KDE 3.0 beta 1 is out

Posted by HeUnique on from the let-the-tests-begin dept.

From the development team who tries to break every development speed record (last month they released KDE 2.2.2) comes KDE 3.0 beta 1, with lots of new features, new QT (3.0.1). It is beta 1 so expect crashes. You can find release notes and download locations over . A full feature list of whats planned to be on KDE 3.0 is also available (hmm, quite a big list) and some screenshots are available here. Please read the README files for your favorite distribution before installing the files as those packages are not replacing the KDE 2.2.X binaries (if you have it installed).

    Whoever modded this up as funny is a flaming cocksucker.

    I don't know about sexual preference, but to me it looks like it is you that is flaming, no?

    On the other hand, wouldn't it be a hoot if that guy really did change his page so it redirects to goatse?

    I'm thinking the plan is:

    1) Mirror a site (properly)
    2) Get up to +5.
    3) Set a script up to swap the images on your linked site with the goatse.cx ones and back again every 5 / 10 seconds.

    Half the people who visit will see anus, the other half the correct images - consequently no-one will know what the feck is going on!

    Further question though - what the hell has that guy done to his ass - drive a truck through it???

    Watch the rest of the series and practice a lot:P

    Anyway. I have an ass myself (although it's not that wide) but I have bones next to it. I don't understand how this guy can possibly stretch his ass that far without removing these bones...Or am I the only one that has them? Please check.

    Well that's fine and dandy if all you do all day is move and resize windows and browse your disk. For the rest of us who actually use our computer to do something productive, the choice of OS has a lot to do with the programs that are required. Having said that, there are a lot of NT programs that I could use during my day-to-day admin duties, but Linux and it's associated programs offers me all I need.

    Increase usage of Standard C++ STL objects throughout. I am as interested in learning YANSI (Yet Another Novel String Implementation) as I am in learning C#.
    Where the STL falls short, go to Boost.
    Borland, if you're listening, please make your VCL/CLX libraries work more easily with STL. Still waiting for C++ Builder on Linux, BTW.
    The theme of this post is that platform- and vendor-specific implementations are a PITA.
