Considering the murderous rage:) GPL3/Stallman is showing towards these deals, it seems as though the FSF wants Linspire (and Novell and Xandros) to pay dearly. But what I'm wondering is, as Linspire has made these patent deals, what will it mean for Cannonical. Didn't Linspire and Cannonical make agreements? If their agreements are done legally (rather than Mark&Mike talking, I don't know too many details) will that mean that any GPL3 consequences about these deals could affect Cannonical through Linspire? I'm no lawyer, so I don't know. And could this end the two companies' relationship? We need to look at a broader picture, as Shuttleworth is a big guy in the business, and has both legal (to Linspire?) and political influence.
Bluefish is a text based web editor which allows far more code-based freedom. For code, frankly, it works better than Dreamweaver. It's not exactly user friendly, but is efficient and works surprisingly well once you know HTML coding. It has tons of Wizards, too, so people can insert things like pictures and charts with ease.
Kernel VM is based off QEMU -- but doesn't Xen have a similar hypervised Linux kernel. (I personally thought that may be why KVM was created -- to be a better Xen.) As I'll eventually upgrade to a Linux distro with KVM, I wonder if there are similarities in them -- or preferably if KVM could be fully tested and compared with these results.
The problem is, people are over-analyzing the open/closed source debate. We've had...uh...about 5 articles like this in the last few days. All discussing statistics on open source, the don't do much good. The topic is drained of content, so why bother with it??? Practicality is the real issue with open source, but writing more redundant articles isn't so practical either. Numbers only work to a point. So, instead of just blasting this article, blast the overused topic.
Most end users (normal people) don't know what OS stands for; think Windows is computers and that Mac is quite freaky (no offense, but it is.) Crashes are, to them, a normal side effect of using computers. If the "end users" don't give a damn, why should we!
I'll admit, the difference between Kdevelop (KDE's IDE) and Anjuta (arguably the GNOME alternative) are trivial but too often annoying in reality. But there frankly is a reason why I, among others use Kdevelop: It simply looks better than everything else in KDE. Now, of course, because it is linked in deeply with KDE as a whole, unless you upgrade every time a new KDE release comes out, the development libraries&junk may fall behind. I upgrade about every 6-8 months, but I see how, if somebody didn't, that could be a huge pain. But Anjuta, though it uses GNOME/GTK+ libraries (GTK+ is used for almost all programs, but the GNOME variants can cause trouble), it isn't so deeply linked in. So this deepens the debate, especially since the two environments go forward at often random paces.
When I started using GNU/Linux, I got frustrated at this, and it caused me to use my Windows IDE, Microsoft Visual C++ more often. Because it has its own formats for organization, I started becoming more dependent on it as I added more headers and crap. That is why Kdevelop gives Microsoft market-share. I think, but am not sure that KDE is the most common desktop environment. Ubuntu may have altered the balance, though.

Nintendo has been bragging like hell about their "touch generations" stuff like Brain Age. The Wii, too. It does have some success, but real games for granddad are yet to come. Besides, Brain Age and Wii Sports compliment old people by giving them a lower age!
If it was possible to hack, no matter how hard (they got the AppleTV in one day!), that could cause some serious problems, lawsuits and everything. I'd like to know more about the security in the software, as software is what will make the difference. totaled by one hacker? You bet'cha! Seriously...
Open up a voting booth online. Ubuntu and FedoraCore (and, if it's legal in a few weeks) OpenSUSE will dominate the list, but I prefer Mandriva, and who knows; maybe after the "big three and lost fourth," they can see if any community distros stack up votes. A good one is SimplyMEPIS, which is the most popular spinoff of Ubuntu (as of 6.0). (Ranked by distrowatch.com.) I wonder if it's possible - but could they work with a large Kernel supporter (Red Hat is a large one, but good luck with allowing SUSE...) to make modules that can be loaded by GRUB? This is not a matter of choosing between Wolvix and aLinux, the two general desktop Linux distros at the end of the top 100 list at Distrowatch (no offence), but rather making the community at large happy, and with variance. Also, it needs to be equal between KDE and GNOME. Fedora is more GNOME oriented, as is plain Ubuntu, so Mandriva comes to mind. SUSE's KDE is great, but with Novell possibly violating the GPL, that would not be an option for me.
They'll probably secure it properly to avoid something like that. Its size will make that easily possible. Remember inertia? It can't just fly out of where it's held. If the plane crashes, it'll be still where it was attached - just under a bit of rubble.
That guy was just plain cruel to Quake4. Though the level design was linear, it was still interesting and challenging; you always had to figure out how to get through tough enemies in some sections. I also found it pretty easy to find proper switches, save for occasional parts such as the "break the glass" part near the beginning. He also failed to mention the unique parts of levels. The conveyor-belt journey to the purification area was unforgiving, and though it was short, it succeeded better than most other takes I've seen. Soon after, the Putrification Monster was also superior to most other games' takes. Story aside, Quake4 is amazing at almost everything it does.
I've seen two ways to handle the HD/blue war. a.To make a format that can be read both ways, and b. Make a reader for both. APT (dcpg/.deb) and URPMI (my favorite RPM manager) are both so similar, why doesn't somebody make a middleman manager like URPMI to manage between the two of them. Also, RPMs (I'm more familiar with them) are archives with a script, so somebody should make a package that is an executable, but can generate a primative DEB/RPM script? Two solutions.
Blair loves to copy Bush in everything. This is just another. The NSA had this a long time ago I'm guessing, and I'm guessing this whole operation will be run through sym links:) I'd bet he already has it, too. I'd be good if the EU had, um, a government to keep all this tracking together. I'm not afraid of just another database (I'm sure they're already everywhere) but with such clear disorganization the countries are showing in gereral, they might lose track of the operation. 1984 is the best distopia book, but I've heard of many that are just plainly that the world has too much knowledge, and society is just spinning off hopelessly.
When it comes to these things. I guess that and Slashdot are opposites; distrowatch.com doesn't give a damn for BSD, and Slashdot doesn't give a damn for anything that anybody puts together and calls a distro. FreeBSD is actually a good OS. Mac users use it, Solaris is based around it, and most of Linux is a cheap ripoff of it. (But I still use Linux) So it's good that somebody cares for the forgotten OS. I'd call this a weak excused for a full story, but it's good that somebody cares at all.
It looks like a good idea (the TVs.) Unfortunately, legal "mumbo jumbo" has, as always, gotten in the way. I don't see why Cannon had to give up, they could have probably dealt with it in court. Now the world can't replace their 2-day old, state-of-the-art 50in. plasma high-def sets. (sniffle) I don't like the idea of this split, and hopefully they'll find some way to make it work out. But Toshiba will probably hate Cannon temporarily, especially with the "Canon had planned to exploit Toshiba for its 'mass-production technologies,'" remark. (They'll get over it, because Cannon will try to pay big $$$ for them to produce something else:) I simply don't get it. Toshiba will come up with an alternative within a year, all the switching engineers will quit ASAP, and Cannon will find a way to produce the sets, but will be in debt forevermore. I hate deals like this, and I doubt it will be nearly perfect in the long-run. Oh well.
Thousands of things are being ripped off every day. Frankly, there's no way to stop it and no way to prove it 99.99% of the time. Life just isn't fair, and nobody's trying to change it:) It's good that this guy was caught, but this is about as common as a somebody you know winning the $10,000,000 lottery. (And let's hope none of your friend use the "tax on stupidity") I love being the bearer of bad news. Try some forums if you really think you're being ripped off, but you'll be sued for slander before somebody like me reads your post:)

you can find out enough stuff here, and still have time to make fun of the anti-competition spies like you! Just joking, so don't kill me...

Well? Why isn't it there? They are easy to find, as I know many people who loved theirs.

Because the "Kill Micro$oft" section was removed. Linux -- close enough.
Yup...

They'll just by a bank. They clearly have the revenue. But the cash for the bank purchase...

Does it really matter? If they find a competant guy, who cares for him. He just has a more famous name, that's all.
