Yes, there are a lot of immigrants in sweden. All of them that I have met (except for the ones from the E.U) have been productive members of society. There's the turk system admini…

Swedish submarines are ok... "Gotland managed to penetrate the defensive measures of Carrier Strike Group Seven undetected and snap several pictures of the USS Ronald Reagan during…

I am 25. It guessed 34. On the plus side, I got carded when I went out drinking this weekend.

I prefer the name Bachelor Chow myself, though I'd try Soylent as well. I wouldn't want to eat it for every meal but every once in a while I'm in such a hurry that it would be prac…

If you have kept the beta up to date you're already on 12.10.

I really don't understand why the upgrade seems to be so hit and miss between people. My current laptop has been on the same ubuntu install since (at least) 10.04. I've even upgrad…

It's not like that on my Nexus 7. I can choose only to use the GPS in the Location services settings, or I can choose to use "Google's location service", which sends information to…

I'm looking to switch away from godaddy. Do you know a good registrar in europe that takes privacy issues seriously and isn't too expensive?

The one month free only applies to hosting. I only use godaddy for dns and recieved the letter without the line about getting credit. (as a side note, I want to switch away from go…

I don't know how it works elsewhere but here in sweden they don't check if you're a donor until they have already taken the decision to take you off the respirator ("killing" you e…

While I don't agree that it would "ruin" the music I find it a bit disconcerting if I'm listening to something I am used to hear the "right way" reversed. But that's obviously only…

Interesting. Most of these email addresses/host names seem to be swedish... Also, some of them seem like they wouldn't have ps3s. Like 'uppsala.kloster@telia.com'. "Uppsala kloster…

Personally I think that the control will be a mix of things, but the obvious primary control system is using your eyes - there already exists technology for having a computer mouse…

That's true at least here in sweden. I'm guessing the rest of europe as well.

Apart from that, a side effect that is common among antidepressants is (increased) suicidal ideation. This makes it doubly important to monitor people who are starting out on antid…

Why wouldn't it? A xor A = 0. A xor 0 = A. That should work like a regular circularly linked list or am I missing something? edit Doh, now I understand. If this was allowed it woul…

amd64 is the name for the architecture that both intel and amd use in their 64-bit desktop processors. It has that name because it was originally amd that released the architecture…

The code became copyrighted the moment it was written, but I guess it would only be considered copyright infringement and not theft.

> patched sources it was for... I don't recall exactly, something non-standard gcc did with templates, possibly? Anyways, they sent me the sources pre-patched, I just compiled it. …

I have manually installed a local gcc from patched sources on gentoo, and this seems like the standard procedure. There might be a few more helper libraries needed now than in earl…

> I was surprised to find that the process of building gcc-4.7 from sources on Ubuntu is so complicated, after all, this is a Linux system … It didn't look all that complicated to …

no blink-tags either...

I must say that this is a very interesting project. Any hope for an android version? The problem with making a editor that enforces "correct" coding is how to make the transitional…

Have they finally made it so that you can set per-screen wallpaper? I remember thinking that that was a really basic feature that was missing in win 7.
