I read in a newspaper in the train that this technology also can be used to detect lies. A lie-meter would be shown on the telephone indicating how much the other person lies. Finally a a useful technology.
What?! Star Wars is like the most essential science fiction movie on this planet. Matrix is just some postmodern crap;-) No, give me Star Wars - that's a classic.
It's going to be great to have the first three Star Wars films on DVD. I once have taped them on VHS, but the quality is bad. Furthermore, I have by mistake taped some other show on the tapes.
It's also a good thing that there's no more than one extra bonus DVD, as opposed to the Lord of the Rings Extended DVD sets. It's simply too much, for me at least.
You don't have to pay for Opera. It's an adware application, which means that you have to look at a small adverting window. In Opera it's just a small window in the top right corner next to the toolbar, so it's really not that bad.
My knowledge on nano technology is very limited, but I just want congratulate the Danish scientist! It's great that we can keep up in this field considering that we are a relatively small country.
"There aremore than 400 such machines in operation in the world, and this is the ninth one installed in the United States. They are made in Canada and are used primarily to protect crops."
A study has been made concerning how electronic messages like SMS improves childrens' writing skills. All the abbreviation make people think about exactly what they write, i.e. the exact spelling of a particular word.
It says something of the importance of learning other languages and methods for writing. I write English as a second language, not so well, but I have learned a lot about writing and my own language (Danish) that way which is useful to many aspects of reading and writing.
That's because people (myself at least) like to say, "Wow, I have finished 100 pages of this" and actually see the finished pages physically. Electronic books isn't as good as ordinary books at this - they just print "100/340".
I agree. A device "should do one thing and do it well." But digital watches can actually be quite helpful if you need a stopwatch or something small little tool like that and you don't have a seperate stopwatch at your disposal.
I have had both digital and analog watches. What I have learned is that you get used to the two types. When switching between the two, however, some time is needed to "see" the clock in a right way.
It's been hard living with the "k" prefix in application names. And now it's going to be even harder living in this world with all these applications like JDictionary, JGraphpad, JDiskReport...
I think this boy should attend a sitting competition. The world record is 167 days of sitting - on a small platform without a Playstation or similar entertainment devices.
It says something about the importance of giving the end-users ready and easy-to-use software and games. The majority of users don't want to spend time downloading any new games and learning them as well.
Applications like Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player that already comes with Windows versions are also very popular, though they may not be among the best in their category.
We could make a function that is invoked when the Blue Screen Of Death is shown. Instead of a blue screen, it would display the Linux penguin, restart the computer, and install Linux...
"It is also probable that the company will be forced to reveal more information to its competitors about how its operating system interacts with others and with software applications."
Could this be the start of an open source Windows version?
I haven't read the whole discussion, so I'm not sure if it has been said already. Once I found a webpage for a Swedish LUG, I think, that hosted some 15 screenshots of famous Linux persons' desktops, including Brian Kernighan and Richard Stallman as far as I remember. If anyone can find it, please post it here.
Maybe some want to leave because they see American TV shows or movies and they think the whole continent is safe, nice, accepting, etc. Maybe if the Cuban govt. let the population see what the rest of the world is really like, they'd be less enthusiastic to leave Cuba.
I agree. But the Internet is available in schools and workplaces, from the article:
The internet should be for the common good, it says, pointing out that it will still be available in schools and workplaces.
Then all surfing, downloading etc. will be done in the school? Or do they also keep a constant eye on the students and workers there? Restriction may be a good thing, but they are not thinking realisticly about how much the media is influencing other non-american countries.

It's easy. Just look for glasses.

It reminds me of Knight Rider.

Check this screenshot for example.

I once tried SuSE Live (I think it was version 7.0, but I don't remember). It didn't work. That is my experience with Linux Live CD's :-)
