Before you mention a) your technical problem with 12.10 b) your disgust with unity c) your leet alternative of cinammon/openbox/awesome/i3/dwm/twm/tmux/screen/tty2, can we save those for the appropriate forums or articles? This article is about Ubuntu becoming more closed, not about unity specifically or otherwise.
It's because of hypocracy. It's like that story on CNN where the RNC excited strip joints in tampa because the convention for the "party of family values" would bring in much revenue for the dodgy venues.
Scientists are not even allowed to speak in first person in academic journals, but to get ahead this attitude of self-promotion seems to be a must. No wonder fraud is an increasing problem in academia. Scientists above anyone should know that such incentives leads to corrupt and non-scientific individuals being in places of power. This happens in other fields, but in science, correctness is supposed to be more important. FFS, the reason the scientific method is applied is to suppress the motives to simply get ahead and be known or have the theory that you believe and makes you famous and instead lead real science that actually helps us understand how the world really wants, human motivations be damned.
What hypocracy. If anything, tightening budgets and mistrust of science are becoming more and more justified as long as corruption in science is thought to be okay and permissible.
And that makes this even worse. The top executives push the tenured profs into pushing their free labor to churn out papers so they can have their high wages for sitting on their asses and appreciating in value. This sort of is the problem in most of the world, but it seems even worse in science.
A black hole's 'http://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2012/10/point-of-no-return-found/point of no return'? I know a little bit about GR but I don't think I've every heard of that physical quantity before. Is this some new "mystery" technology like quantum computers, some sort of Swarzschild Uniform Resource Locators?
The issue is this man is on a committee that helps oversee and draft science related bills in the House. Why are people like him and Akin get on these committees?
TFA doesn't say why they couldn't find another book (or I just did a poor read).
Art is hard to teach without pictures, just look at the examples given, "line, light, form, and color" without being about to see the line, light, form, and color...unless the placeholder borders are the lines, the form is the rectangle, and the color and light are combined by the stark white on the page where an image should be (God, it sounds like some obscure, abstract art already)..
Think about it like this, it is a programming book without code snippets, although having online snippets would make sense since it is programming and you program on a computer, so it's even worse than that.
If you want to make a point and engage in actual debate, then using a mocking tone like that won't convince or intrigue anyone. It just serves to circle-jerk up people who agree with you and enrages people against your opinion, the latter of which is considered trolling.
I'll bite by saying this: more money is already spent on feeding the hungry (food-stamps) and some amount goes to NSF, some of which goes to climate research, I'm sure. Not as much as nasa, but then again, it's priorities, I guess.
Paying down the debt, true. Then again, more revenues would help too.
I really see no other way out of it. I read a op-ed (can't find the link) on cnn in which the author said that if the repubs win all, then the dems out of spite might very well obstruct the government from whatever plan they come up with.
I went there my Sophomore year to check out Oak Ridge. I didn't go for computing,but since my guide knew that I like computing, he took me to look at the supercomputers. It's this huge room that was visible through glass windows which looked essentially like a huge clean, white, office floor with all the cubicles removed and with the supercomputers in place instead.
At that time (2009?) I heard it wasn't really the fastest supercomputer but it's awesome to hear they're revving it up to that. If I didn't hate TN so much, I'd go to UTK and try to work there for Theoretical Physics with the prospect of one day contributing to some simulation that could run on it--granted people deem me smart enough to join that sort of thing. Sigh...dreams...

Oh god it's roman_mir >.>
It must be fantastic over their in Mint-land, wear you can have you're traditional desktop and true freedom and all that.
Its truly free, write?

Old English (with thou's and thy's) isn't the Holy Text's original language?
Hence why I asked. You're not girlintraining though... You're insinuated that I was challenging her...which I said I wasn't.
Are you saying this is okay? I'm not challenging you, but I'm not sure I get the reason for your comment.

General Relativity has been around for almost a century and it's been understood pretty well since the 60's.
Your obviously true american cause you're mom learned u good english

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

So instead of a fish shaped like a star, it is a fish composed of tiny stars?
lmfao
lol u mad

Let's just keep our fingers crossed, I guess.
Here's an example from cnn:

I see it quite frequently mentioned on cnn.

It's just that "soon" is taking a bit of a while to happen.
Trufax. I have to read a section and do an outline on it that's due in two hours but yeah...lols.
"UNITE with the Campaign for a Free Internet because today, our future begins with tomorrow!"
Freedom for more posts from people like you? I might need to reconsider this whole net neutrality thing...
Linux has been on top in supercomputer usage since the mid 2000's.
