  1. Hire laywers, not engineers. on Grannies and Pirated Software · · Score: 1

    Unfortunatelly, lawsuits have become nothing more than another source of income for companys.
    As Denny Crane and Alan Shore (Boston Legal, ABC Show) state, "It's all about the money. It's always about money". I'm still wondering how can the judges let it happen. I mean can't they see?!

  2. Re:Screwed up comparison on Intel Core 2 Duo Vs. AMD AM2 · · Score: 1
    In case you haven't noticed, they were matching clock speeds.
    E6300 with 3800+ (1.83GHz vs 2.0GHz)
    E6400 with 4200+ (2.13GHz vs 2.2GHz)
    E6600 with 4600+ (2.40GHz vs 2.4GHz)
    See?
    Also if you look at the graphs you'll see that E6600 beats FX-62 in pretty much everything and isn't nearly half FX-62's price.
  3. Re:Cancer, aging. on Tumor-suppressing Gene Contributes to Aging · · Score: 1

    Wrong, if you die you get older faster. Check out a 16 year old girl and a girl who died 16 years ago!

  4. Re:Oh please on Microsoft [to patent] Verb Conjugation · · Score: 1

    (Insert a Language here) is no expert system, its just a set of rules of how should you procced IF(). If person is plural then verbs go plural. Stuff like that... I don't see how can Microsoft make it an "expert system".. and it's so complex that I find it impossible to be put in a database, as it's also dynamic. Book writers help by making up new sentences every now and then (when they have nothing better to do)

  5. Re:This is a horrifying precedent on Google to Give Data To Brazilian Court · · Score: 1

    Yes

  6. Re:Cloes on Google to Use PC Microphones to Listen In? · · Score: 1

    Just uninstall your Audio Drivers will also work :)

  7. Drop it. on Trouble on the Debian Front? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Why doesn't he simply drop it and join Microsoft. Microsoft has all he needs!! Microsoft Windows has even more like WGA, Microsoft Office and Microsoft Visual Studio, which comes with my favorite reading, MSDN, which will help you out with your way into .NET 2.0 Final RC Beta 32 bit AND x64 versions. And you'll always have Microsoft DirectX for all your 3D needs! Even hits 4th on Google if you query "best operating system ever"!

  8. Re:Not like if it was AES on SHA-1 Collisions for Meaningful Messages · · Score: 1

    I agree they could be useless in some time but for now I'd pretty much trust MD5 and SHA-1 for login hashes. SHA-256 could be an alternative to SHA-1 in that case.

  9. Not like if it was AES on SHA-1 Collisions for Meaningful Messages · · Score: 2

    It's a hash algorithm... no big deal ? Just like it was proven possible to break MD5 for binary executables and others them (both) won't be dropped for, say, storing passwords on a database.

  10. Yeah right. on China Malware War Gets Personal · · Score: 0

    It's always about my money.

  11. Thanks, I'll pass. on AMD Announces Quad Core Tape-Out · · Score: 1

    I guess I'll skip this one to get in line for the next generation 64 or 128 cores processor.

  12. Re:Vicious Circle on CEA President Slams RIAA Audio Flag · · Score: 2

    You know, my Physics teacher started his progressive rock band and produced an independent project. http://meson-pi.com/

  13. Re:hmmm, some generic info about CEO Dell's home P on Dell Reflects on 25 Years of PCs · · Score: 1

    ..we flew to the Moon and back using a computer with 32kb of RAM.

    No, you made a movie about how would be moon and told everybody in the planet it was true. And they belived.

  14. High-end hardware on Windows Vista and the Future of Hardware · · Score: 1

    So from now on we'll have to use Server OS to get decent performance with older hardware? I've used Windows Server here at home instead of XP's because of all that crap with everything just being done to be "cute" no matter what it is a resource hog (Ever heard/seen Windows Blinds, StyleXP or Talisman shell?). Would it be that hard to write an OS that doesn't look like Barbie's place? Now that 3D view of windows, how is that usefull? I thought there was a button to show the desktop so you could pick which window you want to look...

  15. Re:Would they tell anyway? on Vista Hacking Challenge Answered · · Score: 1

    Yes, now that you said what's being said by everybody again and again to gain, would you have anything else (think instresting) to share?

  16. Big Earthquake on Scientists Measure Gravity Change From Earthquake · · Score: 1

    As long as it doesn't take California away so I can keep watching The O.C. it could blow whole north america away.

  17. They saw it coming! on RSS and Web Feeds a Risk? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    If I can remote execute code, I can remote execute malicious code. Nothing new please move along

  18. Re:McKays on 'Life on Mars' Meteorite Rejected After 10 Years · · Score: 1

    Actually it's been reported him to be spotted somewhere in the North America.

  19. Title on Power, Water and Refrigeration in One Box · · Score: 3, Funny

    When I first looked at the title I thought it was about Watercooled machines (or xboxes)

  20. So they should also.. on RIAA Goes after LimeWire · · Score: 1

    Go after Microsoft, eBay, Yahoo!, Google, because the formers wrote/own, respectively, MSN Messenger, Skype, Yahoo! Instant Messenger, GTalk, which due to it's ability to send file without doing a prior check if both sides (a) own the copyright for the file. (b) can, legally read the file contents and do whatever. They should sue Microsoft twice as they wrote Microsoft Windows(R), which allow such kind of file to exist in the hard drive and be easly swapped with unknown people

  21. Re:I believe in Evolution and God on Slashback: New E3, Archimedes Webcast, Dell Wildfires · · Score: 2, Funny

    I think God rather play in turns just like Civilization.

  22. Maybe.. on Oracle 'Losing Patience' with XenSource, VMware · · Score: 1

    Maybe they should do business with MycroS0ft instead !

  23. Re:I guess only one thing can describe ... on One Laptop Per Child Gets 4 Million Laptop Order · · Score: 1

    I know what it's being said here, which is that the laptops will be just cheap computers to put in public school, it's not like a laptop giveaway.

  24. Re:Zango's underhanded marketing on Zango Caught in Lies About MySpace? · · Score: 1

    The last time, incidentally, was when I was searching Wikipedia. I came across this revision of a Wikipedia article on Zango Messenger, a spyware laden IM service made by Zango.

    And I remeber reading something as that IM being a Miranda IM clone, with the copyrights removed.

    It might be me but I haven't figured HOW does the URL tag work yet ;(
