  1. Re:Sorry, but Intel Sucks on Intel Linux Driver Version 1.0 For Centrino WLAN · · Score: 2, Insightful

    No, chips derived from the ARM line of CPU's are some of the best mobile CPUs every made, it just that the Pentium-M is, currently, the best performing, in W/per unit of work, mobile CPU that runs windows.

    Different CPU's are made for different things and blanket statements are almost always wrong in regards to CPU's

    Turn down the memory cache. Follow the steps at the link above and then fully restart firefox. It will make a huge difference.

    Their are a lot of config hacks at that link that will let you do a lot on really neat stuff.

    No, it the actions of the kids that get the parents into trouble. It is an extention of the logic those who wish to ban guns use in that they are blaming the tool instead of the user.

    Funny how that works.

    Easy, this is a program that you install and run on your own. It doesn't install itself with out your permission nor does it erase anything with out your permission.

    Just because you don't like something doesn't mean it involves terrorism.

    Why should I use your service when 1and1.com has a dedicated server for 49.00 USD per month and only charges 1.00 per GB for transfer above 500GB?

    I am only asking this because I clicked on your link that /. says goes to google, but really ends up at your main site. Why is that?

    And what stops the Chinese CO2 from crossing the planet? Do they have some sort of CO2 firewall at their borders or is the Great Wall really an ancient alien artifact that turns CO2 into grape jelly?

    Please read up on the pollution and dumping problems china has. While you are doing it research the ship graveyards in India.

    IT's much worse in those countries because they have no effective pollution control laws at all. Don't fuck up the USA and EU's economy simply to give China and India bigger advantages than they already have.

    But this is /. where thinking is an endangered species

    Please check where most of the worlds factories are now being build and understand that giving the countries a pass is stupid and will result in the treaty not working.

    You should also check the current cancer rates and water pollution rates in china. It is much worse than any place in the USA has been in 20+ years.

  18. It's is a SHAM. on U.S. Continues Opposition to Kyoto Environmental Treaty · · Score: 1, Insightful

    This treaty doesn't hold India or China to the same levels that the USA and EU are held to.

    If they want the treaty to be approved it has to treat everyone the same, this one doesn't.
