  1. Does it work on petrol ? on Military Develops "Green" Cleaners For Terrorist Attack Sites · · Score: 1

    That may be helpful for BP then ...

  2. First after Free Electron LAser Hamburg (FLASH) on World's First X-Ray Laser Goes Live · · Score: 1

    meaning, it's the second !

  3. Hubble successor ?? on NASA Unveils Hubble's Successor · · Score: 1

    I thought hubble was extremely expensive and outperformed by a set of smaller and far cheaper telescops organized let's say on a circle each 30 degree (this is the idea) this way a better image (than with hubble) can be recomposed for less money.

  4. and about the car ... on Hans Reiser to Sell Company · · Score: 1

    Does he sell his car too ? How much kilometers ?

  5. EU law has been applied then ! on The Dutch Kill Analog TV Nationwide · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Because EU wrote a law saying that each member state has to use terrestrial digital Tv before a date (2010 ???) and 5 years after the launch of the digital TV (TNT in France) analogic has to be switched off. So I guess this is what happened here.

  13. Open Docuemtn Format Plugin for Microsoft Office on Easing Compatibility Between OpenOffice, MS Office · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Does anybody talk here about OpenOpenOffice ? http://o3.phase-n.com/ They are still promising a release without giving us anything to eat but anyway, be aware that one day, it will be really easy for everybody to switch between all office suite. Manu

  14. not really recent new isn't it ? on French Town Tests Cashless Society · · Score: 1, Redundant

  15. Finally we've win !!! Thanks to the 680/732 deputy on EU Says No To Software Patents · · Score: 1

    Thanks to the 680/732 deputies that were present and voted against software patents ! I was expecting an amended vote, but this choice is good too (maybe not the better choice, I don't care, OSS is here and the lobbying and sponsor of m$ for the European council has been defeated !) Thank you European Parliament !

  16. Advertisement violates my freedom of thinking on Does Adblock Violate A Social Contract? · · Score: 1

    Advertisement is a weapon, (like the 'persuaders' in Syndicate) which oblige you to think one way.

    RIAA , MPAA , Microsoft and the DRM consortium wants people paying for the products they do, products that we could get for free before (a simple movie on TV for instance), AdBlock is an answer, we want to keep our freedom and get more, not being obliged to pay even more to keep it. Say NO to DRM, to advertisement to everything which don't let you do the choice, we want a sane life, in a sane world.

  17. Good choice on Paris Hilton Recruited to Publicize Linux · · Score: 2, Funny

    The major criteria was : somebody who has to be really "open" :-D

  19. Re:EU Icon? on BSA Wants EU Open Standard Policy Reconsidered · · Score: 1

    I agree with you.
    But the stars really comes from this icon. That doesn't mean anything else for me, it's just a fact in the history.

  21. I don't believe this story on A Car With A Mind Of Its Own · · Score: 1

    I own a renault with same motor+electronic system than the velsatis and personnaly I can't believe that this guy don't have tried to play (successfully !) with the police as for 2 years now a lot of automatic radars (detect your speed + take a shot of you and your car) appear on the french roads which send directly your photo to the police. The french driver license a 12 points and you lose a certain amount of point when you do something wrong. So what a good idea if you want to override speed limit legally !
