In fact, Microsoft is free to copy-paste Linux code into Windows if they make Windows open source. Of course this will not happen because Microsoft wants to make money from selling Windows. Android, however, IS open source and therefore has the right to use code from other open source projects, assuming the licenses…

I use ICS on my notion ink adam tablet. Though not (yet) an official release (it's still in beta), it is somehow supported by Notion Ink. I really like it, though with Froyo as the only thing to compare it with one could hardly expect any different. What I like even more is that I now have access to the android market…

Ok, maybe I agree with you on this one. At least this thing does not look half as cool as the G-shock phone.

All those tv shows where every geek knows everything about sf stuff and comics etc. made me think I am quite a lousy geek, but this graphic reveals I am in fact the ubergeek to rule you all. Muhahahaha :D

Click the link, not the image. Or click the image and replace 'medium.jpg' with 'original.jpg' in the url.

Geany is also my favorite, especially when working with projects consisting of multiple files. It is almost a full-featured IDEwhile starting up even faster than Gedit. I find it less convenient when working withjust a single file though, in which case I usually revert to Gedit.

Good thing I still use my A52. No way anyone would buy something that ancient for just a single phone call :P

Same on my mobile browser :(

I own an adam and I must say the PQ display really makes it worth it, despite the lack of good software.

The crow obviously made a second bet for double the money (or whatever it is they wager) with someone else (another talking fruit perhaps?) that he could win all the animals over to cheer for the pineapple, and is therefore the wisest.

Awesome :D

I would probably file just about everything on my desktop under "Now" and forget to move it when I'm done (much like I'm already used to doing). What I find to be a very effective method of keeping a low number of icons on my desktop is reducing the amount of space available for icons; I currently have an embedded…

The stripped down software stack is the main reason why my tablet does not replace my laptop. The Ubuntu for Android initiative could solve this problem for the most part - especially when run from a large sd card. The keyboard problem is also a big one; fortunately my tablet has a usb port, though a usb keyboard can…

It's only a matter of time before these also get covered in flexible solar panels, ditching the need for an external power supply altogether. That's when this really becomes interesting.

Does anyone know if this ubuntu for eyewear [www.ubuntu.com] was already there yesterday?

In order to reach that $5 pricepoint it will have to be ported over to plain avr because arduino hardware is really expensive. (I believe with enough effort it is also possible to make a cheap avr chip arduino compatible, but if these things are gonna be made in reasonable quantities doing this to each chip is a lot…

Push notifications are not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, when I am expecting an email, the knowledge that I will be notified when it arrives is actually what keeps me from checking every minute.

I don't think this thing emits DC, because 30 kV with respect to a floating electrode in the suitcase may still be 0 V with respect to ground level. AC on the other hand really deviates from ground level even if it is defined with respect to a floating electrode.

What would also be a killer upgrade is a pixelqi/mirasol/liquavista screen, especially when their color quality and resolution catch up. Gonna be a few years I guess :(
