  1. Secrecy as a Strategy on Analysts Are Seeking Guidance From Google · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I think the day Google doesn't have a certain secrecy around them, they will loose a lot of their appeal.

  2. How about linux on new computers? on Ten Reasons to Buy Windows Vista · · Score: 2, Insightful
    Since Vista will likely ship on every new computer anyone buys, I don't see that being a major roadblock.


    Well, considering there are more and more new computers being shipped with Linux, and how far away Vista's release is, maybe this isn't 100% accurate.
  3. Article in spanish on Why Don't You Sleep On It? · · Score: 1

    Here is a shorter version of the article in Spanish.
    Aca tienen una version mas resumida en español.

  4. Also in Germany on Google Stands Ground on Google.cn · · Score: 2, Informative

    Everybody should note that they also block search terms in Germnay and France.

  5. Stop fighting technology and USE IT on Tension Between Record Labels And Digital Radio · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I think they should stop fighting technology and start using it as a buisness model...

  6. Team work on Oracle and Sun Team Up to Provide .NET Alternative · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Big names just keep on teaming up to beat down Microsoft.
    How long will they be able to resist this?

    Yeah, and collaborate for free with the marketing machin... wait... did you say FREE?

  8. Not that insecure on WINE Still Vulnerable to WMF Exploit · · Score: 1

    Considering wine runs on top of Linux, as long as you don't play with knives (AKA run things as root), this shouldn't be a problem.
    Well, unless you are worried about you're fake windows...

  9. A lot of hate-mail on National Archives' Digital Woes · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    100 million hate-emails is a lot of hate mail.
    It is all hate mail, right?

  10. OS and Browser stats on Google Zeitgeist '05 · · Score: 1

    Too bad they don't show OS and Browser stats like the good all days.

  11. MS gets wise on Microsoft Ends IE for Mac · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    Good thing they're recognizing that there are much better products then theirs

  12. Or maybe it's not on Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Unrelated to Typing? · · Score: 1

    Well I'm not overweight, pregnant or seem to have genetic predisposition and still have it.
    And as a programmer I spend all day typing.
    Coincidence?

  13. Celebs on The Year in Ideas · · Score: 5, Interesting

    You can anti-paparazzi flash be a GREAT idea.
    It only applies to 0.00001% of the worlds population...

  14. Re:Complaint #1 on OpenOffice Illustrates Open Source's Limitations? · · Score: 1

    Yes, that does annoy me, But is that proof that open source just can't produce good enough software?

  15. How about gnome? on OpenOffice Illustrates Open Source's Limitations? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Gnome es open source. And even though it's not perfect, I have 20 people using it on a daily basis at the office with no complaints.
    I think that it makes absolutely no sense to project open office on all open source.

  16. AOL != Mozilla Foundation on Microsoft to Buy Stake in AOL · · Score: 4, Insightful

    I do not see how MS buying AOL stock is going to change ANYTHING at all in the Mozilla Foundation.
    They are self-sufficient, independent and have been since at least the start of FireFox.
    I think there are more programmers working in google then in AOL.

  17. Exagerated on Blocking a Nation's IP Space · · Score: 1

    I think blocking an entire country is a bit much, and a bit to mucho discrimination for the globalized world that we live in right now...

  18. Linux on Google Releases GDS 2.0 · · Score: 1

    When can we expect a Linux version?
    I understand the market share of Windows vs. Linux, but it would really make a statement if they would implement it on Linux

  19. Re:.m would be even better on Mobile Top Level Domain Gets ICANN Nod · · Score: 1

    Well, Spain's TLD is ".es", Argentina's ".ar", UK's is ".uk"

    Think that 2 letter TLDs are ok

  20. Re:WWW on EU Domain Registries & ICANN · · Score: 1

    It's never going to be truly global unless you share the control...

  21. WWW on EU Domain Registries & ICANN · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Wasn't this suppose to be the "WORLD Wide Web"?
    I think someone lost sight of what they were doing...

  22. Ubuntu on Novell Linux Desktop 9 Vs. Redhat Enterprise WS? · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    I know this wasnt one of your options, but I have implemented Ubuntu very well with a very good reception from non-tech users.

  23. Re:PHP on Nvu 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Yes, he has been claiming this, altough the main page does kinda say:

    "Finally! A complete Web Authoring System for Linux Desktop users as well as Microsoft Windows and Macintosh users to rival programs like FrontPage and Dreamweaver"

    Still, just to be able to OPEN a PHP file in linux would be a very big step forward.

  24. PHP on Nvu 1.0 Released · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Now, if only Glazman would give up fighting against PHP and make is useable enough for us web developers. (You can't open PHP files in Linux unless you do it VIA FTP or you stand on your left foot while holding your nose)
    Although for those who still only develope plain HTML it's a great app.

  25. MS Office on KOffice 1.4 Released · · Score: 5, Funny

    Yay!
    Now we only have to wait til 2020 for MS to release MS Office with support for Oasis, que it's compatibility all around us!
