    this lawsuit is in the US. Prior Art has become irrelevant.

  2. bothersome on Comparing Linux and BSD, Diplomatically · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Maybe he doesn't have the time but isn't it a good idea to learn some of the technical details of the competition, especially when it's all legal to look at the code of what they do well. He should know at least the general arch and some tech details in areas linux is trying to get better at.

    of course, this is my engineering mind thinking. Learn from what's out there and then do it better.

  3. Re:Management on Can Hayao Miyazaki Save Disney's Soul? · · Score: 1

    You hit the nail on the head.

    Management is the issue over there. They are a management that seems to not understand what works for their target market. The market changed and they just don't get the way the market works now or really understand their customers.

    The true test will be to see if they can regain what they had. In the meantime I won't be buying their stock.

  7. Re:Left-handed model? on Nokia's Linux Handheld · · Score: 2, Funny

    I doubt there will be a left-handed model. Pretty much every PDA or device like this one has buttons on the left side, which I can't use because I'm holding the device with my right hand because I need to write on it with my left hand.

    These companies are obviously pregadous against left handed people. You should sue. This is discrimination. The right handers bringing down the left handers. It's must be a secret plot becuase the of the right handers in positions of power not wanting the left handers to get into their inner circle.

  8. No they don't on Google Map Hack & Chicago Crime Data · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I guess some people actually read the articles!

    No they don't RTFA, it's just lunch time so your companies network is being maxed out.

  9. Why not both on Google Map Hack & Chicago Crime Data · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Pull open HousingMaps next to Chicagocrime.org and figure out if that low rent apartment is truly worth it. Or is this all a clever trick on Google's part to build up more and more third parties dependent upon Google?

    Why can't it be both. And if there is a way to keep it free the better for me.

    they could track your movements and sell that info to marketing compaies in the same way that credit card compaines do that.

  13. will this work? on OpenID - Open Source Single-SignOn · · Score: 2, Insightful

    so, if it's open it's good but if it's M$ it's evil with regards to single sign-on? Aren't there a lot of other considerations with regard to security and single sign-on. Such as one login gets you into banck accounts, and pretty much everything else.

    If you really want this use something liek keychain (on a mac) but in general one password to control them all isn't such a good idea.

  14. Re:Open on OpenID - Open Source Single-SignOn · · Score: 1

    Does it mean I have release my password per GPL and anyone is allowed to modify and distribute it for free?

    Yes. And if you with hold your password, that is like withholding propritary info and not opening it up.

  16. SG1 on Military Seeks Approval to Develop Space Weapons · · Score: 1

    Wasn't there an SG1 episode that dealt with space weapons. And, even though the intentions were good, wasn't the weapon used on our enemies as an offence. So, we may not be able to control all the weapons we put in place.

  17. When did they die? on Invading Privacy for School Credit · · Score: 5, Insightful

    50 deceased persons voted in the last election

    Ah, but did they die right around election time. Could they have sent in an absentee ballot before they died? Or did they die on election day after they voted? Not having all the info can lead to misleading ideas in our overactive imaginations.

    Or, it could be like the earlier post... zombies or ghosts.

    Are we sure that there wasn't a ghost writer on this one? ESB is that best and wasn't written by Lucas. Or, maybe he just learn to write this time around. Either way, I have read that it's damn good and can't wait to see it the minute it opens.

  23. Re:intelegant design != God on The Pseudoscience of Intelligent Design · · Score: -1

    sad part is i know a lot about evolution. a lot they don't teach in schools. i have read books on it, listened to speakers on it, had my questions answered on it, studdied it. I do know a lot. I know a lot that is not common knowledge. For a people taught to question everything and dig into things we tend not to for evolution. I know that people know more than me. I also know that the logic of your message is flawed. Why do you question ID but not allow for evolution to be questioned? Why does a discussion of ID never bring up the merits or science but always turns it into a fight against evolution? Why not learn about ID before you judge it? By judging so quickly aren't you just the same as those christian fundamentalists that won't even look at evolution?

  24. Re:Why was parent moded up? on The Pseudoscience of Intelligent Design · · Score: 0

    This is a falacy. There is a lot of real evidence supporting ID. The problem is no one is taught the science and the evidence. You aren't even aware of the evidence and science behind it. I wasn't aware until I had a college class that opened my eyes.

  25. Re:intelegant design != God on The Pseudoscience of Intelligent Design · · Score: 1

    There is a lot of science but it is not discussed. It is attacked but not discussed. That is one reason to bring it into schools. So, people can become knowledgeable on the science behind it that they can discuss it and vs other theories. Since it has been removed most people don't even know there is a lot of science behind it.
