    Ok, I just found it weird that the things you said about your way of working: "often rely on the terminal, I tend to remember programs by name rather than icon" fit rather better with Gnome3 than the slavish Windows95 emulation that was Gnome2.

    Trolls are getting so weak these days, hardly worth bothering.

    I often rely on the terminal, I tend to remember programs by name rather than icon, and my workflow is probably way different than those born in the "apps" era.

    That's the normal way of working with Gnome3 -- you launch programs by hitting window key, typing the first few characters of the program name then enter.

  6. The headline is wrong. on Investigation Finds Exxon Ignored Its Own Early Climate Change Warnings · · Score: 4, Informative

    Exxon didn't "Ignore Its Own Early Climate Change Warnings". It, knowing that AGW was real, defunded the research that proved it and paid professional science deniers to spread FUD claiming that AGW didn't exist.

    Roughly the same period as the Jin dynasty (265–420) in China.

    Actually, the Nazis could have won if they didn't have a racial idealogue

    But if they weren't racists they wouldn't have started the war. The whole reason for the war was racism.

    Well if your army is so great and superior to the US then by all means show us how to do it. Go ahead and walk right into Iraq and Afghanistan and show us all how it's done.

    $100/month for 50Mbps is stupid cheap.

    Not to disagree with your point about guaranteed bandwidth being more expensive, but $100/month for "consumer grade" 50Mbps is bloody expensive.

    Costs around 20-30 EUR in France (with phone & TV thrown in).

    UNRWA isn't "an antisemitic website", it's the UN Relief and Works Agency.

    You provide links showing that someone working at a school posted some anti-semitic cartoons to facebook. What relevance does that have?

    Remember, Lord, what the Edomites did
            on the day Jerusalem fell.
    “Tear it down,” they cried,
            “tear it down to its foundations!”

    Daughter Babylon, doomed to destruction,
            happy is the one who repays you
            according to what you have done to us.

    Happy is the one who seizes your infants
            and dashes them against the rocks.

    I prefer the Boney M version.
