The symptoms you described are identical. Tabs ad infinum when 'always use this action' is checked.
However, I ALWAYS get the "open with" dialog (Local or remote) and I have removed the svg action from the file types. It must be something in my config.
Thanks for your help though!
I must be an idiot but when I try to open an SVG file all I get are repetitive dialogs asking what I want to do with this file. It never actually loads the xml.
When are they going to stop breaking the themes implementation with each version?? I'm not much of a coder, but shouldn't the hooks for themes stay more or less the same?
You think it's funny, but there ought to be some standard for parenthood. While regulating people's right to reproduce may not sit very well with some (myself included), I can't help thinking that a lot of social ills might be benefited.
I've used all three mainline windows browsers. IE, Firefox, Opera. IE is, for me, unusable. No tabs, slow, dull. It's a relic. And this from the 'leading' software company in the world.
I've been using firefox for a good while now and I love it. It's everything you want and need plus inifinite customability.
Having said that. I've used opera before but didn't like the ads and wasn't about to pay for features I could get for free. I downloaded it today and the speed of it puts firefox to SHAME.
I'll probably continue using firefox but I can definitely see why people love this browser. Anyways. I'm just ranting. I'm sure no one gives a shit:)
Does anyone know if enlightenment plans on having tabs? IMO that's the single biggest feature missing from enlightenment and the reason I'm going to have to stick with fluxbox
Again, your analogy is tenuous at best. While it is that supply and demand are closely tied together, the need for food and water is very real. On the other hand the need for a $50 laptop is manufactured.
I wholeheartedly agree with you that peope in Brazil or China would react the same way given the same circumstances. ie: the pervasion of the idea that stuff=well-being
There's an enormous difference between a 'feeding frenzy' and people running over each other and hitting one another with chairs to get a LAPTOP.
One is about survival. The other is about greed.
Perhaps you are the one who should try to understand reality a little better. The analogy you gave is almost the complete opposite to the situation described in this article.
At least morally speaking.
It's typical that whenever anyone points out a flaw in our system, apologists will immediately raise the cry of communism.
I didn't say that capitalism was futile, I don't think I even implied it. I only stated a symptom of a system which has chosen to give equal, if not greater rights, to corporate entitites than to individuals.
Rampant consumerism is just a symptom of capitalism. It's been the trend for 20 years and shouldn't come as much of a surprise. All our lives we've been told to buy. It's the number one meme of our time.
Additionally: in response to other posts in this thread, it IS predominately a Western ideal. Far fro m being prevalent in the whole world, it is very much a product of the united states(+japan) and some of europe.
Thank you for your lucid and insightful comments. I wish more people had the ability to construct coherent arguments without letting personal prejudices and emotionalism cloud their thoughts. Myself included, I suppose.
Having said that - and off topic though it is - I do think that more can be done by the world, the US included, to reduce the suffering of aids victims in South Africa. The amount of financial aid not withstanding
Please please, someone tell me what nataly portman as to do with hot grits! I read slashdot almost every day but I must have missed that one and I can't find it
How ironic that the real reason for the US military force is to ensure people like you have a voice and the ability to express your opinions. Sad
Oh yes, that old rhetoric. The same nonsense spouted by defenders of US foreign policy since the 60's. This might have been true during WWII, but the biggest threat to freedom and independence in the world today is NOT Russia, Chine, Iraq, N.Korea, Iran, etc etc... but the United States of America. The war in Afghanistan, the war in Iraq did absolutely nothing to ensure your freedom, or mine. Ask yourself whether the threat of terrorism has lessened or grown since the US began this campaign.
However. If by freedom you mean corporate america's god given right to profit, then you might have a point. What of 100 000 dead as long as the money keeps coming in, as long as we have enough oil to go around.
I LOVE blind patriotism. It's such a comfort not having to think
And they pretty much all have a trained military, so substitute your appropriate country name in if you want to get all upset about me posting a US-Centric post on a US-Centric site regarding a story which is only happenening in the US
The difference is that the purpose of their armed forces is defense, whereas the US' is empire building. The war on terrorism is a thinly veiled facade for imperialism, hardly better cloaked than converting the heathen masses.
Considering this is/., yes you probably ARE the only one.

Maybe there's more to the world than the United States?? Just because you -as an american- have never bothered to take a glance outside your cultural landscape, doesn't preclude his influence on the rest of the world...

Stupid question maybe... but don't you run out of inodes rather quickly?

(and that's assuming all 7 billion people uses P2P, so that part might be much more smaller in fact...)
That's rather difficult seeing as the population of the world is 6,446,131,400.

Yeah, because perl has NATIVE objects

Unlike regular book which you can sell, or lend, DRM'D books will only let the original purchaser read the material.

The disbelief of an all powerful being requires as much faith as the belief in one. I'm sorry to inform you that your world view is not a panacea
God..
