  1. Re:Maybe I'm missing something.. on MySQL Cofounder Says Oracle Should Sell Database To a Neutral 3d Party · · Score: 1

    MySQL uses the parallel licensing approach to generate revenue to continue the FLOSS development of the software

    Yes... and they did that when they were owned MySQL AB and they did that when they were owned by Sun. Did RMS speak out against it then? Does he speak out in favor of SQLite, PostgreSQL and FireBird now? (All of which are free as in freedom, not free as in herpes).

  2. Re:Maybe I'm missing something.. on MySQL Cofounder Says Oracle Should Sell Database To a Neutral 3d Party · · Score: 1

    There are two other possibilities... the fork takes over and the original becomes irrelevant (x.org vs xfree86) or the original adopts the fork (egcs vs gcc). Oracle can't adopt back any outside fork (as they would no longer have full copyright over it).

  3. Re:Until... on Ultracapacitor Bus Recharges At Each Stop · · Score: 1

    That blog makes no such claim. It does mention this, though:

    The performance of these wheel-motors have been tested in the laboratory, but at the time of the resignation of Dr. Couture, only 2 wheel-motors were installed on the Intrepid and the power electronics was not yet complete, hence the impossibility to have full testing on the road.

    It's an interesting idea, but it may very well be impractical. If it was all that (and then some), why aren't toyota, honda, tesla, or even gm all over it?

    Also useful if you accidentally smear peanut butter all over your balls.

    If you had the flu, you wouldn't confuse it with a standard cold.

    now it can die in parallel, optimized for the number of cores and other system activity.

  8. Re:They should use clang instead of GCC on Apple's Grand Central Dispatch Ported To FreeBSD · · Score: 4, Informative

    Apple maintains their own gcc fork which supports blocks/closures.

    From their developer page:

    Each month, you will be sent an update showing your sales for that period. The base royalty percentage is 70% but that amount goes to 85% if your website is the referring page

  12. Re:Sketched on PhotoSketch Image Manipulation Tool Taking the World by Storm · · Score: -1, Troll

    Troll? He's got a point. Asian dudes have small peckers. That's why (well, one reason) asian chicks like white guys: larger penis size. Same reason White chicks like black dudes and black chicks like horses.

  13. Gartner on Analyst Predicts Android Overtaking iPhone In 2012 · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You lost me at Gartner.

  14. Re:He's right on De Icaza Responds To Stallman · · Score: 2, Funny

    WRONG. Mixing GPL code and non-GPL code results in GPL code.

    "pork and beans" is a sex act that doesn't involve a can of pork and beans. Think "Two guys, 1 cup", but even more disgusting.

    skeet and parenthood? LOL

    For those who don't know, "skeet" is the "pull and shoot" method of birth control, if you get my drift,

    You could use an incrementing hash. Then you'd both be happy.

  20. Re:Looks like a nice device on Early Details On Courier, Microsoft's Take On a Tablet · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Ladies love my 7-inch tablet. Whip out your 3-inch smart phone and they'll just laugh at your equipment. A 11-inch netbook? Sure, it looks good in the movies, but even size queens get a little scared at that size. And forget about anal!

  21. Re:I can tell this article is technical... on The Credibility Issues of MS's CodePlex Foundation · · Score: -1, Offtopic
    That's taken out of context. As written:

    Eric unzipped his pants to reveal his fully erect manhood. His 6 purple-headed warrior assaulted Richard's willing asshole. He was shocked (and pleased) to discover Richard's colon was virgin-tight, a rigid foundation that has almost no wiggle room. Within a matter of seconds, Eric shot his load deep into Richard's ass-pussy and was ready to swap positions.

    There's also some point when you confuse loose/lose.

    Additionally, many early state constitutions included similar clauses, but with less ambiguity.

    Pennsylvania (where the constitution was written), for example:

    The right of the citizens to bear arms in defense of themselves and the State shall not be questioned.

  25. Re:No windows support? on ARM Attacks Intel's Netbook Stranglehold · · Score: 1

    Maybe you should imagine the story title: "ARM Attacks Intel's Netbook Stranglehold." Or Maybe you should imagine RiscOS and Acorn. ARM was on the desktop long before it went embedded.
