  2. Re:A suggestion for KDE on Summer of Code Student Applications Now Open · · Score: 1

    the clear sharp crisp look of that font is because it isn't anti-aliased at all, i don't know what font it is, but making them look "crisp" like that is easy, just disable anti-aliasing.

  4. Re:Good luck with that on Fluendo To Sell Proprietary Codecs For Linux · · Score: 1

    as far as interfaces go, i've seen that kmplayer (a kde frontend to mplayer) and totem seem to be fairly decent (though i haven't touched it in a while, i used it back when gstreamer was fairly new and didn't support all that much). now that gstreamer has matured alot more i'm not too suprised about this, and hope that things like this happen much more.

    go watch, BTF3 again, Mr Fusion only powered the time circuits he never got around to converting the car to electric, it still needed gasoline to run.

    simple, it has a smaller supply, once the demand goes up it'll most likely level off around the same level as the equivalent fossil fuels.

    the passenger's history of not showing up for flights

    Why do they want to know that?</blockquote>

    i'd guess so that if you don't always show up they can TRY to overbook the flight and get away with it, or give your seat away to standby passengers before boarding has started just to piss you off.

  15. Re:I would be a lot more impressed on The Multi-Pointer X server · · Score: 1

    actually i've seen alot of applications (this might be due to gtk handling input) support my 6th and 7th buttons, works rather well, in firefox they are back and forward, and they do work in the gimp as part of the scroll bars allowing me to scroll vertically AND horizontally, that tends to work in just about every gtk app i've tried

    4x4 refers to 4 steering wheels and 4 powered wheels, not 4 wheels alone, 2x2 = two steering wheels, two powered wheels (not neccesarrily the same) 4x2 indicates four wheel steering, 2x4 would be two wheel steering with 4 powered wheels

  20. Re:yeah, great idea! on Pearl Jam Releases Video Under Creative Commons · · Score: 2, Informative

    i fail to see what changes and conditions they added to the license they directly link to the creative commons copy of the license, format is debatable but what at all is wrong with google video where you can download the file also? you know its right there on the right of the video in the flash player.
