  1. Re:And the bubble continues... on Universities Hold Transcripts Hostage Over Loans · · Score: 1

    YEAH...fuuny thing is if the Va owes the college money, they wont pay it until grades are released, which cant happen until the school is paid up. NICE RED TAPE on POST 911 and CH30 benefits.

    NO..I bought it...I should say. OK, use the buggy thing, then...FFox way more stable.

  3. Re:Eh? This is how Skype works? on Microsoft Using Linux To Optimize Skype Traffic · · Score: 1

    YEAH. Its how it works. Goes to show you M$ thinks its product really not living up to snuff and they realize it. HMM, future of M$ in desktops...Canonocal wants a piece of that pie. Better get ready to overhaul the Windows CORE..my friends. Your BROKEN AERO is showing. Linux can do better than M$.

  4. Re:This Gamemakerlessness is an eyesore! on Ubuntu Will Soon Ship On 5% of New PCs · · Score: 1

    To harp on Linus a bit more here: I fully support a modernized DEBian standard. I just dont like the direction Canonocal is going with it. They break more than they fix as of late and releasing dailys/nightlies as 'promoted works' just doesnt cut it. They need a 'stable-buntu' and need to maintain that attitude, both for servers and clients. WINE needs better MONO/.NET support. Multimedia maybe needs an option like for REDHAT, where you BUY DVD/BLURAY support. CODECS should be standard. This is what people EXPECT.

    SPAMMMERS! Any decent related post would have sh-canned this long time ago. CANonocal is making gallant strides in recent years...nobody knows what Linux is or it would have taken off long ago. Do you see REDHAT/Fedora on store shelves? No. Y? The store doesnt want to do tech support for 'non-M$' OSes. They dont want to work for free and want to charge you 50/hr to fix your PC. They want Certifications and corporations backing them.(despite Linux has an OS certification,LINUX+ and is recongnized for it by COMPTIA, which does not need to be recycled every 6 mos, like M$ exams..) Now the user is thrown into the C/C++/Python world and expects GAMES, and DVD/multimedia support. For a tablet PC, this would be a fine switch. Unity needs to checnge for lap/desktops, though. I cant stand it. And its eye candy-slow. Maybe we should all go back to days of ICEWM/XFCE... Linux was created to run on scratch HW...take the ARDU-BUNTU tester as an example...I wouldnt boot a 'PC' in 8 hrs...but goes to show you...it IS possible.
