  1. Re:BSD license was always more permissive, so grea on GPL, Copyleft Use Declining Fast · · Score: 1

    Do the Google appliances use the code? If so, isn't that distribution? I am asking honestly as I do not know the answer.

    **WHOOOOSH** :)

  3. 3rd party large wallets on British Student Faces Extradition To US Over Copyright · · Score: 1

    What we need to happen is someone to build a site that has links that link to direct search requests on the major search engines pointing at the files in question. This will then get the big boys (big money) wrapped up in this horse-shit.

  4. Re:Language on Wind Power Firm Sees No Evidence of Hack · · Score: 2

    All of the Siemens PLC error codes come out in English for English interfaces. I have used them extensively.

  5. Re:What are the negative consequences? on Gosling Reacts To Apple's Java Deprecation · · Score: 1

    You do realize that the entire front-end of Oracle applications is written in Java? So no Java on the Mac in a corporation using Oracle, means no Mac sitting on that corporate desk..

  6. Re:For $6 a month on Microsoft Announces Web-Based Office365 · · Score: 1

    Why? Because we use a system that works for us? People that advocate others being put to death tend to not have a solid base with which to make their argument.

    Really? We use it EXTENSIVELY between SQL Server and Access backends feeding Excel workbooks, gathering data from our production floor and feeding it back to other systems. Reporting, ad-hoc queries for troubleshooting. Just about everyone I know in the industry personally uses VBA for a ton of stuff.

  8. Sooo on Sony HDTVs To Come With Google TV Interface · · Score: 1

    Is this going to include the new patent that allows me the consumer to PAY to skip commercials? Will Sony figure out a way to keep DVR's from skipping commercials so the GOOG gets its cut? If so this should be tagged DoNotWant!

  9. So before I on CES, Reporter Breaks "Unbreakable" Mobile Phone · · Score: 1

    RTFA to WTFV can anyone tell us how he breaks it?

  13. Re:moral decline on Russian Invasion of Georgia Might Jeopardize Space Station · · Score: 1

    Couldn't that be because of the end of WW2? Seems force caused the borders to be able to be open like that no?

  14. Re:How does Starbucks get away with charging? on AT&T Accidentally Provides Free Wi-Fi To All · · Score: 1

    Best one is the local starbucks here, the small book store right next door offers free wifi. So you can sit in starbucks and use the free wifi from next door instead. ;)

  15. Re:Let him know how you feel on Dodd's Filibuster Threat Stalls Wiretap Bill · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Done.
    Here is my message to him.

    Even though I am not in your constituency, I felt the need to write you and tell you how proud I am of how you stood up today in congress and demanded that the telecoms be held accountable for their actions.

    I only hope to be represented by someone of your stature in my state.

    Yes that made me feel even better about it.. sigh...

  18. 8.1 Billion with a B? on Nokia Buys Navteq for $8.1 Billion · · Score: 1

    Is anyone else getting completely blown away at the sheer value of some of this takeovers? The amounts of money flying around the world in these corporations is mind blowing.. Must just be my poor little ass being unable to fathom that much cash... :/

    I hate MS just as much as the next guy but that is one of the lamest excuses I have ever heard...

  20. Re:another of those iraq war side effects on Russia Claims Large Chunk of North Pole · · Score: 1

    Why should it be up to the U.S. to do anything about it? It really amazes me that people will bitch about U.S. involvement and then bitch when we DON'T get imvolved...

  23. Re:My tips on Google penalties on Businesses Scramble To Stay Out of Google Hell · · Score: 1

    I am on the front page for all of my target keywords and I never paid anyone a dime to get me there. It takes hard work and TIME to get there, most people I see are making the mistake of too many changes at once. With Google you are better off making a change, wait a month, make a change, wait a month etc etc.
