You're a nutcake. I have no reason to respect all animals. They're just stupid animals. And WTF is a "cruelty free diet"? Do you really think the billions of people who frequently eat animals are cruel? Of course you do, because you're a nutcake. I would really love to see you refuse to take any medicine produced from the "minimal good animal research has done". Only a nutcake would be blinded to all the good that has come from animal testing.
I agree! Even if Microsoft Office is horribly unusable, it at least looks good. On several occasions I've failed to switch people to open source apps only because what they were already using looked prettier.
You think that's bad? I'm male, but when I went on isotretinoin (super good acne meds) I had to hear hundreds of times how bad the stuff is for pregnant woman. "Don't let any women try this." "Don't leave this where females can get to it." "Never let any girl get within 10000 miles of these pills."
Well regardless of whether they are getting easier to use, they are certainly getting much prettier. Compare KDE to CDE, NEXTSTEP, Windows 9x, etc. I actually find all the glitz and glam can make things less functional, but is sure is pretty. Default GNOME is still prettier than all that old shit and often more functional.
Maybe instead of getting a phone that forces them to reserve time for calling the family, you should actually do some parenting. Get a pay-as-you-go phone and smack them around when they use up all their minutes on social calls.
You're obviously not thinking of the children. Without their parents constantly at hand-and-foot, they could get raped, killed, blown up by terrorists, coerced into prostitution by sexual videogames, or stolen by copyright pirates. Think of the children!
Back in my day you could just walk up to a stranger's house and ask to make a call. I really doubt that you can't still do that. You're probably not gonna get raped and killed for asking to use a phone.
Passing Acid 2 on a development branch is important because it shows that they are at least trying. Microsoft has specifically stated that they will not be lifting a single finger trying to pass the Acid 2 test.
It's been fixed on a development branch since April. screenshot It'll eventually be merged into trunk and get released, probably in time for Firefox 3.0.

If they're both open-source, I'll choose the one that's better regardless of who copied. If only one is open-source, I'll probably go with it regardless of who copied and which is better.
You're assuming smart people take advantage of their intelligence, which is often not true. I know a few dumb people with huge vocabularies and a few very smart people with quite small ones. Perhaps a better measure would be to test how quickly someone can learn new vocabulary. Dumber people seem much more likely to use a word strangely, like they don't fully understand its meaning.
Just because the prez did it doesn't mean it's okay to go around doing it. I agree that if you want to protest you shouldn't be purposely inconveniencing innocent people.

There's no reason to believe that any primates were tortured. But I like how you implied it to make yourself seem sane.
In case you haven't noticed, most people here at /. are against much of the US action in the middle east.

Worst post ev4r. Nobody wants to hear you whine about your post getting screwed up.

If the baby is defective enough it won't be able to sue.
Real nerds never compile anything. Assembly all the way.

If you don't care already, you probably never will.

What's with all that BS about getting punished if you're posting anonymously?
/. if you don't even use Wikipedia?

And what are you doing at
Of course it would. What kind of moronic question is that? How sweet it smells wouldn't change just because it is grouped in with different things.
Do you not realize that people can't get an accurate pronunciation out of the text "Ooranos"? I have no idea what that is supposed to sound like.
I'm guessing:
Oo as in booty
ra as in rotting
nos as in gnosis (as pronounced in Xenosaga, ironically)
But there are hundreds of other ways to interpret it.

As usual, there's more than one correct meaning.
Generic brand? Microsoft Windows is not generic. That's one of it's problems.
"generic" is an antonym for "proprietary"

According to Wikipedia it doesn't qualify for the TOP500 list because it is not capable of running the LINPACK benchmark.
