      And by the time distros other than Gentoo have support for gtk+ 2.6.1, gtk+ 3.2.4 will be out.

  2. GTK != Grand Theft Potassium by viva_fourier · · Score: 3, Funny

    Sorry to disappoint you chemistry geeks out there, it's been verified: I did a search on GTK and did not find any Grand Theft K 3d chemistry gaming references...apparently it's some toolkit for gimps.

    Move along, nothing to see here.

      The "you die if you fall into water" property got merged into GTA, so the potassium version didn't matter much.

    When will open source emerge from the dark ages and match the brilliant quality and capability of Mac OS X?

    Probably when Apple decides to use an open source kernel for its OS *giggle*.

    C'mon guys, it's 2004: time to start publishing release notes in HTML.

    That's sooo 90s. The fashion is publishing release notes in flash, dude. Now this is progress.

  5. These Gentoo compilation jokes are so damn funny.. by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 2, Funny

    ..that by the time I've stopped laughing at this one the next one will have been told!

  6. Fortran? by Aardpig · · Score: 2, Funny

    Bah, no bindings for Fortran. It would be nice to see a decent open-source GUI toolkit for Fortran; a front end does wonders for the ability of PHBs to appreciate a piece of code.
