I'm sure the fine folks at 419eater would be willing to take this scammer for a whirl if you could convince him to call one of their "baiter" phone numbers.8-)

Link?

Exactly. Besides, just like when Napster, Kazaa, etc, went down, something else will pop up in its place.

I'm running daily svn snapshots of KDE 4.2 on Arch (not KDEmod) and it's relatively stable. I honestly haven't run into that many bugs and the ones that I do encounter are typically inconsequential...

There is absolutely no excuse for this kind of censorship. The government has no right (in general terms, not legal terms) to decide what is and is not "appropriate" for my viewing. This is a...

Wow...that was epic. I think you really hit the nail on the head. It's good to be an advocate of FOSS, but it's equally important to be realistic about it.

Not me. It's probably a symbolic gesture more than anything else.

I'll see your dist-upgrade and raise you a pacman -Syu!

Just kidding. It's good that it worked for you.

I think that the "boring quality" you were referring to is stagnation. Just look at the latest version of GNOME, 2.24, which will ship with Intrepid Ibex. They've finally added the ability to restore...

I've got a beautiful pair of Beyerdynamic DT880's that I reserve exclusively for nighttime listening when I want to relax. They make my music sound truly incredible! :KS

For the life of me, I don't understand why Best Buy does so much better than Circuit City. They both have the same ridiculously marked-up prices and generally clueless employees, so why should...

KDE 4 rocks my world. It's still rough around the edges, but I think 4.2 will clear up a lot of that.

GNOME is very stable and easy to use, but I don't think it's particularly innovative.

I...

This worker you're talking about sounds exactly like my mother. "My computer was working JUST FINE until YOU messed it up!" "Why do I have to upgrade? Everything was working JUST FINE!"

I think,...

It's an interesting idea in concept, but I'm not so sure I like it in practice. Dell isn't exactly a stellar company to work with and I think the last thing the world needs is another Apple.

I'm not really a fan of this kind of hardcore rock, but it's really great to see such an ambitious project.

Rock on, Jono! :guitar:

It's fine if you want to use GNOME. If you like it and it works for you, that's great. I'm not trying to offend anyone who likes GNOME.

But Ubuntu is the figurehead of Ubuntu, not Kubuntu. Ubuntu...

The fact that the icon theme is changeable doesn't excuse the fact that first impressions are very important and the current Human icon theme makes Ubuntu look, well, old and cheap. I'd like Ubuntu...

Ubuntu's strengths:

+Mainstream...and that's not a bad thing!
+Outstanding marketing
+Big-time financial backing
+Relatively easy to use
+Uses Synaptic, arguably one of the best package...

When I talk about global warming, I'm referring to the man-made global warming alleged by Al Gore and other like-minded individuals. I guess I should have made that clear.

There are many...

Just one, very briefly. After finding out we really didn't "click" as well as I initially thought, I decided to break up with her...at which point, she demonstrated how crazy she was by stalking me,...

I guess you could call me a part-time vegetarian.

I'm currently on an alkalizing diet to try and clear up some nagging issues and part of that is cutting way back on meat. I used to eat meat every...

Now why can't our American political parties be this smart? :)

Wow, they even have organic clothing! AWESOME! :guitar:

I'm impressed. I wonder if they'll ever make some Kubuntu merchandise. In the mean time, I'll be more than happy to snatch up some Ubuntu...

OpenOffice works well enough for me. Still, I can't help but be disappointed at the lack of innovation OpenOffice has shown. Office 2007's interface is a welcome departure from the "classic"...

I've got a few.

Firefox, since it gives me full control over what I encounter on the Internet. Now if only I could use Adblock Plus on those annoying TV, radio, and newspaper ads...
