  1. Will Smith on Asimov's "I, Robot" Gets Movie Treatment · · Score: 1

    Is this movie where Will Smith hunts robots with big guns, then the robots win the war and start using humans as energy, then a robot is sent back to the past to kill the mother of Will Smith?

    Oh, wait, i'm confused...

  2. Re:This is where Linux is retarded... on NVIDIA Releases New Linux Drivers · · Score: 1

    >> Spending any more than 10 or 20 minutes loading a driver is retarded, and even though I'm a firm believer in Linux and its future, I'll be the first to say this.
    Huh? 10 or 20 minutes loading a driver? what machine are you using? a clock?
    API? what's that? Microsoft? are you from this planet?

  3. Re:give me a break on MySQL Gets Functions in Java · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I agree, migrating from another database to mysql is a pain in the ass and impossible, due to the lack of a lot of functionalities you said.
    Postgresql, in the other side, is close to other databases, and migrating to it maybe is a pain in the ass too, but not impossible.
    Last version of Postgresql is really fast, so why should I use Mysql?

    Good! they're investing on ships so they're prepared when we kick'em from earth!

  6. Re:Thank you Microsoft on 235,000 Fewer Programmers by 2015 · · Score: 1

    I agree, but world is full of programmers that only code for their own profit, just to earn money. That's not the true spirit of Free software (or you mean open source?).
    New technologies like .NET are that king of programmers.

  7. Re:Big Deal on 235,000 Fewer Programmers by 2015 · · Score: 1

    You are wrong, Microsoft did it. Everybody can code using Microsoft user friendly technologies for programming.
    Companies wants the applications as soon as it's posible, so they choose Microsoft, for example .NET.
    I hate when a programmer says "I'll use .NET because I can make an application fast and earn monkey fast."

  8. Thank you Microsoft on 235,000 Fewer Programmers by 2015 · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Say a big thank you to Microsoft for the new technology for "user friendly" programming...
    God, my sister can make a program with .NET in a few hours...

  9. ISP on Have You Fought Your ISP Over Bandwidth Limits? · · Score: 1

    Maybe this is a bit offtopic, but talks about how ISP do whatever they want.

    I live in Argentina, i pay for a crappy 256k/s ADSL connection and I had several "fights" with my ISP. The download and upload was slow, so I picked up the telephone and called the ISP (Speedy). They show how fast you can download a file from THEIR SERVERS.
    I said "Hey, but i never download files from your servers", so after a lot of calls, they told me that they only ensures the 2% of your bandwith! So you can't say anything if your download works worse than using a modem.
    I asked them to tell me where they inform the people about this, nobody answered me.

  10. Re:ill pass... on Paid to Play Video Games · · Score: 1

    Ask a professional football player if he still loves to play football.
    I think professional sports and professional gamming have a lot in common.

  11. Re:Possible limits on future career choices... on Paid to Play Video Games · · Score: 1

    You should look at this with a new vision, maybe in a future this will be as normal as a soccer player earning over 1 million a year... Look at this like a new professional sport, not a new job.

  12. Cyber sport on Paid to Play Video Games · · Score: 1

    Maybe this is the beginning of a new "Sport"? Olimpic cyber games?

  13. Re:Open Source = good ... but on How to Misunderstand Open Source · · Score: 0

    If i take your post to evaluate closed source, professionalism doesn't exist.
    And of course, you can deploy OS to a company or give it to your wife, mother, sister, sons. I do.

  14. Future on Yet Another Debian-based Distro: Mepis · · Score: 0

    I see a future full of linux distros without anything different... It's good to see new distros, but they need to have something special different from others. Is this the case? I don't think so...

  15. Re:Debian done right? on Yet Another Debian-based Distro: Mepis · · Score: 0

    Did you try knoppix? you don't need to install it to a hard disk if you want, it runs from a cd, so you don't have to install anything. I'll try this distro anyways...

    is a copy of xbill included?

  17. Re:User friendliness on Red Hat CEO Matthew Szulik Responds · · Score: 1

    What's the difference between installing a program, learn how does it works and this? I only need to mount the device and I can "browse" the pictures using my favorite graphics program. The user should learn the basics of the OS, this includes mounting a device, if he can't do that, then he should stick with windows.

  18. Re:User friendliness on Red Hat CEO Matthew Szulik Responds · · Score: 1

    I have a sony p31, only plug the cable, mount /dev/sda1 and whoala! my camera is now a disk device mounted.
    What's difficult with that?
