If Ubuntu omits Firefox, it will be the first thing I do on any new version, is remove Chromium, and to manually install Firefox.
Until Chromium has addons like Firefox I'm not interested in using it. If they actually go with Chrome, that will be a joke. I actually value my privacy rights, and I don't want Google's browser snooping on me, and reporting my web usage to their advertising servers.
I simply don't think that is confirmation. It's one sentence, as a throw-away line at the end of the article, and they don't even credit anyone as telling them that. I"m still waiting to hear this from Valve. I really don't think the news of a Linux client will spread via anonymous source.
However, Valve has not "confirmed" anything in regards to the Linux client. Phoronix has been talking about a Linux client for a good 6 years now, and just because they found evidence of an internal client at Valve, it is not in any way "confirmation" of a public Linux client. Let's not forget that Blizzard has had an internal WoW client they've used since the game was in BETA, but they've never made plans to release it officially.
I'd love to see it, but Valve has not confirmed anything in regards to Linux.
The Slashdot Trolls all agree; Ubuntu is the worst OS ever made, and only caters to retards!
Which means it actually may be getting close to the year of the Linux Desktop. After all, it's actually becoming usable by "morons", a.k.a. people that have a life.
So if those people don't like questions from newbies, then why do they willingly go into forums where newbies are asking questions when they AREN'T AT WORK?
Doctors don't hang around the WebMD forums on their off time ridiculing those who didn't go to med school...
Well to be fair, you were using a beta version. You can't early adopt an OS when it's in beta, and then complain when it doesn't work perfectly.
If you did all of this and loaded Debian last week, you certainly weren't even using an RC copy. It's your own fault for installing a beta OS on your server..
Oh you mean you have to show that you actually work as a journalist by showing proof of your employer? That's a lot different than "registering" as one. You have to actually work as one, and be able to prove it. I don't think that's a huge burden for actual journalists.

No they simply pull these numbers out of their asses to justify their crusade.
Teabaggers self-applied that name, before someone tipped them off to what it meant. It's not my problem you guys are totally clueless.
So what is the left's version of Drill Baby Drill?
Too busy chanting Drill Baby Drill.
If you can't handle the leak, you shouldn't be drilling that deep underwater. Period.
These idiots used DRILL BABY DRILL as a campaign slogan. Now they want to forget that ever happened.
Don't install 100 addons, and there is no bloat or memory mismanagement.
Of course Firefox is losing support among the OSS front. It's feature-rich, and is widely used.
Perfect time to turn our backs on it, and kill it!

I love people who rant about freedom as they try to tell other people what to do.
You just can't make shit like this up!
MS bludgeons XPSP2 to death like a small defenseless kitten.

Nailed 'Em!
How about you STFU and re-read the OP.
Count me out. I'll continue downloading Lost commercial-free, for free.

You do know you can always install Gimp if you want to use it, right?
Now if only there was some fast mirrors. Even the torrent is slow ATM.

Then become a journalist. No one is saying you don't have access to the rights of a journalist, you just have to actually, you know, BE ONE.
