There's a double entendre here, by the way: Lesbians Until Graduation is a well-known acronym at certain artsy high schools where the cock-ratio favors Y-chromosometes.
As far as user groups are concerned, however, their relevance is directly proportional to Linux' esotericism: as it becomes mainstream, every office and class will become a spontaneous LUG.
Something that pertains to me as dearly as my work will always be mediated by human—preferably personal—judgement: that's freedom and responsibility. (I drive stick for the same reason.)
In other words, Clippy® is the teleology of computer-mediated workflow.
Big-shop software, as a matter of fact, is always what made A New Hope somewhat plausible for me: the too-many-cooks oversight of a two-meter exhaust vent analogizes well with desktop infelicities.
I'd like to nominate this phenomenon the "Death Star Syndrome," or DSS.
What would government possibly have to fear from Darwinism?
Namely that a critical populace is a less pliable one; if you've mastered Darwin's chain of concepts, you're not a credulous citizen likely to fall for, say, the latest WMD agitation.
The Soviet Union found itself similarly at odds with Darwinism; its alternative, however, was not intelligent design, but Lamarckianism: the idea being that people could will themselves into the Soviet ideal contra naturam.
There are implications, I believe, for our present American situation: parasitic governments, namely, have something to fear from Darwin; what exactly, remains to be seen.
The ability to typeset sublime mathematics and papers based not on WYSIWYG, but form and content; both of which may be possible under MiKTeX, but it seemed most natural to migrate, if not to whose nativity, then to the least hostile environment for work.
A great analog of the expansionist principle is freeways: natural law dictates that usage, unhindered by external constraints, will rise to meet capacity.
Whereas C's ghost is parsimony and piety, décadence haunts the house of Java.
To that end, I've become an early adopter of the Artistic License 2.0, Perl 6's upcoming license. From the preamble:
This copyright license states the terms under which a given free software Package may be copied, modified and/or redistributed, while the Originator(s) maintain some artistic control over the future development of that Package (at least as much artistic control as can be given under copyright law while still making the Package open source and free software).
There's that classic line from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night:
[B]ut be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em.
Now, if you mean to say that Gates' fantastic genes propelled him forward, I'm with you; if, on the other hand, you're merely interested in class-based agitation, I'd urge you to rethink your position.
Slashdot Mirror
As the plasma vs. LCD vs. DLP controversy shows, however, people won't buy until the industry is coherent.
As far as user groups are concerned, however, their relevance is directly proportional to Linux' esotericism: as it becomes mainstream, every office and class will become a spontaneous LUG.
Playing around with it, I find it cumbersome compared to its Google analog; the drag behaviour, for instance, goes into a bizarre sticky mode.
I can report that the exploit doesn't work on FC4, with the latest 1.5 built from source.
In other words, Clippy® is the teleology of computer-mediated workflow.
Question is: does the rate of dispensation equal or exceed wiping's rate?
The user could be presented with a revision tree, click on a node to retrieve that state, and branch therefrom.
Personally, however, I think save "ain't broke."
- Transitory unsalvageable states (e.g., you just selected all and cut)
- Prohibitively large data sets (e.g., bioinformatics, movies)
For modest domains, however, a form of automatic versioning control ("save tree") would solve the first case.I'd like to nominate this phenomenon the "Death Star Syndrome," or DSS.

A small request: whatever we finally decide to do, let's keep Slash Light.
Indeed, Ratpoison is the only application I know of that was developed specifically around Dvorak.
In good sadness, though, I'm looking forward to the spell-checking in Vim 7.
Whereas C's ghost is parsimony and piety, décadence haunts the house of Java.
That is to say, the parasitic purveyors thereof prey on sensitive souls.
Class-based ressentiment conceives of the successful passage of resources as somehow undeserved.
