    Phone number? How strange.

    Not only that, Simplified Chinese just doesn't make much sense since it randomly removes part of a word to make it "simple", instead of using a scholar educated approach. It is said that Simplified Chinese is one of the greatest threat to the Chinese culture; it reduces meaningful characters to mere random symbols (e.g. love without heart?, ability becomes wood?).

  3. Re:are you kidding? on War Brewing on the Inexpensive Laptop Front · · Score: 1

    I am talking about managing/adminstrating mobile device, so obviously I wasn't referring to the SSH client, but SSH server.

    As far as I can tell, Windows Mobile cannot run SSH or any other essential application needed for administrations, so it doesn't scale well compare to UNIX. I believe you should do more research before posting, *NIX on mobile is very mature, compares to say Windows.

    I agree that capitalism is not democracy, doing so as good as saying a cat is a dog... Capitalism exists with or without democracy, as long as people are greedy, it will work. But in a pure capitalic society, where everything and service is a commodity to sell off, what does it meant for the people? The poor will have no access to the education and health care system, the rich will only get richer as long as they are not too stupid. But at any rate, democracy simply has nothing to do with it, although they can coexist. Democracy is a mean to ensure peaceful transition between different legions and a mean to reduce harm done by a foolish leader. If leaders are not foolish, democracy indeed offers nothing but inefficiency. Democracy is not an end, but a mean.

    As far as I know, TCP/IP does not guaranteed error rate, it is all statistic. It isn't unusal for large file to get corrupted over network cable, especially over crappy cable, such as those in a dial-up connection. The protocol just isn't made to handle high noise.

    It never happens to me. Are you using extensions? Have you tried disabling the extensions?

  8. Re:Stop crying, people. Start being HONEST. on OOXML Rumored to be Approved, Announcement Wednesday · · Score: 1

    What is with this highly prejudice statement. You can't just assume everyone who hate Microsoft have no mind, mind you. Of course, trolls are the most visible population, but it doesn't meant those who disagree with Microsoft are all short-sighted. It doesn't matter who created OOXML, the problem is the proposal, which was hardly up to standard, but was pushed just because some large corporations have big money. The voting proccess is nothing but a joke.

    Where has the good old days where WordPerfect was a competition gone? Oh well...

    1. Yes, being able to scale the text using mouse is much preferred, as far as I can tell, it isn't possible to scale the text yet. Or were you referring to layer transforms? I don't think anyone would use that to scale text as that would destroy the text object. 2. Adjustment layers is useful for applying and concatentating effect, I don't see how GEGL can replace that. (I have never heard of it until I "googled", Adobe people sure come up with funny names. It is called "Lens" since version 7 of Corel PhotoPAINT) 3. Layer effect? Isn't that adjustment layers? 4. Clipping mask is Layer mask. 5. There is one. It is called brush selection dialog (you can call it toolbar). But I do agree that it isn't the most usable way to make brush selection (it would be nice to have shortcut key for each basic brush). 6. Yes, we need CYMK support. Beside CYMK support, we definitely need a better script recorder that let user record their actions into scripts to be edited or processed. To me, this feature is more important than anything mentioned above, which I can do without.
