I can understand something like a phone number, where each digit is singular and stands apart from the others. If you're saying that about composite numbers (like 'two hundred and thirty nine'), you're the first person I've met claiming tha

You own't be disappointed. It's extremely pleasant to use (and fast).

I used Sabayon and I will back this statement 100%. It was absolutely a pleasure to use, and surprisingly more slick than I expected.

Have you tried Mint instead of Ubuntu? It's like Ubuntu's hot, skinnier, younger sister.

Is there any reason you'd use Ubuntu over an Ubuntu-like distro such as Linux Mint? I'm just curious, because I feel like not many people know about Mint here, and the general feeling is that people don't want to use Ubuntu, but like apt an

I use CentOS 6.x almost exclusively, since I work with several different low-end VPS for my businesses. I found it's much, much easier to have adopted a sort of "let it fail" philosophy and replicate across many (then worry about the failur

I'm actually a bit surprised to see Mint with so few users here. I expected Ubuntu to have less of a grip on the HN community than, say, Reddit or something. There's definitely a large Arch and Debian community, which is what I expected, bu

Hear, hear! I can (and do) run Crunchbang on tiny embedded devices all the way up through those netbooks. For all of those smaller (capability) devices, you really can't go wrong with #!.

In the interests of Science and defense of this method, I did in fact meet my first wife this way. The problem was that I was simply never around (war, you know), not necessarily that it wasn't a good match.

From what I can tell, there's no pattern in any synesthesia. It's due ("they" think) to essentially a hardware crossover in the regions of the brain responsible for these "cognitions"... You have the same idea I did for some time when I was

Yes, that's exactly it! Some letters are not there (actually most letters), and I know that some numbers are "weaker" than others. I also know that some of these color synesthetics have changed over time. For example, I know that the numb

Yes, I know Swedish and German, and this is the case for those words, as well. The "input" is irrelevant as long as it ends up with my thinking of the concept of "Friday" or whatever. In the case of foreign languages, foreign word goes in,

Yes certainly, synesthesia has many different forms. From what I understand -- and I could be completely off, but this is just information I've tried to collect since I finally had a word for the condition -- the word-color synesthesia thin

This is an interesting observation. I've been writing code for about twenty years, and using some form of syntax highlighting for a little over ten of those years. I change the colors in vim (and geany, my other IDE-du-jour) to match functi

I have synesthesia in real life. For me, I have one of the "most common" forms, between words and colors. Specifically, I have a color-word synesthesia ("association" is not the right word here) between days of the week and colors. For ex

Because there's so much technical information about this project on the campaign page... There's just no way you are probably throwing your money into a hole by backing it.

Okay. Yet another hardware Kickstarter with egregious claims? No, thanks.
