- Don't bother finding Tuvalu on a map. It may be gone soon.
- Tuvalu vanishing under water - again?I'd first heard this prediction about Tuvalu nearly 20 years ago ...and I expect to hear it again in 20 years, unless 'global climate change' morphs back into 'global coolings' from the 1970's.It would be funny, if it weren't so sad.So what?What has Tuvalu given...

- Nothing to get excited aboutThe Core i3's and new i5's are dual-core only.Looking at the chart, they are only capable of 4 threads and have Hyperthreading, hence only 2 real cores.I'm betting that Intel still won't have anything close to compelling in the chipset market compared to AMD's Radeon chipsets,...

- Can Chrome OS save us from racket ware?
- Open Source / Repositories vs. Windows Closed SourceThe idea of having GPG-protected repositories which contain open source apps is central to the notion that these apps' source code is viewed by 'many eyes' and as such, vetted.Get your app outside of your designated O/S approved repos and you 'tempt fate'.In...

- Harry, please ignore the deniersThey will try to quash any voice of reason. I believe they hope to maneuver themselves into a position where they can argue that they should not be affected by the consequences because they don't believe in man-made climate change.
