  1. Re:In other news they Axe the Free Google Apps. on Google Launches Private Android App Stores · · Score: 1

    It doesn't look like this will affect individuals who just want to use Google's services, only business users.

  2. Re:Shocked. on Do You Really Need a Smart Phone? · · Score: 1

    I pay way less than $100 per month for my Android phone, and that includes unlimited voice minutes, SMS, MMS, and data. And I'm in the US. I'm on Boost Mobile paying $40 per month, which is soon to be $35 per month. I'd hardly call that expensive.

  3. Re:Another way to save money on Do You Really Need a Smart Phone? · · Score: 1

    Boost Mobile has three Android phones. They may not be top of the line, but they're a good selection. I have an Android phone on Boost and I love it.

    Nope, Debian's version of Firefox is still called "IceWeasel".

  7. Re:Wow on Ubuntu Moves Away From GNOME · · Score: 1

    That seems rather odd, considering they're mostly targeting Windows users. Bug #1 is about Microsoft.

  8. Re:Wish I ... on Opera Embraces Extensions For v.11 · · Score: 1

    Glad I wasn't the only one who thought this when reading the title...

  9. Re:The real question is- on Making Closed Software Act Like It's Open · · Score: 1

    But that's the thing. WinZip isn't freeware. Try IZarc if you want something that really is freeware.

  10. Re:OS is nothing. Apps are everything. on ARM-Powered Laptops To Increase Linux Market Share · · Score: 1

    Even so, a lot of people may expect these new netbooks to run their x86 software because it looks, acts, and feels like a small laptop.

  11. Re:That's what you get with corrupt democrats... on Chicago's Camera Network Is Everywhere · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    The second amendment is about militia members having the right to bear arms.

  12. Re:ehh on Best Developer's Laptop? · · Score: 1

    Widescreen sucks, especially for software development, where you need more vertical space, not less.

  13. Re:Macs on Large-Scale Mac Deployment? · · Score: 1

    The name "Apple Cinema Display" kinda demonstrates that all Macs are good for is watching and making movies.

  14. Re:seems reasonable on Microsoft Files "Emergency Motion" To Ship Word · · Score: 4, Informative

    Too late. Microsoft beat you to it. http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Disclosures

  15. Re:MODS on What the US Can Learn From Europe's Pollution Credit System · · Score: 1

    There is no humour in the US, just humor.

  16. Re:More the merry-er'er...er. on DisplayLink Releases LGPL USB Graphics Code · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Maybe they're starting to understand that most Linux users are just the type of people who like buying gadgets.

  17. Re:Coming soon, on Powering Restaurants WIth Deep Fried Fuel · · Score: 2, Informative

    They've used vegetable oil in their fryers for at least 10 years now. They now use a blend of soy and canola oil. http://www.ilsoy.org/soy-news/article/?sort=14&id=172

    Isn't he the guy who cleans the bathroom at McDonald's?

  19. Re:Not a problem on Shifting Apps To ARM Chips Could Save Laptop Batteries · · Score: 1

    But as mentioned above, the vast majority of Windows-only programs are proprietary. Most of the open-source Windows applications are natively available on Linux already. So this won't work for most Wine users.

  20. Re:"Oh Jeez, not this shit again!" on FSF Files Suit Against Cisco For GPL Violations · · Score: 1

    Can't we just find an old subthread on the subject and link to that instead? :)

    But Slashdot doesn't allow us to post anything in old discussions!

    I think the article was supposed to scare people. I know some people on /. have a tendency to "stretch the truth" to scare people.
