  1. Re:FROM TFA on Water Cooling Computers With A Swimming Pool · · Score: 1

    Well, use multiple buckets then.

  2. Expect more French institutions to do so on French Parliament To Go Open Source · · Score: 1

    Given the strong anti-American sentiment that is rooted deep within (almost) all levels of the French society it is to wonder why France has stuck with Windows for so long. But as the word slowly spreads out there (that there's a "French" OS capable of doing everything windows do) i'm anticipating a massive transision to linux of the majority of the French public sector.

  3. Biggest obstacle? on Biggest Obstacle of Nuclear Fusion Overcome? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    So, nuclear fusion has finally got serious backing from politicians and the R&D budget to go along with it?

  4. A variant of this cured MY lazy eye.. on VR Treatment for Lazy Eye · · Score: 1

    ...it's called VR pr0n!

  5. 48.000 costumers? on Telco Spams and Gets Huge Fine · · Score: 1

    48.000 costumers? Wow no wonder the costume bussiness is in crisis!

  6. Re:Let's see how long that product will be availab on iPod Shuffle Lookalike Hits CeBIT · · Score: 1

    It doesnt matter to them. This is a typical "asian" hit & run operation: Design a knockoff of something wildly popular, make half the web advertize it for free, and sell some hundreds of thousands (or millions) during a couple of months. By the time Apple wakes up, you have already made millions in profits. Apple won't be able to get a penny from you, for obvious reasons: a) you're in Asia. and b) you have a big & loyal family.

  7. Opera 7.56 p4 on New Vulnerability Affects All Browsers · · Score: 1

    No problems. Secuna's site lists an older version of Opera as vulnerable (ver. 7.54)

  8. Re:I am an American citizen living in Turkey... on Former Turkish DMOZ Editor Draws 10 Months In Jail · · Score: 1

    I think you have been living in Turkey a bit too long.
    The Ottoman empire that you describe like it was an oasis of civilization was the same empire that took away millions (yes, MILLIONS, even the Turks are proud of this account) of babies from christian families and turned them into fanatical moslem jannisaries. And the only reason it's neighbours appear hostile today is because all of them have either been invaded or enslaved by the Otto/Turks in the past...Turkey was the first nation in history to try the genocide thingie (1.500.000 Armenians, roughly 75% of the Armenian population), a century plus something ago. And talking about the present, have your Turkish friends ever told you about the infamous "white cells"? About the 1.000ands of executions? About the 1.000 of missing people? (not just kurds, but ANYONE with a non proper Turkish nationalistic attitude was/is marked as an enemy of the state and treated accordingly). And why is "midnight Express" a FALLACIOUS piece of shit, have you done your research, or you was told so? Last but not least, Turkey in 1974 invaded Cuprys, and up to this date still holds over 30% of it's soil. That's - in a nutshell, the kind of country that so desperatelly tries to enter the EU, pretending to be a democracy and all.

  9. This is NOT only about U.S.$ on Photoshop CS Adds Banknote Image Detection, Blocking? · · Score: 1

    ...but about alot of currencies. Actually the code is able to detect the majority of the mainstream currencies in use today e.g euros, pounds, yens. I tried to edit a pic of a euro and a rubel in pretty bad shape, the code recognized them anyway. There's an easy workaround tho, open the image in adobe imageready, and then send it to photoshop.

  10. I've got two words for you... on The Opus Interview · · Score: 1


    Penguin Lust!

  11. At what threshold? on Pentagon and Wi-Fi Deal Reached · · Score: 2, Interesting

    The vast majority of earth's landmass is covered by military radars, most of the times by a multitude of radars overlapping each other. Many of those radars have a radius that exceed some hundreds of miles. Now, wherever someone fires up a future wifi-card, it WILL pick up those distant signals, so, will there be a threshold involved that overrides the whole "detect radar" thingie, or will wifi cards all over the planet stop working just because they detect a radar 500 miles away?
