  1. Re:You have to. on Employee Monitoring · · Score: 1

    That's also going too far. It's one thing what an employee does on company time and with company's resources, but they do on their own time - as long as it's legal shouldn't be a company's business.

    If it is public anyone can watch you. As long as they don't interfere on your free time activities, it should be fine.

  2. If Monologue == Dialogue ??? on Why Overheard Cell Phone Chats Are Annoying · · Score: 1

    In some conversations like between an employee and a manager, or a wife and husband, one half of the dialogue is the complete dialogue. IOW monologue == dialogue. So do they annoy less?

  3. Tough article ? Print to save enrgy on Paper Manufacturer Launches "Print More" Campaign · · Score: 1

    I save energy by reading printed copies of tough to understand/digest articles, rather than running my computer till I understand what it is. NO NO I didn't print this article, as this is very light

  4. Statistics can be (ab)used to lie on Why Linux Is Not Attracting Young Developers · · Score: 2, Informative

    It is just that who ever has got into Linux Kernel Development never quit. I am a Linux Kernel developer since 2.6.25 or roughly for the past 2+ years. I see plenty of new young people getting involved/addicted with Linux. The point is those who are aging are not retiring which isn't a bad thing at all.

  5. Oh shit.. this is SWF not Flash memory on AdvancED Flash On Devices · · Score: 1

    I read half of the review thinking this is about flash memory.

  6. c# / monotouch? on Steve Jobs Weighs In On iPhone Programming Language Mandate · · Score: 1

    Saw some post from Miguel that monotouch can be used to develop apps for iPhone. So what happens to that now?

    Let us have this discussion in facebook.. why waste slashdot resource for this ;-)

  10. Has he patented it? on Tridgell Recommends Reading Software Patents · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Has Tridgell patented, the techniques to defend patent attacks? Or is this going to be a prior-art for a later patent?

  11. Ubuntu is not a democracy.. but.. devel Vs users on Open Source Is Not a Democracy · · Score: 0

    Ubuntu is not democracy.. but open-source is In open-source any group who contribute software engineering can fork the project.. so it is perfect democracy. But ubuntu needs money from shuttleworth.. so he has an upper-hand Also ubuntu users cannot demand something from ubuntu developers... Only developers can vote in open-source

  12. openSUSE has it on Ars Analysis Calls Windows 7 Memory Usage Claims "Scaremongering" · · Score: 0

    This sucks in Linux as well.
    This is not /sys/block/sda/queue/read_ahead_kb
    See `rpm -qi preload` on openSUSE 11.2
    It tries to read ahead specific files and stuff intelligently

  13. WoP on Fujitsu Readies Lawsuit Over "iPad" Name · · Score: 0

    And there is World of Padman http://www.worldofpadman.com/

    How do they make money?

  15. Re:Not good enough on Live Intel WiDi Demonstration At CES 2010 · · Score: 0

    And the lag makes it impossible to use it to connect to larger display as a Computer monitor. No chance of gaming with this technology. If you had seen the movie "Next", this technology would help you to experience something called, "previous"

  16. Moblin? on Nokia Leaks Phone With Full GNU/Linux Distribution · · Score: 0

    Moblin competitor? Intel versus Nokia?

  18. Re:Wood to Gold on Comets Probably Seeded Earth's Nitrogen Atmosphere · · Score: 0

    The point here is not manufacturing for profit.. but how it could have occurred naturally and hence we have them on our planet

  19. Re:Wood to Gold on Comets Probably Seeded Earth's Nitrogen Atmosphere · · Score: 0

    Yes, it is difficult to create life,gold,etc... but life,gold,etc.. exists ;-) So do you mean to say gold should have come from some meteor? And if so, where did that come from?

    Just let it play and record your desktop at 1080p resolution ;-)

  23. A new fancy bugzilla on A Curmudgeonly Look At Google Wave · · Score: 1

    The wave demo reminds me bugzilla very much. Wave = next version of bugzilla.

  24. public good on Should Enterprise IT Give Back To Open Source? · · Score: 1

    Any one who just uses it is fine, as long as they dont trouble the developers. But if they have some fixes/improvements in-house but dont give it back, its very bad.

  25. Re:Open Transport, Part II on Have Sockets Run Their Course? · · Score: 1

    Apple failed?! Is it because apple was unable to make curvy shiny cases/UI for their API? If they can, they can sell any crap!
