  1. Re:Don't like it on Ubuntu May Move To Rolling Releases · · Score: 1

    True. OTOH, it might be just "funny" to find out some morning after daily updates, that window close button had moved to some random corner, a functional GUI replaced with something untested button collection, which takes quarter of screen, etc.. Perhaps it is just time to move my Eepc901 from the Netbook Remix to a less adventurous system, which is not governed by some visionary user experience artist wannabe. Any suggestions?

    Cosmetic changes don't apply to your existing user, but to new ones, therefore, unless you create a new user each time you use your computer, you won't notice those changes.


    Not untill you have a spare day and say "oh, I'm feeling nauhty, I'm going to reinstall my oobantoo, oh yes!"

  2. Re:Party like it's 1988 on CDE — Making Linux Portability Easy · · Score: 2, Informative

    I would LOVE to have mod points and vote this up... I always loved the fact that the applications use the existing blocks on the system to do their magic, and by sharing the blocks you can have more apps in less space than other platform$. But with this... if you install every f*cking package with this.. you will end up having 12 different glibc versions (hey, maybe 12 times the same glibc version, each for each app that requires it), and 81725 times each library.. I think it's a _GREAT_ tool to perform a fast-and-no-brains-available deployment of some in-development app, or to debug some weird shit. But please, do not pretend to install all my software like this.. I don't want gedit to weight 100mb.
