Yes but you're being voted +5 funny by people who find themselves laughing a jokes with punchlines like 'And the funny thing was he was trying it with a TMS320c32 processor!'
Or maybe that's just me;-)
No. That's very, very funny. You are not odd at all. Not. At. All.
How dare you inject reason and facts into a/. arguement? You're supposed to say Windoze Bad Linux Shiney Free and accuse anyone with a different view of being an MS shill or troll.
You sound too reasonable. That has no place in a Slashdot discussion.
Say what you will about Ubuntu, of all the Linux distros, it has the most polished out of the box experience.
Then you have never used Mandriva/Mageia. Great hardware support, sane defaults. Easy for the average user to admin. My only complaint with them is that their graphics are nice but uninspiring.
Mageia 3 should be released next month and is looking great in beta 4 dress.
My cellphone was stolen from my car and then recovered (it was found in the middle of the street). I called the long-distance numbers, pretending that I found the phone and wanted to return it to the owner. The people called (teenagers) were surprisingly helpful and I got the name and local address of the teen that called them who was staying with his uncle. I turned the info over to the police who told me that the loss was actually incurred by the phone company (charges had been refunded) and I was not "harmed" so there were no charges to press, plus the kid could claim that he "found" the phone and did not break into my car. But the detective did talk to the uncle and told me he thought the uncle was going to beat the kid's ass and send him back to Louisiana since the kid had been a problem since he got here. Good enough for me whether true or not since it was all that could really be done.
It would be a catchy name if he didn't mess around with the letter casing.
I was actually making fun of the original meaning of the acronym. Yes, it was actually called the "Kool Desktop Environment" before the founder wised up.
Perhaps "kLYde" would better suggest the new name ?
For RPM-based distros, it's easy enough to set up a task-*.rpm to install a minimal subset of the entire repository for a specific purpose, like a LAMP server. I'm sure.deb-based distros have something similar, so I'm really not seeing the problem here, just a lack of understanding the power of FOSS by the OP.
Really? Why are we arguing over something so trivial as turning off a device for 15 minutes until you're in the air? We need instant gratification 100% of the time? Deal with it.
I don't believe anybody would have a problem with the rule IF THE DEVICES ACTUALLY CAUSED A PROBLEM.
But since they do not cause problems, most people are not happy being subjected to a useless, arbitrary rule for no reason other than "Because we can, that's why".
If you feel comfortable obeying a rule like that, I suggest you get some counseling or just STFU.

But because she looks like a mooslim terrorist! No politician gets into trouble putting "those terrorist people" in jail after a terror attack.
So where's the torrent link to the DVD? Then we can see for ourselves.

Somebody post the link to the latest version that uses the 2.4 kernel, so this can be a useful Slashdot bookmark.
The first porn site restored . . .
Surely, this is archived somewhere.

or maybe 8.1
Windows 8.1 is just lipsick on a pig.
Since we now know what Plan "Eh?" was all about.

This is something the professionals need to handle, not people like you and me.
Professionals built the Titanic; amateurs built the Ark.
My farts can help improve the world!
Which is mostly "People" and golf magazines.
But I just put a Kindle app on my phone, so probably none from now on.
BTW, traditional magazines suck being read on a smart phone or Kindle.
It's a trap!
"Klyde."

So the Kool Ly Desktop Environment?
Makes no sense.
or they'll have cratered and release MS Office for Linux.

if you use a compatable release of Office.
My copy of MS Office 2003 works good enough I've never had any problems.
Is shodanhq.com dangerous?
I just tried to establish an account and got this warning:

This is why we can't have nice things.
Announcing North Korea 10G coming soon! Better than everybody!
Billiions of dollars for aircraft that are vulnerable to a laser pointer that costs a few bucks. It's a disgrace.

. . . it's just our policy.
2. Media coverage, because if you shoot up a school and get a high enough kill count, you're going to be on the front page of CNN etc. for weeks.
You get your own graphics and theme music so it is so worth it.
