Is that there seems to be no basic way to make seperate tables act like seperate images (like seperate words) in that they can reflow to horizontally use the window.
It totally kills window size adaptability for some things.
Tables would rock if they could do that. Who decided against it anyways?

You sound like Delenn telling Sheridan to shut up and let Morden go so the Shadows wouldn't openly attack stuff.
Frankly I think this is more of a Drahk situation where we need to build a pair of bigarse destroyers to knock out the deathcloud before it rains thermonuclear Longhorns onto the planet that'll dig deep into our computers and destroy the world of computing.
All I can think to launch at the approaching death-cloud right now are Knoppix discs.
We need to neutralize the NTFS gunfire if we're to install a decent planetary defense against the first wave. Otherwise we need to get to get all the other projects to make a sort of flying wedge so KDE and Gnome can use their main guns.
But if we wait until the last minute we'll prolly be plagued with Windows for another half-decade.:-)
Beware, half my USB ports failed and ASUS has been of negative worth in regards to support (their support system is broken, and when it does work after putting in that much effort you get completely ignored).
I keep wondering when I'll grow up and go for a cheap "it does what it needs to" motherboard.
This fecal matter just isnt worth the suffering I've had... (I was bitten earlier by an ABIT KT7A-R, horrible motherboard)
"I needed to replace the motherboards in two computers. The Linux computer booted up normally. The Windows computer BSODed! I tried again and it BSODed! I moved the harddrive to another system to try to get the Windows system I spent so much effort on back up, it BSODed. I use Linux now. HAHAHAHA"
I just tend to see more Apples than Commodores, thats why I figured that. Also, sorry I have to reiterate, but bleh. Apple ][ was horrible!
I recall the slow agonizing death of the Amiga, I think it may still be languishing. THAT was a sweet system until OS3.5 blew it to heck. Commodore's implosively misguided development and greedy people up top was only the beginning of that ride...
Reminds me, I have a battery that needs cutting out of an Amiga 2000. I wonder if I could get a toaster for it at throwaway pricing...
It's an earlyish Nintendo 64 game with a crap plot involving nuclear bombs and a stupid software design error. Just there to validate you having to come in and level cities using bulldozers, motorcycles with missile launchers, big robots, etc.
I really wish a modern sequel would pop up for this game...
You say the car manufacturer isn't liable if you send your car into a tree leading to catastrophic failure.
But what happens when someone else sends a tree into your car leading to catastrophic failure AND exploiting the design of your car to send trees into your neighbors' cars, some having the same design exploitability?
A car with a faulty lock and a canopy roof that can be used as a makeshift a catapult is rather suspect, even if you tell the car owners how to use a welding iron to fix it and offer free single use welding torches to the affected owners.
I have lost absolutely nothing on any of my desktops anywhere as a result of running with root-like permossions. I lose more data to windows crashes than anything else.
Okay, in your Windows is innately crap mindset you missed the association between these two sentences.
As root you can do whatever to the system, purposefully or otherwise. Under a normal user account you'll tend to fail in an attempt to crash the machine, keeping software from running as root isn't just a security issue.
Ogg is the container, Vorbis in the main Xiph audio codec. If you're evil enough you can make Ogg-MP3 or Ogg-WMA. Ogg only implies Vorbis due to common association.
Tremor isn't a codec at all, its a Vorbis playback engine.

1. Evil bacteria and viruses are everywhere too. I don't want to bother with them either.
2. If they did the same it wouldn't be an issue. Hunt the driver is a game I'm tired of, and its not very effective in a non-windows environment.
3. If it worked perfectly it would work without needing to munch on the CPU.
My solution was DSL with an old 28.8 backup. It works really well.
i've never tried knoppix but it seems like no one says anything bad about it
:-)
i'm kinda curious how it differs from debian if someone wants to give a quick rundown
Biggest difference is how much needs to be configured.

BSOD a joke? About as likely as kernel panic?
How about a slightly new joke then?

Theres a current normal Knoppix torrent at http://f.scarywater.net/ by the way.
Why imagine? I got a calculator...

Athlons would be putting out better graphics on their own that far into the future.
So you think the grass roots internet will have people who DON'T mind that their neighbor is pumping out gigatons of spam through them?
You think noone will notice and do something about it?
You think in that climate a new email protocol won't spring up?
Call it a decompressor scavenger hunt file.
.dsh file? ;-)
.zip and .zip compression in it!)
Heck, you'll need to chuck the extensions if you compress them a really cool number of times.
So who wants to post the world's first
(this is on topic, can use both
Funny?
Theres little stopping anyone from putting AAC in an Ogg stream.
Having a disk drive that was actualy reasonably quick was really inferior.
;-)
The disk subsystem did lack refinement. But it could act as a second audio channel.
In all seriousness, the only real advantage of the C64 was that it did have superior sound to the Apple ][.
It could speak English with the right software!!
It also had graphics that didn't look like some bizarre hack, and it had a number of somewhat useful interfacing ports.
But think about it -- it came out *five years* after the Apple ][. (1982 vs 1977).
That was the detail I was missing.
The Apple ][ must break down less or something though, because the Apple:Commodore ratio I see seems to tilt towards Apple over time.
I've heard murmurs of Acorn. Why not have a slashdot story on that. It'd be interesting at least.
I just tend to see more Apples than Commodores, thats why I figured that. Also, sorry I have to reiterate, but bleh. Apple ][ was horrible!

Mainly because I think its inferiorness clogged up the market for the Commodore 64.
I may be wrong, But I feel that the Apple ][ was fairly useless in comparison.
Sure, be small though.
:-)
--delete-after doesn't leave much behind.
I just had to bring it up.

The garf-tuned vorbis encoder (somewhere around sjeng.org) picks up where the official encoder leaves off quality wise.
.avi can be anything under the sun, .mov can be a number of things, and so forth. No way to tell by filename extension whats in them.
If this is unacceptable write a cool program that does it differently and hope it catches on, or just live with it.

Yeah, software has bugs.
But the fantastic number of bugs in Windows is inexcusable. Wasn't the count around forty thousand?
Sane software may also have bugs, those can usually be corralled to places where they don't make the front door fall off or the gas stove explode.

Yes, seek time. the file system is laid out to avoid needing to leap around the disc a whole lot.
Though you could burn ext2, just don't cry when Windoshes fail to read them.
Reinforcing name recognition?
"I recognize those people, they're the ones who repeatedly locked me out of my computer to try to sell me tires. DIE VERMIN!!!!!"
Companies should try making customers happy instead of using playground bully tactics on them.
