If developers would spend even as little as 10% of the time spent on squeezing in that one last polygon per square unit, and other graphical nonsense, and take that time to maybe develop a few more decent games that aren't just sequels building on the hype of prior sucesses. Nevermind, that's a dumb idea. After all I have like -23423423 karma so what do I know?

Jobs was ushered out and came back once already. Who's to say that when this "troika" leaves, he won't just come back. If Cher's had 15421 farewell tours, why can't Jobs? And besides, they can always clone him. He can be like Real Holographic Simulated Evil Lincoln.
The point of slashdot is to troll and be an idiot to get responses like yours. Do you want a sticker for knowing current events? Now I'll give you a gold star if you tell me the President of England.
This guy has a point: All the critics hated Star Wars Ep 1, but still 234234324324 people went and saw it ( despite Jar-Jar! ). Or for a more game-oriented allusion, Daikatana, a supposedly critically-acclaimed game that nobody bought. I defy you to find one person who bought and enjoyed Daikatana.
This shared sources license really isn't much to be excited about. If it was truly open source, they wouldn't have any qualms about submitting to the OSI.
And the question of the century is:
How exactly was this number calculated? Raw download data from the Mozilla website would mean nothing. The only way that this number would mean anything would be if each distribution contributed their totals...
How many features could they possibly have missed? I mean all that really makes up a so-called personalized page, is your name and some local news and weather. The end.
I obviously haven't been paying attention...
heh I could have sworn that it was 200 projects and a few hundred bucks when I first read about it...
Oh well.
I take that back...Summer of Code sucks.
When you're funding 200 projects for only a few bucks apiece, you end up with a potential slew of product for a very minimal investment.
The same goes for summer internships -- you might end up with a brilliant idea, and it costs you next to nothing.
Linux will not be accepted by the masses until you can point and click your way through everything and be able to do Administration tasks from any old account. It won't be accepted until they get 50 cent a minute 900-number tech support that's corporately backed and own the computer for a year without ever knowing just what the hell CLI is.
Fortunately, GNU/Linux is not about any of that, and hopefully never will be; however, this means that it will never overtake the more proprietary operating systems like Windows. I
Slashdot Mirror
but when I see something inflatable, i assume it's getting rammed.

Didn't stop them from preserving Leonard Nimoy's head...or was that just Futurama.

I was really hoping he'd reply and tell me that England has a PM not a President

Come on guys, Kim Jung Il is a nice guy. He wouldn't lie to us like that!
Pretty sure my gmail has had webclips since at least July ( maybe earlier ), so I don't see what the big deal is...

Just give them the newest That's So Raven game, and they'll be fine.

Well put. And you did it without being flagged a troll ;)
That's what I meant to say...just a bit less eloquently.
I subscribe to the too-many-licenses yields too-many-forks crowd, and I just potentially see a bunch of XFree/Xorg situations on the horizon.
