  1. Re:Visual Studio replacement on Linux on What Tools Do FLOSS Developers Need? · · Score: 1

    This is very true for earlier versions of eclipse. It was slow, crashed all the time, and hung up for no apparent reason. On top of that its their plugin manager was beyond subpar. But recent releases seem to fix most (if not all) of the serious problems I saw and its very usable now. But as always the more ram you through at a java program the better it runs and im using 4 gigs which I think probably makes a big difference too.

  2. Re:May I be the first to say... on Guitar, Studio Wizard Les Paul Dies At 94 · · Score: 1

    Sometimes, his main guitar was some sort of archtop. I remember seeing an interview with him talking about how people thought he was stuck up for playing a hollow body guitar in rock and roll. I also think he played some strats.

  3. This is stupid on Real-World Consequences of Social Networking Posts · · Score: 5, Insightful

    I dont blame the lady for complaining. Mold is dangerous stuff and a lot of landlords dont care. My sister bought a house with undisclosed mold (illegal here in maryland) and it looks like the realitor is going to get away with it because shes a teacher who just invested her money into a house so she can not afford legal fees.These are sketchy people and deserve to be put in a bad light.

    I saw Episode 1 when I was 12. Besides the awesome lightsaber fight at the end. I found it quite boring. Even now I still can not get through it.

    how many Olympic athletes are children of former Olympic athletes?)

    A lot actually... especially when it comes to running and such. Of course there are times when the parents did not compete because maybe they held no interest and never got into the sport and such, but to even come close to getting to the Olympic level you need to very lucky with your genetics.

  8. Re:Rights not online on Facebook Photos Land Eden Prairie Kids in Trouble · · Score: 1

    Watch out, you are correct. I remember for the my first two years of high school they banned water and water bottles in the school (other than lunch) because a kid put vodka in one. I had to get a frickin doctors note to carry around a water bottle with me when I was sick (and since I was an athlete).

    Well fine. If you want to say that for God, how would it be without God then. You say its an infinite loop to explain God well its the same for explaining the universe. How did all this mass come into existence anyway...

  10. Re:Bullshit on NCAA Puts Severe Limits On Sport Event Blogging · · Score: 1

    Wow man, just because you don't enjoy watching (or playing sports) doesn't mean that other people don't. Everyone has different types of entertainment that they enjoy, im sure people think the same way about you blowing 15$ a month of world of warcraft or spending hundreds of $ on your nth computer.

  11. Re:No picture? on Amazon's Ebook The Future of Reading? · · Score: 1

    hey need to hire Apple iPod team immediately. Why include keyboard? Why whitish colour close to beige? Why not a very very simple thing which shows the content only with back forward at edges? Why audio? I guessing because its not real at all. If amazon was going to release hardware, it would at least be pleasant on the eyes. Either way that thing must be old since it has tape gunk all over the side of it. Also, they would make it a shit load lighter.

  19. Re:didn't openbsd do the same thing in reverse? on Theo de Raadt On Relicensing BSD Code · · Score: 1

    well for your information I was not confusing distros with forks. If I was I would not have said distro, I would have said fork. The thing is, is that BSD is not just a kernel linux is. So I guess I understand if my analogy does not completely fit, but the point i was trying to show was that there are different linux distros because they try to accomplish different goals. Well guess what, there are different bsd forks for the same reason.

  20. Re:didn't openbsd do the same thing in reverse? on Theo de Raadt On Relicensing BSD Code · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You can't be serious. Another fork of BSD? I mean there are only 4 widely recognised free forks out there, plus lots more that may not be open, not recognizable as BSD, or not significant... Actually I have the feeling that you are a secret Linux agent, trying to splinter the forces of BSD. Yes, that would make sense.

    Perheaps the BSD crowd should do some soul-searching and ponder why there are four forks, each maintained by a crew which appears to be violently hostile to all the others (not to mention all "outsiders" and "interlopers", such as those building other Unix-like operating systems, say, Linux).

    Yes, because there is only one distro of linux out there...
