You don't say which GUI you're using, but under KDE, if you run kmenuedit, you can look up what command is being run from the menu, and do a "man" on that.
Wouldn't you say the time has come to ditch the question mark? Don't they think we can probably figure out that it's just a headline and not the editor's position? Do they need to put a question mark on the end to maintain editorial neutrality?
Yeah - he says twice that NNTP has been "abandoned", which I don't get: I'm on Usenet almost daily. Sure, there are plenty of encoding schemes (mime, uuencode, yEnc, etc.) but the protocol lives on, even if, as he says, gobs of (redundant) bandwidth and storage go into Usenet itself.
I think the real concern is spectacular PDF authoring a la Acrobat. And then there's the darndest thing - Microsoft applications seem to import other peoples formats real well, but they don't export worth a damn (if at all).
You get to be one of Jesus' disciples, and you follow him around, and listen to him preach, and then the Romans grab him and nail him to a cross and...
If they've been in the dark for so long, what have they been eating? You have to get energy into an ecosystem somehow.

It's really too bad this was posted AC, because it's right on the money, but it'll probably be modded "troll" instead of the "insightful" it deserves.
After 9:00 EDT, I'm going to Slashdot their phones.
Anybody else wanna do it too?
Oh teh horror! Won't somebody puhleeeese think of teh children?
Seriously, I _do_ understand; my deepest sympathies.
That's more true than you said. I've found through the years that accountants make lousy programmers:
"What's a corner case?"
"What's a fencepost error?"
"What's an infinite recursion?"

OMG! Red goo!!
Seriously, this could be like the (theoretical) self-replicating clays that supposedly were the precursers to DNA.

Oh. Never mind.
It's just one thing after another with Sony. I'm beginning to wonder if this is some kind of extended version of Punk'd.
Because there was no Intelligent Designer in the cave with them.

Goddam right I need some slack.
Something like "Meet The Press" or "The Oprah Winfrey Show" or "Everybody Loves Raymond" as a first-person-shooter?
