and what did you say before that "not complaining" speech?
That's funny because I had to wait for 8.04 before I could boot Ubuntu on my EVGA 8800GTS 640M without manually fucking editing the grub config to disable framebuffer.
That is complaining. Just because you stick "not complaining" afterwards doesn't alleviate the fact that you just complained in big bold letters.
I don't think there is any possible way you could say that's not a reasonable argument against what the parent said, and with your quoted stats of one out of every ten people
In fact I can. You're complaining that your bleeding edge hardware didn't work "out the box" until Ubuntu Hardy, if only 9% of gamers (not people) have this card then why are you complaining? It simply isn't a high priority to get it working out the box.
You immediately start complaining and writing you own driver instead of emailing creative and respectfully asking them to dual license it under BSD as well.
It's because all their cards are the same but they turn features on and off in the software allowing them to charge more for some cards then others but still producing the same card.
It's also why Nvidia doesn't release the source to their drivers, it's been put forth by the Nouveau guys (the people making an open source nvidia driver) that the Geforce 7 series is the same as the Geforce 6600 series and that if you want your Geforce to become a more expensive Quadro it's a simple memory rewrite to a certain location on the card.
Good point, yet my girlfriend's family (not American, Asian) have amazing family values, everyone is home before 8 / 9, respectful to your parents, etc, but her brother is the biggest dick I've ever met.
I think it's just totally random or perhaps I would imagine that school has a bigger part to play then the parents, since we spend more of our time there then home (not counting sleeping).
Feb. 15, 2007 -- Ponds and swamps are becoming eerily silent. The familiar melody of ribbits, croaks and chirps is disappearing as a mysterious killer fungus wipes out frog populations around the globe, a phenomenon likened to the extinction of dinosaurs.
Yeah, we're the cause, that's the blanket statement these days, but as usual is global warming lies from the evo religious cult.

um, ok..
This is the first android thing on front page in a long time. Agreed that it sucks though.
No thanks on compiling my html.

I love the attitude of the BSD users.

Why not use the GUI mixer? It does the same thing as alsamixer.
I think most people would use the 2 or 3 GUI tools available to edit their X.org rather then directly do it like you have.
That's probably why you're having problems, because you didn't use the GUI tools.
So you're in the 9.37% of people that buy the latest and greatest, why are you complaining about being in the minority?
Most people don't have anything over a Geforce 6000 and gamers are the people that keep their hardware upgraded the most.
It's troll, but it should be off topic.
You do realise that PCs can have more then one joystick too right? It's just you're too retarded to set it up.
They're talking on the issue of child aggression on video game violence and show a screenshot of game which is rated 18+ to play, just what the fuck?!
The only benchmark that matters when it comes to speed and optimisation is the top 500..
Linux - 378 - 75.60 %
MacOS X - 2 - 0.40 %
Indeed however if you want to do something on Linux it's probably already been done three times over so there's no need to write any code.
You know how you find out?
You type "Ubuntu PPC" into Google and it's the second hit.
The GP is right, just because you contribute to other causes doesn't mean you get to decide what others should spend their money on.
I never complained about that in the first place.. wtf?
Indeed, i'm just kidding.
You could just adjust your filters in the preferences. Why force your choice on me?
Maybe if you kept up with current events old news wouldn't be news to you.
Do you happen to be an editor for slashdot?
The worst part is when you look in the fridge, under the bed, on the tv stand... and the particle was in your pocket the whole time!
Best thing I have read on Slashdot all week, well done sir.

Sorry but that's the dumbest thing I have ever heard, you sit and take getting beaten by a bat or you will get punished? What the fuck?!
