A BSOD is most probably a driver problem. The game only triggered the problem, but is not the cause.
Also, the engine used is the UT3 engine, a _very_ widespread engine, so it's probably not the engine fault either.
Having visited te salar of uyuni one month ago, I can assure whoever wrote the summary that the salt flats are not left untouched, but are already exploited. The lithium is extracted and then sent to Chile for processing.
Ok so I read TFA more carefully, and I found that according to RMS, "the compacted code is not source code and the real source code of this program is not available to the user".
The javascript is a client-side program. So as a client, I can, every time I want, look at the source code of the javascript being run.
Doesn't this make all javascript programs open-source?
If I read TFA correctly, they say that the infected BIOS can modify files on the hard drive such as a windows library and inject code that reflashes the BIOS with the virus. So you'd need to reflash the rom _and_wipe the hard drive.
So, you don't state any of the needs your user will have, yet you ask if you will face any problems.
As I see things, if your users are satisfied with OO, then you are too. But we can't guess here. Knowing their exact needs when it comes to portability seems essential to me.
Other problems as the difference between button layouts in OO and Msoffice may be more or less important depending on the user base.
Let me finish by saying that for someone that doen't like the idea of "being stuck in microsoftland", you seem pretty badly informed when it comes to free/open source software.
A look at the features of open office would have answered at least the first and last of your questions.
So my story about how to optimize sharing of large files over a LAN gets rejected, yet Buffy MMO is on the front page?
Whoever decided this (or upvoted this) needs to have his brains checked quick. With a chainsaw.
Ms scheduler may have a cool name, but it definitely sucks. A celeron 2000 on ubuntu is always responsive, while my 3500+ on Xp is not.
And when I say "not", I mean absolutely not, some times for 10 seconds straight, ie when my AV is loading, or when firefox tries to load a flash app when the processor is already busy.
... very obvious to the rescue! I can't believe our friend phantomfive can write with a straight face that "Commentators offered up the opinion that this was probably more out of habit than malice". WTF? I mean, since when has piracy been around huh? And since when do pirates download files out of malice? Does he seriously think that someone starts his computer in the morning, puts some bittorents to download with a big grin in his face while saying to himself "har har! Witness the evil I am going to do today!". Piracy is because of conveniency and quality. Of course people are going to download a 256Kb VBR file or ape file intead of a lousy 128kbps file. Without having to find the proper website. Without having to write captachas and filling some forms, and giving their email adress, and fearing the website not to be genuine.
No it's not 32Kbps! I was curious too about the quality and found all songs I listened to being encoded in 192kbps. I wonder if songs have different encodings. 32kbps seems a lot too compressed to be even remotely listenable.
... GAMES!!! Games make more money now than movies, can't you realize how important its become? I'm not prepared to give up that anytime soon. Even if some distro has everything I need but games (and most have), I'm not going to boot under windows to play then boot a linux to browse the web. I'm just going to do everything on windows because its more convenient, and because it gives me the freedom to play if I want to, then switch back quickly to what I was doing. What really saddles me is that I already use mostly OSS, so switching wouldnt be a problem. I'd love to. But I'm not going to if I dont have the choice of paying the games I like.

You are wrong about fur, look at the endition of fur in Black and White 2 for example, that was quite convincing. http://guides.gamepressure.com/blackandwhite2/gfx/gallery/large/Screenshots/bnw2_scr4.jpg
Where are the mod points when you need them? _That_ was funny.

I think its 15W per panel.

mismodded again, posting to remove it.
Removing my mod.
This is the second funny coment mis-modded so far. Why the sad face, moderators?
There is a package named 'abrowser' in ubuntu repositories that does just that, if I recall well.
Seriously, they answer your question in the article, wich makes your submission completely irrelevant.

This is a well known bug, with pre-SP1 vista systems I think. Can't find a link relatde to this, but I'm sure having read about this.

I can't access TFA from work. Thank you very much!
May I suggest to look at this explanation posted by somenone who worked on the spec. It gives a list of clues of why the API is in that state.
... I felt when i read the title as "SourceForge admin gives up keys to hijacked city network".
... very obvious to the rescue!

I remember that one, was submitted to me by a friend. Then i forwarded it to my father.
God, please forgive me.

And how would a VM prevent them to have your IP adress?
