  1. Re:So in other words... on The Economist's Technology Predictions For 2008 · · Score: 1

    2007 *was* the year of the Linux desktop. Didn't you notice?

  2. Re:Reminds me of "We're from the government..." on Microsoft Hires Director of Linux Interoperability · · Score: 1

    They went with "Linux Interoperability" section because it sounded so much better than the "Linux Embrace and Strangle" section.

  3. Re:What is Ubuntu? on After Ubuntu, Windows Looks Increasingly Bad · · Score: 2

    I think, for many, the more accurate translation of "Ubuntu" is: "I can configure Debian, but I also have a life."

  4. Re:salt/wound? on Novell Dumps the Hula Project · · Score: 1

    Novell, Novell, now that rings a bell, I think they did open source 'til they started to smell.

  5. Re:Suggestion: Until Death of Creator on UK Copyright Extension Not Happening · · Score: 4, Insightful

    "You can make a record in 1955 and have been getting royalties... been living on that and suddenly they're gone." Maybe you could get of you're arse and do some work then? Just a suggestion ...

  6. Re:That's nice but... on Filling Up On Algae · · Score: 1

    Actually, the energy efficiency for photosynthesis of plants is only about 1.5% to possibly 2% for the best performers. Don't know about algae though. So your calculations are most likely an order of magnitude out. Photovoltaic cells are more eficient by far, but the energy is not as efficiently stored or transported as biodiesel.
