  1. Re:Ati Drivers on X.Org 6.8.2 is Out · · Score: 1

    Not full, I had to get a GeForce to replace my RADEON 7000 because the maximum point size was 1 and that made Wings 3D very difficult. Notify me if they ever fix that.

    Team Ninja made a blatently sexist load of shite

    Slashdot is not the place for criticism (constructive or otherwise). If you have clear ideas what can be improved without breaking what is there and works hit bugzilla .

  5. Re:A True Shame on FreeBSD Announces Contest To Replace Daemon Logo · · Score: 3, Funny
    I personally have run into in-duh-viduals who find the BSD beastie mascot offensive for "religious" reasons.
    Next time ask them why they know how the devil looks like...

    The OS is not broken? My old AMD 500MHz box did not skip in GNU+Linux either.
  12. Re:Accountability on Free Open-Source vs. Commercial Security Tools? · · Score: 1

    Stallman has no problem using Linux -- it's free software afterall. HURD has nothing to do with idealism.

  13. Re:Accountability on Free Open-Source vs. Commercial Security Tools? · · Score: 1

    You know that he uses Linux as his kernel, don't you?

    I feel quite safe to use untested things on Mars.

  16. Re:Is TrollTech trolling? on Trolltech to Extend Dual-License to Qt/Windows · · Score: 1

    Internal applications would make no difference to QT as they can use the GPLed version.

  17. Re:Is TrollTech trolling? on Trolltech to Extend Dual-License to Qt/Windows · · Score: 1

    This is a good thing for free software: more windows developers might get involved into writting free, cross platform software.

    The programmer says, "Hey, let's close the windows,open the windows and just see if it works then."

  19. Re:The Point: URLs on Microsoft Seeks Latitude/Longitude Patent · · Score: 1
    As far as I'm aware nobody's ever done it before, which makes it both non-obvious and novel.
    1. I, for one, welcome our new prior art overlord...
    2. Even if they are the first to convert floats to ints on the internet, I still fail to see how it is non-obvious.
    3. Why do they obscure the fact that they are talking about an algorithm by calling it a "computer implemented method"?
  20. Re:Abstract on Microsoft Seeks Latitude/Longitude Patent · · Score: 1

    So a variation of the good old "on the internet" patent?

    The ISS and Hubble are in the same orbit right next to each other?

  23. Re:It sort of makes sense... on Google Ruled a Trademark Infringer · · Score: 1

    Who in their right mind would advertise a competing product? Seems common sense NOT to mention the exact product unless you compare very specific features.
