RTFA, s'il vous plait. He runs Linux on the Mac. The blurb should have said something like "Linux switches to G5" to make it more clear, but you should at least RTFA.
They probably have a very simple native program that doesn't require.net, which then downloads it if not available. Once it is available, it runs the real program.
Your rant makes sense until one realizes the deliciously subtle yet hilarious flaw in your reason ing, the fact that if you search for "Word" on Google you get a link to Microsoft Word. So you were trying to be sarcastic when you said it was "Great for searching" when in reality it actually is.
This is offtopic, but I have an idea for your Utopios project.
Make a graphical frontend to the package manager that shows a little picture or logo of every app. In the ebuild (or whatever) you would have a PICTURE_URL=whatever variable. This, I think, would make it much easier for less experienced people to use Gentoo, because they are much more comfortable with a GUI.
My point is that you are using a definition of "lactose intolerant" that the rest of us aren't. I know for a fact that 75% of the world doesn't get badly sick from drinking milk.
No excuse? I suppose you're berating yourself then, because if you are a programmer you are part of the community that could create this!. Stop yelling about no-one doing things for you and get out there and do what you want done!

Then they can use k3b.
ROFL! This comment made my day and it is perfectly true.
I wouldn't be surprised if Nero just uses those as a backend, so basically that's what they're doing. All they had to do was make the GUI.
cdrecord and mkisofs work for me.
RMS is the main source of all this "Software should be free!!111!1!!oneone" BS.
It didn't originally say that. The editors added it because people replying thought he was running OS X.

Not to mention your Slashdot subscribership
WTF kind of RMS nonsense is this. "Roads are free, therefore cars should be free."
That's what Opera is for. Mini devices. Fork over the $30 or however much it costs, it's worth it if you use your device to surf the web.

OK. I am eagerly awaiting the improvements you say you are making to portage. Good luck!
I hope and pray you are being sarcastic.
Mandrake has no use flags.
End of discussion.
Whether you like src or bin better, you cannot argue that there is a better package manager than Portage.

Actually .NET is pretty sweet. It's a rare gem of Microsoft success.
Exactly, that's my point. These guys are trying to make a whole new distro, they will have a chance to change the ebuild spec however they want.
Yes, but Porthole doesn't come with the OS now, does it? And it doesn't include a little picture of each ebuild.

Only when Donald Knuth takes over the Linux kernel...

But when most people say "lactose intolerant" they are referring to the people who actually get sick if they ingest lactose.
what are you talking about? Care to explain?
