Thankfully, Google is not the internet, and blocking something on Google will not block it nationwide (like China). But if you're bothered by the control search providers inherently have over you, I suggest you find one you trust or stop using them althogether. Just in case.
With all of this opt-in sudo-security breaking, Fedora could be looking into Windows of an AbsoluteVector that results in gettting the Boot and being thrown in the Bin.
Considering all of the Linux people here are blasting this move as much as they blasted UAC (which was a terrible implementation) I don't see what hypocracy exists.
Dammit you're screwing it all up. MP3 users are the average chumps we laugh and make fun of. "HA, they're using 128kbps MP3's encoded with iTunes!" Then you extemportate about why this matters to anyone until someone mods you up for just being so awesome.

That was probably my fourth or fifth installation in Yum (I got alacarte, RPMfusion and the updates before that).
I just tried another package. It went faster than before, though still paused a lot more than apt-get does (it was the program, not the download speed). Fedora 11 did that, too - I used it for about a month and it was still pretty sluggish. It's certainly not as slow as whatever Sabayon was using, though, and it's definitely livable this time around.
I'll be honest - this Fedora release is pretty damn good. I may have found a new home. Well done.

I am discussing it. Settle down.
I'm running Fedora 12 right now. Yum takes a long time to refresh. Installing those Droid fonts that Google made took about five minutes, where apt-get would take about five seconds.
My computer is a Core 2 Duo E9300 with 4 GB of RAM. So it's certainly not the computer. And if Ubuntu can manage to do something that much faster than Fedora, I think I have something to base my assertion on. Other than that, though, Fedora's pretty good, so you can put your flame thrower down and get on with attacking random people on Slashdot as if that's something worth doing.

yum is nice (but slow),
Yes. this is the only thing keeping me from using Fedora - Yum is mindbogglingly slow.
Because demanding an answer from a man in the government on the question of "is he a terrorist?" because of his nationality is totally and utterly justified. Right. Do us a favor and go away, and take Beck with you.
College institutions sometimes offer night classes for the community. In the community you may have immigrants, foreign students brushing up their skills, etc. Besides, if a class you are teaching is made up of primarily a certain designation of students (which happens - they tend to travel in packs, consciously or unconsciously), and they have a certain need, you meet that need as a teacher. That's part of what you're getting paid to do.
If those poor kids have to go through anything like I did, they will be "taught" how to use Powerpoint no less than fifty times throughout their school career. Not that any of the teachers actually know Powerpoint well enough to teach it.
Perhaps your professor used a Powerpoint when he or she was teaching you about socialism or communism, because you don't seem to understand those words.

"Linux for Human Beings and their noodly appendages.".
Oh, so when did the Pastafarians start funding Ubuntu?
Thanks for assuming the AC was a Linux user, and represents an entire community as a whole. Yup, we all have these prejudices; we're like a hive mind.
Then this product is not for you. Simple as that.
Exactly. Three words: credit card companies. They want the customers who can't pay anything off; they get the most money from those people.
It's not a full computer concept in play. It's like saying (Gruber time) that you want a bicycle and a car instead of two cars.
Then they would be running Ubuntu or Mac OS X by now, doncha thing?
Mod parent funny.
iGloves and iMask are an extra $55 on your repair bill.

I, unlike you, feel no shame.

I, on the other hand, think that Midori is a far better solution.

Have you heard ThruYOU? That might change your mind.
Hey, Mr. Summary, enough with the fair and balanced. Make up my mind for me on this issue! Where does this law stand?
I want my old Internet back. And a pony.
If Slashdot does OMG Ponies again will that satisfy your wants and needs?
You forgot to rant about Mono.

They're pretty common. Sometimes they're on the website, but all of the books I bought this term have Powerpoints.
