  1. Re:Facebook Censoring Torrent Link on WikiLeaks Releases Cache of 400,000 Iraq War Documents · · Score: 1

    they probably just censor all pirate bay torrent links

  2. Re:Perhaps nobody else cares? on HDTV Has Ruined the LCD Market · · Score: 1

    that's what the ms screen magnifier is for. *ducks*

  3. Re:Perhaps nobody else cares? on HDTV Has Ruined the LCD Market · · Score: 1

    hmmm, didnt DECwindows have a display postscript-based gui in 1988. Very forward thinking stuff, like most of their products. Remember Altavista.digital.com? THATS what we need here. Every GUI element in a scalabe vector format, icons, etc.... And maybe even monitors with vector hardware acceleration. Didn't some 1980's arcade monitors have vector acceleration? Or is that something else entirely?

  4. Re:Problem still remains on Free Software Foundation Urges Google To Free VP8 · · Score: 1

    It seems that Youtube deletes the original upon compression. AFAIK google video doesn't. You can download the original video through a bookmarklet/favelet, unless downloading was disabled. Not totally on-topic, but I've always wondered what codec google video uses? It's quality and downloading speed always seemed great. Wikipedia says it uses Divx, but how is that possible if Divx isn't even part of Flash or the FLV standards?

    I have a 27" JVC, you insensitive clod!

  6. Re:Other sites with support exist as well on Firefox 3.5 Beta Boosts Open Video Standard · · Score: 1

    The W3C needed a media standard long ago. Also nice would be flv decoders builtin to the browsers, and flash's "stealing my mouse and keyboard clicks" would be gone forever!

  9. assembly on Best Paradigm For a First Programming Course? · · Score: 1

    IMHO, I think Assembly is the best because it forces you to start thinking about how the machine itself functions underneath. Art of Assembly is where I got my start.

  10. Re:Finally! on Adobe Releases C/C++ To Flash Compiler · · Score: 1

    you could have used gsview and ghostscript.

  11. Re:Riddle me this on 16 Interviews With Linux Kernel Hackers · · Score: 1

    That links shows only one result, this selfsame article. The correction from google is my linux annoyances as a hardened windows user

  12. patenting business methods? on McDonalds Files To Patent Making a Sandwich · · Score: 1

    We will soon know if businesses can patent business processes, or methods.

  13. Hilariously 'Agile' on When Agile Projects Go Bad · · Score: 1

    I guess it's not so agile after all: apt or ready to move

  14. Re:Well, you just saw the first propaganda salvos on Chinese Hacking of American Military Networks On the Rise · · Score: 1

    Bush was the lesser of two evils, in the eyes of the dimwitted fundamentalists who put him in office. Rambling on here, I just wish the U.S. had a vote of no confidence, like europe. Eg: I don't like either of them, so neither gets in office.

  15. Re:Well, you just saw the first propaganda salvos on Chinese Hacking of American Military Networks On the Rise · · Score: 1

    Are these even attacks or just spying? Are they targeting just us or?

    Stay away from Sony's Peta-file system (pronounce it out loud), lol

    What a terrific ad for online documents like gdocs and zoho

  18. Re:Bug on How to Search Today's Usenet For Programming Information? · · Score: 1

    I guess they want to get their value for paying the GIF patent cartel.

  19. Re:Bug on How to Search Today's Usenet For Programming Information? · · Score: 1
    Interestingly, they've added quotes to that html code:

    <select class="sef" name="lr">

    It makes me wonder if they use stricter, more standardized html code depending on the user-agent.

    Starship Troopers, lol.

  21. usenet groups archive never completed on How to Search Today's Usenet For Programming Information? · · Score: 1

    I think the truth behind google groups is that the google-friends mailing list, originally hosted on egroups [which was later bought by yahoo, and became yahoo groups], was the original impetus for creating google groups. Later they bought deja to save it from going bankrupt. Also note that their archive was never really completed like they promised. Just look at the alt.tv.simpsons summary. The number of posts from april 1995 drop way off right when the shows popularity was taking off.

    I thought they lost the project to someone else? I can't remember who though. You can probably find it here, on nerds 2.0.1 - a brief history of the internet http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=nerds+2.0.1& hl=en
