Not that I necessarily disagree with you, at least not in any substantive way... but I would really like some $1/watt solar cells. The ones you linked to are less than $1 per watt to produce, not cost to the consumer.

I'm driving a home-converted electric car right now. I didn't even choose my components for efficiency, and according to my kill-a-watt meter, I'm still running more than twice as efficient as an internal combustion engine.

There have been several studies comparing overall efficiency, including power transmission losses. The EV wins every time.

Submission + - FOSS Gaming Tournament (nuxified.org)

An anonymous reader writes: "Nuxified.org and Cluenet.org are preparing to hold a Free Software gaming tournament. Its purpose is to promote gaming in the Free Software world, on operating systems such as GNU/Linux, and *BSD and show that gaming is not limited to proprietary platforms such as Microsoft's Windows."
"Since this is about promoting games which are Free Software, a question of "how free must it be" becomes relevant. There are basically two major elements of a game, the engine (actual code and logic behind the game) and the data (game art such as maps and textures). For this tournament to make any sense as one of promoting Free Software games the tournament will not accept games which have an engine that is not under one of the Free Software licenses, so what remains to be decided is the freeness of game data (art basically)."

For this purpose you are invited for a vote on the following poll: Which games should be selected for the upcoming tournament?
The Nuxified team even asked Richard M. Stallman for a response on the issue of game art and got one. :)

If you want to participate please sign up here!
You can even suggest more FOSS multiplayer games for the tournament.
Windows and Mac users are also welcome since most FOSS games also run on those platforms. :)
