I'm not sure that "feel" is the right word. People move from small cities to Paris because they are promoted. They earn more money. They think they have made the big time.
When they come back down here to the south believe me they _ARE_ arrogant sons of bitches that think they are above us.
I feel better now.
I say this because an arrogant parisien bitch asked me how come I could be so good at my job and not live in Paris. My answer: diesel car motor pollution isn't good for intelectual activity.
Open source creates more _INTERESTING_ jobs. It create jobs that require more than the ability to be able to format a HD and reinstall windows because the box was contaminated.
The more businesses and administrations take up open source the more jobs it will create. And they will be less boring that fixing other peoples broken OS.
As for lack of upward compatibility: with what? I have never had a problem with OOo or Mozilla. Has he got another nasty trick up his sleeve?
I use Dreamweaver MX Studio on a daily basis. I thought about upgrading to MX 2004 Studio for better CSS support. That is the only thing that is really improved and it is more like a bug fix than an upgrade. $499 for a bug fix = a good deal?
I have gone back to hand coding. I rough out my pages in MX and add the fancy bits by hand.
The other piece of commercial software I use is VMware - the current version isn't compatible with my CPU. I am very happy with version 3.
I run a MS OS from the 90s on VMware. It doesn't use much RAM and Dreamweaver runs quite well on it.
Is my next monitor. 1280x720 pixels in 22" diagonal at my age is great...
At the moment we use a 15" Samsung which is fed by computer, analog sat tuner and digital sat tuner.
15" is OK for analog TV viewing. The idea behind a 22" wide XGA screen is that it will be good for DVB-S and DVD too. I also need more pixel real estate for work. 1024x768 DVB-S TV is awesome quality - real blacks and whites and sharp clean images.
When we want to watch movies on a big screen we go to a cinema... Or other half brings home beamer from work...
Change your governement. Pull out of Iraq and get your main telecoms operator taken off the net...
We are talking about American originating spam being rerouted through owned Spanish Windows boxes here or what?
Blacklists are good but only when they take out spammers - not innocent bystanders. Taking out an ISP is the same thing as doing a drive by shooting at the lunch bell of your local high school...
Like we say "come and spend your holiday in Russia, your car is already here!".
Most Mercedes stolen in western Europe get a second chance in eastern Europe.

CSS for the LDP?

I get your point but in general I don't think that sizing down
<h1>
in the html version of howtos is going to hurt anyone...
Most important, if you are into ergonomics, is getting decent text column width instead of full window width.
Check the font size buttons on mezzoblue. Poor usablity?

Thats what CSS does... It sets font sizes so that I don't have to spend my time in the text size menu. It doesn't touch the browser setting at all. Maybe you could read up on CSS a little?
I am sugesting that LDP use a style sheet, better yet several style sheets so that each user sees what he wants to see.

This community should have been using CSS for years. Supporting W3C standards is very important.
CSS will make LDP more readable, for the moment I have to modify my browser windo to get the columns of text to the correct width. I also have to modify font size.
Two operations that would be made redundant by a good CSS.
A print style sheet would make printed output easier to read too.
Seeing as how I got treated yesterday I guess I don't have any more friends "over there" =:-D.
And I ain't even from "over here".
Where do I belong?
But/. is the only place I have seen where some yank will moderate a bland on topic remark as flamebait or troll. Guess they don't teach dialectic in schools there.

I don't trust PHP because I was burned twice by non upward compatible versions in the 90's. I use JSP instead. I really don't care about PHP.
I have never understood MySQL's licencing so I just used PostgreSQL instead - it has a very clear licence.

Fuck parisians
From where we are looking who is the totalitarian state?
Who has stupid patents and stupid copyright that never expires (thanks you Walt Disney)?
You have a point.
Paris is not France and Parisians are considered arrogant by the rest of the country.
You mean arrogant like invading sovereign countries, just because you can?
Or arrogant in the way that you as an american have such a big cultural inferiority complex that you imagined that people were looking down at you?
French don't look down On US citizens. They find the President of the US to be a stupid manipulated puppet - but I guess that doesn't concern you.
They also tend to cold shoulder people they find gross and also those that have other stupid complexes.
I am not French I just live here

Why buy software when you don't need it?
1 yard = 36 inches
1 inch = 2.54 cm
so 328,491 feet = 100.12405 Km
The first documentary to win was JY Cousteau's "The world of Silence".
Nautilus has a few of the Apple developers on board. They seem to be living in the past.
What the article doesn't say is that there is always the possibility to go back to WindowMaker. Or even to (yuck) KDE.
Ever heard of PIP (picture in picture)? While you are watching one show you can have 6 others down the side of the screen.
That is why you need 7 tuners.
Which pictures were doctored?
The ones of WMD or the ones of crimes against humanity?

Isn't selling at a loss called dumping and forbidden by the WTO? Didn't the US put a tax on Korean made RAM for this very reason?
OK I'm a Tele2 client.
But I don't live in Sweden so IP sniffing and sending me to a search engine in Swedish is pretty counter productive...
Wasn't the WTO our puppet
jeez the world is going to pieces

>I'm still trying to figure how to run IE under wine...
Doh! And I thought I was thick... OK the ultimate howto:
rpm -ivh wine-version blah blah
rpm -ivh winetools-version blah blah
In winetools click on the install software button.
No windows partition everything is in ~/.wine/c/
Seriously this should be an external option. It is useless for more and more people - a WiFi card may be a much better idea as standard equipment.
