Let me just add this: They won't talk TLS to any mail server, just amongst each other. And if you send a mail from Web.de to GMX you get a warm fuzzy icon in the web interface.
Oh, but that's exactly the point here. I guess these three providers handle about 80% of germanies email traffic.
So a lot of mail traffic went directly from T-Online to Web.de. And these three companies were unable (or unwilling) to activate TLS in their configs until now.
Compositing window managers are just a bad idea for anything besides office work: * problems with gaming, even in fullscreen mode * problems with hd video playback, tearing * problems with suspend
First you can't assume something is named as *you* would expect it. More often than not operations are named by people who know what they are doing, but the people using the software only have a faint idea about their task. That's normal: as users search for the best/easiest way to accomplish a task they learn the vocabulary and methods of the specific field, thus becoming specialists themselves.
Regarding documentation, take a look at GUI users, they have to read this GUI. It's basically a book, think formulary: You have to read every menu to "know" the software. Users take a spatial approach, remembering places to click on. This explains why nobody wants to use the "new" MS Office, they don't want to memorize the menus again. And to be honest, to really know a GUI you have to click them all and see how these menus and dialogs interact.
Anyways, both systems have their strength.
64bit flash beta worked fine, but with all this bugs around and the beta closed.. no more flash for me. Never touching this nspluginwrapper crap again.
Guess I just go and build myself an ffmpeg enabled chromium browser to watch youtube..
It's really not that complicated... You have a boss who makes the rules
Not everybody has a boss. Especially in large government organizations it might be difficult to find your boss. If you're a department head, or project lead it's more a question of who is in charge of what.
In a complex organizational structure sub-systems often fight against each other for control of key infrastructure and personnel.
How do you get these ideas? Firefox has never been as popular as it is now.
And except chrome all the alternatives you named have been around for ages. And besides Chrome is just another webkit browser like Safari.
No, I don't think they ever liked it. From the start Google wasn't offering all its products and had a differianted position on the state censoring and human rights violations. They werren't offering blogs, for example, since they didn't want to cooperate with the chinese police on that issue. This was stated publicly by Google.
Competing with a state owned search gigant, while the same state steals your property, can't be much fun for Google.

Well, it's 2013 and they were talking plain text all this time?
And by the way: GMX/WEB.de aka "United Internet" has a data center in the Cansas.
I'm under the impression Ubuntu Unity is based on gnome3, too. Compare the running processes, there is not much difference.
I guess Bradleys state was kind of normal for the army: SNAFU.
Yeah right XFCE: as slow as gnome, but all the useful stuff (configuring external displays, automounting) does not work.
Actually it was last year. http://www.netmarketshare.com/report.aspx?qprid=9&qpaf=&qpcustom=Linux&qptimeframe=M&qpsp=143&qpnp=13
You missed it.
I can't stand Windows 95 interfaces any longer.
Well, of course that doesn't mean Linus is wrong with his comments on Gnome.
Gnome 3 is great. I'm looking forward to the next release. I used Unity for two days and switched.
I'm certain the Gnome team will get most issues fixed soon, as did the KDE team with their 4.0 version.
Gnome is still heavily backed by Redhat, as Unity is by Ubuntu. And seriously, who do you think will write the better code?
You are using Windows without ever touching the command line, seriously?
Isn't Mint just a fork from Ubuntu with a few extra packages in the repository and a few homebrewn apps?
My guess is, people 'flock' to Mint, because Mint 11 is still on Gnome 2. Last time I checked Mint application version numbers were far behind Ubuntu.
I just want to go back to Debian unstable, but I'm soooo lazy.
you may use sudo -i as well.
Benchmarked:
* Nexuiz
* Open Arena
* Warsow
* World of Padman
* Urban Terror
I'd be interested in Wine performance: Word of Warcraft with OpenGL, borderless window mode in a dual monitor/twinview setup.

You basically start an X server inside wayland and are done with it.
Actually my provider does: If I'd buy internet, phone and TV these would be three different vlans.

That's not insightful, that's funny.

And if I ever work phone support again I will assume everything, absolutely everything the person on the other end tells me is a blatant lie.
Is it plugged in? yes? LIER! It it turned on? yes? LIER! Can you see any messeges on the screen? no? LIER!
Why do they lie!??!?
They want you to do their work.
Wait till you see the 64-bit version of flash, it has twice the number of bits!!
