You could use Googles GWT to write your GUI, and simply display a webkit window in the application, making it server-client friendly and usable via browser if needed.
Last I checked the US State Department recognized something like 194 countries. So they appear to have coverage of 103% of the countries in the world!
Rounding error. This is what happens when you let arts majors use computers.
I would believe it would be a by product of how countries are listed. Many Country selection lists separate territories and other such locales from the country that owns them. So, if anything the use of only the word "country" would be wrong, not the number.

Quite likely true, however you really need to be careful when responding to a joke with a serious comment lest the *WHOOSH* pirates take you hostage and hold you for ransom.
Of course there are people here. This is where all the people from the coasts go when they realize that the job market where they are sucks, the people are all jerks, and it costs too much to live there.
Sounds logical, up until you consider the fact that there are provinces of Canada with higher populations than Oklahoma.
So far every quasi-mainstream article about "the future of Ubuntu" has been far off base and simply leads to people who know nothing debating with people who know little. I'll wait for Ubuntu/Canonical to announce things thanks.
I think someone who uses the letter "k" instead of the letter "c" in their nickname to look kool deserves to have their komputer konfiscated. I'm looking at you kaptink.
If you could manage to convince the KDE crowd that I'd appreciate it. If I see one more sophomoric 1980s video game knock-off written as a student exercise in the package repo I swear I'll go postal.
1. Attack Amazon's infrastructure from their home computer
2. Post about it on twitter
3. Make videos of the attack and blog
4. Try to recruit sidekicks
5. Brag about it on IRC and the interwebs.

If you had substituted the name Sarah Palin for George W. Bush in the above, it would have been just as valid an observation, yet he was elected President. While I have no love for Palin, I think the idea that what she says will affect her electibility, like you said, shows a lack of understanding of the populous that would be electing her.
I'm no fan of Bush, but Palin makes him look like Einstein.
Somebody let me know if it's just my young age or if they really are getting worse.
Well I'd say its worse now than it has been in quite some time, but only by a trivially small percentage. However your reaction is probably simply your youthful idealism being jarred into reality. Politics has never been sane. There's probably a parallel in ancient Roman or Greek politics for any example you can come up with from the U.S.
What she and her supporters have not figured out is that they get so much attention because it's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. It's entertainment not politics.
Well, to her credit, she has a lot of followers.
So do Paris Hilton and Lindsey Lohan. Come to think of it Hilton might actually do a better job.
She is unelectable, why the hell does the media pay so much attention to her? She has to be the most hated political figure in the US for the left/left leaning middle. The dumbest thing the republicans could possibly do is run her in 2012.
What she and her supporters have not figured out is that they get so much attention because it's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. It's entertainment not politics.
But playing music to fruit? That doesn't make sense to me in anyway. Ripening is a well understood chemical process. One that I don't believe the fruit itself has any control over once it has been plucked from the tree. This is just a publicity stunt/marketing gimmick that worked well enough to land it a news article. Beyond that, it's just a waste of time and energy.
True, but as a consumer I'd buy from them just because they are cool to even try it.
So there are only around 1100 people in the whole United States using Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu Lucid running on a 64 bit system? Really? Maybe, just seems hard to believe.
With all those variables I'm surprised there are that many: [personal experience in parenthesis]
Firefox market penetration is dropping. [After years as a Firefox user I've actually moved to chrome on all my machines]
There are MANY flavors of Linux and you're using an out of date version of Ubuntu. [I moved to 10.10 months ago...]
Not everybody has migrated to 64 bit machines. [Well yes I have, but if I say 64 bit to anyone outside of work they look at me funny]

Well, you can always launch a preemptive strike:

Great, so you can't see China. I think this is the networking endpoint equivalent of sticking your head in the sand.
It's "Doctor Who", not "Dr. Who".
Get. A. Life.
I would argue that spending your time finding posts to correct means that you have less of a life than I.
I do hope you were trying to be ironic.

This way lies madness! Repent!
That’s great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane -
Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn -
world serves its own needs, don’t misserve your own needs. Feed it up a knock,
speed, grunt no, strength no. Ladder structure clatter with fear of height,
down height. Wire in a fire, represent the seven games in a government for
hire and a combat site. Left her, wasn’t coming in a hurry with the furies
breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered
crop. Look at that low plane! Fine then. Uh oh, overflow, population,
common group, but it’ll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves it's
own needs, listen to your heart bleed. Tell me with the rapture and the
reverent in the right - right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright
light, feeling pretty psyched.
It’s the end of the world as we know it.

With such gems in TFA as
By focusing on Unity (on Wayland or X) for Ubuntu, Canonical has essentially forked its own Linux distribution.
you arent missing much (what does that even mean???? They cant "fork" their own distro...).
Perhaps the author typed "borked" and the editor "corrected" it.
That's different. In that case, it's turtles all the way down.
Nonsense, yesterday we determined that it's lawyers all the way down.

I would vote for Koko, she likes kittens, who is going to object to that platform?
I want a t-shirt or poster!
10.04 is LTS, which - by definition - means his version is not "out of date."
That depends ENTIRELY on your point of view. I would argue it was out of date but supported. Much like Vista.

You make that sound like a bad thing. Cheney and Haliburton would not agree.

The Normans (as in Normandy France) conquered and ruled England for quite a while.
It has been joked that the English language was invented by Norman soldiers to seduce Saxon barmaids.
Very stupid call on the part of whoever made it, but how does it merit a headline?
