  1. Microsoft had time to make windows instintive on Why Aren't People Abandoning Windows For Linux? (slashgear.com) · · Score: 1

    As an evolution from DOS
    Windows has been around enough to make its architecture feel instinctive.
    Its organized and works well enough.

    Linux its a kitchen with too many chefs.
    If you stick with Debian, It tends to be organized, almost professional.
    but, the fractionality of it, its a pain.
    I love the simplicity of Linux and use it for specific tasks,
    but general computing, Windows is the boss.
    I cant visualize someone using Linux without a technological degree, at least.

  2. Linux Community To Adopt New Code of Conduct on Linux Community To Adopt New Code of Conduct (kernel.org) · · Score: 1

    Not Linux Only!
    This blog is in a need of something related.
    I personally decided to contribute to Windows (much more friendly coders & moderators),
    after be bullied at Linux.

  3. Coast Desalination/Valley Better Irrigation. on How 'Virtual Water' Can Help Ease California's Drought · · Score: 1

    Nanotechnology membranes dropped the power consumption to 3kWh/m3,
    with kWh averaging 15 cents....
    That isn't a bad solution at all
    If you consider,
    that on Disneyland you will pay US$5.00 per half litter......

    If the coast cities do desalt,
    much more water will be available to the valleys (farmers)
    with better irrigation tech. (almost nonexistent in the valleys, where plantation techniques still last century, to say the least)
    We could manage the the drought.

    But, if you add the politicians.......
    Forget....
    It won happen!
