This is one of those compromises that should not be made.
What things are we going to allow corporations to do on the presidents assurance that it is legal? Which amendments will we stop at?
It is important that the message is sent that the president can't simple say "this is legal" and congress makes it so retro-actively.
The compromise is at least as bad as the one that made Judge "torture memos" Alito attorney general. There are situations where a compromise is warranted, and the lesser evil, but there are others where the compromise still leans too far towards "strong executive" (That's the PC word for dictatorship I think) and must not be agreed to.
This isn't compromise in the sense that you get the freeway I badly need, I get the bridge to nowhere.
What does hardware that doesn't support Linux have to do with installing software that is supported?
Or finding the program for a function.
If the device worked, 2 programs that look easy enough are "cheese" and "camorama", top two that come up when searching webcam in add/remove programs.
Of course if your device doesn't show up at all it is a completely different situation. My only point was that finding the right program is not as hard as advertised, getting hardware that doesn't "just work" is different (for example I still can't get my shuttle PN-15 to work, I just gave up and ran a cable, even though it should work).
but try installing an app that plays podcasts WITHOUT KNOWING that democracyplayer and VLC play podcasts.
I went to add/remove and typed podcast in the search.
When sorted by popularity: 1) rythmbox music player, play and orginize your music collection. I bet this works for audio podcasts
2) Miro Internet TV, Watch online videa. details: Miro (previously known as Democracy Player) is a platform for Internet television and video. It allows you to download and watch videos from RSS feeds (including podcasts, video blogs, and BitTorrent feeds).
This application is provided by the Ubuntu community.
I bet that's what I would pick.
Of course gpodder 2 further down may have been my choice (it mentions audio and video podcasts in the brief description).
I would never have used vlc though, I use it daily, and didn't realize it did podcasts.
Would you mind letting us know what percentage of sales (roughly) were Linux?
I am just curious what random commercial software sales figures get.
Given that in games, where it is the news of the century for Linux users it is very small, I imagine it is incredibly tiny (more than a half percent would be quite the surprise to me).
Also, is lack of Linux version 2008 a delayed release, or just not worth it?
I read somewhere it doesn't, and don't feel like checking.
If features such as those are not supported, then it makes sense for the default to be the feature rich format, with the opportunity to archive the final copy in ODF.
When I first used Linux it was redhat, and when I wanted to reconfigure the sound I had to re-install it (I guess knowing sndconf was the command would have helped, but I didn't).
Then SUSE came with the YaST, and I could "re-install" without actually reinstalling, and much time was saved.
Of course now all that stuff is real obvious anyway, so it doesn't really matter.
China is an amazing culture with lots of fantastic history, and racism/culturalism is bad. That does not mean that taking stereotypes and portraying them as ridiculous is, and most of your "facts" are silly.
China does get into wars (though historically with itself, and is claiming areas taken by the Mongols(Tibet is not historically part of China). Though "The Art of War" advises against fighting, it was not written because of a history of peace.
People started moving out of caves 8,000 years ago, with the advent of agriculture in the fertile crescent.
But when a small car hits a big or medium car it decelerates, than accelerate a lot (watch how far the smart bounces of the Mercedes in another video).
But there is something to be gained from a coherent picture of the timeline of the world, that I found lacking in my learning about events more closely (I essentially didn't do history in school, and what history I did was even worse that reading about events.
It was much later (as if such a thing can exist in ones 20's) in life when things began to gel into a coherent world history. Memorizing one coherent timeline that included parallel events that were not directly impacting each other.
I bet they could do it for half the price of the migration (5 million USD). Schools are one place you would think there is no disadvantage to making software open source too. It's not like they need a competitive advantage for the public schools.
I don't think I've seen any specs that include the MB of each.
I know that AMD for a while was getting hit because they included the memory controller on their CPU, making CPU power draw higher, but had less overall (I am pretty sure that by now Intel has them solidly beat though).
In fact large (multi-million dollar) deals are made all day long with oral contracts (for the US they are usually recorded too).
I was doing document presentation t a trial where someone had to pay mid 7 figures because they made an oral agreement to sell stock and bonds and then didn't produce. The brokerage doing the purchase then sold them the same day (orally). When the original seller (who himself had made the purchase on a non-recorded phone conversation, and didn't understand what he was purchasing, which is where the benefit of writing comes in, since it became he said/he said) didn't come through the brokerage still had to cover their oral agreements (by purchasing over market price).
these few brokers had done deals worth more than I am likely to spend my entire life (mid 8 figures, the 7 figures was the amount they spend over market price to sell it at such) with purely oral agreements in a span of time under 48 hours. Big money can move without a scrap of paper (and in th case of the people working in France, there was not even a phone recording).

I don't think it takes user effort to update FF.
It is constantly telling me to restart it to install updates.

Well, the Linux NFS is so sucky from what I have read), that Samba is quite useful.
I use wine to run keygens for bootlegged aps. They usually run.
When I first used Linux it was redhat, and when I wanted to reconfigure the sound I had to re-install it (I guess knowing sndconf was the command would have helped, but I didn't).

How do we tell Iran that?
It is a sticky ethical question whether we build one or not.
The better question is that if even Iran wants to go nuclear, how can we justify fossil fuels?
Sounds to me like the State has a compelling interest in civil unions, and none in marriage.
Marriage is a ceremony (even if it is a quick and simple one), the State should not care. All they care about is the contractual union of 2 people.

But when a small car hits a big or medium car it decelerates, than accelerate a lot (watch how far the smart bounces of the Mercedes in another video).
Isn't that the video where they say the smart car driver would be dead (probably the other too)?
and that there was more (but not much more) cabin penetration in the smart car?
Also, the smart car is very heavy for it's size? It only gets 31/44 MPG. Not much better than a Yaris, or '07 Corolla
Look at the long term futures prices on oil from 2000.
People will be getting REALLY rich off of this. (I can't find a link, but prices were expacted to be far less).
But there is something to be gained from a coherent picture of the timeline of the world, that I found lacking in my learning about events more closely (I essentially didn't do history in school, and what history I did was even worse that reading about events.

In KDE4 with simple shortcuts for show plasmoids and got rid of the taskbar ect.
I hope to use an extra mouse button so that is is a mouse only thing (if I am moving the mouse anyway, my hand is there).
Being able to mouse button access to my start button, a few key folders, and whatever else will be great (as it seems, even using the keyboard).
This is different than the dashboard that doesn't actually save screen space.
hopefully 4.2 will support this without needing to install extra.
Seriously,
I bet they could do it for half the price of the migration (5 million USD). Schools are one place you would think there is no disadvantage to making software open source too. It's not like they need a competitive advantage for the public schools.
So much for the web based application cross platform utopia.
These vendors really should target Mozilla, and distribute a client (branded Firefox install) for those fearful of the open source.
Me too,
But that is not how it seams to be done once you get to 7 or 8 figures. Of course in the US it is all recorded at least.
But how much is the total draw of the system?
I don't think I've seen any specs that include the MB of each.
I know that AMD for a while was getting hit because they included the memory controller on their CPU, making CPU power draw higher, but had less overall (I am pretty sure that by now Intel has them solidly beat though).
But it is also a matter of when emails got the ability to easily add a scanned copy of a document with intials and signatures in appropriate places.
