  1. Re:Hmmm on Time To Rethink the School Desk? · · Score: 1

    Agree... even with nice chairs it will be depressing.

  2. Mmmmm why not... on Time To Rethink the School Desk? · · Score: 1

    why not rethink the entire educational system instead of changing desk... I mean... WT*

  3. Re:Once again a misleading story about Bing on Bing Gaining Market Share Faster · · Score: 1

    Because if I have 3 services and have... lets put a number 10% market share and then I unify all three and say about this new one: we are almost at %10 market share... it is a lie! yo are only regaining / recounting what you already have... speed is relative there, there is no strength in that, they are not gaining. They are regaining and marketing it as an achievement.

  4. Re:Once again a misleading story about Bing on Bing Gaining Market Share Faster · · Score: 1

    I was going to ask about that... growing from where? because people assumes Bing is new while in reality it is a replacement of Live so counting from zero is like a distorted point of view. This sounds like economy... after loosing 20% of something then gain 5% at fast peace and claim WE ARE GROWING! ... lame.

  5. Re:Different Approach on Software Piracy At the Workplace? · · Score: 1

    I agree... most managers see this as a money / time / resources issue so by proving that you will save them some bucks they will be more eager to listen. Sad but true.

  6. Re:Uploading a swf with a jpg extension? on Flash Vulnerability Found, Adobe Says No Fix Forthcoming · · Score: 1

    Yes, I was asking the same question and as Lobster said you can include headers in PHP, for example... but I would like to know if there is anything to do to validate these crafted image files because in that case it doesn't matter if you are using flash or not. Well, flash will make it easier to execute it from another domain.

  7. Re:Hoax on Possible Meteorite Leaves a Crater In Latvia · · Score: 1

    Good Lord! that's exactly what I needed to prove my six degree experiment. I was going to prove it early but you know, I've been abducted ever since I was an embryo.

  8. Looks like a fake on Possible Meteorite Leaves a Crater In Latvia · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I assume that if it is not a fake it would have made some noise to dig that crater. Plus the site is too clean in the surroundings.

  9. Re:Market share on YouTube Phasing Out Support For IE6 · · Score: 1

    Yeah, the problem is that in businesses a lot of computers are still using it. I know places where more than 50% of the machines are still using IE6. Microsoft is pushing a campaign to promote migration for all these scenarios. It it time to forget about IE6!

  10. For Ubuntu you can add T.E.G. on Great Games To Put On a Free PC? · · Score: 1

    You can add T.E.G. in Ubuntu... it is like Risk. I'm not sure if it's available in english.

  11. Re:Good Riddance on US No Longer the World's Internet Hub · · Score: 1

    "Besides, why should the US carry all the rest of the world's traffic?" Because of profit

  12. Re:Organization = disorganization? on Mozilla Unveils Aurora Concept Browser · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Yes, why to add all these effects and nice looking,sci-fi movie-like widgets and features if most users around the world do not know what bookmarks or tags are? We, technical people, are used to learn new stuff quick even if it is not 100% usefull. Mozilla needs to remember there is still a gap between technology and users. Internet is very young and there is a lor of people who only uses the address bar... that's all they need. I do understand all these are concepts but I'm not sure if all this "Minority Report" tools are the way to go. Usability is not fashion

  13. Re:Illegal? on HP Dishonors Warranty If You Load Linux · · Score: 1

    I will sell you a set of spoons. If they break withing the first year I will replace each one only if you use them to eat meat... if you use the spoons on ice cream warranty is over!! That means... Linux is sweet :D

  14. Re:Ohio vs New Mexico... on A Spaceport In Ohio? · · Score: 1

    Former Argentina's president Carlos Menem was going to do the same in the province of Cordoba (he even announced it on a speech)... I think he was drunk or something :D

    Maybe this is another "politicians school" thing they must do from time to time.

  15. Hahaahaha on Mozilla Developers Invited to Redmond · · Score: 1

    After the meeting, check for a chip in the back of their necks.

  16. Well... on Hawking Says Humans Must Go Into Space · · Score: 1

    So this means that if I do mess in my house, I don't clean the floor, wash things and don;t fix what is broken the solution is to leave it as it is and buy a new one? I agree with space exploration an living in other planets but is that the ultimate solution to it all? I think scientists should reconsider this idea about science as a saver. Smells like the bad side of religion.

  17. Wow... terrible, terrible, but lets do this on Proposal to Implant RFID Chips in Immigrants · · Score: 1

    ... I'm from latin america, I'm not living in the US even rhough I find this very, very concerning.

    Maybe it will be a good trade to play it this way... immigrants agree to use this stupid device if the president and all politicians use it and we can check using the Internet where they are. That way it would be fair... Politicians must be a model to society so this is not an exception :D

  18. They still not listen on Would You Pay 5 Cents For a Song? · · Score: 1

    Those plans work or may work for some countries but they still forget about two things 1- Third world countries will still find free alternatives. Payment methods and culture (or lack of culture) are a limit. Culturally talking this is partally influenced by first world countries. 2- More music for more people means more work and more production for the music industry since they will need to innovate faster and create more crappy (but over produced videos and marketing).

  19. Re:Let me guess on Costa Rica May Criminalize VoIP · · Score: 1

    Thats exactly the case. ICE (Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad) has a monopoly and controls the Internet connection. They offer VoIP so they want to get the most until the FTA starts. Anyway the country is fighting against the FTA but I think they should take it if the protect what they have and get a better deal.

  20. Re:Users definetly upset. on SCO Identifies EV1Servers as Linux Licensee · · Score: 1

    I don't think they can charge extra to customers like us... at leat not now when SCOs complains are not founded. Anyway... if they change their prices... a lot of customers will change hosting company... dont you think?
