  1. Re:8 bit audio? on Microtouch: 8-bit Open Source Media Device · · Score: 1

    *facepalm* I was talking about what the person I was responding to quoted in their post. Reading comprehension ftw!

  2. Re:8 bit audio? on Microtouch: 8-bit Open Source Media Device · · Score: 3

    You apparently didn't comprehend what you posted. The 24-bit dsp is what decodes the mp3s not the 8-bit cpu.

  3. lolwut on Microtouch: 8-bit Open Source Media Device · · Score: 1

    The Microtouch is a mobile media device that aims to become an open-source alternative to the iPod Touch.

    Yeah keep dreaming.

    It may not be more efficient but it is certainly better for the ecosystem.

  5. Re:Have mobile providers have faked a sell out ? on iPhone 4S Pre-Orders Sell Out · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I've spoken to dozens of people in my office and they all say they haven't placed a pre-order and are not interested in the 4S at all.

    Wow...that's like....EVERYONE!

    Except it's not called "Apps Engine". Hell the linked article at the top says "Google App Engine Blog".

    At least we aren't bring bombarded with bitcoin stories anymore. Looks like once taco left the bitcoin shilling fell away.

    Is it even up? The site says it will "be back soon" for a while.

  9. Re:Try to get the license changed to GPL on Ask Slashdot: Spreading the Word About At-Risk Open Source Projects? · · Score: 1

    So you want a license that will scare off any.commercial company from touching it? with those terms most companies will stick to a proprietary solution instead.

  10. Re:Depends how it's been modified BSD on Ask Slashdot: Spreading the Word About At-Risk Open Source Projects? · · Score: 1

    Huh? Relicensing the code would violate the license. even with BSD only the.copyright owner can relicense it. Yes it can be integrated with.proprietary code, but that doesn't mean it's been relicensed.

  11. Re:Its not about that project - its more general on Ask Slashdot: Spreading the Word About At-Risk Open Source Projects? · · Score: 1

    That's all fine and dandy but if I don't know the projects name how will I know which request.for.help is his? As I said if help him with maintaining the project but I can't help without knowing its name. I'm offering to help here and now. If I'm going to have to wait forever for him to post his request on some other site then I'll just move on. No big loss for me.

    True but for someone interested.in helping the question asker I can't do so without the software's name.

  13. Re:what's the name? on Ask Slashdot: Spreading the Word About At-Risk Open Source Projects? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Yes there are idiots who would do that. So what? If the guy wants help he's going to have to give out the name. I'd be interested but if the guy won't say the name it'll be a bit hard to help them.

  14. what's the name? on Ask Slashdot: Spreading the Word About At-Risk Open Source Projects? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    So you want to spread the word but won't even give out the name?

  15. Re:So I guess... on HP Investigates Android TouchPads Delivered With Android · · Score: 1

    And even if they were held to it, they only have to release any patches to the kernel. Which means drivers won't get released nor any changes to Android itself. So they will almost nothing of real value.

    Yes my mom is a slut. Your point?

  17. Re:So I guess... on HP Investigates Android TouchPads Delivered With Android · · Score: 2

    To follow, unless someone can prove that they patched the kernel HP doesn't have to release jack.

    The license of Android is Apache 2.0 which has no such requirement.

    They are going to make sure to do this at night, right? It would be too hot for the probe during the day, right?

    All it takes is a simple google search to find numerous claims of Linux being impenetrable. It doesn't matter the claims are wrong, but the claims have been made by write a few people.

  24. Re:Lessons for others? on Welcome Back Kernel.org · · Score: 0

    It means there are probably quite a few rooted Linux boxes out there and the users don't realize it because they bought into hype that their computer had impenetrable security.
