I'm currently receiving CBT "Cognitive Behaviour Therapy" can't wait till the next session: just put
on this helmet and relax while I switch you onto the matrix!!
snip:
In 1933, Hungarian physicist Leó Szilárd had proposed that if any neutron-driven process released more neutrons than those required to start it, an expanding nuclear chain reaction might result. Chain reactions were familiar as a phenomenon from chemistry (where they typically caused explosions and other run-away reactions), but Szilárd was proposing them for a nuclear reaction, for the first time. However, Szilárd had proposed to look for such reactions in the lighter atoms, and nothing of the sort was found. Upon experimentation shortly after the uranium fission discovery, Szilárd found that the fission of uranium released two or more neutrons on average, and immediately realized that a nuclear chain reaction by this mechanism was possible in theory. Szilárd kept this secret at first because he feared its use as a weapon by fascist governments. He convinced others to do so, but identical results were soon published by the Joliot-Curie group, to his great dismay.
dude I want to come clean "karma and all" I was moding you informative and clicked on redundant!!!:( sorry... why the hell slashdot made it auto-change I don't know? so hopefully posting this will undo may damage and clear all my
mods on this topic!;)
exactly! I used Gnome for years then tried KDE about 18 months back and have never looked back. To me KDE looks more like Windows and Window's was my first GUI, Gnome on the other hand is more like the old Apple Mac and I never
got the feel for it even after years and years of using it. KDE is clean and functional Gnome seems to be based on hack after hack mixing of old and new library's. Only gripe I have with KDE is they have not made a KDE/ui based firefox something I think is very silly.
Your right we should all take the problems of the world upon us and go bunkers!!! go save a whale you knob! people die for stuff all over the world "including the USA & UK".
because it gives me a feeling of belonging, Window's cant belong to me but Linux can! It helps to make you feel somewhat important in some small but significant way. The dreams and possibilities are never far from reality either.
it's down to hassle point blank! Linux is moving on too fast even for games developed for that platform, take a look for example at Alpha Centauri try installing it today on Linux you'll be sure to be in for hours of tinkering and frustration to get it working. Same goes for almost all games made for Linux, they may work well for a few years but then bang things change with X11 for example and the game was designed using older API's and things don't just work! This is why I've argued in the past we need a solid gaming SDK for Linux that doe's not break older software.. I'd even go to the extent and recommend a new solution for packaging libs for games! so they can just be included with the game without having to worry about installing old libs etc on a system.
I agree with all you've mentioned but I do have a little gripe with OSS.. I'm a developer and have been for 25 years, it's how I make a living but I'm finding it harder to make a living from development of software & games because of the OSS community; NOW don't get me wrong here I do provide a lot of OSS myself and have contributed thousands of unpaid hours to the cause but what I'm starting to see and be affected by in the wallet is OSS recreating what I've already created for free thus rendering my hard earned labour useless and not very worthwhile.
It was once a great thing to be able to sit at home and be your own boss but those days are numbered, I'm sure a lot of developers feel this pinch it's not enough to be a single developer now, you need a mighty company behind you to make any kind of real world income. I can't live on love alone.
standards mode by default: looks like to me they will show the world how "bad" the standards are cause they never wrote them, they do this by telling everybody this is the standard!!! but it won't be it'll be a broken half assed attempt at the standard making it all look bad!!
Slashdot Mirror
so who will do it first?
and do a lot more casting!
we need an easer gimp!! its extremely frustrating and falls short of requiring a masters degree in order to use! why is it some dam complicated...

just make sure you bring the sun block!
your over stating ... so fossils are not evidence of life? ... ummm
wtf? we can look at huge bones older than this?

no way.. seriously? and I thought they would get less creative!!

Woman from Venus!
in that case make sure we send a woman then the men already on Mars can breed!!
