Yes, the lawsuits are heard in civil courts. That's when people are downloading or are uploading without profiting from it. However, selling "pirate" copies of CDs, I believe, is "criminal...

My Spanish is a bit shaky, but I think this is it:

Usted ha alcanzada Guillaume. Por favor registre un mensaje.

(Pronounced "oo-STED ah al-can-ZA-da Guillaume. Pour fa-VOUR ray-GEE-stray...

I don't remember how I wound up here exactly. I think Dapper came out and I was tired of rebuilding my Gentoo installation frequently, so I switched. I'd already been using GNU/Linux for two years,...

At first, I used GNU/Linux because I didn't like Microsoft. Now, I don't like Microsoft because I love Unix-like operating systems, as well as the communities that surround them. In short, even if...

I'd say the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc) is most important. Without it, development and packaging would be extremely difficult at best.

Microsoft grows because of marketing and politics. Free software grows because of technical merit and community collaboration. Why should we respect a group that excels only at things about which...

I quite agree. Free software has a lot of real killer apps. I actually think a lot of the most powerful ones are console programs like vim, screen, and ssh, not to mention bash and friends. I'm...

Another really excellent way to avoid viruses, malware, etc., is to use GNU/Linux, *BSD, another Free Software operating system, or, to be honest, anything other than Windows. Unfortunately, TC will...

I have plenty of hard drive space and use most/all of the default Kubuntu applications. There's no reason for me to uninstall kubuntu-desktop.

I climb stairs two at a time, but I descend stairs one at a time. OMG.

*Doesn't read thread*

Okay, switch to Free/Open/Net/DragonFly BSD.

PatrickMay, I can understand where you're coming from, since I've been there myself. Things started getting really busy for me around a year ago, and I needed an operating system that wouldn't take...

I guess having all the vowels be long u's is a bit awkward. On the other hand, I agree that the meaning of the word fits the project perfectly.

I'm a fan of Krusader, and I like how Pygocelis looks. It took me a while to get Krusader configured the way I wanted it, though, and I thought I had pretty logical preferences, such as having sync...

In spoken communication, I vary quite a bit on this, but in writing I use "GNU/Linux" 99% of the time.

RIP Gaim

Nah, just kidding. I like the new name and didn't even have to look it up in the dictionary to understand it. :KS

I use the CLI version on my Kubuntu machine because I'd rather do that than use a GTK application in KDE (I'm really particular about such things, for some not-very-good reason). To be perfectly...

Amarok. This became an easy choice after I switched to KDE.

Their problem is that they're using an inferior operating system. :)

Seriously, though, you should try telling these people who don't think GNU/Linux is a "real" operating system that a large...

Same here. I find Evolution's calendar component too buggy. Thunderbird is good for e-mail but I want something that integrates well with KDE.

On another note, discussions of any type of Free...

I think it's worth pointing out that Mouse Gestures can be created and configured globally with KDE. In Kubuntu, at least, there is a built-in gesture set for Konqueror that is disabled by default. ...

I'm guilty of typing "ls" in Windows/DOS command shells. For some reason, though, I tried to compensate by using "dir" in Cygwin. :confused:

I've been with Ubuntu for nine months. The baby is due any day now. :popcorn:

I prefer KOffice because it's faster, integrates well with KDE, suits my needs well, and is being developed very actively.
