Even with the add-on, it's still a deal breaker. I shouldn't have to install an add-on that still doesn't give me the same functionality as I had before. Luckily, I can still do

With Gnome, I usually make a changes: setting my background, configuring the Workspace Switcher how I like it, adding a few icons to the application bar at the top, and a few hotkeys. I also like to map the F1 key to maximize the window, so that when I hit it by accident, I don't get inconvenienced by the pop-up. Who needs documentation anyway?

Again, from TFA: "Thank you, Fred Amoroso" Yeah, fuck you, Fred.
Myspace should take pre-emptive action on this. Using IP geolocation, they should present a page to anyone connecting from Georgia informing them that, due to pending legislation that they cannot conceivably comply with, Myspace will no longer be providing service to anyone in the state.

Silicon chips. They're like potato chips, only slightly crunchier.
Cartoon Network pulled a hilarious April Fool's joke a few years back.

It's late at night. Nothing like a bottle of Mountain Dew and a flame war to keep the programmers awake. So, how about that PHP?
