  1. Re:Use Prism? on Ask Slashdot: Chromeless Cross-Platform Browser? · · Score: 2

    Follow the links on the page you provided, and you'll see that Prism isn't supported past Firefox 3.6.*. Also, Mozilla themselves said that Prism is now Chromeless.

  3. No good apps on KDE Software Compilation 4.6.0 Released · · Score: 1

    I used to use KDE, but I switched away when I realized that none of the apps I use are Qt-based. Let me know when I can use a Qt-based Chrome or Firefox, a Qt-based Vim, and when SWT/Qt is stable (with a Qt-based Eclipse release). Until then, I'll continue using Gnome. Plus they are really pushing Akonadi hard, and I don't want to run it. And so many bugs I have voted on the KDE bugtracker that never get fixed... It's really too bad. I love Qt as a toolkit.

  4. Re:4.6 Great, but... on KDE Software Compilation 4.6.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Looking at their subversion repository, I don't think OpenChange is dead. They just don't seem to give news updates very often. http://websvn.openchange.org/log.php?repname=OpenChange&path=/trunk/&isdir=1&

  5. Naming Conflict on New Programming Language Weaves Security Into Code · · Score: 2, Informative

    Not to be confused with the *other* development-related Fabric at http://fabfile.org/

  6. Re:A shame I won't be playing it. on Blizzard Announces Final Diablo 3 Class, PvP Arena Battles · · Score: 1

    Ah, I think I see what you're saying. The banned player should still be able to play single-player campaign without the ability to gain achievements. That would be fair, yes. Maybe they just didn't think of that... I know I didn't.

  7. Re:A shame I won't be playing it. on Blizzard Announces Final Diablo 3 Class, PvP Arena Battles · · Score: 1

    You're getting too caught up in the details of the analogy. Fine, let's say they don't take your gun, but they revoke your shooting license. Or we could switch the analogy to something like competitive sprints, where all they can do is ban you from tracks.

  8. Re:A shame I won't be playing it. on Blizzard Announces Final Diablo 3 Class, PvP Arena Battles · · Score: 1

    I actually own a gun. Your analogy isn't quite right. Let's say you like to shoot competitively. Someone finds out that you've been cheating in order to get your trophies. Your trophies are taken away, and your gun is taken away, but you can to pay $60 to buy another gun. Losing the money is the risk you take when you cheat, I guess. It pays for Blizzard to keep things fair, though, so I am still all for it.

    Nobody, you say? You shouldn't exaggerate, my friend. I care about them.

    Don't know where you're getting your data from... If that's a joke, it's not funny. Anyway, count me on the side of Neoprofin and many other Starcraft 2 players that are happy with Blizzard's actions.

  11. Re:A shame I won't be playing it. on Blizzard Announces Final Diablo 3 Class, PvP Arena Battles · · Score: 1

    In my opinion, yes it does. It's a competitive game. There are many people, including me, who are proud of our "achievements." Someone cheating to get the same reward is grounds for banning. It's the same way in most things competitive... I'm not saying you should buy the game, but I'm saying I don't agree with your particular beef with Blizzard. I'm a customer, and I approve of what they're doing.

  12. unreliable on Japanese Turning To "Therapeutic Ringtones" · · Score: 1

    In order to make it through the day, do these Japanese rely on a bunch of people calling them? Somehow I don't think phonecalls are going to motivate a "sluggardly housewife" (from TFA) to do more housework. Also, where are the examples? This article is no good without examples.

  13. Gnome rivalry on Oracle Drops Sun's Commitment To Accessibility · · Score: 0, Troll

    Maybe the folks at Oracle use KDE.

  14. Re:He got paid. It's GPL. on Monty Wants To Save MySQL · · Score: 1

    He *has* forked it. Regardless of Monty's intentions, I'm growing tired of seeing this argument stated over and over.

  15. Re:First post on Chrome OS and Android "Will Likely Converge" In the Future · · Score: 1

    Really? I don't see anyone claiming that it should be called Linux/Chrome...

  16. Re:This is devastating... on Apple Discontinues ZFS Project · · Score: 2, Funny

    It would have been like Microsoft dropping WinFS for Vista, right?

  17. Re:Now explain triple-slashes on Tim Berners-Lee Is Sorry About the Slashes · · Score: 1

    file:// indicates the protocol. The third slash indicates that it is an absolute path.

  18. Re:Complete rubbish on Mass Speculation Suggests Oracle May Kill OpenSolaris · · Score: 1

    While this is a good observation, I believe there is an argument against this. Oracle has a wide variety of supported platforms. Wouldn't it be more cost-effective to focus development efforts on Linux rather than keeping Solaris alive? They are going to have to maintain Linux either way.

  19. Re:Already Open on Mass Speculation Suggests Oracle May Kill OpenSolaris · · Score: 5, Interesting

    The question, though, is whether a fork would be successful. Without the Sun-paid developers, would OpenSolaris keep its development momentum? My guess is that it would not.

    Dude, this was a 12 year old *girl*.

  21. Devolution on Ink Breakthrough Heralds Bendy PC Screens · · Score: 1

    My notebook computer is that much closer to devolving into a pen-and-paper notebook. I mean, you can already write on tablets. Make them a bit thinner, and more bendy, and what's the difference?
