I find it hilarious that - even with the obvious money-under-the-table bias, even with the fact it's shoved in every IE user's face by default (and the fact changing the default on that is deliberately hard and confusing), they can still only get 10%.
Along with blowing up Yellowstone and other sundry destructions,
That reminded me... I wonder if someone's going to make a movie about the Yellowstone supervolcano that's supposedly overdue to explode and choke everyone to death with a planetwide dust cloud. Unlike this, that one's got a bit of scientific weight behind it...
But take Gentoo emerge for example. The fact that it is written in Python instead of C, awk, shell script, Tcl, Lua, or Java is mainly why I don't run Gentoo.
That can't possibly be the real reason, unless you don't understand C++ either.
Pretty much everything else I could say on topic has already been posted.
"The world is ending!!1" "No it isn't!" "Yes it is!"
While everyone concerned is too preoccupied with their petty PR flame wars and protecting their bottom line, the world actually is getting fucked up beyond repair because of them.
I've never seen that problem. I'll admit I'm currently using it on an obscenely overpowered desktop with multiple cores and gigs of RAM (and the location bar history STILL takes a second to come up), but even on my netbook (a 1st-gen eee) it's nowhere near as slow as you describe.
Roundabouts are a good idea if done right. The ones where I live are anything but. Here's my personal favourite; normally all the lanes are congested. In rush hour most of the exits are too which makes it even more fun.
In theory, it's possible to take any source file and shove a #! line at the top that'll make it compile and run when executed. There's already several compilers that know how to do this, I can think of DMD and LLVM off the top of my head.
I really don't see why ZFS deserves a front page article every time it assimilates another piece of old news. I guess it's a lesson to any software project looking for publicity - build everything into a monolithic ball of mud and win free slashvertisements.
Don't forget the copies made by having sound coming out of two or more speakers at once, and the copies you receive when that sound reflects off walls.

The LHC is at least the size of a town.
The real question is "When will Microsoft's shitty browser either support DOM 2 or go crawl in a hole and die?"
The standard was finalised almost a decade ago. We're still waiting.
There's no point bragging about being faster than last month's graphics card if your own is still a quarter of a year from being an actual product.
Well done, you actually got someone to sit there and read through that whole thing today.
Or 5 minutes with Freetype instead of MS's joke antialiasing.
Which features of PNG are missing from IE?
too limited for power users.
Thankfully now that it's being dropped from Ubuntu, it won't need to hold back for stupid people any more.
and neither will the presence or lack of compositing.
You'd be surprised how much a proprietary graphics driver can suck, even in 2009.

But where do you get the energy to build the photovoltaic cells in the first place?

- Is there not promise of rain?
- Yes, but only a promise.
I wouldn't touch this .Net stuff with a 10-lightyear pole, open source or not.
You forgot to type "Linux" in ALL-CAPS

He didn't want to get fined $150k.
They buy for $400, sell for $800, then geometrically increase their purchases fucking up the supply chain for legitimate users.

btrfs isn't meant to compete with reiser4. If you want that, go follow Tux3 instead.
Here you go.

Never mind. Your turn will come someday.

First, since when has MS EVER promoted standards?
When they're the standards body.
