    It's the touch pad / web cam / other laptop stuff that is iffy in Linux.

    Oh, really? If you say so...

  5. My wife and I have backup Yahoo mail accounts, since GMail has an odd habit of not working in China, where we frequently travel.

    Yahoo is not bad for Web-based mail, BTW.

    Nobody's talked about "gassing the 1%" except you.

    Perhaps you should stop projecting your death-camp fantasies onto others who may just possibly not share them? Thanks!

    The "loss" of Breitbart would be a net gain for the Internet.

    No it isn't.

    No, it isn't.

    Are you stoned, or are you naturally just that silly?

  15. Anyone who gets me to crack a smile first thing in the morning before the coffee's ready must be doing something right.

    Out of mod points right now, but hope you'll accept this neat-O genuine imitation gold star in lieu thereof. And a fresh cuppa, if you're so inclined.

  19. Re:Bye Bye Adobe on Adobe Resurrects Flash Player On Linux (neowin.net) · · Score: 1

    Clearly Adobe needed to squeeze more blood from all of their turnips or otherwise they would not have instigated this.

    Or, much more rationally, they decided that maintaining rolling releases on subscription over supporting multiple releases on perpetual is more cost effective for them and their customers.

    If it were more rational, you'd expect it to be more parse-able, which it ain't.

    I still haven't forgiven Adobe for this.

    Excellent SVG authoring program (from the same folks who produced PaintShop Pro), purchased by Corel (motherfuckers), re-sold to Adobe (motherfuckers squared), and shut down.

    If Trajectory had been permitted to mature, Flash would have been all but dead and forgotten at least 5 years ago.
