    dont talk about things you have no idea about.
    maybe all the (few?) vegetarian meals you have seen are like that, i am vegetarian for long time and the meals that look like meat that i have eaten you can count with the fingers in one hand.
    nobody dies for the lack of meat, except beings that need it because of the cold (like the esquimos), no enzymes or proteins that are needed for the human being are exclusively found in meat.

    how the FU** is it possible that are still morons complainig about the spatial nautilus???
    go read something about spatial file managers before trolling, and YES, there are LOTS of people who love it that way and are not in any ways related to the developers.

  8. Re:How will this affect *BSD? on LSB Submitted To ISO/IEEE · · Score: 4, Interesting

    From linuxbase.org:

    Is the LSB only for Linux systems and applications?
    No. The spec has been written so it can be readily implemented on top of any UNIX-like operating system, natively or as a compatibility layer. There is also no fundamental reason why it cannot be implemented on other operating systems, although it is likely to be much more work. Note that this philosophy may be one of the reasons why a seemingly "obvious" Linux feature is not part of the specification if it raises needless barriers to implementing the LSB on non-Linux systems.

  9. Re:It's called /opt on Bundled Applications for GNU/Linux? · · Score: 1

    i dont usually compile anything as i found everything i need in the repositories :)
    but, when i download software that doesnt need configure && make && make install, i just put it in /opt and make symlinks also. works really well and does not get lost :)

    some examples include: skype, blender, realplayer, acrobat reader..

    having this drivers open is not only for nerds or geeks to be happy. it would probably help the kernel people to include a better support for it.. possibly having it better integrated in the kernel..
