  1. Re:Rest of World on Happy Pi Day · · Score: 1

    In the rest of the world, we have the Pi month. XX/3/14. Take that, ameridudes! Unfortunately, only every 1000 years

  2. don't forget the artists on You Will Never Kill Piracy · · Score: 1

    Everyone is talking about labels and government and such, but as i see it, there is no label if there is no musicians. Maybe the change needs to start with them. Its not difficult, maybe start earning with live shows instead of media distribution. Black-eyed peas made a videoclip were a samsung cellphone appeared in it, an obvious ad as the clip had nothing to do with cellphones and the cams focused in it to better show the brand. And still, i see the album of this song, 1 or 2 years old, being sold for $10 on amazon. They probably made a millionaire agreement with samsung, but aren't satisfied enough.

  3. Re:There will be no GNOME 4. on GNOME 3 Wins Linux Journal's Readers' Choice Award · · Score: 1

    Minor disagree here, firefox is dying for the memory leaks and occasional crashes and so on caused by developers changing focus to something that doesn't really matter; the design is just a generic copy of chrome that is used by explorer 9+ too. I think that it become too big, and the developers started to think like the big corporations and broke it because of that. After all, what made firefox get so many adepts is probably the way it made the things different from microsoft and explorer. Maybe gnome suffered from the same disease.

  4. Re:I gave gifts like this once. Everyone hated the on Ask Slashdot: Good, Useful Free Software For Gifts? · · Score: 1

    If you're trying to spread the news about Free Software, the only effective way to do it is to SHOW them. Most of the people whom I've converted to Linux did so after watching me use KDE (formerly) and Gnome (more recently).

    I second this, the few people that show me some interest about linux had done this for little things of interest after watching my desktop. For example, a coworker tried linux after he saw some of my xfce screensavers (cow bouncing, pacman played by the computer, etc). Came for the screensaver, stayed for the free stuff.

  5. Re:Sadly its not real on 1 MW Cold Fusion Plant Supposedly To Come Online · · Score: 1

    I don't know about the plastic things that are meant to be a reactor, but looks he doesn't used a generator on purpose, he just measured the water temperature before and after it passed the reactor and calculated the thermal generation. At least is what i thought after reading the report in http://db.tt/wu4OLbgk in the second page. But looks like no one at the test was able to measure the water temperature with their own equipment. For someone trying to prove a pathological science, that is very strange indeed.

  6. Re:Killer app, Driving you home from a bar! on How Google's Autonomous Vehicles Work · · Score: 1

    The "drive the passed out" thing is nice, but im waiting for the car that drops me in front of my office then leaves to find a place to park itself.
