  1. Was it on purpose?! by 53cur!ty · · Score: 1 · on Is Dell Just Testing the Market?
    "While the choice of Linspire as a desktop may leave a few of you underwhelmed..."

    Perhaps Dell wants a Linux distro no one wants so they can report back to the public about how Linux failed because it wasn't ready for the desktop? How much would M$ pay for that to happen with a household name like Dell?

    Hmmmmm?!

  2. Don't be stupid by 53cur!ty · · Score: 4, Interesting · on palmOne Releases Two New Zire Handhelds
    Palm comes out with a new unit every other week! They stop supporting/selling at the same rate to insure sales on the new units.

    Don;t be stupid, pick one and wait for it to show up in Palm's outlet store. At least then you are not paying the over inflated price.

    Yes more and more 4-profit's seem to be using GNU work product without proper acknowledgements.

    Perhaps sourceforge can pay the FBI to run a few raids for the GNU violators!!

    Does the Military really believe that we believe that they are JUST developing this technology?!

    Come on space has already been militerized and lasers have been around for a while. Remember the U-2 spy plane, we found out about that almost 50 years after it was put into service!

    Just because we can, doesn't mean we should. Isn't that what we learned from the atomic bomb?

    Yeah, yeah, there is a big difference, but in the extremes lies the truth.

  8. Yet another by 53cur!ty · · Score: 1, Insightful · on C, Objective-C, C++... D! Future Or failure?
    Add another language to the list! While D does seem to offer some great features the key is adoptability. The question is , will the programming community at large use D for production systems and future development.

    I don't see D having the kind of successful adoption that Perl had/has or Python (to name two) yet neither of these were overnight successes. Only time and programmer support will tell if it has D chance!

  13. Re:Home enforcement? by 53cur!ty · · Score: 1 · on Florida Ponders Communication Tax on LANs

    I disagree, it's all about the money. Every year if you look closely you will see they tax more and more things, never, ever do they untax something. We are the cash cow for the goverment of our own creation, deal with it or change it.

    Personally I think people like the current system becasue it gives them something to bitch about. So my guess is there will be a lot of whining while people pay the tax.
