Tab mix plus? Granted, it's an extension, not by default, but it (along with adblock) is one of my "can't live without" extensions. The problem with Konqueror is that I can't use it on Windows. (well, not very easily)
Mmm, two points.
1. Guild Wars is not an MMO. It is an RPG that allows you to play with other people, called a CORPG (co-op role-playing game)
2. The lack of a subscription fee is not what makes Guild Wars pwn; it's the bait. I refuse to pay monthly for games, and that's what got me to buy GW. However, it is all the other things that have made me stay. (ask if you really want a list)
Hmm, well, I don't buy any gaming mags. But one of my friends does, and it's solely for the *ahem* "polygons". I think that's weird, but that's the reasoning behind buying gaming mags: portable virtual pron.
It's over-rated because, well, that's a moderation. If I want to mark you down, but you're not really a troll or flamebaiter, I just mod you overrated.
Well, just like any other encyclopedia, WP is a third-party source. If you are using it for a research paper, there is something wrong. Not because WP is necessarily inaccurate, but because you shouldn't use encyclopedias for research.
I completely agree with you. The problem is, most parents... are not. Oh, and please don't bring abortion into this issue. That almost makes your insightful turn into a flamebait.
One thing regarding the dock: until you hover over the icon, it's just a picture. For me, as well as most people, pictures work best. But my Dad is text-oriented; he can't find things by pictures. He has to have the text underneath the shortcut for him to find it.
I completely agree with this. However, it's not just the elderly, but a lot of us young 'uns as well. So many people I know are clueless when it comes to things. Of course, they shouldn't *have* to know so much (preferably), but right now the predominant OS is ahem not secure. Though, of course, I'm sure we're all familiar with social engineering. The user is the sysadmin's worst security nightmare.
The security troubles that have dogged Microsoft's Internet Explorer web browser, for instance, are caused by hackers writing pieces of code that exploit vulnerabilities in IE's code, enabling them to use the browser as a springboard to carry out a malicious action - such as hijacking a user's PC.
Meanwhile, web designers are busy at work creating web pages that work in Internet Explorer. Since MS doesn't give a DRM about standards, the developers' beautiful code must be "hacked" to work in IE.

Uhm, unix core. Topped by a crappy resource-intensive gui.

Mmm, you've obviously missed the "free as in beer, or free as in speech" lesson. You can't be on /. without knowing that.

Ever heard of Chinese farmers?
Or just use your hosts file.
Because it's a non-profit organization trying to pay for itself. Granted, servers are cheap, but they still cost money.
Hmm, that's (one of) the reason(s) I play Guild Wars... AI henchman ftw
I don't understand the point of beta for Halo 3. I never saw anything that great about the first two.
but I don't know if I would do this for anyone I didn't know well personally. Sounds like a security risk to me.

He said Linux, not command line. Remember that there are people like me who use Linux, but haven't a clue with a CLI.
You obviously don't play any games... Getting your ubermicro on without being able to feel anything is a tad bit hard.
Lol, TA is a great game of destruction. I was so disappointed when I played Starcraft and saw the nukes...
