    the first edition was very solid and taught me alot! especially about OO (or lack of it) in php5

  7. cool on Voyager 2 Set to Reach Termination Shock · · Score: 3, Interesting

    but can someone describe in layman's term what will that mean for the probe (if anything), will it change course/direction? can this negatively affect the mission/spacecraft itself?

    i dont know what would be worse in your scenario:

    *having your bio energy harvested to power servers (a geeks dream?)

  14. Re:This explains a part of it (memory fragmenting) on Comparing Memory Usage of Firefox 2 vs 3 · · Score: 1

    pitty opera doesn't have a firebug type plugin (for javascript debugging)

    then i would have no need for firefox at all during the development stage

    right now i have firefox open and its using 170MB ram (which is not too bad, ive seen worse :(, and is possibly due to all the dev extensions i have) but compare that to a vmware images i have running now ( windows xp and suse10.3) both are running comfortably with 120MB allocated RAM each

  15. not to point out the obvious on Comparing Memory Usage of Firefox 2 vs 3 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    firefox 3 doesn't have any plugins yet, last i checked it was plugin writers who were blamed for all the memory issues by Mozilla

    btw i did same test in IE7 and Opera9 and only got 30-40MB usage

  16. Re:great! on Firefox 3 Beta 1 Review · · Score: 1

    nice, i will try it once its out, i still believe Mozilla are a bunch of nice people

    tho i believe ALOT of money corrupts even the best of intentions, at 50million+ i hope they hired the best and the brightest to fix issues that (it hurts to say this) even lesser browsers like IE7 don't suffer from

  17. great! on Firefox 3 Beta 1 Review · · Score: 0, Flamebait

  24. hmm on Ballmer Calls Android a "Press Release" · · Score: 0, Troll

    im afraid for once i have to agree with balmer :(

    android is in the realm of vapourware now

    did anyone notice google stocks dived after announcements of their facebook killer "open social" and the much buzzed about gphone (which turned out not to be a phone at all!) "android", investors must realise at some stage that google is a marketing company and their market cap is build on clever hype generation
