  2. Re:I HATE THE SLIDE RULE. on Know How To Use a Slide Rule? · · Score: 1

    It is still mandatory to learn how to use a circular slide rule when training for private pilot license in many countries. Not sure about the US though ( took my PPL in Florida, but on the UK syllabus). I think its great fun doing calculations on it! Here's a pic of it: http://flickr.com/photos/kalleh/458254643/

    ..... I am quite sure that my copy of MS Word implements this feature.

  7. Re:Bias? [mod parent up] on Mambo Changes its Name to Joomla! · · Score: 1

    This article is not just biased but intentionally plain wrong. This would be like saying XFree86 has been renamed to x.org.

  8. Re:Time to stop reading Slashdot? on Is It Wrong to Love Microsoft? · · Score: 1

    Agree. This might be news for nerds, but it surely ain't stuff that matters. Editors, please start giving us articles with actual depth to discuss so we can all actually learn something.

    Not sure if you mean this one, but here is a long video of Stevie doing a demo of NeXTSTEP 3.0:

  10. Is it signed by Verizon? on Stable Linux Kernel 2.6.10 Released · · Score: 1

    I also noticed they promote downloading it through mirrors. EVERONE knows mirrors are bad security (especially mirrors with numeric ip addresses! http://blogs.msdn.com/ptorr/archive/2004/12/20/327 511.aspx :P

  11. Re:What's the marketing campaign on Firefox New York Times Ad Hits the Presses · · Score: 1
    One ad can simply state: "No pop up ads. EVER" with the firefox logo and link to download it. Another ad could highlight the best, most useful extensions. I think the weather update/forecast extension would be perfect for this.
    Yea, and then they could put the advertisement in a pop-up ad on the NYT website.
  12. Re:Sounds Familiar on Car With A Mind Of Its Own -- Part 2 · · Score: 1

    I know for sure this happened to a Swiss Airlines SAAB 340 when the instructor tried to show the student it was impossible to retract the gears on the ground.

  13. Powerbook G5 soon? on Apple Introduces New G5 iMac · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If they can fit a G5 inside that box we should be seeing powerbook G5's soon. The heat issue with the G5 seems to be solved.

  14. Isn't GSM encrypted by default? on Encrypted Cell Phone Hits the Market · · Score: 1

    I was under the impression that GSM is encrypted by default. I even recall a story where the KGB requested russion operators to cancel encryption in their networks to be able to tap the maffia. Anyone?

  15. Re:Expose on Ars Technica Posts Panther Review · · Score: 5, Funny

    I have no idea either. And why did they start with this nice-looking UI thing, I mean, what can they do I cannot do with emacs in terminal mode?
