  1. Yeah, ... and where do they get code from? --- Anyway, can't wait, ... so I am off surfing.

  2. grub on Stubborn Intel Graphics Bug Haunts Ubuntu 12.04 · · Score: 2

    I have Intel integrated graphics and I had similar problems, but following line into grub.conf at the end of kernel line fixed it: pcie_aspm=force i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1 i915.i915_enable_fbc=1

  3. WTF? on In UK, First "Anarchist's Cookbook" Downloaders' Convictions · · Score: 1

    This is ridiculous and obviously there is some paranoid agenda going on; and we are just days short of "finding" WMD in Iran, like they did find in Iraq. I hope someone convict George Bush and Tony Blair for actually using powers against its own nation?

  4. Re:Like ghosts, this is getting harder and harder. on Professor Says UFO Studies Should Be Taught At Universities · · Score: 1

    Reasonable-quality audio/video recording equipment is becoming nearly ubiquitous, being embedded in cell phones.

    Yet the only "footage" that is available is grainy and poor quality.

    As the quality and availability of audio/video recording equipment grows, one would expect the quality of "sighting" recordings to increase, but they aren't.

    I think that's very telling.

  5. Re:A good starting point on Learning and Maintaining a Large Inherited Codebase? · · Score: 1

    Try to single-step it in debugger from the beginning up to main loop.

    Agreed and good IDE and debugger is a "life saver"; however that does not mean we should not document the code.

  6. Ignorance on NASA Requests Help With Von Braun's Notes · · Score: 1

    Wernher von Braun, his mentor Herman Oberth, ... and nobody gives a fuck from where they really came from and that they were SS officers. What is actually more interesting that von Braun and also Oberth states really clearly that we have been helped by the people of other worlds in certain scientific fields. See also project Paperclip. Do not be ignorant.

  7. Of course they are testing. on NASA Tests New Moon Engine · · Score: 1

    I wonder how much testing they did for Apollo mission.

  8. Here we go again. on Adobe Building Zoetrope, a Web "Time Machine" · · Score: 1

    Probably there are just stored images in svn or something. However great use of powerful tools like cvs, svn, git. I would not be surprised if Apple would do something like this and include it into the Mac OS; following Windows announcement that they developed new technology for browsing website through time, while there would already working alpha, beta in Linux.

  9. For better future... on A DIYer's Quick Guide To Cheap Wireless Extension · · Score: 1

    Great stuff! Keep it going!

  10. It was about time. on Buses as Mobile Sensing Platforms? · · Score: 1

    The biggest "hoax" or whatever you call it is that you can buy a car which can go faster than maximum speed limit and pay extra taxes and also for speeding violations. Just think about it how much money could be saved if cars could only have 100 HP. However one could wonder and say, well you can still buy a knife and kill, ... well you will not buy a bigger knife if you do not need it, but you will buy a bigger/faster car because of you could show off and just one day by "accident" kill few people also.
