I'm not saying this is because of energy independence. It's just that the best way to put pressure on a country like Russia, is by affecting the GDP. Unfortunately for Russia this has proven pretty easy since a big chunk of the GD

Your theory sounds logical, and that action by OPEC would also seem logical. ... but the numbers suggest otherwise. The last few years there is no increase in production by OPEC countries: http://www.eia.gov/cfapps/ipdb

To be honest Putin is correct, it are outside factors that are contributing to the decline. For example the US has drastically increased oil production the last few years[1] in order to drop oil prices. Around the end of 2011 oil production

Well, it's possible if you're somewhat interested in linux in general. I'm a webdeveloper, mainly doing php, and I found a use case for php-fpm and systemd thanks to a blogpost of a friend. Its php-fpm pools ondemand, if you&

I had the same moral objections as you and I've been using btsync ( http://www.bittorrent.com/sync ) and must admit it works great. My archive is not that big tough, ymmv. To be honest I won't use dropbox again, eve

I noticed that when using ghostery you can't do anything; clicking login doesn't do anything, neither does clicking sign up.

Well, pointing out what is wrong with systemd proves to be very easy for some people, but fixing the issues pointed out or even start building something different that doesn't have these flaws and still can innovate, is quite another s

Aah, Ralph Brown's interrupt list, that takes me back a long time. I used to write assembler quite a lot when I was ~14year old. Now I'm a webdeveloper mainly doing php and some basic sysadmin stuff and it strikes me how far apart

The people at Google are really pushing for broad adoption of G+. If you think about it, it's pretty logical as they know Facebook is only going downhill and they are trying to get everybody onboard. The reaction I'm hearing a lot

Well, to be honest, every setup has serious problems, it just depends how far you want it to go. 100% Secure doesn't exist and while it may look like bad service from your point of view, truth is I've seen other vps solutions do the same th

Too bad the author makes it sound like digitalocean has severe problems while his setup was clearly flawed. The really sad part is that this kind problem will unfortunately only grow as vps systems become cheaper and cheaper. People with le

Yes, a led that lights up does sound pretty suspicious to you and me, but if you don't know anything about computers and you see it on all the time it becomes natural. The same phenomena as clicking 'yes' and 'ok' buttons without reading an

I'm sticking with firefox for most of the same reasons as the author notes, but I do wish the mozilla team used some common sense when they think of new features. A good example of the lack of common sense (imho) is the addon bar. Why do I

Well, you always have time to change. Thinking you can't gets you into a negative spiral downwards, and to be honest is also false. When I was starting to run I talked with a 55year old guy who ran a marathon once a year about it being diff

Whenever this issue pops up I always imagine Fabien Potencier (while he's no dictator, he has a very clear path) taking over the php source and change it according to his vision. Then I imagine going back to the first php script I ever wrot

Just a minor point of criticism; require and include are statements, not functions. Not that it's a big deal or something, but I just thought I would let you know.

Most of the comments seem so negative... When I was 16 I was also interested in OS development and actually wrote a bootsector, a very small kernel and support for fat12 in assembler. Previous experience? Basic and QBasic. It's quite a good

As an Ubuntu user since day one I don't like the way the distro is going. As some other users said before, the UI is not that great and lately I've seen ridiculous 'fixes' for bad decisions. For example: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+

Try to look at it this way: You're a user and your resume/suspend on your laptop doesn't work, you file a bug report and are mad it wasn't fixed ASAP. If I was a sysadmin and there was a bug in Ubuntu that would crash apache every 3 nights,
