    > Why do we make our kids take geometry? Proofs. Critical thinking. Algebra? Same thing.

    I happen to be a german programmer (hopefully good :-). Where i live we don't teach geometry or algebra in primary school.

  2. Re: a better question on Why Run Linux On Macs? · · Score: 1

    Not so funny at all, my Mac has both an internal blu-ray drive and software to play blu-ray discs.

  3. Re:iPads seem to overcome moore's law on Apple Announces iPad Air · · Score: 2

    Moore's law is about transistor count, not performance.

  4. Re:Just so long as it remains readily playable on Ultima IV — EA Takedowns Precede Official Reboot · · Score: 1

    "They mentioned morality in the parts nobody cared about."
    Sorry, but this is bullshit. You could not complete the game without complying to the eight virtues.

  5. Re:Huh? on Sony Can Update PS3 Firmware Without Permission · · Score: 1

    "I'm just glad I decided to stick with PC gaming." ??? Sorry, but the actual ass raping is worse at the PC platform. There are single player games that you can not play without an internet connection. When they decide to shut down their servers (they will do it sooner or later), your purchased game is worthless.

  6. Re:Why upgrade now? on Apple Moves to All Dual-Processor Power Mac Lineup · · Score: 1

    they are not "dropping back from 64-bit to 32-bit processors". in the first step they replace the 32-bit G4 with the 32-bit Pentium M. you can bet that the replacement for the 64-bit G5 will be a 64-bit processor.

    i doubt that all the different materials called "paper" ignite at the same temperature...

    I have a hon kong version which is anamorphic widescreen with both japanese and english language tracks (and of course english subtitles). perfect.

  10. Re:Local language software on Indian Government Goes For Free Software · · Score: 1

    we are talking about the indian railway ticket reservation, aren't we? as a german citizen i would be really pissed if our railway ticket reservation would be in english instead of german. (btw, it is optional in english for tourists)

    well, in germany there is a dubbed version available on dvd - to bad, there is no japanese audio track included.

  12. DVD+MP3: it's coming soon! on Pine Introduces New Portable MP3 device · · Score: 1

    Last week i was at the IFA in Berlin (europe's largest consumer electronics fair). There was a chinese manufacturer named "Shinco" which showed a DVD-Player that also played super Video CD, Video CD, MP3 CDs (!!!) (iso9660 with mp3-files on it) and normal audio CDs. Should be available soon (at least in Germany). The mp3-mode was menu driven via the tv-set. Yummy! -Detlef
