  1. Re:Dump kernel to serial printer on Linux Developers Consider On-Screen QR Codes For Kernel Panics · · Score: 1

    *cough* you can already do all this if you want.

    (just include your magic in the kdump init script / initrd to do with the dump information as you will)

    OK, So they have learned about Jack in these last 16 years... but they are still having some trouble with Shit.

  4. Re:informal poll on Linus Torvalds Suspends Key Linux Developer · · Score: 1

    There is no such thing. Linux is just an OS kernel. It may be a key part of what you consider an OS, but it's still just a part.

  5. please don't reinvent wheels on NASA To Catalog and Release Source Code For Over 1,000 Projects · · Score: 1

    GitLab is a thing, if you want your own GitHub stop building it from scratch and just use the real thing.

  6. Re:Grabs popcorn on Department of Transportation Makes Rear View Cameras Mandatory · · Score: 2

    The cameras are not supposed to be active while you're driving around.

    Unless you routinely come across people driving backwards down roadways, I don't think this will affect normal traffic at all - just watch out in parking lots etc.

  7. Re:Space travel on Gunshot Victims To Be Part of "Suspended Animation" Trials · · Score: 1

    We already know the -idea- works - cooling the body down extends the amount of working time on the table.

    It will be interesting if this technique works as they expect. I'd think the hardest part is keeping the blood viable once "replaced" and not causing problems during the swap due to chemistry changes (eg different/reduced energy/waste/oxygen exchange)

    Do the swap fast enough and that's not a problem - but try to do it too quickly and you're going to cause a lot of damage.

    Meanwhile, in reality, the administrators I know have to do more work than three of us and are held up to a higher standard. Better not make a mistake, or you're career is over!

  9. Re:PoE $0 D3 $60 + $40 on Diablo 3 Expansion Reaper of Souls Launches · · Score: 1

    So A is better than B, if you ignore the crippled engine problems? Good sell!

    Just what we need... airborne radioactive ash!

    That's not all that much. 10x10 would be 100...

  12. no, really? on KDE and Canonical Developers Disagree Over Display Server · · Score: 1, Funny

    Interesting how KDE and those responsible for Unity have differing perspectives... who would have thought?

  13. Re:Maybe there's also another reason? on Final Fantasy XIV Failed Due To Overly Detailed Flowerpots · · Score: 1

    I couldn't even figure out how to bring up a menu on that piece of shit. I had to use the task manager to quit, try (and fail) to find any useful documentation, and cancel my account.

    Approximation != guessing.

    We all love to hate when that happens!

  16. Re:In other words.... on Flies That Do Calculus With Their Wings · · Score: 1

    Calculus is not mimicry.

  17. Re:how calculus? on Flies That Do Calculus With Their Wings · · Score: 1

    What's not calculus about that? You approximate the result and further refine it with additional data/time. With even more practice, you certainly CAN see where it's going to land (barring interference by another force, such as wind).

    We are quite good at this. How do you think things like hitting moving targets with arrows happens?

  18. Re:how calculus? on Flies That Do Calculus With Their Wings · · Score: 1

    So, the fly has a biological PID controller?

    EL5 is, while supported, getting a bit old. Hell, EL7 is just around the corner!

    You clearly don't understand the lifecycle of a production OS.

    You don't have to.

    Just don't lock your implementation away and let people actually use it

    You didn't fix anything... it because it already said that in the prior sentence. You know what "fleece" means as a verb, right?
