Krita supports it right out of the box, as does Xara Extreme. No guarantee on whether or not the packages have other features you need, but I like either a lot more than I like GIMP.
a professor of government and polity is not somebody I'd ask for an expert opinion from because he is not competent to provide one by definition. Unless his other degree is in computer science, he has recent industry experience with computer security, and he has personally examined examples of the technology.
His opinion is just another soundbite based on abject ignorance.

I managed to miss out on:: in my e-mail address.
For younger people around here, that's what addresses looked like in the early 1990s. A "smarthost" with a path to a user address. This was in the days before there were commercial ISPs everywhere. Connecting to another e-mail address back then was occasionally an adventure.
I remember a pyrolysis outfit, Changing World Technologies promising an endless supply of biofuel based on ag wastes. . . which they figured on collecting for essentially the cost of transportation. They found out the hard way that there were competing uses for their intended feedstock (turkey guts, as I recall) with paying customers.
Anyone know cites to published papers discussing the technology?
With respect to Tesla Motors, they use the same lithium-ion technology that blows up laptops and mobile phones on a regular basis. Even if Tesla uses super-high quality cells, how are they going to hold up if say, they're in a car parked under the Arizona sun for a few years? Or if the battery pack is replaced with third-party cells of dubious quality?
You may be able to make better points for a pure-electric transportation economy once carbon-nanotube ultracaps come out of the lab, if they do.
I have spent
the last 10 years working with Dr Gordon Dougal, medical doctor and scientist, exploring the
effects of infra red light on living cells. We started off using cold sores (herpes simplex) as a
clinical model to search for a therapeutic waveband of light within the infrared spectrum. After
treating many hundreds of cold sores, and utilising basic scientific principles with the help of
Durham University, we were successful in identifying 1072nm wavelength light to be
therapeutic with properties antagonistic to harmful ultra-violet light.
Tried finding 1072nm near-IR emitters lately?
I just spent 10 minutes searching, the stuff I've seen tops out at about 880 nm.
I was making more money than that in the late 1980s as an engineering technician. That's $12/hour. So anyone given a phony professional job title at, say, McDonald's is exempt?
management position in any of the algae to biofuel startups being built up now. Based on your posting, I've got an idea what your idea of "common sense and discretion" is and I'd really like to have you working for one of my competitors, given that I plan to go into the business.
The consumer electronics industry is big enough to beat Hollywood's best lobbying efforts out of chump change and buying them out with no more than a substantial committment of resources. A committment of resources comparable to a Hollywood buyout would make it possible to nail every elected chump Hollywood 0wNz The only thing they'll use their lobbyists for is things like extending the R&D tax credit and getting more H1Bs to replace American jobs.
As for why they have not used their resources to boot Hollywood out of DC, I don't know. Perhaps they'd rather tell us "we'd love to build some new classes of products, too bad Hollywood won't let us" while they wait for Japanese to innovate to the point where American companies can reverse-engineer. Perhaps they're still hypnotized by smoke-and-mirror presentation of the "pie in the sky" hypothetical profits from Hollywood - digital convergence. Perhaps they want an excuse to move all their R&D out using the *AA companies as excuse.
expect us as taxpayers to pay in order to protect their dying business model?
There is one area where I'd like to spend money on the *AA organizations. RICO Act investigations (we can start with their bot-generated extortion demands) are in order.
What an employee does off the job is his own business. If his off-the-job behavior impairs his workplace performance, then the employer has the right to do something about it.

A performance test measures "speed of reaction, vigilance and discrimination". It also doesn't care whether an employee is impaired because of illegal drugs, prescription drugs, OTC meds, alcohol, or lack of sleep.
Neither do I if the impaired person is going to fly a plane I'm going to be a paseanger of.
Drug testing is about lifestyle control by employers, not about protecting public safety.

However, the way I avoid the problem is building my own boxes and avoiding $10 "500W" PSUs. (IMO, anyone who buys one should put part of the savings into a fire extinguisher)

I'd fart in your general direction, but you'd probably enjoy that so I won't bother. At this point in time, ignorant zealots like you are a bigger obstacle to mass-market Linux than Microsoft is.
Perhaps if you were to do hard things like get acquainted with your own distro, you'd be less of a fanatic and more useful.

I bugged out of Fedora as of FC6. I don't know if it's still around, but there was a version of apt-get for Fedora available via repository as of then. I just looked:
apt-get is the automatic dependency resolver originally used by Debian. It works over dpkg in a similar way to how yum, smart or up2date use RPM. It is used to install packages and their dependencies automatically. It has been ported to use RPM and rpmlib by Conectiva and has been made available for Fedora. It is currently maintained at http://apt-rpm.org/ by PanuMatilainen from Red Hat.
As for the 'popularity' of Fedora / SuSE / RHEL. . . I'm sure that Dell took it into account when they picked Ubuntu as a distro for their new consumer Linux boxes. And laughed.
