Because Google Docs sucks compared to a proper editor. Why do I want to be beholden to a closed sourced editor running on hardware outside of my control? If I wanted that I would be running a Microsoft product.
Any one else ever feel tempted to print up a bunch of QR code patches to direct people to hello.jpg and then slap them all over the place? Especially over the QR code on advertising and the like?
Actually you are better off with a Intel Atom or another similar processor.
Arm machines as of currently are a major PITA to run as you are limited by the software available for it and if you don't wish to be limited by that you have to muck around a nice bit with cross compiling etc. Way more hassle etc than it is worth.
The performance issues are not an X issue, but a driver issue.
The major issue when it comes to performance and X is the drivers, which are largely crap. Unfortunately there is very little information on the internals of most cards, which makes writing good drivers complex or damn near impossible. This also requires a nice bit of programming and math knowledge in various areas.
Changing graphics server technology won't fix this issue.
How they never take the ability to deal with threads into account.
This is one area where things becomes problematic for Intel. This is because of hyperthreading shaes some important resources, such as the SSE related stuff. There for if you are running lots of threads making use of features with these issues, then you will actually run into notably reduced performance as the threads compete for the same resources.
This can also be a increased problem with some optimization options with GCC as it will make heavier use of SSE/etc.
Given all the bitching over this, you think some one would of done something with this leak already. So far the people who are against this seem to have a upper hand.
I am a bummed by how no one has made any decent use of it yet. I think a reason for this is because no one has yet published a easily readable version of it.
To this end I've actually written the Perl module DBI::Wikileaks::AfWD.
I am curious as to what exactly was setup. It honestly sounds like they setup ntop, which is something I have some what mixed feelings about, but can be amazingly useful for tracking network health and etc.
I find it unusual you are in favor of this then as what is being suggest is that they don't charge you based on connection quality/speed, but on what content you are accessing.
There are multiple other ones, but to date they all have very ugly source and/or are badly implemented. I am looking forward to see if this one is a break from it./me does the Zimbra blows goats dance.
Wooho! I think one of the first intelligent things about Perl I have read so far for this thread.
I don't agree with you on the objects though. I personally love the way they work under Perl./me hates tabs being mistaken as a good substitute for easy to read brackets.
You are making the common ignorant assumption about Perl based some past idiot's bad code.
If your code is undocumented, uncommented, and hard to read it is obfuscated it means it is bad code. Saying this reflects on the interpreter/compiler is nothing but laziness as the real blame lies with the punk that wrote the mess.
Regardless of if you have tabs or brackets, code written in a way that is not maintanable is bad code.

This is what SSH is for. Unless the kernel has actually paniced, I've never seen a unrecoverable error in recent drivers for Intel or Nvidia.
Last I saw was with the S3 ViRGE, which post restart would have corruption issues unfixable except for a reboot.
Actually it is incredibly useful.
I've used it at work before for using a single keyboard/mouse between my unix and windows workstations.
Your replying to a troll. If you waste your time like that replying to every troll etc in such a manner, you will have much wasted time.

Bug fix releases are normal.
This release being reported news worthy is indication of a slow news day etc.
This is not really an X problem.
This is a Nvidia providing crappy drivers problem.
Also it means your system has also most likely been set to not restart the X server, if it did indeed crash.
What most likely is happening is it is stuck in a loop, which is is not exiting, or something along those lines.
Regardless, most likely you just need SSH in and restart X.
The good news is these days it very rarely takes the kernel down with it, at least in regards to FreeBSD.

People who get worked up about going bald have issues. Go bald and don't worry about it.
Frag the combo over and squirrel wearing goat fragers.
Aye. I second that.
I personally like it. It is a small cheap laptop with power.
I personally would go for it if it was not for the fact I currently have a good laptop I use for gaming.
Never tried integrate it with AD before as AD is very possibly the worst LDAP server in existence.
So?
Either can work for large organizations, but it does not make either less of a ugly hack.
I honestly don't give a rat's about outlook support. My interest is in the unix area, not windows.
Unless something has changed recently it's code base is complete crap.
That is true if by fine you mean it is a complete PITA to integrate with a existing system and is massively uncommented.
If it is better implemented than Zimbra, it would be nice, but that would not be hard to do though.
Looked at it once and found the entire thing to be a collection of undocumented code. On top of it, it is all implemented in a very ugly manner.
There are multiple other ones, but to date they all have very ugly source and/or are badly implemented. I am looking forward to see if this one is a break from it. /me does the Zimbra blows goats dance.
You make it sound like Perl is not a productive language. Use POD and be amazed.
