Yeah, Sony and Microsoft partnered to create Digital Rights Management for Humans. We should be careful, though. As I understand the EULA, if we attempt to decode Paul Allen's genetic code without purchasing a license to his soul, he might be obiliterated. Not to mention that we'd be stealing all the thousands of years of God's hard work. Didn't you watch that commercial before the last movie you went to?
Well said. The GNU/Linux "movement" has always been, and continues to be, all about options, in everything from installation to usage. While I'm a fan on Ubuntu's one CD install, I appreciate the options Mandriva is offering.
It always has had a package manager. pkgtool.
It doesn't do depenedency checking, but that doesn't make it not a package manager, any more than a lack of point and click interface makes vi not a text editor.
Dear Friends,
Hello good to finaly get this to you i am Al-Zawab Al-Ackbar and are seeking to tell you about emails that should not be sent because of recent US legislations. When you send "to all" you might be prosecuted in courts of US laws. How ever, I have a very large fund from same such emails I would like you to hold for me please reply instant and I can arrage details. Thank you GOD BLESSINGS
It was a dark and stormy night. "I do declare, Mr. Horace: the summer is quite hot this year." It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
I'm going to have to agree with you about the problems, but as others have said, blame the browsers. However, once you get past the initial curve, using divs and floats actually gives you more freedom than tables, is a hell of a lot faster loading, and looks *almost* dandy in every browser.
You get some problems cropping up, because the MSIE team apparently decided the specicified models for standard margins, and what the word "padding" means just wasn't suitable for them. So what you're dealing with in your frustration is mostly MSIE refusing to play the game.
1. MSIE is not only preloaded, it is the file browser. I draw this difference because GNOME has Epiphany (or these days, FF) preloaded, and many other OSes have some browser preloaded, and you won't get the same performace.
That being said, objective speed tests show that when it comes to *loading* pages, IE is way behind.
2. There's more to it than that. There are several memory leaks in the code.
3. Putting it into your startup folder doesn't decrease the load time, it just makes it load at a different time. And Windows sucks so badly at multitasking (given that its a multitask emulator at best), I don't want another program running when I don't need it.
*I totally agree: don't use leaky extensions, try alternatives, tell developers. Whining on/. is not going to fix da broken browzerz.
I'm not in favor of just shipping money around...
Thank God...and I don't know how to solve the world's problems. I just don't think overpopulation will cause the human race to go under within 100 years.
Agreed!
I'm not saying wealth itself makes for lower population growth, but economies where people are busy having careers produce less kids.
That's a reasonable cause. I wouldn't say it's the primary cause, though.
At what point in history has spreading the wealth (a precursor to the inevitable socialist regime) ever proven to be a beneficial (to the economy, stability and growth of a nation) idea? And how could such a measure possibly directly affect the population in the way you describe? You're completely disregarding the reality of the statistically lower population growths in wealthier nations. The possession of wealth itself does not itself create a lower population any more than jogging around John Hopkin's campus will make me a doctor.

There are always things like install media. No need to require everything be obtained from apt. It's a war of preference.

that they were manufacturing this new memory out of the recycled parts from millions of discarded RDRAM chips.

OS/2 compiles your homemade C code faster than you've ever seen before!
Somebody set up us the bombe! ...sorry.
