Latest GIMP allows you to dock tool palettes to each other. I have GIMP set up so that it's one large tool palette spanning the height of my monitor, but not very wide, and then I have the image window I'm manipulating beside it. All the tool palletes are docked into the one window and I navigate between them with tabs. There, only two windows to work with, not bad at all.
Meanwhile, GNU/Linux is already on my desktop and I couldn't really care less what Micro$oft does. I just use it because it is the best tool for my job. Period.
Hallelujah! I've been using Linux since around 2000 and I've been trying to ignore MS ever since. It's hard, MS is everywhere, but I do what I can, promote a little linux here and there, etc.
Isn't there some rule about proportionality in the legal system?
There is! You're simply misunderstanding what it is that's proportional. The fine for violating whatever law is proportional to the value of the bribes of the lobbyists pushing those fines.
He's arguing that the data we store in RSS is not inherently a "tree" and that it gains nothing from being represented as a tree. The example that was given earlier showed what an RSS feed could look like if it was in something similar to RFC 2822 as opposed to XML. I don't see anything wrong with that.
The difference is that in a 2d image, each eye sees the same image, so it looks "flat". If you provide a slightly different image to each eye, your brain will naturally construct a 3d view of the object. So there is some benefit there, assuming the data you're trying to view benefits from a 3d representation.
Heh, yeah. I remember when I lived on campus, at times there'd be warnings not to connect to the internet because you'd get a worm from the other infected hosts on the network. Being a linux user, I just laughed at them.

Here is a torrent of season 2 of Penn & Teller: Bullshit, which contains the Recycling episode. Unfortunately I couldn't find a torrent of just that episode. I would really recommend this to everybody. Recycling is wasteful at every step of the way and it's only benefit is that it makes you feel good (but hey, so does smoking).
People seem to draw the conclusion that because Linux is principally open source, that no enterprise level support exists for it, and any application that runs on it is automatically free by association.
Once, my grandmother had a garage sale. One of the things she was trying to get rid of was an old vacuum cleaner. It still worked perfectly well but she didn't need it any more, so she decided to give it away for free at the garage sale. On the first day of the garage sale, nobody took it. On the second day of the garage sale, nobody took it. On the third day of the garage sale, she decided to sell it for $25 and it sold in the first hour after changing it's price.
Lesson learned: Nobody wants anything for "free", if something is free of charge, it must have something wrong with it. After all, if it was worth using, they'd be charging for it! Nobody is stupid enough to give away something good for free, right? Right?

Kinda like this:

Except instead of having one big panel on the far left and far right of the screen, I just cram it all into one big panel on the left.

I still use virtual desktops though.

It surprises me that the traffic in these terratories is only 1TB, I have friends that go through more than that in a week of file sharing.
The quoted figure was one terabyte per second, so your friends who take a whole week to process one terabyte do not impress me.

Well, I'm glad we got that calrified.
...and make certain that autorun of CD-ROMs is disabled in the registry.
Sure, it sounds paranoid...bit is it paranoid enough?
Not paranoid enough to avoid Windows like the plague.
Don't worry. We can call it "Really Screwy Syndication" and keep the acronym ;)

I learned to drive from GTA.

...can still achieve up to 10 times optical zoom by changing its shape similar to the human eye.
If somebody can please tell me how to take advantage of this 10x optical zoom in my human eye, that'd be super.
Because animals are "cute."
Ehhhh, if you've ever seen how they prepare food, you'd probably think the opposite.
I'd rather eat a sterile slab of boneless muscle grown in a lab than a hairy poop machine that got sliced and diced.
It might at a Canadian army base where they don't actually close the gates ;)
Pfft. I knew you were going to pretend to know that he was going to type that. Poser.

Funny, don't all slashdot stories come from this department?

Clearly the only solution is the systematic termination of all politicians.

Actually, I was born with a PhD and a chemistry set.
