  1. Re:How long on Ubuntu 11.10 Down To 12-Second Boot · · Score: 1

    I can have both working in less than 15 minutes, the choice of the distribution doesn't really matter as long as it's linux.

  2. Re:This is ridiculous! on GNOME and KDE Devs Wrangle Over 'System Settings' Name · · Score: 2

    I'm sorry, KDE is far from half-assed now, it might have been unstable back in the days of KDE 4.0.x

    I'm using 4.6.5 on Arch Linux right now, and it's even more stable than GNOME 3.0, I know it should be, but yet again, 4.6.5 is the latest stable release, it hasn't been tested that thoroughly, either

    Not to mention that Arch is known to be bleeding edge, so it's not the most stable distro around.

    So yeah, I chose to go with KDE, at least for now, it's more reliable and customizable than GNOME 3.0.

  3. Re:I guess I won't be using it then. on Google+: Tools, Names, and Facebook · · Score: 1

    It has been in alpha for a really long time now.

    Why did they generate all this buzz when their product isn't even ready yet?

    With the launch of Google+, I don't think it'll have a chance in being something significant anymore.

  4. Re:The way I see it. on Panetta Says Defeat of Al Qaeda 'Within Reach' · · Score: 2, Insightful

    No, people have thought of this a lot, but the US government seems to enjoy blood money too much.

    If those nations had peace, the US won't be able to sell arms to those countries.

    And if that happens, the US is going to be broke in no time.

  5. The way I see it. on Panetta Says Defeat of Al Qaeda 'Within Reach' · · Score: 5, Insightful

    There's no way to defeat Al Qaeda.

    Al Qaeda isn't just a bunch of people, it's an ideology.

    As V says, "Ideas are bulletproof".

    If the US really wants to defeat Al Qaeda, I think they should help countries that aid them get on their feet, that way they'll stop hating the US and start thinking about whether Al Qaeda is good for them or not for themselves.

    That's actually true, we need jobs to pay the bills, and to pay for our smartphones.

  10. Re:Most important of all? on JavaScript Creator Talks About the Future · · Score: 5, Insightful

    C (and its derivatives) power almost all web servers in use today, and without servers, there's no web. Most browsers are written in C++ today, JS saw the light of day working inside browsers. A lot of programming languages have their main implementations written in C (Ruby, Python, PHP). So, yes, C/C++ are still important in the days of the web.

  11. Re:Windows is popular because it works. on Miguel de Icaza On Usability and Openness · · Score: 1

    Ubuntu is the ONLY Linux distribution that breaks when you update it. I use Mandriva, and it updates smoothly, and I guess this is pretty much the same with Fedora and OpenSuSE.

  12. Re:HTML 5 on Miguel de Icaza On Usability and Openness · · Score: 1

    MS Office for a resume? Last time I checked, LibreOffice/OpenOffice.Org can produce valid .doc files. But personally, I wrote my own resume in LaTeX, it looks a lot better than anything you can do with a "productivity suite".

    they only brought back the internet to make people go home without internet,more people joined the protests because they had nothing better to do anyway now,people are urging others to join the protests via social networking sites I don't think the Egyptian government can do anything about these protests really,other than stepping down,that is

  15. that's really good! on Ubuntu May Move To Rolling Releases · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I have used Arch Linux for quite some time,and I like it when I have the latest software without having to update to a newer release,or wait for a new one to be available
