  1. Re:Where do I sign up? on Every Day Is Goof-Off-At-Work Day At the US Patent and Trademark Office · · Score: 0

    Bravo sir! I'm glad Slashdot isn't dominated by socialists yet, because in Reddid it's really hard to read anything related to politics without getting angry.

  2. Re:Dead on GNOME Shell Extensions Are Live · · Score: 0

    I'm sick of gnome 3. Gnome 2 was so damn good, I like it a lot, and now I just hate this Gnome 3 so much! I'm installing kde 4 right now. Let's see if it's better than this crap.

  3. Vim is great! on Vim Turns 20 · · Score: 1

    I love using it. In my company, vim is mandatory for programmers. It certainly boosts a lot my productivity, and with the help of ctags, minibufexplorer, grep, vcscommand plugins, it's even better. Beats any other fancy GUI text editor.

  4. Re:I like gvim, except... on Vim Turns 20 · · Score: 1

    My main beef with it (solved by recompiling) is with fonts. I like the old fashioned font called "fixed". It derives from the ancient, non-scalable standard bitmapped font which came with X. It also happens to be very readable and to my eyes looks much sharper than the anti-aliased fonts.

    That's the main reason that I use vim from xterm.

  5. Re:can't find Ossama to the B Laden! on US Launches Largest Spy Satellite Ever · · Score: 1

    haha perfect song for this

  6. Re:I'm sure... on GIMP Resynth vs. Photoshop Content Aware · · Score: 1

    Well, I've never used Arch Linux but on Debian and probably on Ubuntu it's very simple: sudo apt-get install gimp gimp-resynthesizer.

  7. Re:sco still alive? on SCO Asks Judge To Give Them the Unix Copyright · · Score: 1

    Maybe they should try "kill" their parent process first.

  8. Re:So they should on Apple Bans Jailbreakers From the App Store · · Score: 1

    I think you don't get it. The iPhone without jail-breaking is just a useless brick. With jail-breaking you can install ssh, install mplayer (more video formats supported), and many other useful cydia apps.

  9. Re:Microsoft acting responsibly? on Microsoft Takes Responsibility For GPL Violation · · Score: 5, Insightful
  10. Yeah and... on Taking Showers Can Be Harmful To Your Health · · Score: 1

    ...not taking shower can be harmful to your social life ;)

  11. talks at fisl on Pirate Bay Announces Sale to Swedish Company For $7.8 Million · · Score: 1

    Peter Sunde gave two presentations last week here in Brazil. On the first one he talked about the history of TPB, and on the second one he talked about TPB services. In the end of one of his presentations (I don't remember witch one) he was asked, if someone offer to buy TPB for some money, would they sell it? His answer was that they would do what's the best to TPB (He said some more things also).

    I don't know why but I felt he was hiding something.

  12. Re:Linux on the desktop 2009 ! on Linux Gaining Strength In Downturn · · Score: 1

    After this I believe.

  13. Re:Bah, subtlety: on (Useful) Stupid Unix Tricks? · · Score: 1

    Damn, that was fast! I shouldn't have underestimated that thing! =D

  14. Re:Vote with your feet and check out OpenNIC on ICANN Releases Draft For New TLDs · · Score: 1

    I tried that and it's pretty amazing! There are too many dead links though.
    Why paying 185k for a TLD, if you can get one for free ;)

  15. Re:Yawn on Ubuntu Is Hyper-Active At OSCON · · Score: 1

    I have a HP laptop, and everything is working just fine. I had some trouble to make wireless work since it was a broadcom, but with ndiswrapper it's working now. Actually I don't know what could not work. Did you tried the last version?

  16. There are no best or worst way on Best and Worst Coding Standards? · · Score: 1

    Well, in my opinion there are no best or worst way, what exist are the ways you like and the ways you don't like.
    For example, I like codes this way:

    if(expression){

    }else{

    }

    Anyway, thats my 2 cents.

    OMG, I used to play that game a lot on my 486! Tried it on wine, and worked perfectly. ;)

  19. Re:Mozilla.com Slashdotted? on Firefox Download Day To Start At 1 p.m. EST · · Score: 1

    I wanted to help them with their download record, but http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ doesn't seems to work. Maybe I'll try later.

  20. Slashdotted? on Wine 1.0 — Uncorked After 15 Years · · Score: 1

    it's just me or wine http://winehq.org/ and firefox http://www.firefox.com/ websites aren't loading??
    Strange coincidence :)

  21. Re:Slooow! on Ubuntu 8.04 Released · · Score: 1

    It took me about 1 minute to download it here. Im glad I could ssh to my work`s pc from home ;)

  22. Re:Important lines from TFA on Gartner Analysts Warn That Windows Is Collapsing · · Score: 1

    I aways thought people was exaggerating about how bad vista was, but last week I got one hp laptop loaded with vista, and I can tell, vista is big piece of shit. It takes around 5 minutes to boot, 20 GB of hd space, and more 10 GB to recovery partition. I just installed ubuntu 8.10b on it and now it's really fast and useful.
