Not every second, third, or even tenth person can afford an SSD. When it's a choice between 250GB or 2TB, guess which wins? Better use a 10500 rpm Raptor drive.
Since I ran #! on the netbook, I chose it for my desktop as well! I partitioned for 2 others, so I'm looking at openSuse and CentOS to play around in. My first tri-boot!
Boot times don't worry me (for the desktop), what does concern me is system stability, something universal in the *nix world anyways. For the netbook I'd opt for a lighter distro anyway, making boot time moot once again.
I'm still on 10.10, considering a new distro this weekend.
Not available in my country either (South Africa). I meant Google Chat which supports voice/video over the net, whereas Voice is net-to-land. Sorry for confusion.
Not used this myself, but heard on the FOSS weekly podcast about http://www.jitsi.org/:-)
When I want to comment on news sites, I count to 3 and rethink if I _really_ need to comment. 70% of those would-be comments were useless.
User moderation rocks if users are involved and passionate to improve the site. I find a lot of people just don't care when they comment, they use cryptic grammar, incomplete thoughts, and spelling that can only be explained by poor focus/intention, a bad crack habit or too much sugary snacks.
Without that focus, ninety percent of commenters post 70% of useless comments.* While that happens, comment systems will suffer.
The fantasy of having your own currency (points) is alluring to people, in thought, but the reality is less fun. With so many monetaries for each network, don't you get confused between their value systems?
I hate it when companies try to be clever by making something complicated.
Once more, Linus Torvalds had a surprising but wise answer. He stated that Microsoft and its programs were of no particular interest to him, since he didn't use Windows himself. He had worked on Linux for his own amusement, not because he had an axe to grind with Microsoft or anybody else.
One user account in one RA was compromised. The attacker created himself a new userID (with a new username and password) on the compromised user account.

(6) capture sound and video, great fun making game videos!
shameless self promotion -- sadly youtube compression kills the retro pixelation :(
Heck, you can even surf the internet in Power Point. (ep#2)
"this will be the first full-bodied version of Windows that won't (initially) be susceptible to viruses and malware"
So it's Windows without a purpose.

Is this a /. bug? Had to remove the leading slash from /dev/root otherwise the line did not start on a new line. WTF?

Excellent link, thanks!

It also works via Empathy
Only net-to-land calls that are restricted to certain countries, net-to-net work internationally.
Very. At 29.793611s 29.339167e (Google maps) it's spectacular.

The device connects via your TiSP wireless router, of course!
Nothing wrong with single player games, IMHO. Aside, Quake ended with Q2.

A fair assumption but the reality is different. :-)

He forgot to thank the person responsible for encrypting their drives and covering their trac... oh wait. Never mind.
BWHA HA HA HA!
You only need 3 steps to profit
One user account in one RA was compromised.
The attacker created himself a new userID (with a new username and password) on the compromised user account.
In lay terms, a sales rep login was compromised, and used to issue the certs. And we all know what sales guys are like, don't we. ;-D
