I thought the same thing. It makes me wonder what an incredible amount of money all these businesses are wasting to buy a Windows license for a point of sale terminal.
Why do people always say FFIV-VI were the best games ever made? They were good, but seriously... it's called nostalgia, and it clouds your judgement. Wake up.
Hey, I agree with you. Movies suck. It's not because of the nudity, it's because the writing is bad, the acting is bad, and the plots go nowhere.
Movie fans will tell me the plots and characters are "deep". But really, they're just shallow and formulaic. Not the same thing.
So don't fear movie fans because they might be idiots wasting their money. Fear them because they have no taste, and probably think the novelty T-Shirts they wear are funny.
I would think a Ringworld type construct would have to be somewhat flexible... as opposed to shattering into millions of pieces or burning like diamond. Assuming this material has some of the same properties of diamond (hard + brittle).
Really, reading your comment makes me wonder what lame ass things you tried.
a) Instead of a VMware Session, you should have just used the Ubuntu LiveCD.
b) Search for the command to delete? What command? Right Click > Delete? Highlight > Delete Key?
c) All your problems with installing could be avoided by either doing section a or using Ubuntu packages. Simply googleing "VMware Ubuntu" gives you a tutorial on as the FIRST RESULT.
d) If you actually INSTALL Ubuntu it will auto-mount drives, CDs, iPods, etc.
e) Applications > System Tools > Add/Remove Programs.
f) Places > Search for Files.
Most of your problems are from trying to use VMWare, which I'm almost sure you pirated. Or did you purchase a piece of software thats $299 last time I checked to test Ubuntu when you could have just burned the FREE LiveCD?
When you can't even figure out Places > Search for Files, I wonder what the hell you are doing using something like VMware.
Ubuntu GNU/Linux has it's flaws (some slight bugs in supporting my video card for one, Intel i810) but the community (ubuntuforums.org, ubuntuguide.org) are the best I've seen (they won an award at arstechnica) and once again, it's FREE.
The first time you used a computer, did you sit down at your Wintel PC and know how to do everything you're doing now? No. People expect Linux to be a clone of Windows. The only thing is, it's better.

...probably should have done the same thing when 4Kids took up One Piece. Or seppuku. Either one.

3, 4, and 5 are some of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

OSS might be about choice, but some choices are glaringly obvious.
