Imagine that the tabs are there all the same. Now but a button beside them called tab manager. If clicked, you get a new windows showing *only* tabs in some structured way (trees, maps, wathever). If the user rovers the mouse on one of them, he get a prevew. If he click with the right button, it closes this new windows AND selects the clicked tab. If he clicks with the left button he gets a couple of extra operations (color change, move inside de grapth, duplicate, throw it in a new window, etc).
There are cool games on linux. Not as cool as Crysis, but its not like you only get solitare either:
- America's Army
- Sauerbraten
- Nexuiz
- Enemy Territory
- Battle for Wesnoth
- Warzone 2100
- Glest
- Bos Wars
- Globulation 2
- Spring
No, they are stunned. Too many changes at once. Too much visual noise due to radical redesign of the interface. If only this changed, they would notice, but there is a huge ribbon thingy taking their attention
But they were migrating from windows to linux. No reason at all to retain some cross logic. But when we talk about word 2003 and 2007, its a whole different ball game. It is supposed to be used by the same people
The point is you actually have to tell people about it. I've been watching people migrate to word 2007. Most of them didn't realize that the big word icon on the top left corner was hiding the original File menu.
This is applied to visualization. No impact whatsoever on printed docs. The anti aliasing we are talking about is to keep your screen smooth. At least that is my understanding on the subject
What?! Were?! Are you calling me an asshole?! Jokes appart, parent said the guy was more of a nerd than an asshole and I disagreed with him.
He does express them in a way that's unnecessarily offensive and combative. But that doesn't make him an asshole. That makes him a typical geek!
My reply:
I'm sorry to disagree, but that make him an asshole. A geeky one, but basically an asshole
From were I came, this is called discuss, talk, disagree or argue. Nothing assholish by any means.
Maybe you didn't understand my argument. I will try to explain: his BEHAVIOR makes him an asshole, and his BACKGROUND makes him a nerd. The fact that both happens together doesn't mean one thing causes the other.
Duke is a complicated piece. I do agree that is was outdated with respect to the technology, but the gameplay and mostly the general attitude of the game is fantastic! The main character has a personality and a very peculiar one. This is quite uncommon on FPS and just absent on Quake. I was a really fun game to play!
I downloaded the game again a couple of days ago and even today the game remains fun. Oh, did I said download? I meant reainstall...
As our hero would say: "Mmmm I'm afraid on no Quake"

Strange. My printer works even better that on windows. I hadn't to install anything.
Its called pidgin.
Oh, about the games.... That's a point where is are absolutely right. Unfortunately
Note that this WILL solve his problem!

Now yours and everyone else's workflow:
1)
2)
6) (remove the *if*. Comments are interesting even if TFA isn't)
7)
8)
Now it sounds like slashdot :-)
And please, don't forget the most important rule of all: DRTFA (don't RTFA)
One thing does not dismiss the other. The article say things that aren't true anymore, even if the linux market on desktop is small.

Would you care to say which institution? Just asking cause I'm curious. I am not challenging you ;-)
Mmmm. No. Correlation is not causation. The example is about physicists. It doesn't mean that only them can do it
Ni!
First: not everyone, just the guy who posted the message! ;-)
Second: not, he does not. He was just being funny and sarcastic at the same time! At least I got it this way...
It was, but don't forget we got a reboot. Old rules aren't necessarily being enforced anymore ;-)
... welcome our new cyber criminal pseudo nuclear not quite self descructable overlords.

Because on that place there used to be a smaller app logo that did almost nothing (close, resize, maximize, etc). People learned to ignore that area

I have to confess that I prefer a 95ish look than that ribbon thingy

His point was that all this options came on office 2007. Oo is doing it for a long time. Maybe MS got the ideia from Oo? Who knows?
But I digress. The worst part of MS Office nowadays is that rubber bar. People can disagree, but IMO it sucks quite a lot

Its a testament to my nerdiness! Better, its a testament to the nerdiness of us all, and this is the only place were this is actually a compliment.
After 13 year waiting for a release, I would prefer a "Duke Nukem TODAY". Thank you sir. ;-)
Mmm. I hated Doom 3 for the lack of light during game play, but the lightning technology was awesome!
