I don't belong to one, plain and simple, i am self inflicted loner. And no, you, my slash dot co readers aren't it, as i dont agree with many of you on many different topics.

But, Chromium/Chrome has plugin for remote desktop. I don't know license of plugin, but it's there, easy to install, i tested it on Linux, should also work on Linux. It's easy to use. It's not running in normal server/client model, in a sence, that server is some google service, but it does what says on the tin. Though I have my privacy concern here. Its UBER easy, mom tested. (I have gentoo, mom's laptom Linux Mint) You only need plugin, which is easy to install, and chromium on both computers. No need for registration. On one end auto generated key on another this key is accepted.(so you need to make a phone call or VOIP out)

I heard, those who refuse will get mandatory anal probe too, it's unclear, how they gonna run after it. On question about, what they think about the situation, TSA staff replied: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIVHNylH1Mk

No, not really, If I know applications i am goingt to need, i just serach them in GUI tool, and click to install, no browser messing... Most common programs are there in database. Thinderbird/firefox/gimp/vlc/etc. I was talking about GUI only solution, for most programs you don't CLI. And than, apt-get install packagename - even i remember it, and I DONT USE ubuntu. Nothing stops you from using other interface. Gnome/KDE/XFCE. Install them once, use forever. You can even use xubuntu or kubuntu. I agree, Unity sucks.

You mean it's too easy to use Linux? I mean... With ubuntu you just pop into it's centralised software database, and graphically install most needed programs from there, while in windows you have to find application in search engine, and actually navigate and download it, and it's not always as easy as it seems.

Microsoft understands they will loose dominating position forever. And why not sell Office on Linux?

companies will be forced to. After all, it takes time to copy something and that time - is advantage. Let me put it this way. Money that went or patens will go on taxes and into univercities. instead of pockets of megacorporations.

Imagine, Everyone steals everything. A lot of competition. 0 RND. The winner will be the one a) that has better prices/support/etc b) Someone wo does little things better, someone who innovates. Eitherway, customer wins.

As per earlier post - I suggest UK, they seem to handle this sort of people there.

I was wondering, how are they gonna use this water? Moon has no atmosphere, i am guessing place is HEAVILLY radiated. What this water can be used for?

He died, and its over 40 days now!

Don't remember when gnome crashed on me, but than, i don't use gnome 3. Linux is about choice. Use XFCE, noone says "NO" to you. Only problem I have with gnome 2, that is annoying, but not brain killer yet - gnome/start menu is not precached. Don't see reasons for it, i got 8 gigs o ram, and opening it, may take up to 2 seconds, but once its opened, its quick and efficient and most importantly - precached!

I mean, if you are not even paying for OS on your computer...
