  • ♺ @glynmoody: AirForce PS3 Supercomputer Screwed By Sony Killing Off #Linux Support http://bit.ly/c4l5wI open source becoming hard t replace #
  • @evan It all boils down to this: they want to appeal to something “apparently” lacking here (I dunno). Solve the absence, problem solved. 🙂 #
  • It’s a shame that Garzon was suspended. #
  • A scandal not much different than a corrupter being cleared by the court because he was dumb enough to try with the wrong person (in Pt) #
  • 100 Milhões € pagavam cerca de 1/3 do aumento do IVA até ao fim do ano. Em licenças Microsoft do e-Escolas+e-Escolinhas dava para mais 1/3. #
  • Quem me dera ter tido uma prof gira que posasse na Playboy quando era novo… morro de inveja 🙂 #

  • ♺ @BoingBoing: UK Prime Minister Cameron was in a rich Oxford brats club that destroyed restaurants for fun http://bit.ly/c4T885 #
  • @marcusharrison yes but support for AMD cards lags a bit, so don’t expect the fancy new ones to be well supported, but gen-1 usually ok #
  • @marcusharrison my laptop’s been suspending & resuming without any problem, it mostly depends of other factors. Suspend solves a compiz bug. #
  • ♺ @jerezim: 5 jours pour répondre (mm partiellement) à la consultation du Gouv. sur la Neutralité du Net! http://ur1.ca/z0si (pls RT!) #
  • Se o Papa pode peregrinar até Fátima de helicóptero, o que é que isso diz dos peregrinos que vão lá de joelhos? 🙂 #
  • @gbraad I absolutely agree, as well. #DRBD rocks! #
  • @mmiicc indeed, I ended up giving up having a photo manager other than the file system 🙂 #
  • @tonnerre I’ve read of DRBD being used to have a storage cluster from coast-to-coast in the USA. #
  • @tonnerre and if you have no external storage (because someone didn’t want to buy that for you), it’s a great way to solve a problem. #
  • ♺ @glynmoody: #Torture Supporter Peter Ricketts as #UK National Security Adviser – http://bit.ly/aktP0a not so good (via @PoliceStateUK) #
  • ♺ @zoobab EPO EBOA:When judiciary-driven legal development meets its limits, it is time for the legislator to take over #
  • ♺ @jwildeboer: @zoobab the EPO putting itself above the law must end NOW. But our so-called politicians in Brussels will not care. #
  • ♺ @zoobab: @jwildeboer Yes but national politicians will care. Stop Software Patents, the national road. #
  • ♺ @zoobab: EPO can continue to grant numerous software patents as it is doing for

  • @snarf The *real* reason (hidden in that dev’s words) is the same more proprietary apps don’t get ported to !GNU/!Linux… #
  • @snarf !GNU/!Linux systems are usually too aggressive for the frozen-style of those sterile and clonable apps http://is.gd/c2ag6 #
  • ♺ @jwildeboer: OOo should simply state the *exact* license and not an umbrella "opensource" without specification or definition. #
  • ♺ @jwildeboer: @charlesschulz @floeff stating "opensource" as a license for OOo extensions is not enough. Please fix this ASAP. #
  • @jwildeboer:if one bothers to read !fsf’s public letter, they asked to at least provide a new listing, just of !freesoftware extentions. #
  • @jwildeboer: which is quite different from a so called ‘veto’. I’d like to see what is, to me, a miscommunication cleared soon enough. #
  • @jwildeboer:the OOo community council’s reply seemed more borderline autistic in an OpenBSD sort of distortion field. #
  • @jwildeboer:as in ‘could you do fubar?’ vs ‘omg you’re a tyrant forcing me at gun point’ #
  • @jwildeboer: an #android phone is a good step away from that blackberry you had. Good for you ! 🙂 #
  • ♺ @sloshy: The #1 way to make people want to have copyright changed: say that in the USA, it is illegal to sing Happy Birthday publicly. #
  • @charlesschulz: good! Too bad miscommunication led to such escalation, but positive discrimination towards free xtnsns would be better! #
  • @charlesschulz: but your message claims something uncharacteristic which is ‘demand of veto power’. seems like overbroad interpretation. #
  • @charlesschulz: don’t you remember those words yesterday ? ‘effective veto power’ was coined in the official reply! #
  • becoming a fan of ventura browser in the !freerunner , if only https wasn’t borked (stops loading after ten per cent) #
  • @rahulsundaram: last time I checked nouveau wasn’t yet free of blobs, has it improved in that regard ? If so, great news ! #
  • @charlesschulz: that still sounds like overbroad interpretation. I have a hard time believing it at face value… #
  • lol ♺ @TMorais: O começo de uma teoria da conspiração? http://postal.blogs.sapo.pt/222076.html #
  • ♺ @zoobab: An explanation of why a computer running new software is not a "new machine": http://ur1.ca/003as #
  • @joliveira refere-se ‘a mistura vergonhosa dos interesses do football com o poder politico, claro… #
  • ♺ @JoseDePina: Depois de tanto Papa/Fátima e Benfica nas TV’s estou admirado de ainda não ter aparecido nada sobre o Salazar. #
  • ♺ @PauloQuerido: RT @31daSarrafada: Ainda não percebi isto: Para quê tanta segurança terrena para Ratzinger? Deus não o protege? #
  • !elmdentica + #ventura + !shrproject == happy !freeruner online experience 🙂 #
  • #kvm still gives me an instantaneous reboot in !fedora 12 but I was pleasantly surprised to see plain #qemu survive suspend ! #
  • @gbraad: I wont be holding my breath, I must confess… #
  • @brunomiguel: plain qemu is slow as hell by nature… #

  • ♺ @GabrielfSilva: amanhã, com as medidas ilegais aprovadas pela UE de intervenção nos mercados e contramedidas, vai ser dia agitado na bolsa #
  • ♺ @achitnis: I wonder whether we should declare June 1st as worldwide “Delete-your-Facebook-account Day” to send FB a message #
  • ♺ @rahulsundaram: Unlike #Ubuntu which creates artwork using Apple Mac http://is.gd/c1Gj0 !Fedora artwork is created exclusively by itself #
  • I didn’t know that. I’m sad #Ubuntu doesn’t promote free software by requesting #artwork to be done with free software… #
  • Instead, the result is clearly exhibited in the article «Linux is not yet ready to be a practical platform for designers» (bullshit). #

  • @ml2mst: or they just follow you so you try to know who they are and maybe click on their links… #
  • The !openmoko !freerunner would have been a resounding success if the software then worked as fine as it does now with !shrproject. Grats! #

  • Remover as viaturas estacionadas no percurso do Papa devia dar um processo estilo “class action” contra a CML e o Estado, supostamente laico #
  • @jwildeboer well, not to MasterCard, they think it is impossible to provide support and quality assurance with Free Software. #

  • @lopo: Lisboa-Paris quantos km são? #
  • @lopo: eu não disse que defendo o trajecto actual… o que defendo é a interligação. #
  • @lopo: pelo contrário, FUD é para desincentivar. Quem está a desincentivar o quê? Eu só quero é que a despesa seja feita + racionalmente. #
  • @openuniverse: duh! 🙂 #

  • Alguém me sabe confirmar se o deslizamento de terras em #Lisboa foi neste rectângulo de encosta que se vê ao centro? http://is.gd/bVHFy #
  • hehehe olhó-fishing a esfregar as mãos… http://is.gd/bVIrc #IDN #ccTLDs #
  • A teimosia que vai ficar cara em relação ao #TGV é fazer mais do que Lisboa Madrid. Mas que necessitamos do TGV… a #ashcloud provou-o! #
  • ♺ @mattfraction: RT @rushkoff: This is the end: crowdsourced american youth gestapo at http://snapscouts.org #
  • @lopo: quando falo em #tgv falo em “train de grande vitesse” de forma genérica e não o “TGV” propriamente dito. #
  • @lopo: Nada nesse artigo refuta de forma séria aquilo que a #ashcloud nos ensinou: os céus podem-nos ficar bloqueados subitamente. #
  • @lopo: com os ventos certos, a #ashcloud poderia ter transformado o voo Lisboa-Madrid em 1 semana em vez das (fantasistas IMHO) 2h #
  • @lopo: eu ia e volta BragaLisboa em Intercidades e permite-me discordar de ti, sobretudo no verão. É intolerável. #
  • @lopo: duh, claro, mas não faz parte da rede europeia de TGV, logo perdes as vantagens de escala. #
  • @lopo: por isso mesmo é que em Portugal devias ter mais Alfas, mas Lx-Madrid devias ter algo mais rápido… #
