I would agree that pedophiles as scout leaders is a bad bad bad idea... but i still do not see the problem with gay(yes i know this usually has a bad conotation, but trust me i use it very politly) men as scout leaders. Would you then also argue against gay women as scout leaders, boy or girl scouts, and how about the oppisite gender as a leader if they are straight?
I do NOT want to install QT on my system just to get an office suite, it takes 2+ hours to compile, and that would be the only app that needs it. why can't it just have the ability to use GTK2 or QT(whatever version is current)? Also running QT apps on GTK2 look really out of place, theyy often do not theme correctly, granted the last one i ran was an older version of skype(staticly linked QT) on gnome 2.10 or so.. What really needs to happen is there needs to be an abstraction layer between app and QT/GTK so that i can just write an app with the same calls and let that layer handle talking to GTK/QT for me.
have you used the SyncToy powertoy from microsoft? http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/power toys/xppowertoys.mspx it was very much like a gui for rsync, slower and i don't know if it could be hooked in so that it always ran or anything like that. but it did work nicly for moving 1/2G of pictures from a SMB share on my desktop to my lappy.
I'll agree with the satement that most people dislike UI changes, i've seen it every time Autodesk releases a new version of AutoCAD, even i hate when they do mainly because it makes me slower untill i learn the new layout.
umm i moved an install from a P2(headless) to a sempron 2600+ and all i had to do was enable the drivers i needed and move the disks, this move also have a LVM with it.
i owuld be much mor inclined to use Opera(tm) if i did not require me to use QT. otherwise i'm sure it looks as bad as most QT apps i've seen. anyways just my little rant. feel free to ignore me.
i would use g-mail more if i wasn't tied to a desktop app to use it... yes i kno wthey have a pop server but IMAP just seems to work better in my experance.
ahh yes but here is the problem the USA is not a democracy, it's a constitutional republic, so thus themayor is not honor boud to the will of th people but to the electoral college the votted him in. granted they are susposted to follow the votes of the people... but that doesn't always happen
I would have no problems serving my country on my country's soil, DO NOT ship me off stateside, for any reason other than there is a battalion of missile launchers poised on a beach somewhere, and by all means DO NOT make me the one responsible for forcing a "democracy"(aka Constitutional republic) on anyone anywhere anytime. I have friends that have served a deployment to Ar Ramadi, Iraq, and Tongduchon Korea. So yes i have heard first hand accounts. And yes i acknowledge the danger and fully support the troops in other countries, i hope every single one makes it home unharmed, but i do not support how the Republicans(the bush's in particular) have used the armed forces in the past. I also am very sorry for you personal loss. PS i'm only 19 so i could only vote in this most recent election, for the record it was democratic(wish it was socialist). I'm sorry but the U.S.A is not the worlds police.
Ahh but last i checked even with the adblock extention i still download the ads... so as far the sites concerned i loaded them, in my case i would almost never click on it anyway, i have clicked on a few here on/. for thinkgeek and the like.. but by and large i almost never click on them, so explain to me how me still getting the ad, but not seeing it is any different than what currently happens?
last time i saw prices for comcast around me it would have been closer to $50 a month. I cannot get dsl as well, so i have 28.8 dialup for 20 a month including line charges for the second line or cable...
i bet that UltraSparc II, has a hell of a lot mor harddisk bandwidth/more ram for a ram disk to serve from... and a advanced chaching system to keep the heavly used content in ram for faster access. because i know my dual 300mhz P2 would have been down just as fast
altho the problem i see happening is that smp will be embraced too much and that newer apps will not run on a non smp box..... for those of use that like to push hardwear, or are college students with almost no cash, this could be a huge problem. anyways even if apps don't take advantage of smp it will still be nice to beable to load the box down that much more

just to let you know, most semprons are just renamed athlon-xp's(the socket A ones) or are as you sugest, a under cached athlon64's. FYI
give me a frogpad and a mouse with some programable buttons on it. and let me loose.
