    Ah. That'd be yer problem right there.

  2. Re:Makes Sense on Solar Panels Increase Home Value · · Score: 1

    If home generation technology ever becomes a necessity our power delivery infrastructure will have failed. In which case there will be bigger things to worry about than the housing market.

  3. Re:and where's heisenberg? on Speed Tickets Challenged Based On Timestamped Photos · · Score: 1

    In order for the time stamps to measure EXACT time the picture is taken you need a realtime clock running in the focal plane.

    Or you need to create the time stamp while you're signalling the shutter to open and close.

    Compizconfig Settings Manager lets you configure the taskbar hiding. To get rid of the awful global menu, edit /etx/X11/Xsession.d/80appmenu so that UBUNTU_MENUPROXY gets set to the empty string. Mine looks like this:

    if [ -f /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/menuproxies/libappmenu.so ]
    then
    #NO FUCKING GLOBAL MENU, IF YOU PLEASE.
    export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=
    #export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY="libappmenu.so"
    fi

    Gnome Do stomps menus and docks with regard to 2). It's a lot like start menu search introduced in Windows Vista. I don't have to care about the menu hierarchy ever again.

    So where does the other 44% of the power go?

  11. Re:I'm not convinced by either on GNOME vs. KDE: the Latest Round · · Score: 1

    Unity is absolutely not optimal on a 7" netbook, at least the last time I tried it. With only 800 horizontal pixels, the fixed width vertical panel causes so much side-scrolling as to make the machine unusable.

  12. Re:Idiots on Convicted Terrorist Relied On Single-Letter Cipher · · Score: 1

    Harry Potter is published in localized versions. You'd have to use something that would be the same no matter where you bought it.

    Quit it with this '20 Gb/s' bullshit. 10 Gb/s full duplex is 10 Gb/s. You're just like those swindlers who advertise gigabit ethernet as '2000 Mb/s'.
