  1. Good Move on Anthony Towns Elected New Debian Leader · · Score: 1

    I guess things will heat up for debian now....

  2. What a liar... on Bill Gates' Taxes Require Special Computer · · Score: 1

    $62.88 billion can be easily worked with any desktop pc... Why is it that its always Bill ?

  3. Does Bill think Everyone is a Fool ? on Microsoft Sees IBM as Biggest Threat · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I mean... how can he expect anyone to believe this. Just a month ago in an Television interview he accepted google as its main RIVAL in the coming times because of its high number and quality of innovations. He also vowed to beat google out of search engine market... I guess Bill is having Nightmare... amnesia these days.

  4. Whats the point.... on 2005 a Bad Year For Security · · Score: 5, Insightful

    2005 also saw the largest use of computers on the network... so as a result the crime-rate onthe internet too go up.

  5. Re:So much information... on Britain to log all vehicle movement · · Score: 1

    There is a catch tough. with the number plates... you ought to have the location details as well. Which are changing realt time. This is as well equivalent to tracking any person who is moving. This is gonna be a huge data... may be less then the estimate but this cant be processed real time... so what is the point of collecting such a data.

  6. Re:So much information... on Britain to log all vehicle movement · · Score: 1

    We are talking about video... 256 kbps is a good quality audio. So Its very optimistic to consider a video on a 300kbps (kilo bits per sec) to be even viewable.

  7. So much information... on Britain to log all vehicle movement · · Score: 2, Insightful
    On an average around 10 million vehicles will be on the move from the 100 millon they are planning to record.
    transfered data rate for 1 vehicle = 300kbps
    so for 10 million
    data rate = (10000000 * 300) / (1000 * 1000 ) gbps = 3000gbps = 3.65 GB/sec

    What kind of network infrastructure do you think is needed ?
    I think they are out of their minds to even think of doing this. They can very well have police man on every block running after the vehicals instead.

  8. Can Jurrasic Park be a reality... on DNA of Woolly Mammoth Fully Sequenced · · Score: 2, Funny

    Remember the plot... somehow they used the DNA sequence of existing lizards and filled in the new sequence to fertilize Dianosaur egg.
    :-) I think the scientists must be trying to regenerate a Mammoth out of a current age elephant.

  9. Bush Govt Fascist on ZNet interviews Richard Stallman · · Score: 1

    " JP: A definition would help here too. RMS: Fascism is a system of government that sucks up to business and has no respect for human rights. So the Bush regime is an example, but there are lots of others. " RMS shares ideas with Noam Chomsky.

  10. Is Suprnova... up again on The Truth About Suprnova Shutdown · · Score: 2, Funny

    so what shud we make out of this will the torrent be up again?

  11. Re:My Beamer is a Steamer on Steam Hybrid Car from BMW · · Score: 1

    Yeah, really if this could be worked around for all the engines present currently... this will be a significant moment in the history of automobiles.

  12. Re:advancements/innovation? on Firefox 1.5 RC2 Available · · Score: 1

    How do you know and where do you know this from ??? Be careful M$ can sue you for.. revealing thier secrets ;)

  13. Will Bill come out on top again ? on Leaked Memo Gives Microsoft New Direction? · · Score: 2, Interesting
    I think the main reason for M$'s sucess is because of its persistance. Still remember when it entered the server market everyone was too speculative, but microsoft persisted and kept improving their standards. Finqlly it grabbed a chunk from the server market.

    Sure thing microsoft has plans to do the same in the web-space, but the competetion is tougher in this case. The coming days are gonna be really very interesting.

  14. Someone trasnslate the article on Leaked Pictures of Socket F · · Score: 1

    Dutch people take the lead... no point in looking at the pictures without anything to read.

  15. Re:Trademark on Debian Questions Trademark Policy · · Score: 2, Informative

    " Intellectual Property Australia said the word "Linux" was not distinctive enough to be trademarked and was similar to other trademarks owned locally. " This is the reason given in the article... dunno what it means.. someone plzz elaborate -- majjj
