    Sorry, meant Cocoa.

  4. Re:Old news? on Skype For Mac OS X and Linux · · Score: 1

    If Qt is linked in statically I would imagine that Qt uses Cocoa, and as a result uses the Qt libraries.

    Because there is no money in it for them.

    You mean now I can't send paedophiles to distant places and waste hours of their time anymore?

  7. Re:Inevitable comment, but valid point.. on 18 Live Linux CDs -- In A Row · · Score: 2, Insightful

    So what are you saying? We should forcefully shut down any developers who make their own distro?

    I don't care what Joe does, I want my computer to do what I want it to do. I don't care what MS does, as long as they don't stop me from doing what I want to.

    Just remaster Knoppix yourself, and put on whatever programs you want.

  12. Re:i want to know on Solaris 10 Released · · Score: 1

    AFAIK (I'm only in high school, and have 512k, so haven't any first hand experience with it) Solaris is a better kernel, and has better vendor support.

  13. Re:UNIX vs. LINUX? on Solaris 10 Released · · Score: 1

    Well if you don't know anything about it, put it on another machine or do it in VMWare, because you may not like it.

    And who pays for that money and equipment do you think?

    Well where does the school get the money for the newspaper from?

  16. Re:They set themselves up in a Catch-22 on Firefox Developer on Recruitment Policy · · Score: 1

    The text gets pushed into the left sidebar, or off to the right, outside of the screen.

  17. Re:Exhibit Bugs? on 2005 IGF Student Showcase Winners Announced · · Score: 1

    Must have been updated, ATM it says "don't exhibit bugs"

  18. Re:They set themselves up in a Catch-22 on Firefox Developer on Recruitment Policy · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Well, obviously you don't have to be on the team to work for the team. But who wants to work for someone that isn't going to treat them as part of the same team?

    Well they're not gonna give every single person out there commit access to the repository, are they? If you want to be able to directly change a section of the code, you need to prove your abilities. Which is fair enough.

    Try typing "Miserable Failure" in google and hitting I'm Feeling Lucky

    On Linux there is Evolution, and I hear a Windows port is coming up.

  21. Re:No more than five minutes? on Why Apple Makes a One-Button Mouse · · Score: 1

    There are times when I can deal with needing to use the right mouse-button (mostly minimalistic WMs/Desktop Environments, I mostly use Fluxbox and Enlightenment), because be doing it that way, I save a Fuck Of A Lot Of Memory(tm) over KDE.

  22. Re:The Lesser of Many Evils on Steam Users Steamed · · Score: 1

    I've only played the demo, and it's great, yeah...contrary to what most people think, walking around in the dark switching between shotgun and torch is rather fun.
