  1. Re:One reason this simulator is so cool... on Linux-Based E-Voting In Brazil · · Score: 1

    The simulation only have famous people. Its always good to vote for non-politicians just for a change

  2. Re:All this sounds nice, but there's another side. on Ford To Introduce Restrictive Car Keys For Parents · · Score: 1

    This would be a much more interesting story if they were including the feature on the Mustang to start.

    Would you let your teenager kid drive your mustang? I wouldn't.

    And before someone bashes me for this, It's not about the kid, its about the love for the car :-)

  3. Re:Science Fiction! on Linux-Based E-Voting In Brazil · · Score: 1

    Its sort of scary to see the parent being modded more insightful than funny...

  4. Re:oh goody. on C# In-Depth · · Score: 1

    That's not true. The fact that 2 things are ungly and one of them is deceaving doesn't make the other one deceiving too. Java is ugly and expressive. One is not the cause of the other.

    As far as C# goes, I do like the language. But IMO an equals means I am making an attribution. I dont't expect it to be "rejected" by a checker function. Note that I am not saying Java is better than C#. I am just telling you my opinion about this specific topic regarding both languages

  5. Re:CYMK on GIMP 2.6 Released · · Score: 1

    While I agree with you in general, in this case is more like "are you sure you're one of the persons that really need X?".

    It happens that many just repeat the lack of X without understanding *when* X is needed.

  6. Re:oh goody. on C# In-Depth · · Score: 1

    If your goal is large code, Java is good too! Very verbose language :-)

  7. Re:oh goody. on C# In-Depth · · Score: 1

    My take on this is: Java is more clear about what it is doing, C# has a nicer sintax, the code looks better, but a reader can be deceived by it.

    I would go with Java, its better to have ugly code that is easy to understand

  8. Re:Since when on Google Chrome Spinoff 'Iron' For Privacy Fanatics · · Score: 5, Funny

    So, I wanna know when chrome's next season will begin. I heard it will be on the Linux channel

  9. Re:Title finally write good on Google Unveils First Android Phone · · Score: 1

    hehe. You got me. All that I can say in my defense is that english is not my first language ;-)

  10. Re:Title finally write good on Google Unveils First Android Phone · · Score: 1

    You are correct! I know it because it was my submission ;-)

  11. Re:Title finally write good on Google Unveils First Android Phone · · Score: 1

    Here is the scoop.

    From TFA'a title: "T-Mobile, Google finally unveil the first Android phone". When the submitter took T-mobile out of the post, he left the plural by accident. My guess is that english is not his first language.

  12. Re:Title finally write good on Google Unveils First Android Phone · · Score: 1

    TFA not finally write good, just /. Check it out

  13. Re:Great, but... on Dirac 1.0.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Man, if you find your cat and it is in a box, just don't open it!

  14. Oh the humanity on Slashdot's Disagree Mail · · Score: 1

    Nothing hurts my eyes more than scrolling from the white-on-green area to the back-on-white one. Idle is pain, not pants!

  15. Re:Hubble Windex: For that Deep [Space] Shine! on Hubble Finds Unidentified Object In Space · · Score: 1

    You mean like this?

  16. Re:Very Interesting... on Google Chrome, the Google Browser · · Score: 1

    Actually we were talking about the user interface and not the process architecture.

    From the point of the user's interacion the address bar should be under or over the tab bar? The answer to this question is not related to the fact that each tab is a process or a thread.

  17. Re:It already succeeded on Seinfeld-Windows TV Ad Anything But 'Delicious' · · Score: 1

    This can be true and *this* campaign could be a failure. It is still possible for an advertising campaign to be sucessfull with ads that are not entertaining or mainstream.

    I remember one case here in my country that the ad began looking like a tv tuned to a dead channel. After one or two seconds it went back to normal and a guy gets to talk about the product. The ad on it self wasn't funny or specially well done, but that little stunt kept taking everyone's attentions all the time and the ad was beyond doubt a success even though it was pretty weird.

  18. Re:It already succeeded on Seinfeld-Windows TV Ad Anything But 'Delicious' · · Score: 1

    Remember that we are talking about success of a marketing campaign, not just general success on something. The whole idea is to make people notice your product and this can be done with weird add too.

  19. Re:The Ville on Google Turns 10 · · Score: 2, Informative

    I had a similiar experience. I was always struggling to find somthing at altavista when I heard about google and decided to give it a try. Things that came up at page 65 or whatever on altavista just kept popping on google's first results all the time!

    I dropped altavista and never looked back

  20. Re:Please use this thread to do the following: on MySQL Founder Monty Quits Sun (Or Not) · · Score: 0

    And for the record, when I posted the parent wasn't modded redundant yet...

    Anyways, Montys getting out is not a surprise to me. Probably the guy got enough money on the deal and decided to go home

  21. Re:It already succeeded on Seinfeld-Windows TV Ad Anything But 'Delicious' · · Score: 0

    An ad doesn't have to be funny or entertaining to be a success. If everyone starts talking about it, it has done its job.

    Yes. A 'reduntant' mod.

  23. Re:idle on Slashdot's Disagree Mail · · Score: 1

    slashdot should run a poll about what to do to idle.

  24. Re:So Many Questions About This Section on Slashdot's Disagree Mail · · Score: 2, Insightful

    "Also, what is the expected result of our discussions of this stuff? Is it to pick it apart and analyze it? Is it to provide user generated retorts that you can't due to legal reasons? I shall try a little of both. "

    You shouldn't expect something comming out of idle because that's the section idea,right? No article or comment on idle is expected to have a point. You can say "I prefer idle not to exist", but it is actually delivering what was promissed: nothing but idle time.

    Anyways, I don't like idle either. I would go to over there for this kind of stuff
