Uh, well, I read Slashdot too much. Right now I ought to be studying for my school's midyear exams tomorrow.
When I do get down to studying, though, as I pledge to do after writing this post, things are fine. I don't know about ADHD because it's severe, but if I am engaged in doing something continuously, I will be able to finish it.
I don't think ADD is really that much of a "disorder", which is why it is ignored in France (see comment 7984874) without a problem. Any kid who's doodling during school, I consider to have this so-called "disorder".
But in the USA, where pharmaceutical companies have realised that more sick people == more profit, simple personality defects have become full-blown mental illnesses, like mild depression and ADD. My parents have put me on Ritalin and Aderol.
Yes, but usually you watch television apathetically and get crap shovelled into your brain beyond your control (that's why TV advertising works), whereas when you read a book you get to choose what you find interesting.
I agree with you on the nVidia thing. My computer is pretty old (750MHz), but the nVidia 3D card has held up remarkably and works even better than some on newer computers I've used.
I agree with you on the RIAA thing too, but this is Slashdot so that's no news.
Protestors may say that the KDE and GNOME applets are prettier, but on a 333MHz/56MB RAM, I don't care about pretty, I care about size. And GKrellM has a much smaller footprint than either one of these applets and their huge libraries.
The musical horizons of most of you would not extend beyond playing the banjo if it wasn't for the RIAA.
Really now? I had come to the conclusion that the RIAA is not necessary at all, and they are completely useless middlemen in the music business. How do you support your opinion?

He wants to see the RIAA get in trouble, obviously. You want to barge into people's homes and break stuff? You have my blessings, RIAA!
Maybe it's because RealPlayer for Linux is an older version.
Yes, they are resizable in Windows 2000.
Perhaps it's a feature of the NT line?
There's an official Microsoft add-on for multiple desktops in the shell; it's one of their "PowerToys".
From the "should-fix " list that was ignored for 2.6 release:

o get latest orinoco changes from David.
PRIORITY 1
2.6 is still using sucky wireless drivers that lock up the system when the wireless hub goes down!
I guess I'll wait for 2.6.5 for this to be fixed
I want a G3B :(
It's still trying to pull up all the images from the website.
You mean a 74-channel pipe organ in Surrey running Linux.
Have you even heard of GNOME?!
Sounds like what you want is GNOME.
Still getting used to that QWERTZ keyboard? :)
It wants you to read the linked website!
No, they're going to get two digits longer. The difference is they're written in hexidecimal.
Yes, but usually you watch television apathetically and get crap shovelled into your brain beyond your control (that's why TV advertising works), whereas when you read a book you get to choose what you find interesting.
Google "malbolge", it looks like programmers have also managed "Hello World" and "99 Bottles of Beer".
But you can't go any smaller than inches, whereas I've got 2704000000000000000000 square nanometers!

Thank you for pointing this out. I voted "against" the bug by voting in its anti-bug ("add MNG support").
