  1. Hollywood = garbage or is it Hollywood == garbage? on Profitmon Catches The Dollars · · Score: 1

    I just hope that the story lines in general don't get 'dumbed down' for a more 'general' audience (and by general I actually mean stupid) the same way Hollywood films have

    most Hollywood films these days are complete garbage because they're so formulaic (or is it the pirate terrorists ?I can never remember) i.e. bad guy fights good guy, good guy suffers humiliating defeat, good guy comes back anew and pounds bad guys ass, the end

    most Anime seems to have pretty good story lines (or in some cases ones that are so complicated that your left scratching your head wondering what the hell went on)

    after just finishing watching ghost in the shell stand alone complex I have to say it beats the pants off of anything I've seen from Hollywood recently Lord of the Rings is probably the only exception I'd make to that, as the CG didn't look mostly fake or overdone like some other films I could probably mention

    I'd just wish they'd bring Adult Swim back to the UK

    go .... speed ... RACER
  2. It's Free on Linux Feels Growing Pains · · Score: 1
    1. it's Free!!

    2. it's getting better every day as developers push more and more features that people want

    3. did I mention it's free?

    4. Profit!!

    kind of reminds me of the story of the tortoise and the hare (or was it a turtle? I can never remember). perhaps that should be the tux and the hare

  3. initiatives on Attack of the Corporate Weasel Words · · Score: 1

    here's a good one from the British government let's introduce a packet of measures and a range of initiatives

  4. Re:OT:Re:Oh my sweet lord, when will the madness e on Microsoft's 911 Patent · · Score: 1

    perhaps its a British / American thing over here in the UK we spell it as "Ridiculous" which is the correct spelling for the UK perhaps it's different for America (similar to color and colour)

  5. KMDI? on Free IDE Gambas Reaches 1.0 · · Score: 1

    I've found gambas to be pretty useful for prototyping something quickly, especially with the auto completion. If you want the interface to be an MDI I'd imagine that it should be fairly easy to do this as I believe the IDE for gambas is actually written in gambas. I think one of the problems at the moment is that the gambas component that allows access to the QT Workspace control is a bit buggy Although if someone could write a gambas component for KMDI http://web.tiscali.it/andreabergia/kmditutorial.ht ml this would allow the use of an interface similar to that of kdevelop
