  1. Re:missing.... on Swedish Court Finalizes Jail Sentence For Pirate Bay Co-Founder · · Score: 1

    I've stayed in Cambodia for about 3+ months, and it's a blast, most likely country I would live if I had the money and a big problem with the law. You can also get Cambodian citizenship for $20-25k in under-the-table -deal, and before that a year long visa is just $250-$275 and nothing else. But how do you get missing there? It's not like there's anybody you could ask if xxx is "really missing" or just having his daily dose of almost-free alcohol.

  2. Like AdSense on Google+ Account Suspensions Over ToS Drawing Fire · · Score: 1

    So this is just like they've been locking up AdSense accounts, with no reason and no information given, with (sometimes lots of) money on them? Just a lot less serious.

    Never bet against human stupidity.

  4. Re:By coincidence... on Germany To End Nuclear Power By 2022 · · Score: 1

    Ok let's say you're correct. Now instead of selling the green nuclear power to another countries, others have to yank up the coal power and destroy the air for all of us? Thanks.

    Bye bye US, hello outside of the US?

  6. 2015 The year of the linux desktop? on Ubuntu Aims For 200 Million Users In Four Years · · Score: 1

    To be serious, my work required a Windows for the last 5-6 years. I just installed Ubuntu about a month ago and the progress done during those years has been amazing, everything worked out of the box, and worked better than on Windows.

    Unity is pretty bad and Gnome3 wasn't working for me, but I just came back to Gnome2 and it's been working really nice. I have everything I need on my tiny desktop and no stupid bugs. Only problem was with my second monitor that I couldn't get working in other than mirror mode. I had Xinerama a bazillion years ago and could make it work with every setup, but now that I didn't have to touch the config files to make everything work, I didn't want to.

    But 200M users? Not very likely

  7. Different timezone on See The Supermoon Tonight · · Score: 1

    The moon has been up there for 8 hours already here in Thailand.. I guess it did look kinda biggish. How much (%) is the difference of the full moon between now and a month (or a year) ago, I'd like to know if my big moon sighting was confirmation bias or is it really noticeable difference.

  8. Re:Well no shit on Piracy In Developing Countries Driven By High Prices · · Score: 1

    Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville also have a place called Rogue. You take your iPod/Zune/Memory stick there, check some boxes what albums/movies/tv-series you want and come back after an hour to get your player filled with music and videos for a few dollars.

    Great place to visit though.

  9. Re:Going to be a long time unfortunately on Google Cars Drive Themselves, In Traffic · · Score: 1

    Sadly it's the truth, but If humanity was this retarded hundreds of years ago, there would be no doctors. Yeah, they save a huge amount of lives, but with the same logic they should be jailed every time there's someone they couldn't save.

  12. Re:have we see the death of RPN? on Casio Unveils New Color Screen Graphing Calculator · · Score: 1

    Automatic transmission doesn't have all the information the driver has. It doesn't know you're coming to a corner and shouldn't waste time changing gears as you're going to brake in a half a second. It doesn't know there's a uphill ahead and you're going to need that extra torque, so it might change to a higher gear just to change back very soon.

  13. Re:Too bad the emotiv SDK costs $10,000 on How To Index and Search a Video By Emotion · · Score: 1

    Wow. Doing some face recognition and other image recognition stuff lately, I left this article open for the night as I was probably going to spend some time with it later. Not gonna happen now.

  14. Re:how come on Smart Trash Carts Tell If You Haven't Been Recycling · · Score: 1
    TFS continues:

    supervisor will go through your can looking for recyclables. From the article: "Trash carts containing more than 10 percent recyclable material could lead to a $100 fine,

    so if you're not mixing recyclables with the waste, you won't get fined.

  15. The Social Network movie on Facebook Wants Ownership Case Thrown Out · · Score: 1

    I knew there had to be a twist in the movie, the trailer was so boring. Maybe Zuckerberg will even make it a action movie after losing everything. I searched IMDb for "Facebook" and the first result was Disaster Movie. That's gotta be a good sign...

  16. More reasons not to have a phone with locked down on 36-Hour Lemmings Port Gets Sony Cease and Desist · · Score: 0, Troll

    More reasons not to have a phone with locked down software market. If some software gets pulled because of some retarded laws in USA, I'll just download it from somewhere else to my Android. With iPhone I get screwed also, even though I'm pretty much exactly on the other side of the planet.

  19. Freedos in Thailand on Asus Budget Ultraportable Notebook Sold Sans OS · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Here in Thailand, or at least in Chiang Mai, most of the computers and laptops I've seen come with FreeDOS preinstalled. If you don't want to install an OS yourself (and don''t prefer Freedos ;) you can just leave the new computer to the shop and pick it up with a OS of your choice a few hours later for a dollar or two extra install fee + price of the OS.

  20. Re:Buzzkill on Sprint's $199 HTC EVO 4G Gets Release Date of June 4 · · Score: 3, Informative

    Go ask them how many buy $600 smart phones without a contract rather than $100 phones with a contract.

    At least in Finland, most of the people. Why would you want to buy a more expensive (in the end) locked down phone than cheaper phone and freedom to go with any operator? (or change operator after 6 months or change phone whenever you want). I've seen a few friends buy a phone with contract but that's usually a combination of poorness and lower education.
