  1. To all left wondering what "between 1:30 and 4:30 p.m. ET" means: it's 1830-2130 GMT

    Gigster will still own the code to the app it designs for you, and it "leases" the software to you

    No, thank you.

    Totally agree. And let's get back to a client like eMule http://www.emule-project.net/ using KAD protocol.

    Something like KAD?

  10. Re:This won't fly. on Apple Hints At Future Liquid-Cooled Laptops · · Score: 1

    Why not put the components upside down? The liquid cooler would run under and leak in the flor - it could work, at least in desktops.

    Ok, it IS funny, but it's TRUE also :)

  15. Re:Why did this take so long to do? on Tolkien Trust Sues New Line, May Kill "Hobbit" · · Score: 1

    They said that they were forbidden to make an auditory in the last TWO movies. The last one is from december/2003. That makes about 4 years of lawyers talk only. A short time... to lawyers.

  16. Re:Do they own the movie rights? on Tolkien Trust Sues New Line, May Kill "Hobbit" · · Score: 1

    J. R. R. Tolkien sold the rights for a sum of money AND a percentual from the works derived from the license. The Tolkien Estate ("the family") requires now that percentual.

    Gimli.... no Gimli in The Hobbit. At least in the book. ... no, they won't do that. Nor Legolas.

  18. Re:give them a few months to make it silently upgr on Internet Explorer Drops WGA Requirement · · Score: 1

    And if people stopped worshipping Redmond they'd actually realize that *they* have the power to choose, not the producers.
    More important than the power to choose is (sadly) the power to "not change". People won't change until forced to. See the Firefox case, why it's gaining ground? Microsoft almost forced people change from IE

    "Power to Choose" less important than "Power To Not Change" (in general, for most peopleo)

    The products not-Microsft must be much better to "force a change" and much more vendors must sell computers with a (very working and cheaper then a Windows option) Linux distro.
