All of KDE's apps have transparent access to any server. SFTP, FTP, Samba, whatever kind of protocol you want. Use something like Kate, it'll have a tabbed interface for multiple source files as well as doing syntax highlighting.
Tell that to my nice flatbed scanner, which hasn't worked with a Windows version since 98. Or my printer, same boat.
Windows doesn't work better. It works better when it's preinstalled with hardware that it's designed for. Same with Apple, same with Linux. Get yourself some quality hardware, and Linux starts working much better than Windows.
Because our Baby Boomers grew up differently than the rest of the world's I'd wager. There's still a sense of honor and balance, as well as self-sacrifice in the rest of the world's population that is very much hard to find in America as of late.
If you don't have the coordination to play games, you aren't the target audience. Go play a boardgame.
Do you also complain that baseball takes too much skill to hit the ball, and until they make the ball bigger and go slower, it'll remain a niche sport?
Maybe. But you have to wonder how far those races will spread, unless they're evolutionarily stable. A giant vagina or penis doesn't really lend itself to hunting, any kind of protection... much of anything, really. I'm betting that you'll make them, but it won't spread far.
Because you download things to a hard drive. Even with a few terabytes of space, you end up filling it. Only a few people are digital "packrats", downloading everything they can get their hands on, mostly just because they can. Other people only get what they want, and move on. With faster speeds, they'll move on faster.
If you don't think outside the box ever, how can you think that you'd be effective at security? Just because something is illegal does not mean it's wrong.
But drug tests don't see if you've smoked pot that day. They test to see if you've smoked pot at any point in recent history, and are grounds for dismissal. Sure, keep yourself clean while at work. But if you're high at work, then deal with it there. Don't think a drug test reveals anything about the weekend toker other than that he's smoked pot. It gives no indication as to performance.
Yeah, there are definitely some downsides. But for what I need it to do, it does it very well. The only apps I need are a few games, some media playing, Google's apps and... well, that's it. I have a laptop for serious computing. The Blackberry is only for dashing off emails and making sure nothing critical has blown up, as well as finding my way around a new town when I fly in. I can also use it as a modem for my computer without paying any more, so if I want a real web browser, I just turn on the laptop and hook it up through Bluetooth to the phone and I'm off surfing and don't have to worry about the embedded browser's foibles.
Really, I'm mostly a fan of T-mobile, and my Blackberry 8800 for now. The nicest thing about T-Mobile is that as soon as a nicer device comes along, I can just buy it and not worry about extending a contract or anything. It just works. And for now, the 8800 is the best device for what I need done.
I've got a Blackberry 8800 with all of the features you require (free apps for SSH and everything, I also run my own IMAP server) on T-Mobile, which has a flat-rate data plan and doesn't lock any devices. In fact, I just got a cheap Motorola L6 to toss in my pocket for when I don't feel like putting my crackberry on my hip when I go out. It has GPS, but no wifi. It does support music, but only MP3's, and no camera unfortunately. But the Pearl has Wifi and a camera, just no GPS that I'm aware of. So you can have most of your requireds and would-be-nice's.
Can you tell I'm a fan?;) I also like how T-Mobile treats me over Verizon... the only bad thing is that the mobile Internet isn't as fast as it is with a CDMA phone, since T-Mobile is GPRS/EDGE.
Problem is, in 32bit operation it's still just as fast as it would be in 64bit in most cases. For 90% of consumers, they'll get better compatibility and speed, and won't be wasting any resources unless they have 4GB or more of RAM, which almost all of those machines lack.
Not that I like Vista or anything... I haven't even used it, and I see no reason to do so. But there is a good technical reason to use a 32bit OS on a 64bit CPU, and it doesn't really hobble it that much. It'd be more like a V12 running on only 10 cylinders, if you want a better "analogy".
So get a Wii. Seriously... there are a ton of games that are available for it, and it takes more than just mashing buttons. It's what finally got my fiancee into actually wanting to play games. The XBox is a frat-boy toy. It's not made for families or groups of people.
According to TechDirt at least. Seems they're just going to allow a choice, rather than replace T-Mobile with AT&T. But why let the facts get in the way of a good headline...
Ummm... since when is ClamAV a security suite? I think you have no clue what you're talking about. A suite is a group of tools doing multiple different jobs, yet they work together. Like a firewall and an antivirus program being rolled into one "suite". ClamAV does... antivirus. And that's it. End of story. ClamAV is very good at what it does (especially relative to all the competitors in the field), it's lightweight, updated often, easy to use and install, exceptionally flexible in it's application, and it just works.
Feel free to correct any misapprehensions I may have, though... what exactly is it that Avast does better than ClamAV? Runs on Linux? No, that can't be it... free? Nope, Avast is only free for home use only (not even non-commercial use is allowed). Can it be chained into an email server? Nope. I can't really see any reason that Avast is significantly better than ClamAV for anyone other than grandma.
Oohhh, thanks for the idea! *runs off to patent having 5 or more walls and a roof keeping the water out* I'm sure I can twist that to apply to any building that isn't a perfect rectangle...
Because this "bullshit religion" causes real, physical harm to the citizens of the country. It's not just people believing what they want, they actively enforce punishments against people in their "religion" for not following dogma, and against people outside of the religion for ever saying anything bad about it. Live and let live is a fine idea, but Scientology isn't doing the "let live" part of that bargain.
Not everyone knows that Scientologists are a dangerous cult. It doesn't fall under the "No Shit Sherlock" heading for most people. Only the few who pay attention. Anonymous is trying to make it so that there are more than just a few who know and pay attention. The most dangerous thing for a cult is to have it's workings exposed to the world.
It's not hate of a religion. It's hate of a religious organization that systematically intimidates, threatens, brainwashes and misinforms people with serious real-world consequences. There's a reason they picked Lisa McPherson's birthday as a date to protest.
Windows won't use PAE very well in general, and will only turn on if you tell it to with a kernel switch. With Linux, you have to compile a kernel that's aware of it (set HIGHMEM64G=yes or something like), and it does lower the performance somewhat.
But by default, Windows and Linux will boot and just ignore any extra memory they can't address. PAE shouldn't enter the picture for any serious gamers.
GM wields influence over... what, 20-30% of the cars sold in the US? (Hey, I was right... 26.9% in 2004.) 24% is in no way a monopoly, and as such, they're perfectly fine not interoperating with other car companies, as long as they operate on the agreed-upon standards of our roads and highways, street legal laws, emissions, etc.
Microsoft on the other hand has 90% of desktops and a large number of servers under it's sway. If they make a unilateral move, they feel NO pain because of it, even if it hurts the consumers. If GM said "Screw this, we're going to force everyone to use kerosene as their fuel!", people would buy other cars. When Microsoft says the same thing, people have to do it, or not be able to share documents, etc. THAT, my friend, is the difference.
No, you just have to make it worthwhile for people to pay you to deal with the 1's and 0's instead of doing it themselves. Making copies of bits is no longer technically impossible, and business should treat it as such. There are plenty of models to still make money around music.
Trying to artificially limit an infinite resource is a stupid idea. You should charge for the value you add... you get air for free, but service stations charge you for the compressing it so it'll go into your tires. Same kinda concept... bits are infinitely replicable, so use the infinite good (the mp3) to promote the scarce good (concert tickets). And realize that you cannot "monetize" every single thing, and it doesn't make sense to. That's a bullshit idea that grew out of 80's economics and business practices, and only now are people starting to realize that when you do that, you're basically selling your invisible capital, such as your company's reputation and goodwill.

I certainly hope you know that the word is petard and you were just making a childish penis joke. I'd rather think you childish than stupid.

Starcraft and Brood Wars both install and run fine under Wine ;)
Just in case you needed a fix. I'm not trying to exacerbate your addiction, honest...
Which is why the only Blu-Ray drive I'll ever get will be connected to my PC, and subsequently used to rip the content to a usable format.
