I most disrespectfully request that my account be deleted or deactivated, preferably the former.

Whoops sorry! Mod's please close!

I always find dedoimedo's reviews thorough and stimulating. This one is worth a look.

That's strange: there seems to have been an approving reference to Thelema (or so Google tells me). In any case, I don't think Timmer was referring to religion as such but to my kind of FLOSSy...

Hah a critique of proselytizing religions. What's the alternative Tibuda?

Dudes, stay curious, use this as an opportunity to explore alternate ways to interface with your computer's processes. Try running a slim window manager like Openbox panel-less. It's a lot of fun....

Thanks whistling, much appreciated!

Now I will echo someone else's post (I'm too lazy to quote them but they know who they are) and say the more open the better! So all in all, we are, speaking...

Oh boy. This little exchange went from my suggesting the absence of a necessity to keep ALAC closed, to my citing an obvious example (in fact one that gsmanners also used), to accusations that I'm...

Well value is an interesting and long discussion, but let's just remark that Apple by some sleight of hand (never mind what it is here, though I'd be happy to elaborate elsewhere) has managed to...

Uh you're the only one talking about victimhood here. I quite enjoy the role of Linux fundamentalist, but I wasn't playing that here. Apple's software is top notch. Their hardware is overpriced....

Speak for yourself!

Closed source software keeps their users tied to their hardware. That's the Apple mantra, as it has always has been.

I'm not sure how that addresses your original distinction, but whatevz.

LINUX LINUX LINUX LINUX LINUX LINUX

You're free to criticize it as much as you want. Oh wait...

I disagree.

Rishi, bang them over the head with it! Linux! Linux! Linux! Linux!

Also, how are two loves mutually exclusive?

Making ALAC in the first place instead of opting for FLAC was unfriendly. If they had anything to gain financially from ALAC they would've kept it shut down.

Hey man one step at a time. You're young and you got your whole life ahead of you, and you still have time for college and to get into the job market or what's left of it! You've obviously got...

Eh who cares. FLAC is already around. This hardly makes Apple open-source friendly.

Two words: beer helmet.

Ha! GUI? What do you need the GUI for when you have like 4 fine console players to choose from!

Well when your vindictive RAM slits your throat in the night, don't say I didn't tell you so.

In order to use the mouse solely, yeah you do. Back and forward buttons for instance.

Not much point to it! I'd rather have a proper mouse interface.

^ You might wanna say what that is before he runs on it his system!

If Ubuntu maintains their packages, search for them in Synaptic. Or install in the command line.

For instance,


apt-get install uzbl

installs uzbl.

If other packages are not in the...

Conkeror is not exactly minimalist, but it has a clean interface with a modeline and is controlled by Emacs-like bindings.

It's fun for awhile, but I find something like Chromium to be a better...
