Nothing simpler than a blank, white screen where you can't run anything, you can't do anything. It'll be very elegant though...
GNOME is heading that way slowly.

Why do you need to talk to anyone when you -know- you're just right and everyone else is wrong.
It looks like the project's being run by a bunch of angst-ridden 16 year olds with no life: "Leave me alone! No one understands me! Middle button is to complicated, clean sheet design!!! And I hate you too, mom!"

It's still the best one, even though not that commonly used.
I cannot believe people would like to use the piece of shit called GNOME, day to day. I feel the same with Windows GUIs.

GNOME should have a new marketing slogan: "proudly removing functionality you had since v1.1"

Why are you making my hands move more than necessary, are you trying to induce RSI to the rest of the world, just like Apple?

Add two single-digit numbers, larger than 7 and you will get a value nearer to 20 than 10.
I don't think maths need explaining more than this.

Once you get to the hidden level in the World Police(TM) game, you get to see the Real(TM) big boss and an epic battle ensues.

Germany's Intelligent Agency has already proved that Assad himself had nothing to do with it, although others in the chain had a finger in the button.

Of course, NSA's currently busy bugging our comms and they had no time to listen to Assad's own comms.

Reality check: By the time of the 2nd Gulf War, Saddam had no chemical, biological or nuclear weapons.

Newsflash: The UN Weapons inspectors don't have any say on who is responsible, they only have a say on IF the weapons are used, and they were.

The problem with such logic is, well, you know, it's a slippery slope to behaving like an idiot.

There is no such slippery slope. If it's perfectly OK to kill hundreds of thousands using guns, tanks, planes and artillery, then it's OK to do the same using other methods.

The right answer is, it is not OK to kill hundreds of thousands of people. The western powers should have got involved with Syria as a peace keeping force ages ago and they never had the spine to do so and right now they just look like hypocrites and what's they are.

There is a good side on this civil war and that's the one who protects the civilians from being attacked from either side's weapons, like an UN peace troops... Hang on, Neither US nor Russia want to send their troops in but they're perfectly OK for everyone else to get killed. Yeah, you're right, there's no good side on this war, especially Russia and US.

What do you mean Israel is not that far away. They share a border and Israel has occupied a large chunk of land from Syria called "Golan Heights" and settling it with Israeli nationals for decades.

Ah, the Homecoming, the horrible Mormon propaganda dressed up as SF. I hope one day the technology to scrub those stupid novels out of my mind will arrive.

There's nothing that ruins a good book like a movie. Before you had all you can imagine, after, you're stuck with the crappy CGI visuals the director and the CGI artist came up with. I cannot think a single book where my imagination was trumped by the movie adaptation.

Books have the best budget for visualisations: your brain & imagination.

OTOH, if the people reading the books lack imagination, well, why are they wasting time reading SF/F?

Just because you don't know how to read doesn't mean your ignorance is acceptable.
