  1. Re:Adobe Digital Editions on Ask Slashdot: What Are Your Greatest Successes and Weaknesses With Wine (Software)? · · Score: 1

    "It's not easy" is a huge understatement.

  2. Re:Short Evaluation on Ask Slashdot: E-ink Reader For Academic Papers? · · Score: 1

    That sounds useful ... I hope you don't mind, but I reposted this as an answer to a relevant question on the new EBooks StackExchange site. Might come in handy there. http://ebooks.stackexchange.co...

  3. Re:Alastair Reynolds on Ask Slashdot: Most Underappreciated Sci-Fi Writer? · · Score: 1

    I thought Absolution Gap was his best, but I read it (accidentally) before reading Revelation Space and Redemption Ark. Yeah, I don't know how that happened. I kept thinking, wow, he expects so much from his readers. But when I went back and read the predecessors, I didn't like them as much. And I think Scorpio is by far his best character.

  4. Re:Salon: No cookie for you on Where To Find Opus On Sunday · · Score: 1

    Salon's whole business model is based on either 1) seeing an advertisement, and getting a cookie to be able to see their content for a set amount of time (the cookie's lifetime) or 2) having a paid account, and having a cookie to prove it.

    I have a paid account. They have fine stories.
