And I have a couple RCA composite cables that I use for component cables. (The wire doesn't know the difference between yellow and blue; and component can be used for high def. Just doesn't work with DRM (feature?))
To counter that, I use a Hotmail address for my personal email despite being a long time Linux user. I don't put it on my resume because of stupid prejudices like those coming out in this conversation; but it integrates into Pidgin/Thunderbird/KMail nicely and the web mail client has all the features one would expect.
Agreed. He tried to sell Fedora (and GNOME?) as being good for power users who aren't afraid of the command line.
I used Fedora for a couple months between Gentoo and Arch. In Gentoo and Arch I have the terminal open all the time, and feel in control of my packages. With Fedora/GNOME there were things I "couldn't" configure with the command line because the tools were only meant to be used with a GUI; and there were often out of date packages that I couldn't upgrade.
Power users that want the cutting edge are better off with something that lets them do what they want to do and install what they want to install without getting in the way of terminal users, like LFS, Gentoo, or Arch.
They also want the window manager/desktop of their choice, not the cookie cutter Gnome + Compvis / KDE 4.3 choices that Ubuntu/Fedora/openSuse etc. give you.
I agree Think Geek is a good place to go for ideas, but once you've found something check the websites of the neighborhood box stores. I've often found that I can find the same thing at Canadian Tire or some other shop for a lot less money and no wait.
If someone requests to add me to their friend list before, they could hide virtually all the information about themselves from me besides a name which may sound familiar. A curious person may add this person to their friends list because they don't know whether they know the person or not, thus divulging all their information to the party. At least now they'd have to make a profile that put them in a reasonable city and attract friends I know. I could check if they have thousands of friends world wide and probably don't actually know me before I give up my privacy to them.
The information which is forced public is adequate for identifying a person you might know without including more sensitive information like addresses, email addresses, and messages or photographs (besides the profile picture)
There are several other things, the most significant of which in my opinion is property descriptors:
eg. For any property (value/function) of an object you can specify whether it is: writable, enumerable, or configurable; allowing for read only properties, properties which do not pollute a for(val in obj) call, and properties which cannot be messed with by other programmers.
Good, particularly if it defaults to requiring the root password.
For those that don't know, Fedora 11 already had an interface where administrators can change whether numerous other actions require a root password (and whether it requires it every time or just the first time.)
Extending that to include installing signed packages gives the administrator of a system the ability to choose for their system whether they trust users to install packages without contest or not.
I think the only problem with F12 was that they turned the feature to the less secure option by default. It didn't help that the interface for changing it was relatively hidden.
Perhaps it would have been different if I was trying to run windows programs, but I find DOSBox much better for running old dos games than Mo'Slow and cmd on modern hardware. DOSBox is also capable of scaling graphics through a number of different filters to solve the posters original problem... if only he wanted to play Warcraft 2 instead of Starcraft.
My mom died, and she's on Facebook. I know my dad and other relatives want her off because it keeps suggesting to add her as a friend, which is slightly cruel. I think however the processes of producing a digital obituary notice etc. is a little insensitive - it would be best if the process was as quick and painless as possible. I also very much hope it doesn't suggest "You might know this dead person"
The fan speed and heat vs AC is all dependent on the cabin temperature relative to the temperature I set. I live in Canada, but I can leave the control on auto set for 21C year round.
I find it hard to believe they would be running the AC compressor at the same time the heat is going in the middle of winter, but I don't know enough to say otherwise.
With the OEM copy that came with the computer they quit using when they bought the mac. They may be not quite 'legal' due to OEM licensing restrictions, but they are genuine.
Perhaps he means in polynomial time. In that case said developer would be fairly handsomely rewarded both with money and fame to give up his P=NP secret. Probably more so than he could as the worlds best traveling sales man consultant.
This technique is a lot more invasive than casting, and it's not injectable. They cut you open and place it just like the metal counterpart; the improvement is that you don't have to be cut open twice. So, better than bolting a metal rod down your leg, then removing it a couple months later, much worse than putting some plaster over your skin to keep you in place.

I'd mention that MySpace uses a distributed file system running on Gentoo; but I think that might just prove your point.

Any other time and it would be off-topic

Just checked this, there is no message which goes along with a friend request.

Didn't you hear? Indie has become too trendy, mainstream is the new hipster music.
Even JScript (in IE8) is smart enough to internally choose between a data structure optimized for dense or sparse data. See: http://blogs.msdn.com/jscript/archive/2008/03/25/performance-optimization-of-arrays-part-i.aspx

Digicam is impressive, but overwhelming for a casual user compared with F-Spot, iPhoto, Picasa, and Adobe Photoshop Album SE (imho)

My car has a 'thermostatic regulator' and it's a 2002 Ford Taurus SEL. Not exactly modern.
