w3schools is a site for people *learning* to make websites. Back when I were a n00b I used IE and I visited w3schools. Now that I know what I'm doing I use firefox and reference my locally stored copies of all the w3c standards. Thus it could be argued that w3schools would have a/lower/ percentage of non-ie browsers.
For what it's worth, my web server is used to show my avatar on the megatokyo forums, and that accounts for ~95% of my site hits. According to those stats Gecko has 50%, IE has 40% and others have 10%. Again, the stats you get really depend where you look for them...
I would guess that tutorial to be a tounge in cheek response to all the photoshop users saying "The GIMP sucks! it doesn't even have a straight line tool!", and then when pointed out how easy it is go on to complain about how "The GIMP sucks! It's impossibly over-complicated!"
Yes, you drag out a line rather than use a dedicated line drawing tool. It's not that hard, really.
You *are* aloowed to charge more than a copy fee - you can charge as much as you like, provided you give source code. The problem here is that he isn't giving away the source code. You can get the *nix source, but that's not what was used to build the win32 exe.
Erm, from what I see, money has nothing to do with it - the problem is that he's not giving away the source, despite the contributors implicitly using GPL; He's changing the entire licence of the win32 branch to protect his own platform-specific modifications.
One wonders just what these modifications are, that they're important enough to warrant going closed-source...
That wasn't there when I first looked, nor it seems when the other guy looked (he estimated it to be every 6 minutes) - maybe the creators read my comment & fixed it?
What? Whether data comes from one server or a p2p net, it still travels the me <-> ISP pipe, and whether data goes to a client or a net, it still goes through the server <-> world pipe. How do you think this'll change that?
But how can one explain the humour without killing what little there is? I have yet to see anyone explain the humour in/anything/, and have the humour intact at the end.
I still don't get why people like akira; It and ghost in the shell were the first two anime films I watched (being the only two I'd heard of) - Akira bored me, GitS made no sense the first time round, but has grown on me to become one of my favourite films (And having the manga version helps - the film is a very short condensation of only one aspect of the book, maybe the manga of akira is better too?).
All I got from akira was "psychic psycho kills stuff. the end. (also note: cool bike)", which seems far less interesting than GitS's "AI becomes life, contemplates the meaning of it's own existance"
I found the sysrq key very useful when I had a dodgy graphics card and wanted to do a clean reboot; Pause / Break is actually useful for doing what it says (in text mode at least) - Pressing it causes the program to wait, so if I have a long compile going on but I need some CPU for a minute, I can flip to the compiling terminal and pause it, then unpause later with no side effects. Then the windows keys I also use for moving backwards or forwards through the text mode terminals.
So there are people who use them, even if you don't:)
They pay for it; It's the taking copyrighted works without paying that people complain about, filesharing in itself is fine (so long as you aren't sharing copyrighted works without paying, which most people do, which is why the RIAA are making a fuss about it)
in ext3 there is no such thing as fast fsck after bad shutdown
AFAIK, with journalling, there shouldn't be *any* fsck after a bad shutdown - with the few times I've pulled out power cords, I've never seen an ext3 fscking.
Then it seems that reiser spends about a second doing a fast fsck every boot, whether is was shut down cleanly or not...

I want a contacts database for gaim and others to sync up to, but I don't want evolution as a whole - would it really be so hard to separate them?
Or one PC from 5 years in the future...
The source code has no mention of 30 day evaluation or registration - thus the published source doesn't create the published binary.

Pretty picture :)

Doesn't give a usable time scale though; it has "HTTP requests", but not "per second" / "per minute" or anything

This has always confused me; How, pray tell, does "being unafraid to show intelligence" == "asking to be beaten up"?
I think the safest thing to do would be to use Winamp 4; no exploits for that :)
it is :D
I have E16, some EFL progs, and some GTK progs (no QT/KDE) running quite happily on 64 :)
So there are people who use them, even if you don't :)

As it happens, that's what's being done with Edje, one of the new enlightenment foundation libraries. Very nice it is too :)
I vaguely remembered it from a fortune, so yeah, sort of plagiarism :)
Copying one person is plagarism, copying many people is research.
It's slashdot. Of course there are dupes.
