Posted by wolfger on January 21, 2008
Today, we’ll be comparing the hot new Mac Air versus the old trustworthy Commodore SX-64. May the system with the best features win…
Nothing to see here. Move along.

- Brian Murray: Consolidate with Bug Patterns December 22, 2009Somewhat recently I blogged about specification discussion was that the tools in Ubuntu Bug Patterns should be modified to make consolidating already reported bugs easier. I’ve improved the ’search-bugs’ tool to consolidate bugs matching a pattern into a master bug report. This can be done by using a command like the following: search-bugs --package odt2txt […]Brian Murray

Today we take the statement to another level by taking a look at one of our nation’s most significant probl […]Thomas

Robotech_Master writes "CherryPal, which Slashdot last covered back in 2008, has released a $99 netbook, the Africa, aimed at the developing world but (unlike the OLPC) available for sale to the consumer. But unlike most netbooks, the Africa is not actually made to a set design. Instead, it uses a hacker-like approach simil […](author unknown)

- LED traffic lights don't melt snow, do cause accidents December 22, 2009Shared by wolfger The law of unintended consequences... A number of cold weather American states are reporting their dismay at finding out that LED traffic lights are so energy efficient that they do not produce enough excess heat to dissipate any snow that covers them. It turns out, perhaps in an homage to bad engineering everywhere, that the inefficiency o […](author unknown)

- Why I don't (usually) use Windows December 17, 2009December 11th, 2pm So in late November, I cracked and bought a Vaio P11Z/B as a travel typing machine. (Half price, two year extended warranty thrown in — they were discontinuing it. What can I say?) It's a nice piece of hardware, except for the software. It came running Vista, and lumbered with Sony's usual crapware. There are also fun issues surr […]Charlie Stross
