I considered crime as a career option when I was young, and decided that it was for losers. Concealing repeated crime would require so much hard work and attention to detail, that anyone qualified to do it is also qualified for a rather high-paying job.
If you think about it, the saying "crime doesn't pay" is just another way of saying the labor market works.
I once spoke with an FBI agent about bak robberies. Most theft from banks is from employees, is almost always caught but rarely prosecuted because banks don't want the negaive publicity. They catch the regular bank robbers because they are careless or stupid or both. But there is a small number of inelligent, skilled bank robers that will never get caught because they know the system well, don't get greedy, don't live flamboyantly and never make mistakes. Fortunately, there are very few of these people, but a succesful life of crime is possible, but as you realized, way too much work.
he's fucking hilarious, but seriously, tapestries work fabulously. Wool blankets from the army navy store, if they're cheap right now, work well. Used carpet works wonders.
Going on 15 years with Debian along-side OS X and not a single fucking release before a few weeks later in apt-get within Sid do I have some packager screwing up dependencies and/or patching software incorrectly but uploading a new update because it worked on their hobbled configuration, while never testing on a clean staging box to see if his chroot environment has something a standard box will not. It's a constant fiddle fuck with every bit.
Mac hardware sucks compared to the PC. A PC running OSX on a virtual machine is better than a Mac and cheaper. Why would he do this? I always suspected he was selling out, and he's fueling these rumors with his behavior. Remember him pushing Mono/.Net? Remember him defending Microsoft?
In a LinuxFORMAT editorial over a decade a go, I labled him as a sellout. He has never proved me wrong.
Maybe he's just butthurt that Gnome probably doesn't have much of a future.
de Icaza's GNOME's raison d'être has always been as a philosophy of opposition, of negativity, of disdain for the end user, of contempt for things not GNOME-ish.
That's not a healthy or sustainable premise. You can now see the results.
It goes without saying that Miguel has a proven track record of producing free software.
Yes, but his personal philosophy has become bankrupt and his principals have been self-compromised.
US Car Analogy: He's more modern Thunderbird than modern Mustang GT. European Car Analogy: He's more Yugo than Fiat. Asian Car Analogy: He's more Hyundai Excel than Hyundai Genesis.
This might matter IF he had made it possible to install Steam on ANY major Linux distro. This just makea "Steam for Ubuntu" into "Steam for Debian", so . . .
"We realized we perjured ouselves in requesting a DCMA takedown of a fan video of a crash where spectators were injured. It made us look bad and made racing appear unsafe for spectators and would hurt our business. Besides, the video showed a lack of respect for the Women, Veterans and First Responders who may have been injured. We support and love these dedicated American Heroes who sacrifice everything for this Great Country and would undoubtedly support us in our loving, caring, selfless decision. Since he drinks beer, President Obama is probably a big race fan and I'm sure Obama and Jesus would support us in this no matter what the law says. I know Jesus would forgive us." Speedway President Joie Chitwood told CNN.

JUST A SPREADSHEET.
But we should ban spreadsheeting, you know, because of the children.

Most crimes are solved because the criminal is careless or stupid or both.
It's all good.
BWAHAHAHAHA!

Danger Will Robinson! Fire hazard.
One more reason to abandon GNOME as it moves further from its UNIX roots. It's become a culture based on negativity and we-know-better-than-you.
I want less social media, not more choices of time wasting.
Use Apple's bug reporting system. Last time I reported something, it got fixed in the next release.
I glad that worked well for you Mr. Jobs.
As in, he's screwed it as much as he can. Now, it's time to screw up Apple.
Either that or he's just a complete plank who is self-aggrandising by stating he's going Mac.
Linux isn't done until Mono doesn't run?

You just need a better distro.

Show me the data or STFU.
It's nice to know NASCAR has a copyright on injuries to consumers of their product.
Microsoft has a lot of license fees to pay.

Just like Linux and the PS3.
Whatever they say or do, they can and will change their minds.
What versions of spyware and keyloggers will this Ubuntu comes with?
Poke the snake and get bitten.
What keylogger will they be running on this one?
How about

Until Valve releases a distro-agnostic client, it should be called "Steam for Ubuntu".
Linux is much more than just Ubuntu.
I am, however, appreciative of Valve's efforts and wish them well.
Uh, guys... we can probably stop trying to troubleshoot with all the obvious stuff like turning the car off, shifting to neutral, parking brake, etc.
From the article:
A Renault technician had been on the phone with police throughout the chase trying to help but couldn't come up with a solution.
Did they think to ask the car to surrender? /oblig
