Yeah, the specific question was in this specific post.

http://slashdot.org/comments.p...

The question being how to deal with inheritance for more than one partner.

So far your contribution has been to tell me Canada dealt with it just fine. By not allowing more than one partner! lolololitrolu etc.

Since you seem to have a habit of grabbing the wrong end of the stick very hard and never backing down, I look forwards to you rationalising how you made any contribution to the conversation whatsoever.

For the record, Windows Phone is reasonably popular in some parts of the world. For example, in India, it's somewhere around 10% (based on sales share there the last few years, and on having just spent a couple weeks in India). As a reminder, there are a *lot* of Indians (though many are too poor to afford a smartphone, even the super-cheap WP8 and Android models popular there).

I'm from Seattle, so Windows phones aren't really that rare around here. I've also seen them in France and, of course, Finland, when I was last there. I only rarely see them in California or elsewhere in the US, though.

On the other hand, when I was in Indonesia last year, there wasn't a single Windows Phone in sight, but I think Blackberries outnumbered iPhones. Android beat both, but it was weird seeing a platform that's a rounding error in the US in second place.

An anonymous reader writes: Sourceforge staff took over the account of the GIMP-for-Windows maintainer claiming it was abandoned and used this opportunity to wrap the installer in crapware. Quoting Ars:

SourceForge, the code repository site owned by Slashdot Media, has apparently seized control of the account hosting GIMP for Windows on the service, according to e-mails and discussions amongst members of the GIMP community—locking out GIMP's lead Windows developer. And now anyone downloading the Windows version of the open source image editing tool from SourceForge gets the software wrapped in an installer replete with advertisements.
