I would like the damn thing to be installable on my Mac Mini 2011 (the 5.2 model with the Radeon chip in it). Something no currecnt distro manages.

I am deeply disappointed. I have not even been able to make this install on my machine (though this is a MacMini5.2 so kind of a harder target than usual old style BIOS setups, and it has hybrid...
Metro Apps will _NOT_ be programmed in a JavaScript+HTML5 exclusive cocktail. I don't know how this rumour started nor why people rattle it off as a reply like sheep as basic research would have...
first this is a short demo of a very early stage of a possible user interface. Microsoft has made major changes before and dropped features prior to release. Till the beta is out I doubt we can say...
The bufferbloat guys are working on a tweaked version of openwrt for the netgeat wndr3700v2.
So this looks like a router which will be well supported, even after netgear EOLs it and can be...
I'd prefer a promise to never again sue homebrew hackers like geohot and to work transparently and effectively on fixing their obvious security deficiencies... but I realize that is never going to...
What I like about the Google Music approach from what I have seen so far is that rather than worry about how much space I use, it counts items. In theory I hope this means I can upload my FLACs...
That seems to require me having anything to leave in a will.. If I did perhaps, but something like Project Cauă seems deserving. Helps Open Source, gets internet to the poorer parts of Brazil and...
I tend to prefer nettop type machines and luckily these are in the pipeline for ChromeOS.
I am fairly excited about the concept, I think it is a great play for enterprises. If we are going to...
watch the show in the intended sequence to enjoy the movie. I bought every season on DVD the moment they came out, I loved the show growing up.
If you like The X-Files, try looking at Twin Peaks....
Actually 3 movies and at least 2 miniseries.. Javier as Roland, a good actor but he just doesn't look like Roland to me.
Regardless the original books are amongst my favorites. I still have not...
And yet with the ever increasing 2.6.x releases you had companies claiming to ship 2.6 kernels, but being 7 years behind.
Aside that we are now very far from the 2.6 kernel released many years...
Linus lies, there is something huge in 3.0. They finally fixed that annoying kswapd taking 100% CPU and making the machine unusable for up to double digit minutes issue.
I, for one, welcome my...
The more I think about it, the more I think Google are right on target with ChromeOS. Transitioning OSes is so painful that many companies are still on Windows XP. If you are going to switch, switch...
Steven Erikson's Malazan series. It would be the most epic set of movies ever produced but it would require a production scale well above the lotr movies.
CentOS is likely the most used platform for webhosting. It makes sense for them to support this to allow such companies to consolidate their infrastructure on Windows servers without losing the...
The latest Narnia tripe.. The movie as such as beautiful visually but the story is so thinly veiled catholic allegory and illogical I was unable to properly enjoy it. C.S. Lewis was a talentless...
I read 1984 once every few years, it is for my money one of the best books ever written.
His Dark Materials is also one of my favorites, though I find the sections criticizing religion some what...
I would be far less worried about Skype being owned by Microsoft than by Facebook who were also mentioned as potential buyers. I see Facebook having more use for Skype though.
At any rate I expect...
I would like to apply for Ubuntu membership.

Thank you for your consideration.
This is how computing should be. Plug in and use, low power, no moving parts. The ARM11 processor isn't exactly a high performer but with advancements made Intel, AMD and ARM in a few years it would...
People seem to speak of Mono as departed.
Yet nothing prevents parts of the Mono developers affected by the downsizing from say starting a company around development of the code. Such an effort...
700 to 800 people will lose their livelihood in this move. The focus and joy displayed over the 30ish person Mono team being downsized is opportunistic and despicable.

I have to ask, does it appear to have been subjected to whipping?
You are actually happy to hear that Open Source contributors are losing their jobs in a still uncertain economy.. wow, that is.. horrible.
