  1. Opposite Perspective on Are Web Firms Giving in to China? · · Score: 1

    I don't want to sound like I'm against democracy, but can't anyone here see it from the other perspective? You could argue that way too many companies are messing up the working government system in China and that it's awful that they appease the US's expectations of democracy so much. If I were the Chinese government, I'd have the same complaints about these companies, but going in the other direction.

  2. Lower TCO on Second Life Native Linux client Released · · Score: 2, Funny

    This eliminates some of the TCO of this line of work.

  3. Re:Obvious on Apple Gifts Top WebKit Contributors with MacBooks · · Score: 1

    I believe if Apple really wanted to do something, they should compensate every person who did good work for them. That would be fair.

    No, that would be employment.

    What's unfair about employment? (I suppose there's a valid Marxist answer to this, but I'm guessing that's not what you were thinking.)
  4. Re:I don't get it. on Shark 6th Sense Related to Human Evolution? · · Score: 1

    My point isn't to try and start a flame war...
    Oops.

  5. lufthansa already does that on FCC to Allow Wireless Access on Planes · · Score: 1

    I tried out a wireless internet connection on a Lufthansa flight a year ago. Has the FCC been preventing this in America?

  6. Re:Welcome to capitalism on HIV Vaccine · · Score: 1

    "No offense to university people, but universities are horribly inefficient places for real world type of work." and now a quote from the article: "Wei Lu, Jean-Marie Andrieu, and colleagues at the University of Paris in France and Pernambuco Federal University in Recife, Brazil, tested the vaccine..." Looks to me like this is an example of a university project.
