Thanks! Wish they would have labeled it something better than "Media Stream" though in hindsight it makes sense.
I'm ready for the next landing.

A video stream of just showing the main room and the audio from it would have been great. Having her cut in during the interesting parts was seriously annoying. They should have had two streams.
I'm sure all their algorithms have a good laugh at how boring my life is.
"Kill Decision" by Daniel Suarez is about the possibility that drones will be developed as more of an autonomous vehicle. And humans won't be required to authorize the strike.
One of the best parts of that movie is how the tire changes happen -- at full speed and the old tire is ejected off to the side.
Did you read the post?
"The flyer featuring side-by-side mugshots of Matthew Swaye and Christina Gonzalez and the couple's home address was taped to a podium outside a public hearing room..."
So the cops publicly posted the photos and HOME ADDRESS of these people.
The cops definitely get upset if you post THEIR pics and home addresses.
Another vote for Harry Dresden, Murph and Mouse.
The other thing I liked about shell scripts doing this was that it was easy to take them from one computer to another. Is there a simple way to exact a KDE configuration into something that can be applied to another "newly installed" computer with possibly a newer version of KDE? i.e., not just copying the old
And what I use(d) it for was placing several windows. KDE4 has the ability to save certain setups, but they are a pain to use and update (not stored in a place that is easy to edit, hard to persist over upgrades, etc).
Working on several different projects with differing window requirements (terminal and others) was easy as I had shell scripts that could startup each window (across multiple screens) in the proper directories, running certain programs, open edits, all with set window sizes and at the locations I wanted on the screens. And when I wanted to change a layout I could just go tweak the script.
And I had this across multiple X screens (which KDE4 did away with). I live with Twinview now for 2 monitors, but hard to go beyond that.
KDE would be more usable for us developers if the KDELibs crew would (re)implement the basic --geometry command line feature. Removed in KDE 4, available everywhere else. It has been listed as a bug since the release of KDE 4.

Please vote for this and maybe the KDE developers will take notice.
Vote for a command line feature from KDE 3 (and X in general) that was never implemented in KDE 4 -- "--geometry"
Now maybe there is a chance I can get ICS on my Moto droid 3. Admittedly the Droid 3 only had a lifespan of 6 months. But it would be nice if Moto actually supported it.
The ability to pass geometry information to KDE apps via the command line has been broken for 3.5 years (well, a bug was filed that long ago). So the developers aren't too interested in fixing basic functionality!

This doesn't work. How does one do this (so a simple script can pop up several windows in fixed locations with fixed sizes)
