  1. Re:one of the things i would like to see is with on How to Build a Better Browser · · Score: 1

    "I can tell you that's not going to happen. IE's rendering engine is buggy, quirky, broken."

    Wha? IE does have MAJOR security problems but its rendering engine is unsurpassed. Just look at this previous post on /.

    This is one area firefox and mozilla need to improve. I want a "render by any means" browser.

  2. Re:PR on President Bush's Money For Space Cometh · · Score: 1

    many second term presidents feel the need to leave a legacy. This may be his attempt at that legacy. (as if massive debt wasn't already enough, not to mention a war) Im sorry, Im slanted... I don't like the guy ;)

  3. She's bilingual and can feed the kittens! but... on Too Many Computers Hurt Learning · · Score: 2, Insightful

    " Just look at the performance of the average student in math without a calculator"

    This might be because math is hard for the "average" student. Computers are definalty not a hindrance.

  5. Re:Multitasking is harmful for Most kids. on Too Many Computers Hurt Learning · · Score: 1

    "The problem with kids with computers is that they are used both for entertainment and work at the same time. Writing a paper with IM on browsing the internet for sources and to keep tabs your favorite pop star."

    Not just kids. Most adults at work seem unable to focus on work. ESPN, Yahoo... We have a nice long list of sites and ports we block at work to deal with this problem.

    My girlfriend always fusses at me because Im never on IM. It's because when Im on a computer, Im working - not chatting. When I want to relax, computers are not exactly where I go. (Present company excluded :)

  6. PR on President Bush's Money For Space Cometh · · Score: 1, Interesting

    This is a great PR move for Bush. He is trying to appeal to the heartland by ushering in the "good ole days" of Nasa funded space exploration.

    that whole thing? Thats really damn funny. I love those books! I've read the whole trilogy twice. I can't wait for the movie.

    woah! so much anger about this holiday. Be happy if you get off work and just eat some food. Maybe do it with family... or do it with slashdot.

    BTW, I feel like Im part of the most hated social group on /. Im a southern american. Thank god Im not republican, then it would really be the end of me.
