I think the way it works is that it simply doesn't look for the logs unless there's an interaction between the two of you, for which the other user has to be logged in. I've actually experimented and seen logs repopulated to two fresh machines at the same time, so unless one of us was accidentally logged in on two different machines at once, I don't think it works according to your hypothesis.
On at least one occasion, circa 2006, I was required to have an ICQ account in order to collaborate with a software company for whom I was doing contract work from a remote location.
Skype keeps server logs as well. If you delete the cache in your local account directory, it will be repopulated the next time you log in and try to talk to that person.

Ubuntu Turns 7

But Desktop "LTS" receives upgrades for 3 years, and Server receives upgrades for 5. So yes, they care, because they want market share. I like to stay on the cutting edge, but for people I set up with Linux, I always give them an LTS release, because it turns out to be lower maintenance for me to support them.
As long as the search feature works, it isn't a problem.
On Mac: Dock for the common stuff, Spotlight (or "Stacks") for everything else.
Basically ditto for Ubuntu 11.04 with Unity. I don't get what the big deal is.
I should mention that my experience with classroom eco-projects (in a rural northern state) landed our group the state Governor's Award for Environmental Excellence and Pollution Prevention, and resulted in one of my classmates receiving the prestigious Brower Youth Award for Environmental Leadership, and produced a 501(c)3 that has received ~$80,000 in state and federal funding.
Mod this man up. The (solid) biofuel-oriented nonprofit I started here in VT began in a high school physics classroom.
Don't just get the students involved in the science, get them involved in applying the science in the community.
Home Thermal energy use (heating and cooling) is a much more accessible field to get budding environmentally minded scientists+engineers started in than the two "sexy" ones (transportation + electricity), but still takes up a similar proportion of the total energy pie, and I suspect even more than the other two given the locale.
Biomass (densified or gasified) makes for a great classroom project. Passive cooling also works well in climates like VT and Alaska, but to pull that off requires a much larger scale than works well in a classroom. You could still do something with insulation and learning about R-values though.
Computer Science is math or science depending on what you're doing. Whether you're proving things or collecting experimental results depends on what your area is. Software Engineering + ECE are engineering.
My lab had a research grant from NASA this summer with almost zero paperwork involved. Of course, whether or not we did anything useful is still up in the air.

Yes, Spaces lets you set the rules as well to force apps to launch in a specified desktop. That is exactly what I was pointing out to you in my previous post. I'm not sure why you felt the need to point out that kwin could do that too when we were discussing exactly that feature.
But no, I haven't used KDE in quite some time (exactly 3 years). But I have used OS X for a very very long time, and clearly do know what I am talking about (Spaces). I don't have to know KDE to respond to someone else's description of its features.

You should try OS X. We have these nifty things called Spaces. They don't have background images per desktop, but locking apps to a desktop (or set of desktops) is easy.

They've already solved this problem ;) http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2011/12/so-you-got-a-space-rocket-but-nowhere-to-launch-it/
Maybe I've too recently spent too much time looking at disassemblies, but I recognized it as x86 almost immediately.

I haven't heard anything good about Homebrew from anyone I know irl that has used it.
That actually happened several times. Ever heard of Louis Slotin or Harry Daghlian?
St. Helen's was NOT a "Supervolcano".

Damn. In 2004 I still thought Mandrake/Mandriva was hot shit. I don't think I used Ubuntu until Breezy or Dapper.
Yes. They can. It's called "LTS"

You're confusing homeopathy with naturopathy (and other "alternative medicines"). http://xkcd.com/765/
You're joking, right?

I haven't run into an infection yet that can't be gotten rid of with the Sysinternals suite. Usually takes me less than a half hour of work.
