    I come from 2051, in a timeline where Linux didn't exist. You don't want to hear about the Microsoft vs Apple netwar.

    The people of Great Britian need new governance

    That would be a good thing for the people of Great Britian, but what about the people in the UK?

  21. Re:Best quality, Best reputation , Best services,l on What's Coming In KDE 4.4 · · Score: 1

    That, or Slashdot could add a new moderation choice: spam. Also make the spam count add up (i.e. don't prevent people from moderating someone spam just because he's already at -1, let the spam count add up).

    If a spam moderation counter is above a certain value, editors could look it up, decide if it's real spam or not, and disable the account/warn the user his account has been taken over/whatever.

  22. Re:Can we stop posting links to cio.com.au? on What's Coming In KDE 4.4 · · Score: 1

    I wasn't implying that Australia's bandwidth was the only source of the problem. I'm just saying that if most clicks come from Canada, U.S.A. and Europe (given the current time), then it's all non-local bandwidth that must go overseas through what I guess must be a limited pipe compared to what we have in America.

  25. Re:Hint for choosing default colors on What's Coming In KDE 4.4 · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The non-interactive elements need to blend in, so yes they have to look "boring" and grey is a neutral color. The widgets, on the other hand, should pop up a bit (not Fisher-Price, plastic toys Windows XP-style pop though), so they should have some color to it.

    I can't see the screenshots, the website is already slashdotted.
