Because evil should be challenged, and the lies, hipocrisy, mind control and greed of religion is the greatest evil that currently exists.
Only when it scourge is eliminated can humans stop exerting effort to please an imaginary boss and start exerting effort to improve thier own existence.
Religion is a parasitic mental disease - one willingly spread from host to host - often from parent to child, that feeds on people's lack of understanding and ability to analyze the world from a critical perspective. The only people who understand the scam and the damage that is caused by it are those who are outside of religion, and those that run them. The sheep caught under the leader will go on, living thier lives trying to please a deity that, in the end, they will know never existed. Many religious people waste thier entire lives as slaves to an idea some guy made up thousands of years ago to gain control over a local village or region.
I was going to mention that you were being a little rough on the parent, until I saw you were beating yourself up... Which I suppose is ok in my book, as long as you know what you're doing.:)
Now, what exactly is your problem with porn? Or are you actully as much of a controlling, clueless ass as you sound? If you don't like using extensions to surf porn, then don't. Butt out of everyone else's life.
Damn, Hacker chicks are supposed to be cool, but you appear to suck.
Actually, there are not instructions on pulling it from cvs on that page. There are generic cvs instructions, and a dead link to a nonexistent part of the gnome cvs tree.
The documentation link is dead, and the link to recent cvs activity is dead. There are no download links, and no additional places to get tarballs indicated.

Actually, I generally leave before they kick me - I leave at the threat, and it's been considerably more than a few days. But thanks for remembering - maybe that means #gaim is starting to actually pay attention to what actual people actually want.
I do find it a little amazing that you find user problems in gaim every day - how broken is it? Or maybe you're just some fanboy twit making up stories. It's hard to say.
In general, the #gaim regulars are a bunch of jackasses. The latest stable,.76 has an annoying bug where if notifies you and asks for a response in the event that it needs to reconnect. This in turn raises problems with metacity, which gives focus to any new window, and now reconnection, instead of being something that happens magically behind the scenes by magic, is a 20-second clickfest of annoyance popups, randomly interrupting work.
Mentioning this topic (or any other user-centric topic) in #gaim will get you kicked pretty quickly.
I say the more forks (although this does not appear to be a fork) the better - there are several user-centric forks of GAIM, and hopefully one of them will stick.
And then change it again, once you've logged a dozen hours or so, and you realize all that candy sweetness is there to keep you from noticing how it's mostly unix with a sham thrown over it.
The problem (the very one his group is trying to deal with) is that there is no proof indicating that there is any sort of global warming (or cooling or swinging) going on at all, no proof that such a warming (or cooling or swinging) isn't perfectly normal, no proof that CFC's are causing anything, and no proof that the added cost of recycling actually helps anything in the long run.
These are all unproven theories, without any facts to back them up. The fact that they are *scary* theories is what makes governments like Canada and California jump on them without researching them.
If they now have pedigree on every line of linux... Will they please publish it? Every single line, with an attribution credit next to it.
They would have had to build one of these in order to declare it free of violations, right? Please, publish this on a website, and give the community the tools required to defend itself.
Didn't SGI admit to a blunder where they introduced tainted code?
That would indicate that at least some versions of 2.4 didn't pass the sniff test, and therefore "2.4 free of copyright violations" already needs some clarification.
These are good people, finding an interesting way to make a buck, but it's impossible - flat out im-poss-i-ble that in 6 months, they conclusively guaranteed that every line is original thought with a clean pedigree.
If they had come back with a list of 300 questionable sections, and a version of linux that has those questionable sections removed (and worked with a limited number of features) I would be far more prone to believe.
This announcement sounds like hopeful zealotry, pure marketing, or worse for us all, incompetence.
... SUN1 heavy, come about to runway 101010. You may begin your final approach. We're laying down crash foam and keeping DEC's old hangar warm for you.
If you survive, there are some jackals from Microsoft who'd like to speak with you in the lobby - after they're done spreading nails on the tarmac.

Religion is a lie. Liars suck.
8 cups, give or take.

RPN is great for entering complex formulas without having to enter or balance parentheses.
Is this actually usable? Or even downloadable?

My first mono experience is a little sub-par.
It's another closed-source implementation of the WinAPI by a company I dont trust, only this one is much smaller, and with less resources.
That's AWESOME!
Off topic, but ... Are there any examples of actual projects using mono that I could try out right now? (On Linux.)
.. Anything?
Web apps, desktop apps, utilities
Oh, it's fanboy twit. Gotcha.

Maybe it's so when the courts try to force MS to open it's source in the coming decade, they can tell Congress
"It's wrong to call us closed source. We have had core features of our OS open sourced since 2004! On SourceForge, even!"

I guess we could do it your way, but won't your legs get tired, pedalling all those kids to school?
Well, that's a petty attitude.

Aw heck - that would have been funny, if it was on the correct story. :)
