Do you really believe preaching about piracy + giving the option that he can download classical music will make him say: oh I'm such a bad man. What an infidel I am. I must repent!
"Nothing personal, but Bjarne Stroustrup comes real short in the real world department."
Nothing personal but are you really that stupid. Do you really believe Stroustrop just sits back and watches.
Well Mr Firefox fanboy, you should be able to spot the difference immediately if you just do what I said.
Time the time it takes for FF to start compared to opera. Open tons os webpages and compare their speeds.
Run them for a long time and compare crashes...
I can't do it for you
Firefox lost its way a long time ago.
Firefox is easily the slowest browser out there.
Just do a swift comparison between it and Opera 9.
Both are freely available for download, so download and compare.
Opera not only starts faster, it is more stable, and runs faster.
Defending FF just because it's opensource is one thing but being irrational and actually using it is another.
Honestly, if you're a geek you definitely won't be using KDE. If you're a geek you concider KDE to be bloatware. I think Linus wants to promote KDE for the desktop as it's the most complete system there is for linux on the desktop.
Having said that, I'm using Gnome anyway as I really don't like the big borders of KDE and the teletubby lookalike themes available for it.
Actually you are missing the point. They didn't use KDE for "the rendering" =) They used Maya for that. But what they did do was that they used Shake for about 90 % of the compositioning. Shake now owned by Apple is being developed for Unix and Mac, they dropped the windows line totally awhile back.

How the hell can it be "nice" to try to slander a distro with bullshit.
You don't have the slightest idea of what you're talking about. Get a life and learn to understand your surroundings better.
What do Slashdot got against Gentoo?
The entire posting by simoniker was a flamebait to attract moron replies like this.
What's up with the stream of previews all in Quicktime format.
I can't think of a single format that sux more than quicktime.
Anyone here that rather see Quicktime over DivX?
This is rather yet another example on the beauty of open source. First CRC doesn't match.. hmmm ok what to do.. a diff butofcourse. Since this is opensource we can do that to see exactly what has changed.
To say this is another example of why everyone should use proprietary closed source is just moronic.
It never ceases to amaze me the stupidity of some people. Don't you guys realize that with billions and billions of planets having the same conditions as our planet out there, the probability the probability that life doesn't exist anywhere else is ALOT LESS than the probability that there is.
Try playing Quake 4 on an Intel Video card. Let us know how you get on.
Lol Quake 4. You realise that's a 5 year old game. Take something like Crysis or Bad Company 2 instead.

Like anybody wants classical music to begin with.
What's this nonsense. You already have the best compositioning software there is on linux. http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/promo/nuke.html
I agree to all but the last point.
Linux is not easier to use in any way.
The copy paste buffer you're talking about is stupid. As you have 2 copy paste buffers which constantly overlap when they shouldn't.

Slashdotted
Can someone explain what why the stupid post above got modded insightful. The guy OBVIOUSLY doesn't know C++.

Unfortunally all of those games are pieces of shit and not worth spening more than an afternoon on.
What's high speed internet in the states. Seriously. In Sweden it's 10MBit to 100Mbit. Anything lower is ridiculous and not even worth considering.

Ah the good old days, my warez site was nr 9 in europe (according to the DreamChart anyone remembers), ah and the carding.. mmmmmmm
