Be careful if you build one on the moon, though. Those people will get uppity and use it as high ground to gain independence from the democratically-elected governments of Earth.

Didn't knew about it but I like Razor-Qt.
I also like the desktop in Parted magic which I think is among other things running LXDE? Parted Magic for whatever reason seem very fast to (I don't get why Ockular feel quicker in some distributions / setups than other.)

I'm all ok with people switching to Qt.
I'm ok with people writing applications for KDE to.
I personally don't agree with whatever guidelines KDE people have for how to design user interfaces though. Toolbars, ugly drag holders, vertical tabs with rotated text! WTF?! Tabs too wide for the window where you have to scroll between them and so on..
So much crap in the user interfaces. Also on this low-end machine which should had been killed a long time ago and be replaced by something much more powerful and will be so installing Qt and KDE programs in general pull in a lot of other stuff, like install digikam and get close to 500 MB of stuff. What's much better over in GTK camp is that you get many more programs to pick from, in general they are more independent (good and bad but then again some "KDE" programs (not really I guess) like Clementine doesn't botter with the common stuff anyway) and much smaller in size and you can pick a more freely of what you want without getting everything else at the same time.
The KDE philosophy may be fine IF you can throw more or less unlimited resources on it and IF their solutions was the best ones available and IF everything used it. But that's not the case. Now it may still be quite ok if you at least have the first one solved..
I guess OS X give less to pick from in general but often better / more clevery designed software and user interfaces and with Windows you of course got a shitload to pick from and something likely works good for you.
Also I think 10 mbps is still pretty ok, 30 mbps is definitely ok/enough atm. More only serves a purpose if you're into piracy imho.
Also I regulary see the argument and while many Swedes live in cities (I guess many individuals in the US do to) the country is about the size of California with 9+ million people.
How many live in California?
US is 22 times larger with 35 times as much people living in it. Sure some parts are in the wildness but is the average really that much worse / different?
Will be awesome when you can 3dprint your food. Even better when the matter is brought into existance from energy (or maybe not depending on what's easier to come by =P, use sand or trash as raw material, turn it into energy and use the energy to make whatever matter needed for the food? Fine for me.)
Yeah, I have a hard time seeing any benefit with 1 gbps atm, and on average the bandwidth used/needed won't change much so it's not much to write about or charge for.
I don't really want to make fun out of that and your situation and I think his post really suck and was insulting and stupid.. And I'm a fellow swede.
Anyway, what I really want to say is of course that some people likely even can get paid for having Internet access using their mouth.
Which of course is totally off-topic and got nothing to do with the posts above.
Of course there's things one can enjoy on the Internet even without any hands. And as you've shown reading and commenting on Slashdot and using Linux are some of them.
The only good options is the ones people don't use, because if people was using them why would I even have to mention them? So yeah. Obscure is good and your pick suck.
Yeah, so it was a bigger drop. Each and every Apple product have fixed price until the next one arrive. Guess it doesn't sell as many units as they want it to so they dropped the price.
Stuff that happens.
They don't need to lower the price for someone who have already bought the thing. Wtf is that?
Slashdot Mirror
So you're saying it's after us? Inform Bush!

We can throw a bigger rock though!
Reading the post two steps above mine or whatever.
Though "dual monitor" seem like something which one would more likely search for than "sli", sli is even totally unrelated.
Tried a new search with: nvidia x dual monitor
Second hit there is: ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/304.32/README/configtwinview.html
Which make more sense.
Third hit is: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaMultiMonitors
But none of those mention what he was suggested to use?
Anyway.. Whatever. Good to know where to find it later on if ever needed.
Took me the first attempt when I knew what I was looking for.
Google: nvidia x sli
Second hit.
The UK is the first country to disconnect from the Internet?
Well, I for sure wouldn't want to live there with retarded limits like this.
Where's your freedom?
Since this is Norway we can likely assume it is/was 200 and 50 m^2.
But since people in the US THINK DIFFERENT! (That one got to hurt!)
For new debt I don't know how much of a problem that is since FED likely is the biggest buyer as is ..
Debt levels still increasing here in the EU. More than the growth (which may change though.)

Yeah. Try to block all the spying organisations by blocking traffic from the countries they operate from ..
At least you'll get local speed to all of your accessible part of the Internet!
Also what's up with the super power stuff? I assume it's just there to turn this news item into more of a story.
Personally I think China will be a super power not long from now. They are growing economically and they are many. Simple as that.
Do we?
We could had been I'd say.

Also we just had that 31 terabit story less than 24 hours ago.
Also it's not like $57 is very cheap.
And how many clients?
Who many biggers in Thai are occupied translating to Swedish? Or is it just randomizing some words?
Create heat?
You do understand trees doesn't store carbon forever? Unless you say burry them airtight or something such?
Linus eat your salmiak licorice.
Once there was Sun. And Oracle. And Apple. And ...
And they was all professionals.
And they all acted so very mature.
(Once there was mac, Amiga and Atari fan boys .. )
The only good options is the ones people don't use, because if people was using them why would I even have to mention them? So yeah. Obscure is good and your pick suck.
But not the density of space. And looking at where the US population is going.. Or should we say not going, ..
(I don't even know if my physics is correct :))
Or you sit there like:
"Stupid animation just show me the content."
Why the fuck would they do anything?
Price on electronic product fell? OMG!
Yeah, so it was a bigger drop. Each and every Apple product have fixed price until the next one arrive. Guess it doesn't sell as many units as they want it to so they dropped the price.
