On my linux box my google desktop search doesn't work either.
I would speak favorably of MSN search if it would work on my computer, but it has some bugs and keeps craping with some error numbers. So, for me at least, Google desktop search works while MSN doesn't.
It might have been abuse from the police. If it's not brought to trial, one may never know if the police was right or not. In the mean time, they manage to scare us (or suprnova for that matter). Anyway, I won't cry. There are dozens of other good torrents sites anyway... usually offering better services then suprnova (rss feeds, email announcements of new files, etc) and almost the same content.
And look at this: first there was Napster, then Kazaa, then donkeys and bittorrent and there is always IRC and Usenet, it seems to me there will always be a way to get the stuff if you don't want to pay.
Fucking AC and./ grammar Nazis... If you understand the message, what else does it matter? Instead of being thankful to be able to communicate over the entire mapamond, regardless of distance and language barriers, you're being picky on the grammar of a (probably) non-native English speaker.
Loser... I bet you don't know any foreign languages, and if you did, you probably, wouldn't rise to the level of the grand-parent poster.
Disclaimer: I am one of those non-native English speakers.
Do I sense a troll in the parent post?
I mean... come on! Even on a low level machine (1 Ghz) the compilation of Qt+KDE will be done at the most in 24 hours
Ok, so if God created everything, should this imply that God also created Satan? But the Bible doesn't say so... and Satan existed since the beginings, he tempted Eve... so either God is One the Minor Gods (TM) and is using us to fight agains the evil (haha) or I should choose to believe in the god that has higher power and offered the world the knowledge, in this case it might be Satan.
Or, like I do, choose to believe this entire thing is just bulshit. Every civilization on this planet had the concept of gods and higher powers. In some cases, the gods were the thunders or the cows or whatever. Their teachings are just as misterios, filled with wisdom and history. Yet "there is only one God".
I am sure this universe is full of wonders and there are beings that are superior to us. But I don't thing they steal our "imortal souls" after death and put them in heaven or hell acording to our deeds. This is ridiculos: why would anyone care about anything of this planet?
I've seen spyware targeted at firefox and java applets that would want me to install something I was not curious enough to see. Fortunately, I was always asked if I want to install (security mechanism in Java and Firefox). I think grandpa' will click ok on those boxes, without reading them first.
At this moment photoshop has more features and is a lot easier to use than gimp.
One important factor that you need to consider: there are a TON of free tutorials and resources and documentation on the internet. It is a lot easier for beginers to start in the photoshop camp because of this.
As for those who use photoshop on a daily basis (I'm close to being just that) and use photoshop for graphic composition instead of just adjusting photos or simple graphics: they won't switch because photoshop has more useful features (I cannot imagine the world before Photoshop 5, when Adobe introduced the layer styles) and after you learn each shortcut to the last detail, you just won't switch for anything but something a lot better.
What's the status on film gimp? I would love to see an open source after effects replacement coming from that way.
better suport from open source application
This is why you were marked troll. They have no support for open source at all. This is an out and out lie.
Haha. What I said was "Much better Linux support", as in much better drivers and "better suport FROM open source application". Not FOR. Blender runs a lot better with Nvidia cards and in general I've found that open source applications run a lot better on nvidia than on ati.
Care to explain why that board, that is supposed to make full resolution video capture, with 4 times above their hardware specs cannot do it? Why their multimedia center software, the only one that can display the tv tuner channels, crashes constantly even with the latest drivers? And their latest windows drivers are from around 2001. Is this how a company that wants to be the biggest provider of consumer video cards treats its customers. Yes, I'm trolling, but maybe somebody else will not make my mistake.
To the moderator who mod me troll: care to give an explain why Ati hasn't provided until now a driver for Linux for my Ati All-in-Wonder Rage 128 Pro that I bought in 2000 and I paid a shit load of money?

I presume that at one point the submiter might use XSI. You may not know it, but XSI is included in the HL2 SDK (abeit a limited version of XSI called Experience). Valve used XSI in making HL2 and are including it in the SDK so that gamers can create their own models.
SDK Release Announcement
Valve has released the Source Software Development Kit (SDK) Tools via Steam. A precursor to the release of the full SDK, which will be released shortly after Half-Life 2 is made available, the Source SDK Tools release offers a comprehensive toolset for starting production on Source-based MODs, including Hammer, XSI EXP for Half-Life 2, compiling tools, the Source Model Viewer, documentation on programming, modeling, building materials, and more. For more information, please visit http://www.valve-erc.com/srcsdk/.
And this is just one of the many users having problems with Ati boards and drivers
Much better Linux support, less problems in high-end application such as XSI, better OpenGL drivers,much larger user base, better suport from open source application (I've been a "fan" of ATI until I really started to use Nvidia cards. I don't want to go back. )
Plone has Epoz, the WYSIWYG text editor, a cross-browser platform independent text area editor:). I know, a lot of plone advocacy from me today. But when there is a wonderfull tool such as plone, is not hard to fall in love.
You should have tried Plone than. Of course, it's not PHP or Perl, but if you know these Python is at a difference of just one day of learning.
It has everything you ask for:
tree structure: the content is stored in a file-system like tree, with folders and files you can navigate. Of course, this system is virtual, as all the files are stored in a database. It also has a navigation system that has a tree-like appearance.
easy templates: to modify the appearance you just have to edit one.css file. Of course, how different the result will be depends on your css hacking skills. Also, Plone has a sistem of "skin layers", that make it easy to add a new skin based on the default one. Every relevant template is customizable through this system: you just add the template (for example, how the document type is rendered, or how the news type is rendered) to the "custom" skin layer or to your own skin layer and it will override the defaults.
easily configurable: well... it depends on what you wish to do with it. Once you understand what happens it's easy to do everything. But there are a lot of howtos and a couple free plone books available that can teach you what you need to know. Also, the community is very helpful. This is a project entirely created by the community, it's not a comercial project suported by the community. Of course, if you need comercial support, there are quite a few businesses that can help you.
I have to mention something: Plone runs on zope, which is an application server that includes database system, web server, templating system, scripting, real database connectors, etc. To do realy advanced stuff in zope & plone you would need to learn python. But python is a fun and easy to learn language, so I wouldn't put this as a negative point:)
Plone is at this moment at version 2.x, so you'll get an already refined system.
And another thing, Plone was declared the best CMS for 2003 (I forgot at which event, but it was an important one), surpasing even comercial offerings.
Plone has a lot of videos and presentations from conferences, tutorials, etc.
You need video tutorials, e-learning is greatly improved by visual instructions. Also, for example, Plone's videos are not about using the CMS. They are mostly about extending the CMS.
(I could not see the typo3 videos, as the website doesn't work for me)

Also Corel Draw 10. Bad apps will kill the OS. Should this be allowed to happen?

What about those who use remote X? With the X server running on low-end PIIs? The answer is not that simple.
Yes, and that water can mean the basis for starting a terran colony on Mars. Water + sun = plants & oxigin = food. Simplified "equation".
elinks is possibly better
supports tabs and a visual layout closer to the original page. Plus, http autentification, making it superior to links.
The wife / girlfriend / fiance will usually be the cause. That is my case at least... I guess they have more common sense than us.
He has a slashdot id, ergo he already subscribed to this service. Not the premium service, of course.
Rules for what? For the word fuck? We're all adults here...
As for the content of my message... What I've said is part of the basic netetiquette... why would slashdot want to promote something else?

Now you lost your change. You should have made a business plan from it.
1. Buy products
2. Fire programmers
3. Open source it
4. Programmers build the best product on the market
5. ???
6. Profit!

I do that all the time when counting in my head. It's one of the tricks for speed multiplying. Congratulations to the teacher!
thanks! I was too lazy to copy & paste & strip spaces you, sir, know what we ./ers need
