KDE 2.2 Tagged
ByTor-2112 writes "According to dot.kde.org, KDE 2.2 has been tagged out. Awesome." Plans were originally to release 2.2 today, but scheduled release is now next Monday, to allow some time for more stability/speed work. 2.2 rocks my world. Excellent work on the part of all the KDE developers. Other dates mentioned are 2.2.1 in September, and opening work up on 3.0, which will hopefully come out at the beginning of 2002.
Funny thing: you got blasted for what is essentially the truth.

Anyway, screw it. I've had a +2, I've hit the karma cap. May as well have some fun on the way down.

We always have articles about KDE and GNOME, and there is always fighting about which is going to kill the other. Personally, I use GNOME, but I use some KDE apps and hope both projects continue well into the future as they draw ideas off each other. But, it sure would be interesting to see how much support both have.
The new features in KDE 2.2 sound really interesting, I will definately be checking it out just for fun. I've switched between KDE and GNOME a number of times, maybe this will be the release that gets me to change sides again ; )

I always buy two steps below the top, as that seems to be where the best price/performance can be found. Back when 386/33's and 386/40's were available, I bought a 386/25, for example. Fast forward to today, I'd buy a 1.2 Ghz Athalon - the different between a 1.33 and a 1.2 is like two dollars on pricewatch.
Of course, one thing the article doesn't mention is the fact that CPU prices (especially AMD's) are so low that for someone who's spending thousands of dollars on a system, an extra $40 or so to go to the "top of the line" processor from the best price/performance choice is well worth it.
Bonus points for creativity. No, really -- the "Linux Gay Conspiracy" got old really, really fast.
Those security holes are huge. Why hasn't someone fixed them by now?
Once XP ships, Linux tanks for the last time.
Ok. I'll bite, Mr. Troll. Linuix and other GPL/BSD based operating-systems and programs have been 'tanking' for the last 15 years. And gaining more market share all the way.
On second though, maby you just confused the word 'tanking' with the word that means: gaining market share day by day and having fun doing it.
Moneyed corporations, non-working 'poor' and criminal prisoners are turning productive citizens into tax-slaves.

Very very ironic. I can't remember the exact order, but I clearly remember everybody on "my" froups (alt.cult-movies.rocky-horror, alt.tasteless, alt.folklore.urban-legend, ect.) all bitching about how much things dropped when the Delphoids hit usenet, then when the Compuserve people (or visa versa). When Prodigy announced usenet access, we gave up. AOL was a fairly late player, and the usenetscape had been pretty much devirginized by then.
Keep in mind that this was *before* the web existed. Sometime in the early 90s, a friend downloaded and installed Mosaic .9 or so on the X machine next to mine. He showed me (plain text and images on grey), and I said: "It's nifty, but it'll never replace gopher".
Oops.

To clarify:
.edu first. I picked up Delphi when preparing to transfer schools. I figured having a relatively stable email address, kill files, etc. was fairly important. They had access prior to CIS or AOL. Or maybe CIS was first. If CIS was first, I went with Delphi because it was cheaper.
I had the
But, like anyone who moves into a new area, they want to be the last one in the gated community. All those 'new-comers' screwed it up.
But to the earlier question, I think that the idea of staying on topic was happening prior to the web being a big thing.

You could launch one right off the coast, assuming you took care of the Navy first. Right now all their ships are reeling from SirCam and Code Red.
