  1. Re:Dear Sir... on Datamining the NSA · · Score: 1

    We are borg. As soon as we figure out your strange technological use of "game" instead of "gain", you will be assimilated.

  2. Re:"Through Social Engineering"? on Datamining the NSA · · Score: 1

    But Sir, you don't work for a multinational corporation, so your experience with IT best-practices means nothing to this government.

  3. IDE Integration on Problems With the Firefox Development Process · · Score: 1

    Well, I'm not convinced that MS get the good people. Have you seen some Windows apps!?! But IDE integration would certainly help. If the IDES could connect to various project sites and download the latest project templates, docs, etc., then it would really help people get started. KDevelop, for instance, comes with templates for everything from Embedded development in C to console games, to DCOP-based plugins for other KDE apps. If Mozilla and other projects provided templates for plugins, syntax highlighting files etc. for major IDEs, it would really boost development interest and speed. Wouldn't hurt if people started using Tom Lord's Arch more, too :)

  4. Exactly, just a mouse on Is Horse the New Mouse? · · Score: 1

    Yep. Nothing special about this at all. They can call it horse, or cart, or anything they want, but it's plainly a mouse. And I don't buy that extensor thing at all: my fingers rest quite happily on the mouse buttons, without any of the continual lifting of fingers they talk about.

    Maybe they just bought a crap mouse, and a assumed they were all like that, but I'm guessing this article is all about making someone cash :/

  5. Novell and GNOME on Bounties for Gnome Optimization · · Score: 1

    Well, the thing is that parts of Novell DEPEND on GNOME, since they now develop evolution etc. SuSE might use KDE, but not in such a core-business way. Personally, though, I wouldn't be investing in GNOME these days. Seems like it's going downhill to me, while KDE is improving in leaps and bounds.

    It's an XML file that you can extract urls from and feed to wget ;D

    I know! Remember how firewire took off when they renamed it to IEEE-139.. uhh whatever..? ;)
