There's a button to "use OS dialog" that solves the issue.
I don't know what the benefit of the Adobe dialog (designed in flash) is supposed to be, but I assume it has to do with their versioning software that I never use.
I really like consistent file open/close diologs, and feel Windows lacks them the most (if you count gnome and kde apps as separate on Linux), then Linux, with OSx the best, but all the commercial software I'm exposed to (Adobe, Quark, Office primarily) shit all over OS conventions. I really like KDE, though I assume other software ported would suck just as much as on Windows or OS X. The idea of desktop consistency is total bunk when it comes to "important" commercial software.
That's barely slower than commercial software, and I don't think GIMP has any big sponsorships.

GIMP is slower, but I see 2.0 released in '04, that gives 4 versions in 8 years. 1.2 was way earlier, but the 2.x branch has been doing pretty reasonable release rates.
From what I remember when the not-monetizing was going on, Louis C.K. said that it was less than he would of received early on (first couple of day in). When he had the million he said it was more money than he ever imagined would be in the checking account, and felt a need to spread the wealth.
The second $250,000 is implied to be an optional payment because he made so much, with the first $250,000 paying their normal wages.
Well, I specifically asked the employees if it was OK, and they said it was.
I was up-front and honest about what I was doing, and it was even suggested I buy all three at once, then return two, I did not because I did not want to float the $300.
The return policy allows returns for unsatisfactory products, the first set I purchased was indeed satisfactory (could not hear my podcasts at highway speed with windows up). Unfortunately reviews don't cover that.
I don't really see how being open and upfront with the employees, and doing so with their encouragement is abuse. I have abused the system in the past, buying online and then immediately, and returning the one I purchased there, but it was a long time ago, and sometimes as we age we adjust our behaviors.
Of course I suppose I have abused the policy in the past too, when they had something I needed now, but it was more than double internet price.
They have a problem that they sell items with a fairly fast spoilage rate (they don't spoil, but the value rapidly decreases), it's not an inventory I'd want to be keeping.
When I last purchased a bluetooth ear piece, I went to Best Buy because of their good return policy. I had went online and narrowed my potential list to 3, and was buying them one at a time and returning until I found one I liked. I only had to return one, but had the second sucked I would of returned it too.
They are really eating into their advantage vs the internet here.
1) really it should just be collected as you consume (VAT/Sales) 2) I'd like to see a refund at around the poverty line to let all the "wah, regressive tax" types to shove it (this should allowed to go to negative even, allowing for it to act as a micro-loan to potential entrepreneurs).
point 1 is because in the US consumption is too high vs savings (savings rate was negative for a spell even), so taxing consumption should help that. Additionally it does not punish US corporations exporting, giving foreign companies an advantage selling here.
The definition of income is not as simple as you appear to think it is.
It depends, if it's a framework, it can be like qt, gpl or pay. Drupal failed as a closed source product, but pays people and is better (more modules available) now that it's open.
Mozilla makes its money not with support, but with advertising (probably not viable for most projects).
The reality is, there is no guarantee the poster will be able to feed a family either way, and plenty of closed source start ups fail, with some becoming viable when opening (I think one of the databases went that route).
If X works "just fine" why does it run worse than loading a window through VNC?
As for the toolkits, I don't see why they couldn't implement network transparency (or close to it), sending widgets rather than drawing commands. I don't really know these things, but in my head that would be the first step to getting something as efficient as citrix working (though obviously only for a subset of apps).
I've seen a GTK backend that went to a terminal, why couldn't one be made that went over the network?
Isn't gtk working on remote run ? I imagine similar will happen for qt.
This has the disadvantage of making those projects harder to do, but the advantage that the widgets know more about what's going on than x does, so it could be done more efficiently.
I've found x's network transparency to consistently be letter useful than vnc
alright, point taken, I use the news widget on my phone for that reason.
It's still a mistake in my opinion to think that's the broad usage case (even if it is).
It's a perceived restriction to not have "the internet", even if in reality it's a better user experience. My phone is an internet device (though mostly via apps) that happens to make calls. Blackberry was (IMO) an email device that happened to make calls and have some internet. The iPhone was the first phone made as an internet device, the large screen was a big part of that. Consumers wanted the internet in the end it appears.
You are not describing a consumer friendly device.
Once people could get the "real" internet in their pockets, it was a game changer, I'm really surprised it took Apple to recognize that (though Opera was pretty good).
were perfectly fine if you didn't care about the web browser or the touch screen
The problem was that a good web browser was a killer app for smartphones, and the touch screen though annoying, meant a bigger screen for consumptive tasks.
The touch screen thing could have been missed by smart leaders, but the web browsing experience not being recognized as key is pretty damned shocking to me. And arguably, it you are doing a browser you need a touch screen for it to be nice.
I could be wrong, but I think part of the sharing of information was not just the impending attack by Germany, but also the fact that the Poles had reached the end of what they were going to be able to do with their resources, not just that they didn't want all the work to be lost. Yes, the German provided the info to the French, who pretty much decided "meh, we can't use this, it's unbreakable" before passing it along to the Polish.
The Polish effort was absolutely the base for the English effort, and the fact that they proved it was possible at all was part of what got the English to get into gear. I was not trying to minimize their contribution at all. I think without their effort, it is quite possible it would not have been broken at all (or would of required to more physical methods of code breaking like with the Navy codes).

Interesting. I am constantly frustrated with Adobe's dialogs, and much prefer to just use the OS one.

As far as clock widgets in KDE, I'm a huge fan of fuzzy clock. I set it to fifteen minutes of accuracy, and am never late.
I'm sure the same could be said about communist/socialist types, they're for communism/socialism until they're not.

If you were early, there was a slide-show that was 50% local adds, and some random facts/trivia.
Not as obnoxious as adds after the lights go dim, but there were adds as long as I can remember (late 80's I suppose).

agreed, and thanks.
The funny thing is, by "correcting" would've I made it worse...

Apple has the advantages of very little internet competition (price wise), and much much smaller leased spaces.
Best Buy needs to sell things to keep all that space.
OMG, it's like open source can use capitalism and competition to its advantage.

Creationism doesn't mean one thinks stuff was created by a deity, it means one believes literally in the 7 day creation story of Genesis.
Wouldn't the significant increase in surface area / volume ration cause a far lower mass to actually hit earth?

YES! how do people not do this?
