What to expect from a population that took the wholly undemocratic and likely illegal actions from their government lying down?
At least the people of the Arab world followed the lead of a desperate street merchant and fought oppression during the Arab Spring, even more has to happen before the overdue Western Spring is to come about.
Or you could look up some official papers like court documents and the studies they're based on from countries that outlawed polygraphy for legal evidence.
I would say the contrary, this tells us how unappealing the established phones are, this is at least partially powered by negative sentiment.
For me the attraction is to get my hands on a device that can replace the old Nokia N900 and allows the use of mainstream Linux software.
Shuttleworth has made statements that could be read as if it's going to be a quite open platform but it wasn't a crystal clear and hard commitment he made.
I know the article starts with "Here in the US" so European stories could be off topic but will also bring some perspective.
Earlier this year our head of maintenance announced he was leaving in 3 months time and it was greatly appreciated by the management.
It was very professional of him (that other word in the article) and gave us time to look for a replacement.
Obviously it helped he was going to a totally different industry and he could not possibly be accused of helping the competition.
Besides, a typical European contract has a similar notice for both employer and employee.
I care little (non-zero!) about the autonomy of my city, province or country providing it is replaced by the autonomy of a larger entity like a democratic Europe.
Both professionally and privately I travel a lot and I see the European project as a great chance for it's people, a much better chance for peace and prosperity than the individual nations can ever give.
The economic problems in many of the EU countries are not a lack of funds but individuals, companies and banks refusing to spend it.
There is plenty of money available to kick-start our economy, all we need is a more positive outlook.
That's one very good reason to use KDE, because (?) KDE is not a Microsoft, Canonical or Gimp product so the user is free to configure to his liking, like in your scenario you can simply disable the indexing.
I must say there are faster file managers, KDE's own Krusader is one and the venerable Midnight Commander (mc) is another.
For options and user 'friendliness' there's possibly nothing worse than the Windows File Manager especially on Win7, luckily it's only available on one OS.
I just opened one directory with 13,550 files and another with nearly 16,000, it is literally done in a split second. (KDE 4.10.5, Dolphin 2.2)
Your folders must be absolutely gigantic.
I haven't tried the K3B scenario you describe but as a keen reader of the forums I've never seen such or similar complaints.
A fraction of a second (0.25?), as I could have missed something I did try your 'test'. /usr/share/doc/ contains 1935 directories,/usr/bin/ has one directory and 2157 files.
To complete the story, this is on a 18 months old Lenovo W520 laptop, with an i7-2760QM CPU @ 2.4GHz and with 8 GiB of RAM.
Obviously this is a reasonably powerful computer but even on a 4 y/o HP mini it works just as snappy as I could wish for.
Rubbish, since years KDE is easier on memory than (the) other complete desktop environments, one reason is the from get-go integration of it's applications.
I've been using KDE since it came about and like many experienced the teething problems when KDE 4 came out.
But it was easy enough to continue using KDE3.5 until the worst was sorted and so I did.
As a long term user I am really surprised by your observation of Dolphin and it's widgets having been slow, as a matter of fact I feel you are outright trolling or at least spouting flamebait...
And what do you mean by synchronisation problems, that you might have to reload the tree in one application after you've edited things using another?
In Germany once there is an indication of a defect developing on the (Autobahn) road surface the speed will be restricted. I guess at the moment there's only 20-25% without a limit.
The past 20-odd years I've always had cars able to exceed the 250 limit most cars are governed at and on rare occasions I actually drove at those speeds.
I never felt it to be particularly dangerous but of course I observed the road much further ahead then when going at regular speeds, this means the road and traffic needs to be perfectly visible for the distance needed to adjust my speed.
Around 2008 we've seen an article on/. about some guys in The Netherlands experimenting with Bluetooth tracking between several spots in the city of Apeldoorn.
Following the link in this article it becomes clear there even was a somewhat world-wide effort: http://www.mapsmaniac.com/2008/07/tracking-bluetooth-devices-on-google.html
Rubbish, although those speeds are, even in Germany, not common they are an everyday event.
Obviously risk increases with speed but this can and is mitigated by preparations like other travellers expecting it and the driver, the car and road being fit for purpose.
Let's hope this will make the public more aware of spying in general, German parliamentarians have already requested information about their own services.
Sure but the point is this is to hinder a foreign intervention into matters the local security forces should and can deal with but now according to the laws of the land.
No, why would I?
And what difference does it make, around my way prisons are governed to prevent the homosexual raping that seems to be endemic in the US system.
This could be the beginning of US companies being shunned for what their government is doing.
Because this message will hit the front pages and prime time news.
Although many Europeans say they've got nothing to hide they are jstill pissed off about the warrant-less spying an outside, previously considered friendly, force is doing upon them.
I am really sad about the need for this walling off, it defeats the great idea and ideal of a world-wide network.
But it seems to be necessary, if only as a message to the perpetrators because we know nothing is unbreakable.
And please do remember this mail will still be accessible to German courts but now on their own conditions.
OTOH, since it's fairly easy to show that essentially all males will screw anything that doesn't run too fast when their inhibitions are down, perhaps it's a moot point.
That's where you go wrong, a heterosexual man will never find another man sexually attractive, when he does that's fine with me but he is then part of the percentage I mentioned.
Hehe, you talk like a Putin, afraid of his own sexuality, well at least not comfortable with it why else does he regularly come up with these macho photo sessions, fishing, hunting, driving a tank or a submarine.
You seem to worry about the DNA of the population, implying the present DNA is somehow superior to the DNA from the outside world, a rather unsupported idea.
In a society where homosexuality is oppressed many homosexuals will marry just to hide their sexual preferences and children are going to be born out of these couples, (many) more so then would they have been allowed to happily live as homosexuals, what does that do for your DNA worries?
But the worst thing is people are being made unhappy for no reason what so ever, it is a fact that roughly 9% of the population is homosexual or at least bi-sexual, this is not a choice, it's the way you were born and are going to die.
Homosexuality is not a disease that can be cured, nor is it a voluntary choice that depends on others, it is totally involuntary and the new Russian laws are only going to make a lot of unhappy people..
Something similar exists
It's a little smaller than a regular bus but very fast, it can run on regular roads but is designed to run on it's own 'track': http://www.thenational.ae/news/uae-news/transport/high-speed-superbus-debuts-in-dubai
Or these days (high-bypass)Turbofan.
At least the people of the Arab world followed the lead of a desperate street merchant and fought oppression during the Arab Spring, even more has to happen before the overdue Western Spring is to come about.
Well spoken AC.
This type of behaviour is unacceptable for a reporter and journalist as it is for the publication he works for.

For the time being my sympathy goes to jolla.com.

Yes my rating of the OP still stands.

What about: for most user cases self-compiling is completely unnecessary?
But it was easy enough to continue using KDE3.5 until the worst was sorted and so I did.
