Comment This isn't new information? (Score 1) 173

I thought everyone already knew this after the first Nissan Leaf basically bricked after 1 winter, the second gen leaf had temperature managing built in. Chevy has been heating and cooling their EV batteries since the first gen volt to keep the temperature normalized. This is a manufacturing issue not a new knowledge issue.

Comment I'd prefer to leave it alone (Score 1) 290

I like the sun being out til almost 10 in the summer and if it was standard time I'd hate the sun rising at almost 5am However, since no one can agree why or what to do about it I don't see much reason to worry about it as nothing will happen. This is why the average person only get a say in stuff every X years, because they can't agree on things and have terrible ideas.

Comment Until it was slashdotted (Score 1) 61

Well done , I'm sure all the devs will be chased into obscurity by N lawyers soon cause someone couldn't resist slashdotting it just like last years Super Mario C64 port. *clap clap* I'm sure the lack of promotion was intentional and not just an oversight waiting for an eager slashdotter to fix it.

Comment But it's still not a RaspberryPi (Score 2) 121

The RaspberryPi community still trumps it for beginners. If you're not a beginner then it doesn't matter, choose what fits the job. I am glad there are lots of boards popping up all over the place, Choice is good but I am puzzled at the fact that there's so many allwinner SoC's running around but the drivers are still...questionable. You'd figure that would be sorted out by now.

Comment That's funny (Score 1) 182

VMware for some of its major products like vCloud only support Redhat and not the clones as the installed OS for the cell, so they're putting Money in your pocket not taking it. Silly CEOs always running around being threatened by people paying them.

Comment Slight difference here from Microsoft (Score 1) 492

While this practice is quite evil yes at least... #1 if googles attempt fails they give up after a year or so instead of just forcing us to adopt their crappier version of the software without choice #2 Google is not charging us $299 a license for their version #3 Google sometimes actually comes up with something better than the original which in the end benefits all of Internet-kind

Comment Portable work environment (Score 1) 450

I use VMware View at work and all my work bookmarks and internal tools are in it. Yes I am using a fat laptop at work and a desktop at home but wherever I go I can use that work environment exactly as I left it and pickup exactly where I left off where as before I had a pre built VM at home for all my tools and it had to constantly be updated to keep up. This has made working from home or being on call on the weekends much easier for me.
