    Yes, you're right.
    And they're already using vista.

  2. up and olpc on Microsoft and OLPC Agree To Put XP On the XO Laptop · · Score: 1

    i have been teaching the up curricula for some time now to some kids and theirs parents as professional formation, feeling the most of the time that I'm selling them the msft technology instead of teaching them something about the professional use of the computer.
    if you join this to the olpc project you'll get marketing for the future leaders of the developed countries of tomorrow.

  5. an adobe standard on PDF Is Now ISO 32000 · · Score: 1

    looks like that in january they were starting to do this, acording to an article in computerworld.
    they said it would took from one to three years, so it looks like it was an easy decision.
    they also say that adobe has had ISO standards for pdf a long time now, and suggests that it could have something to do with file-type standardization.

  7. old news on Methane-Eating Bacteria Could Combat Global Warming · · Score: 2, Interesting

    i though that was common sense in the scientific class that the early earth atmosphere composed essentially by metane and other greenhouse-effect gases was modified by these bugs who fixated the gases from the air. maybe one day when the ocean water become 60C these bugs could come to the surface and to the trick again.

    if you assume that in the universe a planet or even a natural satelite is more than a grain of sand on this cosmic beach.

  10. an office plugin? on Microsoft Faces Fight Against Online Office Rival · · Score: 1

    to promote online file sharing on real time? and setting permisions? looks like to me very dubious and not nothing like an online aplication suite. i have seen people doing this like this by phone, being just fine to have one file updated and then e-mailed to everyone, and i believe that in this case the most simple thing to do should prevail. anyway, it's a crazy thing to do... i guess, imagine if two users try to change a cell value at the sime time, could be complicated, uh?

  11. Re:Name on Holmes Comet Coma Grows Bigger Than The Sun · · Score: 1

    Come on guys, do you know that sol is not science fiction not even pompous posting, it is actually the name of the star that the english-based speakers pompously call "Sun", only in another language, in this case, portuguese. Next time, RTFM before diverging from the topic.

    recently after the goatse revival thing i decided to use that site as my Halloween prank to some of my msn contacts. some of the called me stupid. stupidity is not malware. people can (can they?) recognise what is valuable content. pass on.

  14. yet another distro compare on Vista Vs. Gutsy Gibbon · · Score: 1

    Come on guys, i really don't understand why this conversation hasn't finished yet. Even more, i do not know why ubuntu is so spectacular (as it was gentoo, mandrake, red hat, suse, etc) if it's only the configuration of software that differs in distribution. come on guys, jerk it off somewhere. About ubuntu, the other i ran across a machine running that and the default theme is too brown, i prefer the cristal blue redmond. But i liked when my pen appeared in the desktop when i plugged it in, but tell me, where is the console icon in the menus? I cannot run most of my programs because of this. In redmond i know that i have run in the main menu... Maybe i'll wait a few more years before i try this distro again.

  15. Re:HEMP on First Successful Demonstration of CO2 Capture Technology · · Score: 1

    actualy, hemp is cannabis, and there are varieties of cannabis without thc, the "drug substance" in the plant. all over europe hemp culture is becoming more vulgar for clothing fibers and paper. do you know that the ancient egipt paper was made of cannabis fibers?

  16. Re:Debian - still alive? on Debian 4.0 'Etch' Released · · Score: 1

    and if there were no debian unstable? maybe ubuntu could see their release cycles getting longer, and who knows, maybe passing the 21 months of the latest debian etch. seriously, does anyone need a cutting edge new software every six months? does it improve so much the productivity of your computer work? or maybe is just a symptom of the excellent release times of the latest versions of concurrent softwares and their stability? obviously, the linux users that are uncomfortable with the debian policy and philosophy are the ones that consume tons of bandwidth downloading and installing several distributions a day, knowing nothing more than the installation routines in a graphical environment. But hey, if you need a reason to use debian after ubuntu, just use unstable. congrats and thanks to the debian team for this forth release in a linux world that goes on the two-digit-release and, sho, please... please do not update the debian site, i just like to see it on links, it is sexier in a high level of geekness!!!

    and one day, google campus turned out into 01... and everyone didn't noticed, because it wasn't displayed at google earth.

  18. Not in the psychoanalysis's way on Can Your PC Become Neurotic? · · Score: 1

    Well, a computer cannot become neurotic because the structure of neurosis is based on the assumption that sometime during child development, a trauma occurs, and produces a shock that sends the memory of the event to an unconscious level (ID instance) that can be activated by a similar experience. Then the forgotten trauma becomes a symptom, by the hand of defense mechanisms. Freud called these the "psychoneurosis" or "historical neurosis". And it is absurd to consider that a psyche of a computer is going to replicate ours. The biological value of our life can never be replicated by a machine. We just cannot say how will the computers act. But my best shot goes to Stanislaw Lem's Memoirs of a Space Traveler. :)
