  1. Black on Green on What Font Color Is Best For Eyes? · · Score: 1

    I use black on green but I have a specific problem with my eyes (the name of which I cannot remember).

    I have been told that it basically comes down to contrast. If you have too higher contrast then it is hard to read and the highest contrast for your eyes is meant to be black on yellow which I personally find nearly impossible to read.

  2. Re:North Pole? on Mars Phoenix Probe Successfully Launched · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If Mars has no magnetic field what determines North?

  3. North Pole? on Mars Phoenix Probe Successfully Launched · · Score: 1

    Does any one know if on Mars the North Pole actually the south seeking pole (as on earth) or is it a real north seeking pole like we are used to in bar magnets etc?

  4. Only Slight Problems on Upgrading to Ubuntu Edgy Eft a "Nightmare" · · Score: 1

    I just did an upgrade from Dapper to Edgy (this was the first article I saw after the upgrade). The only problem I had was with xorg not upgrading I had to manually apt-get remove xserver-xorg-core before continuing with the upgrade for it to work for me. This was relatively easy for me to fix but I would imagine that others with less apt command line experience than I have would have found it very stressful.

  5. Re:Wiki? on Generating API Documentation? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Would any one be interested in developing a documentation wiki that integerates with something like doxygen? This is something that I have been thinking about doing my self.

  6. Re:Did you actually read Linus' reply? on Bruce Perens Tells Linus Torvalds To Cool It · · Score: 1
    Everybody seems to forget that McVoy contributed more than $500 000 worth of software to the osdl. Without the contribution, Tridge would have never been able to even try to reverse engineer the program.
    Actually I beleve McVoy said that $500 000 was how much it cost to develop the free version of BitKeeper it was not a donation to ODSL. It realy is just advertising costs for BitMover not phylontharopy.
