  1. is it really crippled? on Verizon Crippled Bluetooth Features in Motorola V710 · · Score: 1

    is it really crippled by not having obex? correct me if i'm wrong, but obex isn't part of the bluetooth standard is it?

    isn't that like saying hp was planning on shipping a crippled computer because it didn't have a mail reader installed?

    good luck finding a phone that supports java to work with verizon, all of there phones are brew based.

  4. sponsored links.. on Why is Java Considered Un-Cool? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Is it just me, or are there more sponsored links on that page than there is information.

  6. Re:Do People From GOOGLE Read /.? on OS Stats Removed From Google's Zeitgeist · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Google has GoogleGuy who responds on a lot of forums. From what I understand, it mostly one guy, but it's a generic name so that anyone that works at google can step up and fill in for him.

    ignorant mods don't understand what a troll is.

  8. Re:Environmental effects on Cooling Toronto Using Lake Ontario · · Score: 1

    There's nothing profound about 4c water at the bottom of a lake. It's just dense. Every winter, northern climates create a whole slew of new 4c molecules that all sprint for the bottom. Once the whole lake is pretty churned up and largely at 4c, then nature goes to work making ice.

    That's mostly right, except the 4c molecules don't sprint for the bottom since cold is the absence of heat, not the other way around.

    its a good way to get some nice photos of everyone at the reception, but for actual wedding photo's, those disposeables take horrible pictures.

  23. autoupdating apps are annoying.. on Auto-Updates - Proactive or Begging for Abuse? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Autoupdating as it is used by most apps is just annoying.

    Certain things need to be updated frequently, such operating systems and antivirus programs. Programs like quicktime and real don't need to be updated more that a few times a year, at yet they try to have tray icons running all the time.. Generally these autoupdating utilities are used to steal file associations everytime you try to change them back to media player or winamp.

    It's one thing for an app to look for updates (after asking you) once you open it, but it is a complete waste of resources for every app to have a tray icon using a few megs of ram to periodically download updates.

  24. Re:LiveJournal on What is Your Favorite RSS Reader? · · Score: 1

    Likewise. Though if you want to add a RSS/Atom feed that doesn't already exist on LJ, you need to be a paid or permanent member.

    Or just get someone who is paid to make the feed and then you can add it for free..
