DID YOU KNOW?   The origins of Valentine's Day trace back to the ancient Roman celebration of Lupercalia. Held on February 15, Lupercalia honored the gods Lupercus and Faunus, as well as the legendary founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus. In addition to a bountiful feast, Lupercalia festivities are purported to have included the pairing of young women and men. Men would draw women's names from a box, and each couple would be paired until next year's celebration. More »

Tell officials to commute Dutch's sentence and give him another chance at life! Take Action Today! Hi Annisa, Send your Valentine's Day eCards today! DID YOU KNOW?   According to Roman mythology, Cupid was the son of Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. Cupid was known to cause people to fall in love by shooting them with his magical arrows. But Cupid didn't just cause others to fall in love - he himself fell deeply in love. As legend has it, Cupid fell in love with a mortal maiden named Psyche. Cupid married Psyche, but Venus, jealous of Psyche's beauty, forbade her daughter-in-law to look at Cupid. Psyche, of course, couldn't resist temptation and sneaked a peek at her handsome husband. As punishment, Venus demanded that she perform three hard tasks, the last of which caused Psyche's death. Cupid brought Psyche back to life and the gods, moved by their love, granted Pysche immortality. Cupid thus represents the heart and Psyche the (struggles of the) human soul. More »

How to Handle Advised BIOS Upgrade Failure  When 1 GB Really Isn't 1 GB Ron Paul Turns to UN to Seize Control of Domain From Fans Surface Pro Sold Out or Just Understocked? Making Side-Money as a Programmer? Hot Comment: Theories of 'gravity' and electricity under review From the Vault: Open-Source Software and 'The Luxury of Ignorance' Watch It: New Low-Cost, High-Res 3D Printer Like No Other Poll Booth: I Get Most of My Caffeine Through... How to Handle Advised BIOS Upgrade Failure  Bomarc was advised twice to "flash the BIOS to the latest"--once by a (major) hard drive controller maker (RAID) and once by an OEM. Both times, the update bricked an expensive piece of equipment. And both times, the response after the failed flash was "It's not our problem, it's out of warranty." Have other Slashdotters experienced this and what should be done about it? Sound Off>> When 1 GB Really Isn't 1 GB When it comes to RAM, as every geek knows, 1 GB does not mean 1 billion bytes; it means 2**30 (1,073,741,824) bytes. However, several decades ago "they" decided that GB, MB, and KB would be interpreted differently when it comes to disk drives. Ed Bott points out that Microsoft's marketers and Windows kernel developers aren't on the same page when it comes to these units. Sound Off>> Ron Paul Turns to UN to Seize Control of Domain From Fans Libertarian folk hero Ron Paul is feuding with his rabid fan base over the ownership of RonPaul.com. Now he's gone to the United Nations' World Intellectual Property Organization to seize control of the domain rather than purchasing it from its creators. Sound Off>> Surface Pro Sold Out or Just Understocked? TechCrunch is one of the many outlets to report that Microsoft's Surface Pro tablet computer sold out on its first day of wide availability. Business Insider points to Reddit threads complaining that "selling out" was largely a product of not having all that many in stock to begin with, in some cases not even enough to cover pre-ordered devices. Sound Off>> Making Side-Money as a Programmer? earlzdotnet has a full-time job as a programmer and wouldn't mind spending some free time working on some short-term projects. But freelance work doesn't seem to pay very well and teaching is not an option, so the poster asked Slashdotters, "Are there any other options to make a bit of cash as a programmer? Is programming just one of those things that requires complete dedication, or what?" Sound Off>> Theories of 'gravity' and electricity under review "Sigh. There's just no cure for stupid. Full disclosure. I live in Texas and yes, this embarrasses me." --by gestalt_n_pepper Read More>> Open-Source Software and 'The Luxury of Ignorance' Nine years ago, Eric Raymond drew from his experience of trying to configure CUPS on his home network to write a screed on poor design of user interfaces in general, and configuration interfaces in particular, in open-source software. Read More>> New Low-Cost, High-Res 3D Printer Like No Other A new offering in the world of low-cost desktop 3D printers that uses a process called Stereolithography instead of the standard FDM (fused deposition modeling) will likely shake things up. Stereolithography can get to much higher resolutions and seems to make structures that are stronger and can be machined more accurately than those made by the FDM process. Formlabs co-founder Max Lobovsky explains.
