Microsoft claims to have a solution to fix the problem. How many people do you know that have hair that has turned grey? This web site has a large collection of links to humorous Microsoft Knowledge Base articles."

    1) Install SuSE.
    2) Plug in speakers, turn on. *Critical Step*
    3) Increase volume until we can't hear you whine.

    No, really - sound in KDE has always 'just worked'. To be fair, artsd dosen't (seems to be better these days) always play nice with the G-apps, but hey.

  2. Calculator - Missing Sqrt, Arc-trig functions by BigBlockMopar · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Then what's the point of using a calculator in the first place?

    Little. There's very little.

    They had the opportunity to ship Windows with a convenient little applet, maybe modelled on a Casio FX-991 or similar - at the very least, give it a scrolling multiline output!

    Instead, the Square Root function disappears in scientific mode (real issue, annoying, forces you to enter the square root a longer way, but not a big problem to anyone who actually uses the scientific functions).

    But the real problem: how do you do arc-trig functions? They *must* be there, because there's absolutely no point in having trig functions without arc-trig, and they're kinda basic features in any calculator calling itself "scientific".

    No hyperbolic trig functions, either.

    This is what you get when you let a bunch of arts degrees from the marketing department design grown-up adult tools.
