  7. waiting for the gnu crowd to chime in on Tim O'Reilly Bashes Open Source Efforts in Govt · · Score: 1

    maybe this is the article the community needs to prove to ESR and RMS that their fanaticism is getting the community nowhere.

  14. look at what Arizona did, then run ... run fast on Alternative-Fuel Vehicle Recommendations? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Arizona tried something like this, but they started with regular vehicles and then gave tax credits to people who converted their vehicles to be hybrid gasoline and natural gas. If your state tries to do something like this, run for the hills. Arizona is at least $1US billion in the red because to these tax credits. They are trying to work the numbers to make it $1 billion. To sum it up, don't let your local gov't give tax credits for AFVs ... it'll end up costing more.

  15. yes, no thanks to marketing on Is There Such a Thing as "Too User Friendly"? · · Score: 1

    i have a customer hell bent on moving to windows/office xp so he can use the 'new, must have' features they offer ... for example, being able to do speech-to-powerpoint stuff.

    i could blame it on ms, or the 4000 ms-centric mags out there hyping it, not sure. i've tried to tell him the setup he has now works perfectly fine, but, he wants to switch. after all he *needs* this extra fluff.

    at least he knows i charge extra for supporting xp.

  18. Re:Stability on Boeing Blended Wing Body Aircraft · · Score: 0

    the problem with the original 117 was that it's tail was too small. they added about a square foot to each tail and it was golden. one of the very few physical modifications that had to be done to the bird because of all the computer modeling that was used.
