  1. Re:No more HollyWood films in ... on Brazil Considering Legalizing File Sharing · · Score: 1

    What astonishes me is how this country can export such crap as their cars....

    Actually, brazilian population is overweight and children starving is much more an urban legend spread by the now governing party (the Partido dos Trabalhadores) than a fact. http://www.abeso.org.br/lenoticia/555/metade-dos-brasileiros-adultos-tem-sobrepeso.shtml

    Hey, that's less than you pay for the virgin dvds you record the pirated downloads and keep making dust in your basement. Hell, for that price I will watch star trek: the next generation again, with no commercials and it will be about half the price of the dvds I have no space in my apartment for...

  5. Re:Facebook dead on Apple Announces New iPods, iTunes 10, Social Network, AppleTV · · Score: 1

    I thought that but not for facebook - because it does not have farmville - yet.

    But there are other social networks that yes, might be in problems. One is Last.FM, because its social part is EXACTLY what Ping is. The only difference between last.fm and ping is that in DE, UK and US, you can listen to music on it for free. For the rest of the world, and for those who pirates songs, ping is free while last.fm is not.

    Another one in danger is spotify - more or less the same, but with different country options. So where spotify is not free, ping has an advantage.

    Although hard to believe, MySpace is huge for indie bands. Nothing related to the big recording companies backing iTunes can compete with that, so it is more or less safe. They must thank god everyday for not being bought by yahoo.

    Another one that seems dead already is RDIO.

  8. Firing imagination on The Misleading World of Atari 2600 Box Art · · Score: 1

    Like any book cover... One of the reasons people buy books is because it's attractive on the shelf. And no one would expect the graphics in a, say, Asimov's book to be like any of those covers.

    Hey, come on, this zero-fatality stuff was certainly made up by their marketing people, not the engineers. As if anyone reading /. wouldn't know that.

    Just go to the streets and talk to the homeless, and you will see how many of them are veterans. Or just keep yourself in the comfort of your basement and see this guy's work: http://www.fotolog.com/mashuga/75578872

    Actually, Switzerland has four. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switzerland

    Same happens with Spain, which is quite small and has five. Inside Spain, the nation of Catalonia itself has two: Catalan (which is also spoken in Valencia, Balear Islands, the country of Andorra, south of France and in Sardinia, Italy) and Aranese, spoken by about 7000 inhabitants of a very isolated valley. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spain

    Those languages are not diminishing, but actually, being more widely used, in spite of hundreds of years of spanish domination in those places.
