Go back to using the 1 of 5 free e-mail addresses that came with the ISP you have to have anyway, and use "Outlook" or "Mail.app" or "Evolution" or whatever easy-to-use program your OS comes with. Pshaw.
It's probably shit and I wouldn't run it (well, as a general rule I don't run windows at all), but it's available. It's only available as trial version, but it's for a year, and if you're running windows the chances are favorable you're gonna wipe your system and reinstall in about a year anyway.:/
(Actually, it wouldn't suprise me if only a small portion of the system was actual 64bit (like the kernel). Utilities like notepad are probably still 32bit.)
It depends on when the actual filter step occurs. For example, SA (SpamAssassin) by default only marks the message. The actual deletion (by the second filter) -could- occur after SA gets through it. Basic example: SA. Other filter. Other filter Act or SA Act in either order.
The funny part is if the second filter includes headers as part of its bayesian filtering, the second filter could become biased based on spamassassin's results:P
There was more than one thing the asker was asking in that "question".
If you read the first part, you see "When is it appropriate for a leader to change their opinion?" I think Nader (and Kerry up to a certain point) managed to answer that question pretty well.
The last part "Tell us about a time when you had an honest change of opinion on a topic of national importance." nobody really answered at all (as you pointed out)
If you had read the article, you would probably know that it was supposed to be their final game before they would have gone bankrupt. But, FF did well enough that they didn't go bankrupt, so of course they had to expand on their new found success.
The open issues page shows the SCHED_ULE as "needs testing" for the 5.3 release -- the last release still used the old 4BSD scheduler. Have the issues with preemption been ironed out?
Work has been done to make it more stable, but SCHED_ULE (especially with preemption) still isn't stable enough, so SCHED_4BSD will be default in 5.3
Can OpenGL ever match DX in popularity among developers?
Yes. id (quake, doom, etc) and I believe unreal both use it. Both are competitors, and as small of importance as portability to other operating systems such as Linux may seem to be, it is still somewhat important to them (although, I -still- haven't heard anything new about doom3 on linux)
Interest into porting to Linux is slowly becoming more popular between game makers, mostly because if you do it right for the windows port in the first place, it isn't as difficult as it might seem to port to Linux, and it helps open up a small new (starved?) market.
Yes, windows includes partial compatibility with one catch: most of the stuff they -do- support is prefixed with an underscore. You can work around that by definingmacros as wrappers in your ifdef'ed windows specific header (kinda like glib does). Most of this is in the base windows system.
Also, (which you also mentioned, but didn't know the name) microsoft provides Microsoft Services for UNIX (more recently known as Interix), which provides..something for UNIX compatibility (userland? maybe non-underscored naming? I know that the netbsd people have ported pkgsrc to it at least)
Um, am I missing the point, or does the last author completely forget KDE and others ? You already have the freedom, silly.
Maybe people want -more- freedom?
They may have liked where gnome was, and want to bring it back to that point (but as a project, because you have to move forward.)
I liked the way gnome 1.x worked better, even if it was more ugly over all. Although, I don't use gnome anyway, instead I use fluxbox, so whee, I got my freedom.:)
One factor that led me to switch back to Gentoo was the choppyness while working on the desktop environments. At that time I was using 5.1. So say if I was playing the audio/browsing/compiling etc, the computer would freeze for a moment.
I haven't really had any choppyness except for three things:
Sound: sometimes sound will get choppy on heavy (disk) load. Later, I found out that all those different sound utils (xmms, mpg123, etc) were using esound, so I disabled it, and suddenly, no more choppyness.
Gnome fade out. It's choppy, and I dunno why. People sometimes blame sched_ule, but I'm still running sched_4bsd, and it still does it.
Sometimes while playing doom (well, prboom), it waan't very smooth. (quake3 is fine though)
As I understand it, the video game industry once lost consumer confidence because of low quality games. If the PS3 market is flooded with a lot of games, which includes a lot of low quality ones, then the PS3 could get hurt badly.
I kinda don't want to see the PS3 fail, since I've always liked the playstation a little better than the rest. I wouldn't want it to fall to something like that.
That way the market can be flooded with low quality games that suck, because anyone can do it.
Or, it becomes cheaper, but you still have to go through Sony to license your game to publish it on the PS3. That would cut out poor games that could hurt the PS3's image (and because of open standards, like OpenGL (well, it has a published API at least), even if you don't get it on PS3, you can still release it on other platforms, like the PC).

Of course, not as if Windows even has a 64-bit OS yet which is what matters for a lot of people (not me tho).

That may take a little too long. Is there something pre-built we can use?

Ah.... A monument to ugliness, much like the XP color themes. I get it!
Ohhh! So that's where the Blue Screen of Death went!
Hmm. Well, I did figure out how I wanted to implement a portion of my code when I was taking a crap recently.

Weird. I've been seeing cards claiming to be OpenGL 2.0 compatible for a while now.
With X.org: Xorg -configure

At least, I think it is a him.

Does tux racer run on BSD?
..Actually, it does. (Well, I know for FreeBSD at least)
Me, I like the golf theme for it.

5-STABLE was scheduled for 5.2 originally, but they pushed it back. (this was like a year ago when they thought 5.2).
In fact, originally 5.3 was set for Late May-ish, early June, but 4.10 got in the way, 5.2.1 was still pretty recent, and 5.x still needed work.
One factor that led me to switch back to Gentoo was the choppyness while working on the desktop environments. At that time I was using 5.1. So say if I was playing the audio/browsing/compiling etc, the computer would freeze for a moment.
