  5. Autopilot... on Automobiles Evolve to Live Up to Their Name · · Score: 0

    for cars is a little far off as I see it. So a good stop-gap solution for safer driving. Why not GPS enforced speeds limits? Yes there would be problems (ala security) but surely it's easier than Johnny Cab.

    to be the same as Windows. But why would people switch when it's exactly the same? You my say, the price son, tell them the price son! But as we all know, those jeans you are wearing cost quite a pretty penny.

    If education worked, everyone would be using Linux.

    You just contradicted yourself. It is about the travel, of military grade 'passengers', on one-way tickets to oblivion...

    we are all going to ride around standing on two-wheeled gyro-balanced leg-replacers. They will change the layout of entire cities so we can use them to get to our 3rd job, so we can pay the monthly repayments!

    What would be more funny would be if the RIAA sued the victims for filesharing!

    I think this is a bit naive to think that they were that stupid when they moved to a digital format. However it is still possible I guess. Maybe all this sueing etc is just one big marketing compaign that seems to be working.

    Anyway even if it wasn't a nuke, (I'm not a rocket surgeon) I'm sure a scramjet enables a much longer/wider range of targets.

    So they predicted where the ball was going to land after it bounced around like fuck? I think they should be allowed to keep the money if they are that good...

    There should be a rule that if you don't get catch on the night you cheated at the casino you can keep what you win!

  21. The only reason... on Microsoft FUD Machine Aims at OpenOffice.org · · Score: 1, Interesting

    that you would use MS Office is if you HAVE TO have perfect MS Office document formats. Otherwise there is no point. Unfortunately unless a whole lot of people switch to the native Open Office format this isn't going to happen anytime soon.

    I hardly ever use word processing etc applications so I use Open Office because my resumes seem to be converted just fine into larger files. Which equals more bandwidth required to send, times few million to billion people and you have bad efficiency of sending information.

    The fact of the matter is that the USA would have

    high horses misguided fiends of fudbucket! I have read so many people going "Wahhh, only being marketed for Windowsss... Wahhh". Have people forgetten what marketing means? It does not mean that it won't work on your precious Windows, Mac or other other OS. It purely means they aren't going to waste their marketing dollars on freaks with penguin and water fetishes.

    O'Gentoo rules!
