Frankly, if I can buy the game at a mainstream bookstore, I'm not interested. If the game had a booth larger than 200 square feet at GenCon, I'm not interested. If it says d20, WotC or Hasbro anywhere on the cover, I'm not interested. And for the same reasons I'm not interested in McDonald's hamburgers, Budweiser beer, or Microsoft Windows.
Er... because you're too cool for them or what?

Don't worry about it. People who post stuff like that are just disappointed that they haven't done anything in their own lives, so they jump on everyone else who reminds them of this.
"One specific commonality worth mentioning may surprise Quartz-proud OS X users: Both allow the creation of PDFs from any application's print dialog. KDE's implementation is arguably better, since it gives much more fine-grained control over PDF output."
Does this apply to Gnome as well, or is it KDE only? This is one feature I just love about OS X, and I find myself using it a few times every month for some odd thing.
I suppose you are right. I guess for me, Gnome is very close to what I'd want out of the box (save for Quicksilver (quicksilver.blacktree.com)). I guess I don't understand why anyone would want so much of what KDE offers, but I guess it is good that it is there for people that aren't like me.:-)

I use Quicksilver (quicksilver.blacktree.com) which is absolutely amazing. I haven't seen anything like it for Gnome or KDE or anything else. Everything from adjusting the volume to uploading files via ftp to selecting songs from iTunes can be done with simple predictive key commands. This is what allows me to keep everything so nice and clean otherwise.:-)
Nonsense.
1. Stay-at-home moms have a lot more time for this sort of thing.
2. Stay-at-home moms are typically bored as hell.
3. Stay-at-home moms make for a much better story! (This is the main point.)
A lot of people are out there fighting for our rights. While I do applaud moms, they're certainly not the only ones doing so.
Marx was much more than an economist, and even if his economic theories are completely bunk, he still has much to impart on today's way of viewing the world.
I'm not convinced... everyone and their grandmother knows that water vapor is already coming out of our tailpipes, along with a whole bunch of other crap. Haven't you ever seen a car run on a cold day?
Sorry, but this seems too close to "collecting reviews by letting visitors to a Web site fill out a form". Surely amazon would sue the USPTO over this.
Installers can install a lot of things without asking for a password. This is a *good* thing, otherwise you'd always have to enter your password to do anything, and hence it would lose all meaning. For example, an installer can add files to/Applications without a password, but if it wants to delete anything in/Applications, it needs the password to work. Of course most Mac apps install by drag-and-drop, but there you go.
I have a 1.25GHZ Powerbook, and iTunes takes 5 seconds to launch the first time, and about 2-3 after that. Perhaps your mini is just RAM starved? It really should be quite a zippy machine.
This actually doesn't look that bad at all. I mean, I'm technically a *design* student, but I've wrote assembly of similar length for things like atmel avr microcontrollers before. I can actually follow a good portion of this, and being as I'm not a computer scientists, I'd say that makes it fairly easy (in the grand scheme of things -- there is a lot of C++ code that just goes WAY over my head).

I'm not sure what's more stupid... your username, your comment, or your signature.
But the point is: you're bathing in powerplant runoff.
Big deal. You've been able to do that in New Jersey for decades.
Rather sad that all the music you'd buy comes from the "music industry", isn't it?

Let's hope... my Quicksilver has 171 as of now, and I have only installed one plugin. :-)
Can it do more complex things though? With quicksilver I can do this (with my current set of predictive commands):

That'll let me browse my desktop, select a file, and email it to someone all at once. Sexy, eh?
Thanks for the link.

I guess this is why I prefer Gnome. No offense, but that is the most hideous trainwreck I've ever seen.
Mine is this:

AAC is also an open format.
Thanks for ruining it man. Thanks a lot.
Debian's package management isn't good because of apt (or even aptitude): It is good because of the repository and package management process.
Yeah... that quad-core G5 machine sure isn't a serious computer in my book! Hell, my toaster has 16GB of RAM...
