  1. Re:There is no "Open Office" equivalent for 3d on The State of Open Source 3D Modeling · · Score: 1

    Well there's also G-Max for those that model for a hobby. The gaming community has been using it for years.

    There are also student version of those software packages that cost considerably less but offer the same general work flow.

  3. Same massive error found in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. on Vista Eating Battery Life · · Score: 1

    The same massive error is also found in the hit video game S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

    It seems that even with the latest patch of the game and with the best video card running this persistent error of programming drains laptop battery life like there's no tomorrow.

  4. fun facts about Disney copyright on The Unauthorized State-Owned Chinese Disneyland · · Score: 1

    A Fun fact is that Mickey and a lot of Disney characters are not Copyright, they are Trademarks, which is like copyright on crack.

    Basically this means that the character's will be the legal property of Disney until the sun consumes the earth. Possibly even later.

  5. Re:"Malicious" on Why Are Students Liable for School Insecurity? · · Score: 1

    There's a difference between a school and a Government. You are free to do what you want on your own computer, but school's PCs do not belong to the students, they are the property of the school. If the schools want to make rules for the use of their equipment then they should be free to do so.

  6. Re:from the My Green Apple website: on Jobs Responds to Greenpeace FUD · · Score: 1

    In the case of things like batteries, there are already many programs that deal with proper disposal and recycling of them.

    As a manufacturer of a something that is dangerous to the environment (eg. batteries and plastics) you have a moral obligation to provide a program that will collect and dispose/reuse such products but the responsibility of using such services is, of course, up to the consumer.

    Those are sold out like a month in advance!

    Speaking of which, I plan to see just that this week: Evil Dead in true 3D

  9. Re:Non-science Slashdot editors at night on Cancer Fighting Drug Found in Dirt · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I don't become excited about topics with "cure for cancer found" in the title. There seems to be a new one of these each week.

    Truthfully I use to be worried about hem actually finding a cure. That'd be the end of my current job, but thankfully it's always a "treatment" which is a nice way of saying "we're going to keep e'm on this drug for the rest of their lives!".

  10. Re:What is going to happen...? on 250,000 PS3s Folding@Home · · Score: 1

    the plan
    Well it's nothing final, but there is talk of it, and it seems to be a logical step.

  11. Re:And this is how... on Encouraging Students to Drop Mathematics · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Totally. My office has seen a 50% increase of Chinese workers and they're proving to be a lot more efficient and competent then a lot of the Canadian born employees we've had in the past 5 years. There is very little that Americans and Canadians can do to compete, aside from having the government restrict foreign workers and oh yeah! Maybe they can learn stuff at school for a change! But the later is not as likely.

  12. Re:What is going to happen...? on 250,000 PS3s Folding@Home · · Score: 1

    Simple answer: Sony needs to offer folding as a service and send rebates back to PS3 owners. Then, not only will the PS3 be affordable, but it will also be a profit for it's owners.
