I've used Debian, Ubuntu and Mint. Switched to KDE because of the mess that Unity/Gnome Shell is and am loving it. NetRunner is the most polished KDE distro in my opinion and it comes from the company, that now sponsors Kubuntu.
If you're going to used Pidgin and custom plugins, what's stopping you from using XMPP instead of Skype?
You're missing the point here, the problem with Skype is that it's perceived as easy to use and it was the first popular one on the market, so it's crazily widespread. I use Jabber with my family, employees and other people whose computers I can control. I use Jabber with some technical people whose computers I do not control. But I gotta use Skype with non-technical people I can't influence about software they use.
I find it quite amusing, that the software that comes from creators of Kazaa, which uses the same P2P methodology that was developed to help people bypass government- and law-restrictions is now being used to spy on people.
Twitter Bootstrap and the likes are the way to go IMO. Even though initial creation time might be a tad faster with WYSIWYG tools, it's a pain to AJAXify, optimize for speed and size, request count and maintain in the longer period of time. It is also almost impossible to use diff tools and source version control software on machine-generated code. And, everyone that would like to modify the page needs an expensive piece of software.
People do not want to admit that death==nonexistence so they make-up imaginary "trips" to some other place (heaven, hell, Elysian Fields, space, whatever). In reality Sally Ride's personality dissolved into nothingness at the moment her brain's neurons broke connection with one another when they were deprived of oxygen.
+1 Uncomfortably True, but...
Is this really a place and time to write something like that? I guess if someone close to you dies, that's too all you're gonna have to say?
There are just about 20 or so keywords one has to learn in most of programming languages and one has to learn them anyway, even if they are in one's native language. And if they translate all libraries and APIs -- this makes it harder to learn, because one will only find a subset of forums, stackoverflow posts, etc. while googling about the problem at hand.
Why not place a world map with nuclear waste storage sites on it? Sure, continents drift, but people in million years should know about past shape of the world the same we do.
If our grandchildren ever manage to get out of the oil trouble and they start building cities on Moon, let's make it even harder for them. Space debris is not enough, let's contaminate the Moon, too.
I'm just surprised that anyone who'd be concerned about his wife getting access would simultanously feel the need to have separate accounts. I'm curious what's the use case for such an account.
Slashdot Mirror
I am genuinely curious, especially if I think about all the spaghetti code I have available here.
It's really getting old to have it under half of the submissions.
Which he didn't use when registering.

i860? Wow, you must be from the far future, we only have i7 here.
If you don't need attention, how is that you believe that Slashdot won't forward your IP to authorities?

But, Lynx is already taken by a text browser ;-)
Were you trying to create a website, where YouTube videos are converted to animated GIFs on the fly? ;-)

So, if I go to a gym and "torture" myself, I won't be able to log in either?
...to make me play that "game" to log in?

You could abuse them a bit, start a project and use the bugtracker. If you don't want to share the code - don't commit it there.
Or they just use misspell words to bypass spam filters. I know it doesn't work NOW but it used to work.
I would agree with you if "more online choices" didn't consist of a single choice.

It has to be an even BIGGER bird.

Care to share your cron script that checks if user is alive? ;-)
Why would a husband have separate account from his wife in the first place?
Don't worry, I'm sure it's not a _FREE_ PR.
