History repeats itself over and over and still people get behind companies and cheer away ("oh! google is not evil. m$ is evil. no wait, google is evil not apple is not evil"). How many times was Google/Android used as premise for complaining against Apple/Microsoft. How many times IBM was that excuse. How many times an "open source" company was deemed trustful.
Newspapers were usually where good journalism happened ("were" because 99% of them is just biased political articles and/or celebrities). Some of them like the NYT have started to charge, in what I hope is an attempt to keep good journalism viable.
But I doubt they would ever complain if someone referred a CUSTOMER to their website. Someone that would either drive the ad clicks up and/or subscribe. That is insane.
I guess these newspapers in Ireland do deserve to die. Natural selection.
Really, it's getting boring. I'm using Win8 for 2 months now and it works fine... my desktop at work is CentOS and I've been using Fedora for years at home.
Some people like it. Some people don't. That's life.
I suppose the WTF part will be about jerks thinking the prank was funny, right?
You know when a prank is bad when the people doing it won't bother telling the guy he was pranked ("At this point we caved and uninstalled the software"). It affords a "oh! ok" at most.
They just want something cheap. Prepare your IT department to suffer (if the open source solution is not up to par with the proprietary one that your company initially wants).

I think currently is the key word here.

I see what you did there.
Sheeeesh. You're sounding too rational for /.
Don't move, leave slowly. Nobody will get hurt.

IT is a freaking fashion industry.
Getting older sucks.
I tried F18 Beta and the installation was awful. Not very intuitive.
It felt like they are chasing Ubuntu's installation experience but failing.

People learn to work with new things even if it takes some effort.
Are we measuring the nanoseconds that users are wasting? Or worried about our grandparents? They can adapt too.
All these UI discussions seem more about people trying to impose their preferences on other people than anything remotely rational.
Mauro is only working on keep the Linux audio subsystem as bad as it always has been ;)
Agreed. When Linus flipped the bird over to Nvidia, people cheered.
Now he's doing that to a fellow kernel developer, and it's not fun... but it's the same behavior.
One cannot say Linus is not consistent.
Windows 8 can't even prevent a kernel driver running in privileged space from doing this? Ewww...
It's very hard to live in a constant state of fear and paranoia. Better to unplug and relax.
Isn't hiding that information somewhere difficult to find (but still possible for someone determined to) the very definition of security by obscurity?
Any criminal determined enough could look this database somewhere and rob these houses.
1) Determine why you are listed
2) Change your infrastructure to avoid that in the future (port 587, auth, etc)
3) Be patient, watch it work

He forgot that 2013 is the year of the Linux desktop.
Much appreciated.

Agreed. 3D rarely adds anything and good movies don't need distracting visual effects: they have a good story.
But I'm intrigued by 48fps so I might watch the 3D version just in case.
Where do I sign?
Sincere question because just "spent $10k on it" does not tell much.
You'll learn in time.
Got it and I agree.
