Ya really, on my laptop which has a modest 1.8 ghz celeron M and 2 gb of ram, OO.o takes at most 10 seconds to start but it usually takes around 5 seconds
People may have doubted whether a former DDR Stasi employee would reform or continue with old ways of treating the public. Now all questions about this particular thug have evaporated.
I think that it is sad that people are such cowards that having their prescription histories made public would worry them.
It isn't about cowardice.
It's about not wanting your employer to maybe fire you because you have an AZT prescription or are on chemotherapy or are on medicine for ADD/ADHD and have a job working with million dollar custom surface-mount circuitry or are a neurosurgeon.
why would your employer fire you if you have one of those diseases when you are doing a good job?, I don't see why a competent employer would fire its best employees just because they have a disease
I know eh?, its not like you can't turn the damn device off or anything either.I have never understood cyber bullying because unlike in real life, there is a giant ignore button and/or you can leave the website on which this is happening. What a frightening new concept!
It would probably cost less then paying for support from a proprietary solution. I think its better then the alternative that a proprietary solution could go belly up and you would _have_ to switch to a different product
the thing is, since the source is available, then a business can just hire someone to work on it. If a proprietary solution became unsupported then you are SOL
But for 98% of the population, they don't *want* to touch that. They want their OS to work. They want it to install smoothly, have the drivers, have easy to install programs (which even ubuntu struggles with), and work. They don't want to have to get into the guts of the OS..
How is it hard to go to add/remove programs and click install?
I was intending to be funny. Couldn't you just compile it with -fno-exceptions to not have exceptions in C++? I also don't really understand why Google wouldn't allow exceptions at all because exceptions are pretty useful
I write my own implementation of the c standard library and the C++ standard library too, because I find they are not efficient enough and I find using the standard libraries bite me in the ass too
And obviously anyone that ever contributes code to any F/OSS project never gets paid, especially not the people that work at Google, IBM, Red Hat or Novell

no, THIS IS SPARTA
I think they changed that in Oo.o 3

You use a word processor to compose a document?, I'm surprised you don't use latex

As an Australian who fervently opposes Chairman Rudd's censorship bill...
I'm Australian too and I'm getting increasingly annoyed with Rudd. I find the man to be less than genuine
you don't say
I was joking but some ass modded me informative instead of funny which I had a few hours ago

Its called buying support from the numerous companies that sell support
OObOOOOnTOO!
There is your problem
Do these people not read the contracts at all?
How do they get away with that then?, a gigabyte is definably not worth $10,000
$10,000 per gigabyte?, I highly doubt that, I think you are missing a decimal somewhere because that seems really ridiculous
because that would be too easy

Were they pirates - no
Arr!
I'm going to design an os kernel with a point and click app, yay
