  1. Is logical, really on In-Game Advertising Makes Games Better? · · Score: 1

    If the game designer try to create a realistic city, why not the ads can be realistic too?

  2. Re:Cars??? on Penny-Sized Nuclear Batteries Developed · · Score: 1

    Direct ratiation to electricity? Even better! Maybe cause problens on peacemakers, but imagine that one a little bigger (maybe multicells on one package) on a notebook? Cool notebook and years of operation

  3. Re:Cars??? on Penny-Sized Nuclear Batteries Developed · · Score: 1

    NASA Calls this RTG. We need just a cheap one (plutonium is expensive) and better cooled (space RTGs throws a considerable amount of heat. Not a problem on space, but maybe cause problems inside one car)

  4. Were I can buy one? on Penny-Sized Nuclear Batteries Developed · · Score: 1

    I like to purchase one to my cellphone, one a little bigger to my notebook and... They have one big enought to power a Radeon 4870X2?

  5. Re:Yeah, but on NASA Discovers Giant Ring Around Saturn · · Score: 1

    Ooops, I forget. And a note too: Most of the universe mass can be just normal matter, but too sparse to block radiation from other sources, and therefore "invisible" to telescopes.

    I agree with you. Maybe most of universe mass is not "exotic" matter, but just normal matter than do not emit radiation (heat, ligth, etc)

  10. Re:duh on Game Over For Sony and Open Source? · · Score: 1

    For the point of technical complications versus price versus computational power, one actual GPU is a lot better than a Cell.

  11. If you do not have a decent product... on EA Spends 3x More On Marketing Than Development · · Score: 1

    ... then make anyone think your product is the best thing on universe using more marketing!

    I know, is irrational, nonsense and stupid. But is how the CEOs thinks and works

  12. Re:I really hope I misread this article, but... on Lori Drew Cyberbullying Case Dismissed · · Score: 2, Insightful

  17. Re:Really? on FSF Attacks Windows 7's "Sins" In New Campaign · · Score: 1

    DRM only to playback HD content? Good luck. On the net is easy to find a lot of good info about the many ways Vista (and seven as well, off course) can cripple yours videos, music, and maybe even any digital content they suspect is not a "legal copy". Maybe I change to Seven, only when I find and neutralize all the DRM crap.

  18. Put human workers back on Offshore Drilling Rigs Vulnerable To Hackers · · Score: 1

    Some things needs to be done only by human workers on site.

  19. Another name for bloatware on Red Hat Spins Off JBoss 2.x As HornetQ · · Score: 1

    Just another shinny new name for a bloated server... A Jboss server needs here one MINUTE to load. the Apache Tomcat server? Just 4 seconds


    And yes, I know the Jboss have "lots of features". But nothing I cannot make by myself as needed and using a lot less memory.

  20. ATMs here uses Windows on Banks Urge Businesses To Lock Down Online Banking · · Score: 3, Informative

    On my country, outsourcing is the same as disaster. You pay the same for a poor service.

  24. Only 10? on Poor Design Choices In the Star Wars Universe · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Is possible to enumerate more than 100 "flaws" on Star Wars Universe, but I need to agree with mosty of hollywood "Space Operas" do not attempt to even be plausible, what matters is just being "cool" for a number of spectators unaware of any real science or logic.


    (Brazilian portuguese)

    Eh possivel enumerar mais do que 100 "falhas", no universo de Guerra nas Estrelas, mas eu tenho que concordar que a maior parte das "Operas espaciais" de Hollywood nao tentam sequer serem plausiveis, o que importa eh apenas serem "cool" para um numero de espectadores que desconhecem qualquer ciencia real ou logica.

  25. Re:You're missing the point. on US Navy Tries To Turn Seawater Into Jet Fuel · · Score: 1

    We need +6 Insightful on Slashdot

    Yep, the military do not care if is costly to make fuel by this way. Is more safe for the fleet, you do not need vulnerable (and slow) tankers and maybe will be more cheap than make the fuel on conventional way, put then on a tanker and send the tanker to meet with the battlegroup.
