERROR, isn't it? on CyberTerrorism - Reality or FUD? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If anyone's the terrorist, it's the guy in the summary making all these doomsday predictions.

  19. CRLs = blacklists on SSL Cert Revocation Lists? · · Score: 1

    I do it the other way: delete all these default browser certs from companies I've never heard of, then only allow ones from websites I know and trust.

  20. 15 feet high? on Stupid Engineering Mistakes · · Score: 3, Interesting

    What on earth were they planning on doing with such a huge stockpile of molasses?!

  21. Re:So... on DirectX 10 Only On Vista · · Score: 1

    That's provided by SDL, which games like Doom 3 and UT2k4 use to run on OS X and Linux.

  22. Consoles and add-ons just don't mix. on Blu-Ray Should Have Been Optional on PS3? · · Score: 1

    The only thing that had any sort of success with upgrades is the N64, and that was mostly because it bundled them in with games that were designed for them.

    If they're sold separately, it causes a cycle where people won't buy them because there's no games using them and game developers won't design for them because nobody has them. See the 32X for an example.

  23. Re:I, for one... on Slashdot CSS Redesign Winner Announced · · Score: 1

    But isn't he the DeCSS overlord? Wouldn't that in effect make him a CSS Antichrist or something?

  24. Re:They already hold copyright on the word Tiananm on China Passes Internet Copyright Legislation · · Score: 1

    Under _US_ law, you can't.

  25. Re:Does a case matter on Treasures or Trash, 5 PC Cases for Gamers · · Score: 2, Funny

    It doesn't need to be brand new to run like a furnace - my athlon 1.2 keeps the room warm just idling.
