If you follow Mike Wilson's.plan file, you'll see that GOD is basically not going to bother developing any more Mac games. Not because of techinical assistance, which has happened, but because Apple's marketing and corporate image is doing *nothing* advance the cause of gaming on the Mac. i.e. no help from Apple in the marketing/image department to make the mac attractive to gamers.
... but CSS allows the user to specify an overriding style sheet. That's really one of the selling points of it (so vision impared can increase font sizes consistently, etc...).
Actually, Concrete Blond was the one doing Everybody Knows on the Pump Up The Volume Cd. The Pixies were on there as well, tho...

Re:GNOME vs KDE Episode 18: Pointlessness

KDE Strikes Back

· Score: 1
- double-clicking a taskbar icon will iconify that application. great for getting stuff out of your way.
So does Windows (98 onwards)
- right-clicking a taskbar icon gives you a menu which includes 'iconify other windows', which is really handy since I usually have like 14 Konsoles, 11 Netscapes, GAIM, XMMS, Quanta+ and StarOffice open simultaneously.
Windows has 'Minimize All Windows' which is functionally similar, but for one mouse click.
- Right click on desktop gives you a menu which includes 'Logout'. I find that much easier to deal with than windows, which requires you to hit Ctrl-Alt-Del or click on the Start button.
Or Alt-F4 when the root window is focused.
- Alt-F2 brings up a little input field which I can use to start an app quicker than using the menus. It keeps a history too, so I can cycle through previous commands.
Windows Key + R
- Rotating desktop wallpapers. I have a directory of about 450 hi-color psychedelic 1024x768 wallpapers, and I have KDE set to switch to a random one every 30 seconds. Keeps things interesting
3rd party freeware will do this in Windows. Additonally, you can use a simple JScript or VBScript in an HTML page, and use that in active desktop. If you like rotating wallpapers, I have a feeling you don't give a shit about preformance =)
Also, you can get X-style focus-follows-mouse using TweakUI, as well as a few other goodies (they provide an interface for the long-standing Tab Completion registry hack that's been in Windows since the start of NT4).
It's also a good way for those who aren't considered normal in most communities to form thier own communities in which they are normal. For example, neo-nazi's and other such people.
Re: Pulp Fiction not influential? Are you insane? At *least* go watch Go (1998 or so), but then remind yourself of movies like Things To Do In Denver When You're Dead and about any other movie involving criminals that came out in the years following Pulp Fiction, which were *all* compared to Pulp Fiction. Hell, To Die For was wrongly and confusingly billed as a 'female Pulp Fiction'.
Actually, many libraries do stock penthouse/playboy...

Nah, all the pirated software over there comes on CD =)

That's not the problem. The problem is that somewhere along the line, it's going to get stolen if it even looks like it has commercial value.

It's better than bad, it's good!

Actually, on alot of models they come up when you first insert the DVD (it automagically hits play for you).

Just as a note, I know of at least two people named 'Christian' who use 'Xian' as an abbreviation for thier name.
This certainly qualifies as "neutral or positive".

That would actually be 'bad design practice'...
Bad coding practice would be using sprintf instead of snprintf - about which the design says nothing.

Uhh, dude, that's what a patent is - when you patent it, you are forced to reveal it to the public.
Patents just make sure that no one else is allowed to make a product based on the idea unless you let them.

You do know that there's a Sex for Dummies book, don't you?

You forgot The Necromancer and The Fountain of Lamneth.

K-Meleon has nothing to do with KDE, as you seem to be confused.

Not in SQL*Plus, fuckhead.
Just because you use sed, doesn't mean shit.

The time machine used plutonium, not uranium.

They did? Do you know what album it was on?
They did a great cover of I Can't Forget on I'm Your Fan (tribute album).
Also, Don Henley did a pretty decent cover of Everybody Knows on Tower of Song (another tribute album).
Still, my favourite is Tori Amos covering Famous Blue Raincoat.
Anyway, do you know where I might find that Pixies cover of EK?

Actually, 'mp3' is now more common than 'sex'.
Takes up more space than porn on news servers, too.
Looks like there is something better than sex now...
