    ... and a new user is supposed to know what all of this even is, let alone how to install them? Then, once it's installed, they are supposed to realize that "session" actually means "environment" or more newbie-likely "theme" on the login screen?

    (the use of "session" for this is completely braindead IMO, I don't understand how your desktop manager has anything to do with the concept of a session)

    Because the userbase for Ubuntu is quite huge comparatively, and Ubuntu seems to like doing shit like this "just because" without any reasoning grounded in fact or reality.

    I was under the impression that 64-bit, if anything, reduces performance. Perhaps all that was x86-specific. I'll have to look over those links when I have time - thank you.

    Agreed. Not to mention the countless number of times I'd search for something, and not realize it was on scribd until my browser screeched to a halt like a fly caught in sap.

    Didn't take me long to blacklist their domain. I don't want anything to do with them.

    What is the point of a 64-bit phone? Do you really need more than 4gb of RAM allocated to a single process on a phone?

    If you can keep the GPS online until 60,000 and then turn it back on when you drop below, that's probably enough for the job. On the way up it establishes your ballistic arc, and on the way down you can correct for peterbances that occurred. Basic INS stuff could deal with the between.
