  1. Re:EFF / FSF Channel? on Google Launches Private Android App Stores · · Score: 1

    Mod parent up!

  2. Parking on A Day in Your Life, Fifteen Years From Now · · Score: 1

    The car drops you off in front of work and drives itself to the parking, rather than making you walk from the parking to the work entrance

  3. Re:65% improvement but still more than half a minu on Early Speed Tests For Windows 8 · · Score: 1

    More than half a minute including BIOS boot, which according to the article is 15 seconds.

  4. lucky on Fukushima Meltdown Might Have Come With Earthquake, Not Tsunami · · Score: 1

    The earthquake epicenter was about 125 km from the plant.
    Taking into account that there are more than 50 reactors in Japan, it would be quite probable for the impact to be much worse.

  5. Re:Phenomenal browser on Opera 10 Benchmarked and Evaluated · · Score: 1

    It definitely feels faster than the other major browsers

    I have the opposite experience: It feels slow for me.

    I tried Opera just yesterday after the launch the beta. And reaction time for scrolling the window feels slow, at least considerably slower than FF.

    When I scroll the slashdot page up/down in Firefox it feels instantaneous. In Opera I first see the scrollbar move then there is a half-a-second delay before the rest of the page moves.

    Does anyone else notice similar behavior?

  6. Re:Can you get Bluetooth mice with only 1 button? on Bluetooth Versus Wireless Mice · · Score: 2, Informative

    @ being swapped with " is the difference between en_US and en_GB

  7. Re:Summary on BeOS Successor Haiku Keeps the Faith · · Score: 1

    Only on /. this can be modded insightful :)

  8. How can you be sure who was it? on iTunes DRM-Free Files Contain Personal Info · · Score: 1

    Some people may share files that say:

    Purchased by 'Steve Jobs sjobs@apple.com' :)

  9. Shockwave Director on Adobe Releases Preview of 64-bit Flash For Linux · · Score: 1

    What about whole Shockwave?

    The flash player is a much simplified subset of the whole shockwave, so for pages that require application/x-director there is still nothing for Linux, not even 32bit...

  10. Re:Why in the world on Concerns About ACTA In EU, Canada · · Score: 1

    Most of the population doesn't know what its about. The only thing they know is that US things were good at some point, so this is a good enough motivation for any new laws. This is the kind of world we live in...

  11. Re:US only on MTV Launches Music Video Site · · Score: 1

    It works in the Netherlands. I tried random 20, including the top 5.

  12. Re:Runs on FF/Safair? on Microsoft Unveils Browser-Based Office Apps · · Score: 1

    Also, it'll also run in Firefox on Linux via moonlight.

    The OP says they are extensions to locally installed apps. I don't think M$ will provide linux apps...

  13. Re:Pull instead of push? on Gmail, SPF, and Broken Email Forwarding? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    ... IMAP, which google now also supports.

    Gmail claims to support IMAP, but if you try really using it, its awful.

    Eg deleting an email from my mail client inbox only removes it from the Inbox label, it still stays in AllMail. And deleting from AllMail is impossible, the email reappears in thunderbird in a minute or two. Deleting attachments doesnt work. Etc.

    I understand they want to keep my data as long as possible and also that they want to make IMAP work with their Labels, but I don't care I just want an IMAP compliant email account...

  14. Re: There is no al qaeda on Al-Qaeda's Growing Online Offensive · · Score: 1

    It doesn't exist, but from a point of view of any terrorist it sounds like a cool idea to join forces with others, and you can do that by calling yourself AQ... So in some sense it is the US creating it not only as a faceless enemy but also as a physical treat.

  15. Re:Quoth bash.org: --- nice, really nice on Porn Spammers Get Five Years Each · · Score: 1
    Do you have any idea the kind of computing resources individuals and companies alike have had to dedicate to spam filtering? How much is that costing the worldwide economy annually...

    How much time individuals and companies alike dedicate to watching commercials on tv, in journals and on billboards?

    For me these are as annoying as spam. And how much does this cost the worldwide economy?

  16. Re:Safari using WINE on Safari on Windows, Leopard Debut at WWDC · · Score: 1

    New safari has the editable IFrame, which is required for all wysywyg web editors, that konqueror (at least latest kde 3 version) doesn't.

  17. Real life tasks on AMD's Barcelona to Outpace Intel by 50% · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It would be more relevant to know how does it perform real life tasks, eg kernel compilation time comparison...
