Comment i know how to cool the planet off (Score 1, Funny) 343

set off a few nuclear bombs deep underground at a supervolcano and that should cause it to throw enough debris in to the atmosphere blocking enough sunlight to cool the planet off and possibly cause a mass extinction event

Comment Re:maybe KDE will be next (Score 1) 693

i give up on it, but i liked it enough to have hope for it, right now i just use the lightweight window managers like Openbox, IceWM, and others, Xorg stays out of my way for the most part, i have noticed Slackware-14.1 Xorg sort of odd compared to previous Slackware versions on this same PC so i am sticking with 14.0 for now while waiting for Slack's next release after 14.1 (14.2? 15.0?)

unless you consider spam, government propaganda disguised as news, NSA snooping trojans & root-kits, theft of data for their criminal friends on wallstreet and military-industrial complex as freedom of speech

what passes as freedom of speech in the USA is about like considering a rape a sexual encounter among consenting adults

Comment if i was in charge of an island nation (Score 1) 139

i would disconnect the nation from the rest of the world and turn the nation's internet connection in to a nationwide Local Area Network, so the people of my nation can communicate with each other by the various methods (audio, video, text) and have a few world wide connected computers that filter out all the spam and malware, and once checked it can be circulated on the national LAN.

Comment I think all obsoleteed OSs (Score 1) 650

should have the source code released as GPL-3 so communities can grow up around them, i would like to see that happen to all of Microsoft's obsoleted OSs and software, win9x, 2k, xp, etc...

maybe give the companies a short grace period between the software being declared obsolete and the release of the code like 3 years, and the same for any other obsoleted software

Comment Google's ANdroid Playstore (Score 1, Troll) 161

is full of half-assed quality adware, this is based on personal experience with an android tablet i bought recently, for example there was no app for taking screenshots, so i search the Play Store for screenshot apps, instead of finding a couple to choose from i find dozens of them and most require i root/unlock my tablet in order to function, i think i will wait until i can get a more open build of arm tablet so i can install Debian on it or just throw in the towel on electronic gadets and live like an Amish farmer
