I wouldn't really say we're "enjoying" the result of your elitist attitude towards software and the Linux market. But the man does have a point, that your elitism is just overshadowing. Linux wouldn't be where it is right now without at least some focus, XFree86, the linux kernel itself, and the gnu tools. Imagine a linux where there are about 12 different tools with about 3 or so of the good features of Xfree and the rest is crap. Yeah that'd suck quite a bit of ass wouldn't it? Or imagine some other program you like, doesn't exist and is replaced with 4 inferior "competitive" applications. That's what it's like for we in the linux crowd who actually like to use GUI's. There's not a single suitable GUI environment to be had anywhere in the linux realm. I don't think having a focus on UI experience is necessarily a bad a thing as you make it out to be.
Yeah, Jagwire is pretty sweet. My mountain bike has jagwire brake lines to replace the stock hayes, and it gives them much more modulation. Also their teflon coated cables and kevlar housing is great for shifting. word up. Oh wait, this was about apple, that's jaguar. Just a heads up.
Actually most cars DO have speed governors, not just rev limiters. They usually cut in at around 140-155 miles per hour. The Toyota Supra, all BMWs and most other European marks. It's not state mandated but the manufacturers do it anyway.
Had you known anything at all about the mozilla development cycle you would know that there has never been a.1-.5. the first point release was.6 which Netscape 6 was based on. Fruity troll.
You're missing the point, Mozilla is about the w3c standards, if they put IE layer tags in the browser they'd effectively be going back on 4 years of development and vision. I personally haven't seen a site that uses browser specific layers in a long time, so it's not the issue it was in 1998.
Why would they support IE style layers, when and are part of the html4.0 spec and work perfectly, not to mention Mozilla is supposed to be an html4.0 w3c browser, and NOT bend to the will of MS tags.
Some people on slashdot well most, don't seem to know what's going on in society these days, so I was just showing people that the parent of my comment was satirical, dickhole.
Agreed completely, frankly I'm suprised it's taken this long for congress to step in where the parent's have failed to. In the movie industry it didn't take them this long, and certainly not with porn. Let's face facts, if it's illegal for a kid to get into an R or NC-17 rated movie without their parent's it should be illegal for them to purchase let's say GTA3 or SOE which is far more graphic than any movie made in the past few years. I find myself supporting this bill because for once it makes the parent's responsible for what their children view. I thought it was funny when I got carded for buying a PS2 game at wal-mart awhile ago but damnit I'd rather get carded for that then have some 7 year old play GTA3 and then go try to hit people with baseball bats cuz it's "fun." Just my 2 cents.
Warcraft 2 allowed for air sea and land simultaneously, as did Red Alert. The problem I had with TA was that it didn't require any unit tactics, you just rushed the fuck out of them and then rebuilt your 3000 person army.
first of all, it's not blue, idiot, it's green. Secondly if you don't like it, don't read it. Thirdly Linux isn't known for it's CLI, it's known for Gnome and KDE and being a cheap knock off of a commercial unix.
The same thing happened to me last night at around 11 pm. I called them and they said they wouldn't be able to send a tech out till monday and then this morning it worked again. Odd that. Course I live in colorado. might have been local.
As someone who's ridden their fare share of bicycles; a Giant TCR, Jamis Komodo, BikeE, KHS downhill bike. I can honestly say the worst of those bikes next to the downhill bike to do a xcountry tour on would be the bikeE. They'd be fine over the great plains and whatnot but once you hit the Rocky or Appalachian Mountains you'd better hope you packed a good touring or road bike in your saddle bags. The hills on recumbents on a painful experience second only to kidney stones and childbirth, and going uphill on a downhill bike. If you want to go xcountry get yourself a good touring bike and forget about recumbents. They're for urban flatland cruising only.
Well the appeal of these machines is fun and entertainment. As in, you have fun and entertainment making little people do stuff at your command. It's not really a difficult concept to grasp. Games are fun, hence a machine that only plays games, would be fun. Think of it as a home arcade wherein you decide what games are in.
Anandtech had this same article a couple months ago, the first based on RC1 and the second based on the Gold master. Yeah WinXP is slower. I don't think anyone is suprised by this since they had to make it backwards compatible with 9x to get everything to run and migrate smoothly. I'll stick with 9x till I can afford to upgrade my K6-2. weee

The problem is in number 6. As in they didn't get it in the competitors product. SGI did years ago and then sold their work to Microsoft.
For your information, Microsoft bought the patents in question FROM SGI. Just a heads up.

I understood his point, but adding IE style layers to mozilla is a bad thing for mozilla.

fuck, and

Funny you should mention that. It's called the raver scene. Or as I like to refer to them, e-tards.

usable? A better Example of a viable usable operating system without an os embedded would be OS X
Actually the base color used for the gradient, is the same exact color as the normal slashdot theme.

If you get a bike that fits you it's neither hunch-inducing or painful on the genitals. Ahh well, to each his own.

Icons in the root window, and a trash can.
question 1. there's a lip on it that the last drop can't crest, hence, still in the can
question 2. you're ugly
question 3. you're a dork
see, I answered your questions and I don't even know you. Good luck finding anyone willing to shell out grant money for those.
