that might seem like a good idea, but i rarely log in to search for something (that is, i almost never log in). but i quite often encounter obsolete pages being in the first spots with actual search targets pushed even to second and further pages - in these i cases i really would like to provide information on which page has the actual information - but this would do little for me as next time i would now what to look for. i'd like to give a quick feedback to help other users, but i also understand that such a system would be abused to hell. how to solve it ? i don't know. maybe some levels of trusted reporters or something...
to continue with pointing fingers, people like you are the reason why usa is disliked by pretty much all over the world:)
as for two party thing, we had single correct party here for a lot of years. somehow that didn't work quite well. not that your two parties differ anyway.
quick hint - 4gb or more swap is quite insane. well, maybe it is sensible on 10-raided solid state drives. just imagine that you are anticipating swapping out 4gb of running software - and then trying to get it back into ram...
is trivia heading for removal completely ? maybe it can be preserved in separate pages, if it is so undesirable in main articles ? i must admit, i like it, and it has provided me a lot of interesting facts i would have missed otherwise.
or maybe the idea is to eliminate such a section, but correctly distribute that information in other, applicable sections ?
are you serious ? what if it indeed worked with all the cards at the time they wrote it, but manufacturer later changed internals - and only some new cards do not work (that they don't even know about) ? accusing somebody should be done only if you are sure you are right - did you inform them that a card you have doe not work, and they refused to change the documentation ?
actually, that could be no lie at all. sometimes (too often) manufacturers change the underlying chip of the device without changing single character in the model name.
at least one wifi manufacturer was doing that, and they even refused to tell me what particular chip would an exact revision of a specific model have...
obviously, driver would work with chips it knows about. there are some cases when a single driver will happily work with a chip it didn't know anything about before, but those are exceptions (and might require manual pci id adding and module recompilation to work nicely).
when the phone came out, there were a lot of materials about this - a quick search reveals only comments right now, but searching more would turn up much more.
from a comment : http://lwn.net/Articles/248819/ "Too bad that quite a few components in the Greenphone SDK are proprietary. That makes it almost useless as a developer's toy."
if i remember correctly, they opensourced it when openmoko started or something - but the community desire to hack on it was seriously reduced by keeping sdk closed. imho:)
well, if i remember correctly, they charged for the sdk. which probably killed a lot of enthusiasm from the oss crows. now, what i really hope for - that openmoko and the associated devices will be both very geek friendly and very user friendly, thus making it an ideal device to get for me and to recommend for everybody else.
you should have added packman and guru (though only packman will be needed soon).
also, if you want newer version of some package, chances are, buildservice will have one for your version at http://software.opensuse.org/search.
i hardly ever encounter something that is missing from suse packages - as opposed to slackware where installing some things can be highly intimidating because they pull another 10 packages in that all have to be compiled from source:)
what about using raid10 to improve both ? let's say, 6x32GB ssd, with three raid1 used in one raid0. both read and write speeds should improve quite noticeably, total space would be ~90GB.
i don't know how large these things are, how much power 6 of those would consume and how much heat would they produce, so any of these could kill the solution. if all three stay at the normal hdd range (single hdd:) ), that would be a killer laptop. well, maybe a killer because of the price, but we all hope the prices will drop...
If you really want to obscure something in a non-reversible way, remove the data from the image (overwrite it with a black box or something).
if you are from a government, remove the data from an image with the alpha channel and don't uncheck "save color values from transparent pixels" (in gimp).
'education' could simply be using the brain harder. i remember reading about bilinguality being a factor in reducing a chance of dementia (though can't find a link right now).
right. so why do so many people try to hack the device desperately ? if the vendor does not want your money, your contributions - go to another.
like, already mentioned fic neo with openmoko/qtopia.
instead, painful attempts to hack or use the device that the manufacturer has quite clearly noted it does not want to be hacked (or even used, in some cases:) )

given that both magnatune and last.fm are integrated in amarok, i can vote for those two :)

would it be possible to change the surface so that it becomes visibly less reflecting ? :)
that probably could impact earth more than moon mass changes
nah, riaa will get them

miguel could be, like, abducted brother of... dvorak. :)
or the other way around. i suggest a tag 'miguel', similar to 'dvorak'

actually, everybody can see what you are playing on last.fm website anyway, without needing to subpoena or whatever :)
ok, not a complete history, but bunch of recently played tracks and historical stats - so that's pretty much anyway.
hmm. what exactly are you missing ?

have you seen this page ? http://en.opensuse.org/Package_Repositories

yes, but bioses have bugs. and most bioses (and firmwareas) are proprietary. and vendors rarely care enough to fix most of the bugs...
just check out kernel and other bugzillas - there are quite a lot of bios/firmware workarounds in there.
if you are from a government, remove the data from an image with the alpha channel and don't uncheck "save color values from transparent pixels" (in gimp).
what about drivers, pdf readers, disk burning software...
the point isn't getting system to boot, but to get it in a usable state.
'education' could simply be using the brain harder.
;)
i remember reading about bilinguality being a factor in reducing a chance of dementia (though can't find a link right now).
then there's also the possibility of games improving brain state - http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/02/12/0733237
and, well, there's also the thing that moderate alcohol usage could help in dementia prevention
http://www.time.com/time/health/article/0,8599,1623739,00.html
so there are some things one can do. let's drink to that !

i doubt specs would include 3rd party code.
patents seem to be a better excuse this time.
mozilla foundation is "service unavailable" ? ;>
