My browser is fine, thank you;-) But I dont keep ratings or tags ON, because it looks like almost all the post on the slashdot are tagged as "Funny +5".;-)
I didn't tought so because I have readed GNOME developer being told how easy it is to use with just a keyboard.... I just didn't get the way what he explained...:-)
And if you are smart, you know that all those applications works on Linux and not just on ubuntu. Ubuntu is nothing more than one distribution among others distributions! If you use Ubuntu, you use linux!
Please tell me how to navigate on those dialoges. I have tries so many times and everytime it just shows small filter window and does not do things what I have readed people's step-by-step instructions. Mayby I have missed lots of information:-/
Can you prove those 2 statements? Can you provide links to statements where he says that?
You didn't ask that from me but what kind impression I have had from what Aaron has told, is that KDE4 is coming smarter, so there is no need for configurations, because KDE will notice what user wants and leave more easier working enviroment for user when.
Feature and Configuration are two different things.
KDE has lots of features and lots of configurations. Gnome has few features and even less configurations. Now KDE4 will move kde to direction that there will be lots of features but much less configurations. Default look will be very simple and clean so all "dumb" gnome users can use kde easily but power user who knows what wants, can turn things ON and customize whole enviroment.
Seems you have not used KDE4 series, K letter has trowh out of window. It actually does bad things for new comers because they dont know is application for gnome or kde and then they complain that open/save dialog sucks if they use GTK application on kde or they complain that applications does not follow themes when using kde apps on gnome.
It was much better to have G and K somewhere on names so you always seed right away wich enviroment application it was.
"How did this development fly under the radar for over two months without anybody noticing?"
How has information, that other distributions has be sold longer than ubuntu, fly under the radar among Ubuntu fanboys without slashdot posters understanding that ubuntu isn't anykind special distribution?
The last time Congress formally declared war was World War II in 1941. Since then there have been extended military engagements, although votes were taken in Congress for the approval of the President's call to arms, no formal declaration of war has been made since 1941.
it could stir widespread panic if incorporated in a blast.
Hmm... I always tought that radiation on blast, would stir death and not panic...
This is AGAIN one f*ck* way try to control readers to get them fear someone.... Why someone dont shoot few people from U.S congress? Why people on control dont fear the people around them who are carrying guns, it is bigger change to get shot there than someone would get delivered dirty bomb to U.S! (actually, it is very easy to deliver, problem is just to get such thing;)
Sweden has one of the best networking, if not best, in the world. Goverment paid broadband cables to whole country and then allowed ISP's to use it for customers. Normal connection speed 10/10 or 100/100 is nice and there are that old woman who seems to have internet's "widest pipe" coming her home;-)
Because when you live on total communist country, you dont own anything what you need to use to get your work done, it is owned by "the community" what is actually "owned" by those who controls what is done and when, leaders.
You dont own the software what you use when you use software from Microsoft or Adobe, you just "borrow" it from them and you only pay license to USE it.
In open source world, you can edit the code as you like without releasing changes, as long you dont share/sell etc it. but the community owns the rights to changes if you are traing to get handicap to drive other competitors away from market, so it's easier to stay on market and it lives better ways.
On Closes Source/Propietar license etc, world, those who has the money and power, controls everything and users are those who loose. Now the world is like Prince Johann is on control, but Robin Hood (Open Source) has come to save us and brings possibilities etc, for poor people.
NASA is designing new rockets for Mars mission. It can be launched two times that weigh what on that moon rocket. And NASA needs few of those to get all the stuff to mars. It was bretty amazing to watch those documents of Mars mission planning.
Yes, Microsoft can come world biggest open source company, but it will never come world biggest free software company. Open Source and Free Software are two different things and Gates is again talkin only about Openess, not about Freedom.
Even that Microsoft has license what has aproofed on FSF, it does not mean that MS would use those.
And I tought that Vista was new ME, because I dont know anyone who would be willing to buy it, they just get it as forced because they buy those OEM PC's and not customized without OS and trowh XP with existing license or GNU/Linux on it.
The woman suffered third degree burns over her thigh and groin area, totaling to be about 20% of her body, and second degree burns in her groin area. Okay, third degree burns because of coffee.... Yeah....
I know a man (now 40-45 years old), who saved his grandmother and two sisters when he was 15, from burning house. He ran three times inside the house of fire, carried first his grandmother out, protecting him with carpet. Then he rolled on ground to stop flames on him self, and runned back to get other sister with same way, rolled again and got second sister away from house.
In this few minutes rescue operation, he got over 70% of his skin, 3 degree burns. His skin was needed to cut open with knive around chest, so his lungs got space to expand and allowed him to breath. This field operation (with knive) was done by fireman who arrive there just when he came out last time. He spend months on hospital because of it. My cousin was then on that hospital as his physical therapist. She nursed him two times a day, every muscle was needed to stretch and one day, when she was stretching his frist gently as on all other days, arteria opened and blood started to spray, the frist was so friable. Even he had "fake skin".
Now, ~30 years from it, he has own family, a wife and few childrens and scars all over his skin.
And then we have a people, who sues McDonalds because their coffee is too hot. And the coffee could give them a 3rd degree burnds... Yes, only on america....
I think wich one would be more possible to get serious 3rd degree burns, you run inside of house what is totally on fire, not once or two times but three times.
Or that you drop your hot coffee on your crouch when you are sitting on car?
Forget to mention that I have actually never used office applications to other things than typing. I have only changed font size, bold or underlined and I have done all editing with tab or enter. When I started to study on university, I needed to produce good looking documents, what others can edit too (so I didn't just print them on paper), and university buyed us a 2.2Ghz dual core, 2GB ram, 1280x800 computers with 160Gb HD. These includes Windows Business and Office 2007 Student, Microsoft visual studio Express and lots of other open source tools like eclipse, GIMP etc etc. I tryed two first months to do good looking documents, and if you remember what I have before this used (enter, tab, font size), I have totally lost... After the two months, I walked to IT deparment to ask if they can install OpenOffice or Lotus Sympohony, they installed OpenOffice 2.2 and I was amazed, how easy it was just to do all kind documents with it and fill graphics for it on inkscape. I have used lots of inkscape, so I know how to do nice graphis.
But actually, when it comes that I need to do very important, nice looking documents to print/show, I write the text with OpenOffice writer. I make graphics with Inkscape and then I bring all those to Scribus and I make nice looking PDF. I dont fight with MS Office, OpenOffice with that.
I know I should learn latex but... I have managed to do all fine with these three applications, OpenOffice, Inkscape and Scribus. Lots of easier way than on MS Office 2007, even that I went to one lesson (10 hours totally) to learn it.... waste of time... for _me_!
Slashdot Mirror
But it isn't so cool looking, does not look it's modern airport then if it's just a plastic ;-)
50 green LED lights and power adapter is enough..
What you mean by OS?
a) a Kernel
b) a OS (kernel+tools)
c) Complete software system what is refered as "OS"?
My browser is fine, thank you ;-) But I dont keep ratings or tags ON, because it looks like almost all the post on the slashdot are tagged as "Funny +5". ;-)

Should it be now "What OS do you use?"
Because many new linux users believes that Ubuntu is different OS than Debian etc.

Actually Microsoft is communistic software.
Because when you live on total communist country, you dont own anything what you need to use to get your work done, it is owned by "the community" what is actually "owned" by those who controls what is done and when, leaders.

Why Ubuntu gets again this kind publicity and not other GNU/Linux distributions what has be working on it long time and has instructions too?
Is this again one kind trick to separate Linux community by promoting Canonical as 'superior' OS manufacture?
Doesn't Ubuntu users anymore know what Ubuntu means?
Can Windows move forward with a completely new, fast, and secure OS and still keep legacy application support?"
Hah, Microsoft coudn't keep good enough legacy support on w2k > XP or XP > Vista. how could it keep on newer Windows NT versions?
NASA is designing new rockets for Mars mission. It can be launched two times that weigh what on that moon rocket. And NASA needs few of those to get all the stuff to mars. It was bretty amazing to watch those documents of Mars mission planning.

What it would be? I dont get anything else than angry monkey... Borg was great about Bill, but Ballmer...
Yeah, I got nothing!
This is not so good info for Bill, but he should googled it....
Really, it's nice to see that director does this kind small "tests" about how world greatest company, what he leads works...
What scenario would be the new Rambo then?
And I tought that Vista was new ME, because I dont know anyone who would be willing to buy it, they just get it as forced because they buy those OEM PC's and not customized without OS and trowh XP with existing license or GNU/Linux on it.
