  1. Re:yep... on Ten Things Mobile Phones Will Make Obsolete · · Score: 1

    Actually I think mobiles will become obsolete in the future and be replaced by mobile-watches you carry on your arm.... I have one already...

  2. Re:ok on Wait For Windows 7 SP1, Support Firm Warns Users · · Score: 1

    Hmmm.. my only issue with Windows 7 is failure to hibernate. I'm sure that should be fixed soon..

  3. Re:Little Brother for everyone! on MS's "Lifeblogging" Camera Enters Mass Production · · Score: 1

    Cars will be required to have this by 2012 actually in the EU...
    it helps road safety!

  4. igoogle is a Godsend! on GMail Experiences Serious Outage · · Score: 1

    I just logged on igoogle, read my gmail without a problem...

  5. Re:Batman and Porky Pig on Disney Buys Marvel For $4B · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I think we will end up getting another Superman now by Disney/Marvel though instead of WB...

  6. Re:They just can't leave well alone on Battlestar Galactica Feature Film Confirmed · · Score: 1

    AS FAR AS I'M AWARE In the new movie Starbuck is going to be a guy again so Kristen Stewart wouldn't play him for sure :)

  7. Re:Bede bede bede on Battlestar Galactica Feature Film Confirmed · · Score: 1

    Well I will wait to see what this will amount too before judging it myself.
    I'm looking forward to it though and hope the original series movie will be very good and move on the original series storyline (finally!).

  8. Re:This isn't sensationalist, it's the truth on Leaving the GPL Behind · · Score: 1

    GPL people don't want others to make money off their code.

    GPL people can license their code to others, for money if needed. Nothing prohibts the author, well if there are many authors its going to be difficult, I can see that. But if it's just one, there's no big deal and it's easy to do.

  9. Re:This isn't sensationalist, it's the truth on Leaving the GPL Behind · · Score: 1

    You can issue your code under more than one license. A GPL License and a special license to others without the gpl restrictions. nobody prohibits this in fact.

  10. Re:Yup, beware of fascists... they are over THERE! on Leaving the GPL Behind · · Score: 1

    In fact nobody forces the developer to use the GPL. If I'm writing code I'm free to choose whatever license suits me.

  11. Re:Have you looked at PrinceXML? on HTML Tags For Academic Printing? · · Score: 1

    I use it and I'm quite happy with PrinceXML...

  12. Re:God dammit on Images of Apollo Landing Sites Soon Available · · Score: 1

    Best thing for them to do is to go there themselves, I guess..

    then they can check out the scenery...

  13. Re:I wouldn't be so quick to that. on Ray Bradbury Loves Libraries, Hates the Internet · · Score: 1

    Accurate but obsolete. You'll be getting something ten years old. To get something decent either use the Internet or purchase a new book....

  14. Re:Wikipedia is good, but not there yet. on Ray Bradbury Loves Libraries, Hates the Internet · · Score: 1

    You wouldn't find K&R C in a library where I live..

    Only very old books, obsolete books on computing at any rate...

    To make things worse, bring in a book late and you end up paying lots of money to the library, so much that it's more worth buying the book rather than going to the library. That's why I hate libraries...

  15. Re:Problem partially solved! on Embedding Video In a Site For iPhone/iPod? · · Score: 1

    SWFObject should handle all of this without problems. Indeed there's even a book for the iphone which mentions this, I found by googling... So try it.

    This is the link for swfobject:
    http://code.google.com/p/swfobject

  16. SWFObject on Embedding Video In a Site For iPhone/iPod? · · Score: 2, Informative

    You should be using SWFObject.. it should work with your iphone if it is the latest updated version.

  17. the TARDIS had one! on Illusion Cloak Makes One Object Look Like Another · · Score: 1

    The Doctor's TARDIS had one of those illusion cloak devices - a chamelion device - but it got stuck in the shape of a Police box!

  18. Re:Yes on Is a $72.5m Opening Weekend Enough For Star Trek? · · Score: 1

    I'm a Wolverine fan but I really liked the movie.

    The characterisation was right, for the Wolverine from the X-Men movies. That's the right one. The Wolverine in the comics is a different one (the 616 universe one, at any rate).

  19. Re:Frankly, I was disappointed on Reviews: Star Trek · · Score: 1

    There was no Bristow. You meant Captain Braxton I guess.
    But I don't recall any such red matter ball or zombie city..

  20. Re:Singularity? on Reviews: Star Trek · · Score: 1

    I suspect parent post was referring to the Singularity in the Star Trek Countdown comics..
    Eric Bana and Nimoy end up within it at the end of the comic prequel...

  21. Re:You Get What You Pay For on OpenOffice 3.1 Released · · Score: 1

    you're probably just a troll but you were using a beta version (the bug is in the beta).

    Switch to GO OO - it's super stable and doesn't have that bug from my experience...

  22. Re:Peak Oil on Energy Secretary Chu Endorses "Clean Coal" · · Score: 1

    Italy is reearching the subject too.. I think other countries should do so too..

  23. Re:XP support on XP Reprieve, Downgrade May Continue After Win7 · · Score: 1

    I bought new hardware, found out it's not supported by xp 64 bit or vista 64 bit, just old XP 32 bit...
    it was a usb network card thingie..

    So "soon" isn't really right now or even soon..

  24. Re:Off by a week? on Scientist Forced To Remove Earthquake Prediction · · Score: 1

    Apparently he predicted a number of earthquakes in the past ten years, according to Striscia La Notizia...

  25. Re:Now RedHat can buy them ... on IBM Withdraws $7B Offer For Sun Microsystems, Says NYT · · Score: 1

    Cisco takes the server hardware

    Redhat takes Java

    Novell takes Solaris

    Even better...
