    I have to admit I used to get laid more often when using Windows .. how come? :(
    Mac users get laid too - but probably by the same sex.

    Windows = promiscuous
    Mac = camp
    Linux = sexless.

    dont compare languages - geez.
    each have their strengths and weaknesses.

    Perl was not written with database-driven dynamic sites in mind.
    PHP was.

    your generalization are pretty silly -

  8. Hey I bought this book yesterday on Learning PHP 5 · · Score: 1

    Before the article appeared here :)

    Yeah nice book - never thought I could learn PHP in almost 24 hours. It feels like a language much better suited for dynamic html.

    Also I am getting to the conclusing PHP is much better than ASP Classical. Well and those are definitely better than that slow-crawling non-compliant over-hyped ASP.NET.

    ASP.NET promised reducing of complexity but ends up adding more than its fine share. Try write an application that is accessible in ASP.NET *and* XHTML compliant - you can't.

    The only thing I like about ASP.NET is threading (click a form, thread -> send an email = pretty fast) - Can ANYONE let me know if Threading is possible in PHP 5?

  11. Re:Yoper and Ubuntu -- Someone Please Compare? on Ubuntu For PPC, And As A Live CD · · Score: 1

    Ubuntu as far as I know is a Gnome 2.8 Centric Debian based distro.

    I don't believe Ubuntu is about speed - but perhaps stability?

    Yoper however is fine-tuned for speed and while being KDE-centric (with the lastest version) it does give you other WMs including Gnome.

    If you are happy with Yoper - I really can't see a reason for a change. You may miss your speed factor and have to reinstall Yoper back. But I am saying that with no working knowledge of Ubuntu - so maybe you could try their live-CDs.

  14. Re:WHY did you destroy EVOLUTION ?? on Evolution 2.0 Released, Screenshots · · Score: 1

    Yeah I suppose they can't please anyone.

    Those changes and those in Gnome did it for me.
    I loved Gnome and Evolution-1.4
    The weather app was cool because you could have 3 cities,
    then a fix list of say some 10 news feed.
    That was the Summary Page.
    Maybe its my system I find Evo-1.5 more unstable than 1.4
    (crashes every now and again - whereas before it was extremely rare)
    The HTML of 1.4 I never checked it - hope they didnt come ugly - that would be pretty embarrasing.


    Someone said Sylphweed-Claws is a good app -
    going to check that out.

    and as for "why duplicate features?"
    ah right - so the developers have to think what is best for me??

    man those applets are crap anyway.

    I want newsfeed and weather back not some floating applets - at least a plugin then!

    For someone that installed Gnome via Garnome I believe I do have a clue what I am talking about ;)

    14 days is sufficient testing.

    Maybe you wanna tell those developers that left Gnome the same.

    Why did you remove the NEWS FEED?
    Why did you remove the World Weather?
    Why do i get Back-End Busy messages now?
    Why did you change the look?

    Evolution-1.4 was one of the most impressive apps, I really like it and now its SHIT!

    Developers destroyed Evolution, much like they destroyed Gnome with that most annoying SPATIAL crap.

    If its brilliant DONT FIX IT!

    dont be naive or stupid
    I remember the time when Mr Billy was the only mega-corp billionaire that never donated a thing to charity.
    I kept repeating that again and again in forums. Then maybe their marketting team listened. And then started first donating Winblows "software" to school (great marketting).
    MS software is ludicrously expensive to purchase in the 3rd world. No wonder they are all going linux.
    And donating money to America's AIDS research. Wow how generous. AIDS treatment drugs are too ridiculously expensive to the 3rd world - despite being cheap to produce. Let's put a price on death shall we? So no wonder countries like Brazil are producing cheaper clones (instead of $99 per pill you have $0.99!).
    So don't be such down right thick, there are people who are rich and succesfull philantropist - who don't get villified as such.
    If someone is shady - the truth will show. Come on we live in the 21sth century. All false heroes will be exposed.

    For me naivity of people the worse evil of all. It made Hitler powerful.
