What is the latest project on sourceforge? Have you guys checked it out? The project starter may still have some kumba-ya feeling, so let's share the feeling together among us!
Friend A: Dude check out my diaspora page! I've set up my own server to show it!
Friend B: Okay, will check out.
Hours later
Friend B: I can't access your page. What happened?
Friend A: Sorry, I'm offline now. Why don't you try accessing it again later when I turn on my computer?
You know how many media players these days have built-in "libraries", where they'd store their own redundant copy of the media in their own folder for easy organization? Other softwares can imitate that too. Imagine, no more file browsing in your Office app! Only "document" browsing
You mean like how they'd blow themselves up together with the plane? I'd say it's still a small part. Non-religious terrorists would still blow up the place with some other method.
I've checked with Wikipedia too, he's born in NY and nationality is listed as United States. Why are you saying he's Keynesian? Did you confuse it with Obama's biography?
Not to you, but it is not meaningless to others. Many read at 1 or 2, so your comment won't get read. Which is not a big deal to you if you never intended for it to be read.
Or is that a whooshing sound I'm hearing because I'm not getting the joke?
they're going to build future products that leverage that information.
To which you commented:
You are the product
I couldn't make a sense out of that at first. But seeing that this was about G+, I can see that you were implying that "you are going to be introduced as friends to existing G+ users, who only had nerds in their circles."
If you have to blame, blame the community. Apparently, when a select number of moderators is elected from the readership to determine what gets to the front page, there are always a significant number which will mod this kind of news up.
You should've left out the last line, at least someone else could profit from getting modded "Funny" using it if you happened to have maxed out your score.
Oh great. Now it's your fault that the next Windows release will have a UAC prompt to ask whether you actually want to use USB on 100W everytime you plug one.
You wouldn't want to focus on a project unless you either (a) are paid to work on it (or gives you a form of profit, or (b) are enthusiastic about it. There are kernels written in C++ or Java but most of them do not get enough funding, and not many C++/Java enthusiasts are interested in working on a kernel. Likewise, those who just don't want to program in C for the Linux kernel will never work on the kernel unless there's something in for them. People who code for KDE because of their preference for QT/C++, won't code for GNOME, and vice versa. Ditto with other desktop environment projects. And if you force them to work on solely one DE? "Over my dead body, might as well I don't code at all!"
You need to remember that most of the developers for non-profit open source projects are there by their own choice. Some will form teams if they think their shared vision is good enough for them to cast aside their differences in ideologies. But you can't force vision/ideologies on everyone, there is no obligation upon them.
I don't where they got that rate, but as far as I know the cheapest broadband is around 2000 yen per month @ 12Mbit/s, which was roughly equivalent to $20 before the yen hike. The 100Mbit optical fiber line I used to use was around 4500 yen per month.
Do you realize what that amazon's list was supposed to be about?
There are some really awesome Android handsets that are more than a match for the iPhone. These don't make up the majority of the Android market share though
And so the list was posted to prove otherwise. Then suddenly you come out of nowhere with a link that has nothing to do with the above. What the heck is wrong with you?

An episode in Diaspora:

So what do you suggest to use for communicating data between client and server? JSON?

I never saw advertisements on my Google Docs. Do you have a malware on your browser?
Let's say I want to develop software, which uses AVC, for free distribution. Do I still have to pay?
Blocking the sales does not mean the merchandise is banned in the country.

*ahem* it's askjeeves.com
I, OTOH, fancied Infoseek's search within result feature
Oh my bad. I suppose the Keynes' surname has its root in the African country?
I've checked with Wikipedia too, he's born in NY and nationality is listed as United States. Why are you saying he's Keynesian? Did you confuse it with Obama's biography?

I couldn't imagine. Can you please give something that all of us slashdotters can relate to?
or family
Oh, okay.

This particular tree is a bad tree and we don't want more cats stuck in it. Might as well firebomb it.

Internal usage of modified GPL code does not require you to publish it.

It allows new contenders to jump in the game development bandwagon and pick up the pace better.

2 pages a minute?! What kind of scanner is he using!? My ScanSnap can scan more than that in a minute at 300dpi, double-sided.
And let her have her way with you?
