I agree, but don't you think that Michael Bevington is overreacting just a little bit?
I felt a steadily widening range of unpleasant effects whenever I was in the classroom, he said. First came a thick headache, then pains throughout the body, sudden flushes, pressure behind the eyes, sudden skin pains and burning sensations, along with bouts of nausea. Over the weekend, away from the classroom, I felt completely normal.
It works well enough for me. QtCurve even tries to get rid of some basic UI differences.
I'm really no HCI expert, but I've seen some non-geek users use GTK and QT apps simultaneously with QtCurve installed, without any problems related to the differences between the toolkits. The UI design differs enough to give that "clue", while a consistent widget style creates some sort of uniformity on a different level.
You should try QtCurve. It has a Qt and a GTK2 theme, and renders almost 100% identical on both. It's highly configurable too, and can be made to look quite nice.
There's even a GTK1 theme, but the author dropped support for it a few versions back.
Eft is just another word for newt. A newt -a small aquatic salamander- is able to re-differentiate its cells, and regenerate its eyes, spinal cord and limbs. Maybe the new name is trying to say Ubuntu is as robust as a newt? I don't know...
It's a bit far-fetched anyway, and it doesn't sound as cool as Breezy Badger.
37 The average number of texts a user sends per month compared with 21 in 2001 1 million the number of children aged under 10 in Britain - one in three - who own a phone
From TFA: According to recent research, 81 percent of Web sites in the United Kingdom are inaccessible to disabled people, while a separate report found that only 3 percent of European public-sector Web sites met W3C accessibility guidelines.
Good to see they are caring about accessibility and compatibility, because those two are often overlooked when talking about internet coverage. They are actually talking about 90% of the population, and not just 90% geographical coverage.
Does this new classification method really have any advantages for the average user? I'm sure most people just want to keep their systems malware-free, and could care less about the names of the individual threats.
Only if they are unmaintained. One can not drastically change a biological species' immune system (yet), but one can improve a network's security measures.
"Though Linux passed Microsoft in web-server market share long ago, it remains second in overall share for intranet and general-purpose servers. But unless there is some break in the trend curves Linux really will be #1 around the beginning of 2005."
Yet another futile keyboard redesign attempt. Messing with the entire layout isn't likely to work. I suppose more subtle changes might have a higher chance of getting adopted by the broad public.

Anyway: Your desktop, your choice

The author either spent more time gaming than learning how to spell, or none of these devices have a decent homebrew spell checker.
Anyway, I've heard the GP2X isn't really fast, and porting apps to its rather unique architecture is hard. I'd still love to have one though...

That guy at ethereal.org will be really surprised when he sees his server bill :-)
Linux support? I guess not...
...Stuff that matters.
By the way, does the diet coke react more in combination with the mentos, or are they just afraid of gaining weight?
I bet this was totally unexpected here ;-)
Wouldn't allowing each app to have its own instruction set create yet another kind of programming bugs, and make debugging really hard?

2. Create crappy OS
3. Build monopoly
4. Be Evil
5. PROFIT!!! (lots)
Sorry, couldn't help it...

Oh...
This should be implemented in classrooms. As soon as a student zones out, a big red light would start flashing above his head.
Education will never have been more efficient!

Worms with bugs?
Really?
Let's hope it doesn't cause a fatal explosion.
1) randomly select 2000 lines of code
2) compile
3) execute
4) ???????
5) PROFIT!
