I hear this a lot but does it actually happen much, surely the ubuntu, debian, redhat, ect, guys are all working on the same NetworkManager tree, the same upstart tree, etc?
you mean like a stable userland API? or perhaps the fact that all desktops run Xorg servers that are compatible?
Perhaps your looking for a unified toolkit or interface design, that's the only thing that is really missing, but there is a good reason for that, i don't want an uncompromisable interface with 2 options and gnome users don't want my bloated interface with 30 buttons everywhere.
I suspect your laws are similar to what we have in the UK, in theory to pull you over / search you they need reasonable suspicion, in practice they can just make shit up.
I was agreeing with you, btw if you are having problems with torrents or other background tasks interfering with your foreground processes, you may want to use ionice -c3 $PID so that they only use idle I/O time.
Ram is also used for caching the file system. So unless you have more RAM than HDD space your performance will improve somewhat with more RAM.
and how does the data get onto the ram may i ask? magic? no its limited by I/O throughput (sure a bit of caching means you dant take a seek time hit quite so often but its hardly gonig to help with i/o based tasks.
Because i intend to keep my laptop. i have no intention of letting my laptop out of my sight on a buzy bus/tube/station, i even know a guy that had his laptop (with a full set confidential documents) ripped of his back by closing tube doors.
If the election is not close, it clearly has no effect on the end result. It can only matter if the election is close.
And here's the thing - if the election is close enough, then no system will accurately measure the result. We have a situation, well understood in the world of science, where the noise is louder than the signal. The result of any binary discriminator in this situation is effectively random.
While you are right that all elections ave a margin of error and that 2% is better than 3%, in a proportional representation system (as the link in GGP suggests) 2% can make a difference (changing the lead by up to 8 seats)
you are aware that there is no stable branch of linux right. so linus has the right to change the way the linux kernel handles content, whenever he wants.
yeah there are a lot of fastboot patches that got into.28 (unfortunately some did not because despite working they were not elegant enough for linus, but will be reworked for.29/.30, hopefully)
I think Xorg is the chokepoint in your average distro now, but i hear the intel guess did some work there too:D
when i broke my old laptop i 'upgraded' to one with an ATI chipset, how i year for the days of intel. now i have to choose between full-screen flash and composting (thanks to iplayer i went with flash)
if it is impossible to uninstall konqueror and still browse files, then your distro has packaged it wrong. i strongly dislike dolphin but i can see its appeal for many users, so i just stick with, konqueror support for using it as a file manager isn't going away anytime soon.
It also seems like it might connect to Kontact. If so, well, Kontact is much better than Evolution, last I checked.
Really? im a kde user and ive stuck with kontact + ktorrent to avoid the hastle of setting up thunderbird/azureus, but both are somewhat lacking. ive not used evolution but kmail is (or was in 3.5) seriously in need of some work
Otherwise with an original install CD the machine is compromised before I can even download SP1.
WTF are you doing?
www.microsoft.com click updates. not www.warez.com, clink install keygen.
Yeah we have daily mail readers here. you cant even call the queens pussy haunted, without getting 1000 people that didn't even watch it complaining.
But unlike now it was widely accepted in Roman/Greek times.
any idea who the music is by? also wouldn't the fact the lyrics are fuck the veg (with veg not-said clearly) mean they were trying to get it banned.

Unless you have a level of uniformity

I take it your laptop is a windows box then.
That's all very well but, have you asked it yet?

add in an about:config override for developers ofc, so if people can choose to accept 3rd party keys.

any specifics on how the design is better? its nice to say that but i think GP was looking for information not anecdotes

Seriously, their QA department has been AWOL for the last couple of releases.
erm arn't the users the QA on fedora?

I never said anybody was doing it right, but surely you can make konqueror depend on kdolphinkpart without the horible sidebars or toolbars
the term RC is abused so much these days ;( but 1RC is what all projects should plan. 1 beta makes sense if you consider it a service pack for vista

And SOX compliance is more than just archiving. You need to be able to produce subsets of your email when requested, etc.
Archiving AND search?
im with GP, SOX compliance is just FUD

wow i knew linux was good but it can drive cars now too? that sir/madam/asshole is truly amazing, where can i find out more?
