Linux Hits the Road
An anonymous reader writes "Vicroads does regular surveys of the roads in Victoria, Australia, to determine where they need to be patched or otherwise repaired. It used to be done in a vehicle travelling at 20 kph: slow, tedious, and hazardous to the traffic around it. Now, thanks to Linux, it's being done at speeds of 80 to 100 kph. The Melbourne Age has the details. Short version: the cost has fallen from $1.2 million Australian to $850,000. Not bad..."

Let's map them potholes. 'nuff said.

It's called a web bug, something the editors have hypocritically been against while using them at the same time.
Did slash get an upgrade in the past month or so? Because, if you set your preferences to Flat mode (any other mode sucks dick, so I always use flat), and if you get that Slashdot overload 50 comment limit, if you hit the 2nd page, 3rd page, etc. link you get the SAME cocksucking page as the 1st page. You have to move several pages beyond before the page change -- and then several articles are missing. I've seen the next page links go up to like 20 before. This is a new bug.
FIX IT, YOU STUPID FUCKERS!
Remind me not to catch a lift home with you!
I tend to view Linux's future in binary terms. It is either 0 (a failure) or 1 (a success). I think the failure will come if Linus ever adopts ReiserFS code in the kernel. The success will most likely come if the FSF updates the GPL to include a section where corporations can patent GPL'ed software. Patenting is what sparks innovation. We have a lot in OSS right now, but we'll have more if companies like Red Hat can patent large portions of their distribution.
5) The constant pressure of the bike seat on your taint will eventually make you impotent, thus improving the quality of the gene pool.
You breathe more fumes riding a bike as the cars pass you than you do while inside a car thanks to air filters.
It's the English language, which automatically makes the English right. The rest of you are just borrowing. So if the english say it's "colour" then that's the way it's spelt in English.
Hell, if they said you spelt it "zxhjshfdikd" then they'd still be right.
I love bicycling but...
It does not stress your joints so even if you're overweight you can start cycling straight away.
But if you're overweight, I can guarantee you that it WILL stress your ass in a bad way.
breathing the fumes and sweating your ass off.
No, it's better to be stuck behind a diesel powered car (no emissions checks in the US) in 100 degree weather. You'll be worse than sweating your ass off as you breath those fumes!
When I used to work in a warehouse, it was just fine to ride my bike to work, since I would be hot and sweaty all day long.
But, now, I have to dress in nice clothes, and preferably not stink all day. Most places I have worked do not have showers and changing rooms. For places like that, it's just not practical to ride my bike to work.
And that's not counting how much rain we get here. So I'm either wet from sweat, or wet from rain. Either way, it would only work if I could change clothes after getting to work.
Plus, here in Portland, while we're rated as one of the best cities to bike in, I have to disagree. We might have the most miles of bike lanes, but they are not well done. One minute your in a bike lane, and the next, you're on a busy 4 lane road with no shoulder, or you've been forced to cut across traffic. Or if you want to go any long distance, you have to cut back and forth between main streets, nearly doubling your trip. If we're the bike-friendliest, I'd hate to see un-friendly!
It really takes a change in culture - to include things like better bike lanes, showers and changing rooms, more places to lock up a bike, etc, before we'll see any mass migrations to bike commuting here.
I agree.
I guess the Netherlands and Denmark are the only truly bike-friendly countries in Europe. Amsterdam, in fact, is the only city where I got the impression that cars are actually at a disadvantage.
BOO! TERRO
not all the time. cyphering how many babies it costs for a barroll of crudeness, we've just cut back, a lot.
as for linus, the whoreabull Godless thieving/murdering georgewellian fuddites may have met their match there. you know what happens to the good guys, right?
we've saved 1000's, if not 10's of 1000's of $, buy not buying into the payper liesense hostage ransom stock markup execrable such as is distributed buy the felonious kingdumb & IT's naykid furor et AL.
no matter. the task is planet/population rescue. the lights are coming up. we're in crisis mode. you can help.
consult with/trust in yOUR creator. more breathing. vote with yOUR wallet. seek others of non-aggressive intentions/behaviours. that's the spirit, moving you.
pay no heed to the greed/fear based walking dead.
each harmed innocent carries with it a bad toll. it will be repaid by you/us. the Godless felons will not be available to make reparations.
pay attention. that's definitely affordable, plus you might develop skills which could prevent you from being misled any further by phonIE ?pr? ?firm? generated misinformation.
good work so far. there's still much to be done. see you there.
