  1. Re:Pffft. This is easy. on Thou Shalt Not View The Super Bowl on a 56" Screen · · Score: 1

    Don't you have wine with your sacrament over there? No idea weather holding the ceremony during half time will be sufficient to be qualified...

  2. Re:I wonder if time is dilated there... on Black Hole Found Inside Globular Cluster · · Score: 1

    Wouldn't that at least depend on the velocity sucking my solar system into the hole (in relation to that of the observer - you get it) ?

  3. Re:Can you save a sinking ship on Last Chance to Help Free Ryzom · · Score: 1

    The market has spoken, this game was not worthy. Netscape (the product) was killed on the marked but mozilla/firefox (the phenomenon) reincarnated. The definition of being worthy is not necessary the same in business and culture.

    Just because it becomes open source, etc, doesn't mean that this is a good. True. Not necessary. But it is a possibility the community shouldn't miss.

    Don't think that narrow minded. This is not only about same kiddies and their game. The future of the web is 3D. It just cannot be bad to have a descent real time 3d engine available in the community. This is why I pledged to donate. There is no risk - I'll only pay if they win.

    That said I wouldn't expect any ryzom successor to take over the world tomorrow. For mozilla it took so many years to arrive where it is today.

  4. Re:Would've been nice if... on FSF Launches "BadVista" Campaign · · Score: 5, Informative

    I stopped buying music years ago when I had a really busy time studying. After that period of withdrawal I heard about some free music labels, got curious and never looked back again.
    In the beginning I was impressed by programs that automatically download free music, based on ratings you give.
    Today I have a quite large collection of free tracks and albums. From time to time I visit, some, of those. All that is 100% annoyance-, tool-, ad-, DRM- and RIAA-free.
