PalmSource Talks About PalmOS 6.0

Posted by timothy on from the bits-n-whistles dept.

stevejsmith writes "The Register has released an article regarding PalmSource speaking about their next OS, PalmOS 6.0. The Register says, 'Version 6.0 will be as dramatic a change for the platform as OS X was for Apple, or NT was for Microsoft...', that it will actually include some source code of BeOS, and that will support Microsoft's .NET platform, among other things."

    Is there a way to turn off the 'Related Links' box?

    I just noticed a line in it that reads 'Ad: PriceCompare', and am none too happy about it. Next thing I know, someone will be telling me that it's been there for weeks...

    While I suppose I could just edit my privoxy config to axe it (like I've done for the graphical ads and 'subscription' links) but that seems like a lot of work if there's an easier way.

    The worst terrorist attack in recorded history occurred over a year ago, followed by a Holy War against Islam, and now Israel and the Palestinians as well as India and Pakistan are teetering on the brink of their own war, Argentina is in the midst of a financial crisis, America is considering launching attacks against Somalia and Iraq, and you people have the gall to be discussing PalmOS 6.0???? My *god*, people, GET SOME PRIORITIES!

    The bodies of the thousands of innocent civilians who died (and will die) in these unprecedented events could give a good god damn about PalmOS 6.0, your childish Lego models, your nerf toy guns and whining about the lack of a "fun" workplace, your Everquest/Diablo/D&D fixation, the latest Cowboy Bebop rerun, or any of the other ways you are "getting on with your life" (here's a hint: watching Cowboy Bebop in your jammies and eating a bowl of Shreddies is *not* "getting on with your life"). The souls of the victims are watching in horror as you people squander your finite, precious time on this earth playing video games!

    You people disgust me!

    2*b || !(2*b) is a tautology

    It wasn't a yes-or-no question.
