POP3 sucks compared to IMAP though. Myself I'm happy with my ISP mail, pop and imap access, unlimited mailboxes, unlimited storage space, and a no-nonsense webmail interface if I need it. (Shameless sponge: if anyone else in the UK likes the sound of that, take a look at http://www.plus.net/, just put sdonag as your referrer if you decide to go with them. Thanks.)
Really? I've very very glad to hear that. Now tell me they've stopped the stupid head jokes and taken out Java or whatever his name is, and I'm actually optimistic about this film.
Oh yeah. Possibly less experienced people, but Java has been the "cool language" for several years now, and open source has been a lot bigger in those years than in the ones preceding them.
Erm, all of them, and I *am* a teenager. The teenagers I know actually sound pissed off when they are, go "awesome" or similar in a voice very different from normal a few times a day, laugh far more than he does, and would certainly make a better job of "I love you" than Christiensen does. He's supposed to be declaring his undying love for her and yet he talks more robotically than C-3PO. Sure, moodiness is important, but talking in the same flat voice all the time is not moodiness, it's just inability to talk properly. You could argue it's the jedi training, but if so why do all the other jedi and all the kids in training have emotion in their voices?
It was down as "library issue" last time I looked and I couldn't find anything about how to fix in the library. But it's now merely "broken" so I'll take another look when I've got the video playback I'm working on working.
At least one applet I've used wants to cache all its pixmaps etc. to speed up repeat use. This is a good idea, but means I go through several hundreds of "/tmp/konqueror-java-random hes sting/tile_001.png" etc. Maybe access on a per-folder basis would work.
I don't think there's any way to make it impossible. Unless the keyboard combination sent a direct signal in hardware like the apple ][ reset, anything the login screen can do some other userspace program can do just like it, no?
Not really. Given that the users see a box that looks pretty much the same when they log into their bank, log out of their bank, or fill in any kind of web form including the one I'm writing in now, it's no surprise they automatically click yes on it.

True, and I find wmv playing in xine actually works better than real video in realplayer. But official availability is what sites are going to go by.

People prefer to set up one streaming system for both audio and video - less work, less things to go wrong. The only open format which supports video is Ogg with Theora and it's not really ready for production yet, plus I think they've ignored a lot of patents.
It was designed explicitly to be centralised, relying on a central server for each file that works basically just like http. The designer was very careful to make sure there was no way it could ever be very good for piracy.
as long as that's reflected in the pricing. Is it xandros where you can buy an FTP download iso for $30 or a bittorrent one for $15? That's the way it should be.
Bundling it into the same file does look novel considering OOo takes the clunky step of putting things together in a zip file to make the document a single file.
It's technically a "deterrent patent" rather than a purely offensive one. But the idea behind many big companies' patenting strategy is to get enough that you can't win a "patent war" against them. They only assert them against people who start asserting other patents against them, at which point they cross-license.
Yes you can, the spaceships work. The thing that was soulless was the character of Anakin Skywalker. Learn to express emotion, or somebody dub him, please!
Everyone knows it takes shockingly long to compile C++ with gcc, but before gcc there wasn't even a real C++ compiler at all. So we put up with it. But just look at any KDE thread to see that everyone knows gcc's C++ performance sucks.

As a female with a fairly high profile among the open source community, do you get a lot of unwanted attention from losers like me?

Yep. Try it these days and I expect it would be bypassed in minutes.

Yes, but that applies for any browser.

Of course. After all, the reproduction costs are the same. Actually making the DVDs they sell costs pennies.

Why not? It's worked for the US government.

And the 3rd prize is clearly better than the second. Especially since I can't see what it is that belonged to the G5 that we'll be getting.
Maybe it's its RISCness that has been enhanced, perhaps to the point of being OISC?
Yeah, but java sucks and is slow, so why would you want to be able to develop for it? :)

I'd suggest KDevelop, it's really nice looking and has tons of integrated tools.
