  1. Re:Funniest bit was on Sony on Google Employee Accidentally Shares Rant About Google+ · · Score: 1

    It is not insightful at all. The Playstation Network, while a "successful product", compromised the private information of millions of its customers. What he is telling you, is that in the internal dialog held by the minds at Google, the compromise of the private information of millions of users means NOTHING to them. Insightful my ass.

    Dude, taking something to market is great in many ways but does nothing to fix the significant problems of your country.

    I can understand that you found a way to make peace with the slavery of barely making ends meet with a FT job and 2 businesses. One has to live each day, and one must fool oneself as needed.

    But you are barely living like an middle-age european peasant. And all the gains in productivity since the middle-ages? Into the pockets of the 1%.

    Sleep well.

    Worse than this, they ship printer software that will stop to ask questions after the installation progress bars are started, making it impossible to perform even that little function unattended. They often ship installers that unpack other installers, several levels deep. All their stupid autodetection schemes fail miserably all the time. JUST LET ME WRITE IN THE STUPID PRINTER IP!

    My "agenda" is to point out the hypocrisy. The same people that clapped in glee with the release of this and other govt. data should either clap in glee with the release of ALL hacked data, or should object to the release of ALL hacked data.

    All work on KDE should stop immediately and until KDE Network Manager Widget is rewritten from scratch, and the people responsible for the current version banned from any sort of software development more complex than Hello World. I wish, so much, that I was wrong or exaggerating.

    These are not our nerds. Those are paid to say the things they say, by the companies that will lose out if Linux succeeds. Consider for example this turd, polished to +4 moderation score:

    I never could get him to stop using our admin page with the Alexa widget (despite this happening twice and me upbraiding him for it both times), which prompted me to finally take time away from putting out other fires and redo the backend with security as a primary objective.


    For which you should be grateful! If you ever find yourself designing a system in which security is not a primary objective, you are not qualified to design that system.

    What is a code formatter to do when you try to paste code directly after an indented line of python? Any guess can be wrong, and all it CAN do is guess.

    You guessed wrong. The indentation in python contains the same information as all your brackets and semicolons, and thus can be used the same way. Not too surprising, coming from someone who's main language choice consideration is how it supports copy and paste.

    For what I want to do (mount remote file systems) KIO works better.


    No it does not. Seriously. I wish it did. I love KDE and can almost swallow KDE 4.5. However, gvfs allows ANY program access to the remote stuff you mount through it. KDE KIO simply can't match that. You can open a shell and cd into the damm ftp or Windows share or whatever and run commands on the files there.

    Just mount something through gvfs, open your shell and type 'cd ~\.gfvs' and you will see.

    I just noticed i didn't rant much about Gnome, just declared it dead. If you look at the screenshot in the grandparent comment, and the critique posted there you will understand. There is no way anything good will come out of that screenshot unless they delete all the sources for Gnome 3.x and kill themselves.

  21. Re:Probably a good thing on GNOME 3.0 Delayed Until March 2011 · · Score: 1

    It is really really bad. KDE is gone. I mean sure, it is more or less workable now, with glaring imcompleteness in some areas, and ZERO fucking polish. Gnome 2.x works very very well and is quite polished. I wish they were a bit more adventurous with options, like old KDE used to be without fucking up functionality.

    Now gnome will die too. KDE will take years to reach a state in which i do not feel embarassed to use it almost every other day. XFCE has nowhere near enough functionality for what I need in a Desktop Environment and what KDE and Gnome got me used to.

    And the KDE name change? That is the sign of a project with no leadership, right there. I thought germans had outgrown making big efforts for completelly stupid and useless things, but i guess that is just in automobile design.
