There are doubts about how open this project will be. I share that concern. But, I also give the guy credit for making the project at all. Maybe it will be more closed than I would like. If the project is a success and…
There is very little reason to dread this move. I am not sure I like Unity yet, but I applaud Ubuntu for thinking outside the box. If you install Ubuntu 11.04 and want the old user interface, you can pretty much get it.…
There are a couple of different problems here. RedHat is actually pretty good in that they only include open software in their distribution. I, and many others, would not trust the OS nearly as much if they included…
Enough people care about the software being open that this project will have a good market, if it produces a useful product. I tried Skype several years ago, but I never felt comfortable using it. With proprietary…
Howdy, I installed Plan 9 several years ago(close to 10, if I remember correctly). I thought it was interesting, but it had a few problems. 1. It was too hard to install. I figured it out, but it was difficult enough…
I don't know about accessing OLAP databases, but it seems like a bad idea, anyway. The programmability of OpenOffice is quite powerful and workflows can and are automated with it. Visual Studio is not bad for people…
I demonstrate no such thing. It may be true that a better example of an embedded video element would show why it is a bad idea. I am open to trying other examples of properly coded video elements. My point was that the…
A clean browser would not address the problem. I think it is insane to browse with javascript, once you understand how it works. You are essentially letting random people run their code on your machine. How could that…
The author demonstrated why Firefox, et al, made the correct choice on his example page. I visited his page using Firefox and the video would not play. My guess is that you need javascript turned on to play the videos…
Why would a person use this instead of FreeNX. FreeNX seemed to work for me. The thing missing was a open source NX client. I see there is a QT one now, but I have not tried it yet.
To: Femur Kurzweil does not claim to know what will happen. I have read several of his books and he mostly seems to talk about how these trends will cause major changes. He then outlines more than one possible outcome.…
You missed something that works without javascript. I don't run it. Any suggestions? Other than running javascript, which is way too bad an idea, security wise.
I have never understood why most people even created PayPal accounts. A PayPal like system that worked well would be very convenient. But, when I go try to create an account, I always get stopped by the Terms of…
