As I understood it the designer behind that one is a one which worked with Moore until he died (at age 54?) and later continued with the work.
I'm not all that surprised there wasn't much interest for that can though. Then again maybe it was awesome to avoid branches, offer some protection, let you carry gear / rifle,.. Maybe it just looked worse:)
Argue anything you want but the one who earn the most obviously do the better thing vs the one who do the worst regardless.
You could for instance write a portable OS in C and a very platform specific in Assembler (less relevant point today but whatever) and make the argument why either is the better approach than the other but if one makes nothing and the other make billions that argument isn't worth all that much longer anyway.
There's also the possibility of showing menus when you click the right mouse button as say Amiga did (which also had global/screen menus and focus follow mouse if you wanted it.)
Personally I've previously been a fan of global menus and haven't understood why you wouldn't want them since window menus just take up more space. It may demand less mouse movement and be somewhat more intuitive though.
In the Unity shots for Ubuntu it seem like the menus are built in the title bar of the window and as such they don't take any more space so that seem good to me (but once again may be less intuitive for people who don't expect them there or want to see them the whole time for some reason (to easily find out where to navigate?))
There's alo the possibility of throwing up the menus on top of whatever data is below in a tree style like the windowmaker/afterstep/*box/... menus.
Haven't bought it yet but should had bought it when Nuuvem sold it for cheap. It can be had for about 100 SEK not from GetGames or something but I haven't picked it up.. Since I haven't got the computer no need to hurry it..
There already was a Slashdot group on Steam but it have 7 members and a weird logotype so it may not have anything to do with this forum which is sad.
If I get an order in for a new PC which I should had been doing for long I would be up for playing Starbound with someone/someones from Slashdot.
I'd also be up for playing through all the Serious Sam games with someone who isn't pro in them / FPS games already (I've played quite a bit of Quake but I've never been able to time and time successfully strafe jump even less played the game exploiting it =P, I tried to learn for a short while but it just didn't happened normally.)
I've got a hell of a lot of bundle games and X-com and such too. But Serious Sam has always been something I've really been looking forward too and I would be ok with wasting time in Starbound too:)
I also have Magica with all the expansions if that's something anyone would be interested in playing.
Maybe we could set up a group or something. My e-mail address you can find above, I kinda have no games added on Steam and obviously isn't in there playing but my user name there is the same but with an extra "e" at the end (this one was already used and an extra e make it end in "se" which work for me from a logical standpoint.)
I asked on Facebook whatever they felt like they could really spare the cost of one JSF to save the planet..
Of course one billion won't get you there..
Also the U.S. is (was just recently at least) the biggest consumer of energy on the planet and you peope can blame the manufacturing part of the world all you want but the fact is that lots of what is produced is produced for people in the richer part of the world too..
The U.S. may be better than some but they obviously isn't too willing to join initiatives with others or measure up to some of the better countries.
Then again I too feel it's pretty retarded than some poor idiot in the jungle pours out mercury (which I assume doesn't cost much..) to extract gold where the gold collected isn't worth enough to compensate for the real cost of the mercury let out into nature (if I remember correctly, then again I have no idea how those numbers was made up, what it cost to remove it? Damage done to nature? How much one would be willing to spend to keep it out of nature in more developed places?) and even worse they also have to turn a profit and not just cover their expenses so the real gain from that mercury is much less.
I also don't get why I have to get some stuff like a rubber pencil with an envelope advertising some magazine subscription when I will just throw the damn pencil away anyway. Yay! GDP! GDP!
So yeah, I do realize some of the poorer people may do more damage than some of the richer people because of bad decisions. On average though I would still assume the average U.S. citizen is still rather environmentally filthy compared to the average human of the planet.
Slashdot Mirror
Except AMD Mantle isn't limited to a single vendor? Supposedly? In the future? If someone want to implement it? =P
Whereas DirectX kinda is :)
Then again it's more popular and relevant as is.
Just call Microsoft and ask them whatever they'd rather have them re-install Ubuntu to fix the situation.
I'm sure some would pay $28 to not get a bunch of crapware added into their "fresh" install. Skip the stickers too.
Also for someone who want to run it today:

If using UAE is your thing, baby:

And even if the survey is real it's obvious that quite a few people aren't willing to answer the survey seriously.
They likely wouldn't find me on Facebook.
(And if they did enjoy all the contest spam posts which are among the few things shared public.)

They all controlled great :)
lol, I have to read up on it.
They should send an official "U mad bro?"
How is that the US problem really?
Also fine, do it, help give initiative to switch to better energy sources.
Considering you've always been able to get a Linux distribution for free ..
So.. where's my insightful rather than troll like this guy?
Yes.
Then again if you have a lot of value stored in it you better take good care of your identifications. As with GPG keys and such ..
In what you earn from doing what you do?
Argue anything you want but the one who earn the most obviously do the better thing vs the one who do the worst regardless.
You could for instance write a portable OS in C and a very platform specific in Assembler (less relevant point today but whatever) and make the argument why either is the better approach than the other but if one makes nothing and the other make billions that argument isn't worth all that much longer anyway.
The result is much more relevant than why or how.
... with my DNA.
So my thoughts really are shit?
Not true.
I don't know what definition those used though. But it was far from 1:1.
Someone mentioned alt-click drag.

I'd be up for that too.

I just learned it was, maybe not all that surprising, western nations (GB and France) who made those nations/borders in the first place..
The enemy of peace and stability have likely often been western military powers interfering and destabilizing regions.
This also can lead to a cult of the offensive:

lol, also true in RTS games.
So you think those towers/turrets with catapults/missile launchers/.. behind them will save you and win the war? Think again.
How do one set up rules to block Steam from accessing firefox profiles? (Linux obviously, though guide for Windows is fine too. Also Chrome.)
Is relative competition that important then?
Surely some of us will have some consequences and it will still cost us?
Norway seemed to get by easily though (at least if you only look at the costal lines.)
1 billion is nothing.
I asked on Facebook whatever they felt like they could really spare the cost of one JSF to save the planet ..
