  1. Re:how? on Sony Blu-ray Media Center · · Score: 1

    Right, 4 AA's only means that the keyboard uses 6 V (DC) and doesn't imply anything about current (A).

  2. Re:No thanks on Sony Blu-ray Media Center · · Score: 1

    Sony has historically failed when it came to new formats.

  3. Re:Oh, no, that's not the problem. on Techies Must Educate Governments · · Score: 1

    That's exactly why I'm not a Libertarian. They have good ideas, but they don't feel that corporate regulations are helpful.

    A change

    And anyone who's cool
    I hate the office
    I hate the Quad
    Don't wanna learn nothing
    I want to be a slob

    It's cool to hate

    I don't like nothing and I like that fine

    Yeah I hate everything
    I even hate you too
    So fuck you

    I'm always thinking bad
    I never have nothing good to say
    I'd rather tear things down
    Than build them up
    It's easier that way
    I hate the jocks

    And Muscle T's
    I'm only happy when I'm in my misery

  6. Re:Next XBox name proposal. on Microsoft Confirms Work Begun on Next Xbox · · Score: 1

    Just like the Xbox 360 should have been called Xbox 2pi, you've got a good pun there.

  7. Re:What Organization? on International Music Industry Amps Up Anti-P2P War · · Score: 1

    The artists eventually die or stop publishing good music, so they can replace the artists instead and offer, I dunno, new music? What a concept!

  8. Re:Marketer alert? on KOffice 1.6 Released · · Score: 1

    Qt 3.x (which KOffice 1.x and KDE 3.x are based on) is only free software for *nix. The versions for Windows and Mac OS X are only available as commercial software.

    Qt 4.x changed that by also making available the free software version for Windows and OS X, but KOffice won't be using that until 2.x.

    Also, commercial licences for Qt are kinda pricey for a small OSS project like Kexi.

  9. Re: Adobe is screwed? Ha. on Acrobat-killer Submitted to Standards Body · · Score: 1

    Microsoft made InDesign?

    Sorry, but Adobe, Quark, and a couple other companies are the big players when it comes to publishing, and Microsoft doesn't come close to offering anything helpful in that department.

  10. Re:Kerning on KOffice 1.6 Released · · Score: 4, Informative

    I'm pretty sure that's a Qt problem that's fixed in Qt 4 (and thus KOffice 2.0 when that's released).

  11. Re:I'm lovin' it! on McDonalds Japan Distributes Infected MP3 Players · · Score: 1

    You could have said it was the shit, but that slang doesn't seem to be understood by everyone (what, you mean it's shitty?).

    So I guess Japanese people can make typos after all. Hmm...

    Indeed. And I thought that modern computer terms were the same in all languages (just spelt differently).

    The day Microsoft Windows supports more architectures than x86 is the day RMS admits that software patents are a good idea.

    NTFS gets fragmented for one, so there's a big problem. I don't know if it's journaled either.

    Subpixel renderring is only for LCDs, so that would have to be worked around.

  20. Re:Summary... on Should the GPL be Used as a Click-Wrap? · · Score: 1

    Someone needs to talk to Apple then because their standard .pkg installer provides an API to show an EULA for the user to agree to. Whenever I install free software on a Mac, I chortle when I see that I need to "accept the terms of the GPL" just to use the program when I know that's not true.

    At least the licence is headed with "GNU General Public License" so I don't actually have to read it for the millionth time.

  21. Re:On getting a Mac instead.... on Vista Licenses Limit OS Transfers, Ban VM Use · · Score: 1

    If you know how to take apart iMacs and other Macs, you have no problem. Of course, the only people who seem to know how are ACDT's and ACPT's considering you usually need the classified manual. :(

    Ever tried compiling Firefox from source? I hope you have a good movie you want to watch while you wait. :D

  23. Re:Just move it to non-free? on IceWeasel — Why Closed Source Wins · · Score: 1

    The Debian Security team doesn't provide patches for contrib and non-free packages, so that'd defeat the whole purpose of putting it there.

    We should probably continue the tree analogy. Branch sounds too official, so it'd have to be something else. Hmm...
