  5. Re: Not Ubuntu to blame on Skype Blocks Customers Using OS-X 10.5.x and Earlier · · Score: 1

    Canonical partner repository does, and they pushed the new skype a couple of days before it stopped worling. So at least on ubuntu the usual apt-get trick should work. The debian download is different on the website, I don't know if it belongs to the same package though (a.k.a. I don't know if it is safe to use the partner repository on debian, you might debdiff the binaries or unpack them to check)

  6. Re: About to be deleted on Wikipedia Reports 50 Links From Google 'Forgotten', Issues Transparency Report · · Score: 2

    I didn't look at the en pages, but Renato Vallanzasca is a famous italian criminal, and I don't think the page was candidate for deletion. (altough I think the notoriety of the criminal will riseup again)

    "null" is just a set of '0' in the value. the probability is really low (1/sizeof(ptr)) but it can randomly be null

  12. Re:40 years and I still can't solve it on Rubik's Cube: 40 Years Old and Never Meant To Be a Toy · · Score: 3, Informative

    This is easy: remove all the coloured stickers from each cube face, and you get a cube with each face having a uniform colour.

    I did exactly this when I received my first cube. Still not able to solve it :)

    China Bumps US Out of First Place For Fastest Supercomptuer

    Well, China would have it easy when the article submitter misspells COMPUTER...
