  1. Re:Tough sell on Dropbox Founder Wants To Build the Next Google · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The nice thing (tm) with dropbox is that it is OS agnostic. I can have my files synchronized on all of my platforms - easy. With me being on *nix/win/android/mac platforms (at work/uni/home) it really pays of that dropbox is not requiring me to stay on one OS at all. To make the case with WinZip, if the included zip extractor found in the operating systems where so that you could only open "windows zips" on windows, and so on. Then WinZip would still be in great shape!

  2. RIP please? on Hotmail Mobile Usage Spikes Thanks To Apple iOS 5 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    This is bad news, hotmail is a service that should be allowed to die...

  3. Re:What about a Linux port? on Source Engine SDK To Be Free · · Score: 1

    If we are lucky they will release the entire source code, so that the open source community can work its magic and port it them selfs. I for one would gladly pitch in making source-games for linux if I had the chance :D (Tux -something something- FPS here I come ! )

  4. Re:Something lost in translation there on Japan Criminalizes Virus Creation · · Score: 1

    It will be legal as you include the probability distribution the random number was sampled from (and the method of sampling) in the p0rn emails. Numbers picked without a probability distribution is strictly illegal and should be punished.

  5. A relevant question on The Tuesday Birthday Problem · · Score: 1

    Are one to assume that the father and mother of both kids are the same? If they are then the probability for the second kid to also be a boy is increased as statistically a male/female pair is more prone to produce more of the firstborns gender than the opposite.
