Yeah, and population density certainly has nothing to do with it.
Given that Japan has a population density of 337.1 per sq. km, and the United States has 34.2 per sq. km, maybe when the U.S. has a population of 3.2 billion we'll start to see some maglevs here, too.

This is exactly why I haven't bought a Wii U. I just want a Wii HD.

How is this news? We've all known about this for a very long time.

Submission + - Firefox takes the performance crown from Chrome
diegocg writes: Recent browser benchmarks are showing surprising results: in "a geometric mean of all four performance-based categories: Wait Times, JavaScript/DOM, HTML5/CSS3, and Hardware Acceleration", Firefox 22 "pulls off an upset, replacing the long-time performance champion Google Chrome 27 as the new speed king" (other browsers benchmarked were IE10, Opera 12, and Opera Next). With these results, and Firefox developers focusing in fixing the UI sluggishness, can this be the start of a Firefox comeback, after years of slow market share decline?.

Numpy / SciPy isn't just for use at home. I work in an office doing research with a bunch of Ph.D.s and we all use python exclusively. No $4,000 MATLAB licenses for us!

I disagree. As long as your books are kept correctly, the accountant only needs three things:
1) Profit and Loss
2) Balance Sheet
3) Depreciation Schedule
Gnucash does all of those. Print them out. Hand it to your account. And you're done.

Bologna. I've been using Gnucash for years on a sizable business with no problem. I'm also very familiar with QuickBooks (I worked as a staff accountant for several years). Sure, there's a lot that quickbooks can do that Gnucash can't, but there's nothing fundamentally missing from Gnucash to prevent someone from using it for business purposes.
If FOSS means anything to you, Gnucash is the only way to go.

I've also found happiness elsewhere. A combination of XFCE + OpenBox does EVERYTHING I need *and* want.
Submission + - Fedora 17 Released
ekimd writes: Fedora 17 aka "Beefy Miracle" is released. Some of the major features include: ext4 with >16TB filesystems, dynamic firewall configuration, automatic multi-seat, and more. Major software updates include Gnome 3.4, GIMP 2.8, and GCC 4.7. The full feature list can be found here.
Personally, I still find Gnome 3 to be an "unholy mess" so I'm loving XFCE with Openbox.
