We still have Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal

Because tech-bubble 2.0?

Instead of making another program, I wonder what was wrong with sharing the code with gparted so that they could incorporate support for more filesystems?

TFA didn't say if that option had been explored.

Yeah, liquid nitrogen is pretty safe. Dip your hand in it, throw it at people, put it in your ice cream; all valid uses. Unless you drink it or jump in a pool of it, it's mostly harmless

Agreed. Without geany there, this comparison is not very useful. Whenever I was using Linux, I missed notepad++, until I found out about geany.

As someone who has traveled quite a bit in so-called third-world countries, I was also wondering how it is that he's getting so many phones stolen. No it's not impossible (or hard) to stop yourself from being pick-pocketed in poor countries.

If the thief wasn't threatening him with violence, he could probably solve his problem by keeping his phone in a zipped pocket when he's not using it.

Nice. I'm in the same fun situation. Having a kid got a lot more fun when they could play good games. The legos are great. We've done star wars, and indy jones, but I kind of want to get her to watch lord of the rings before we play that.

Also, ok, I know this isn't the best decision, but she's been wanting to play left-for-dead, and I can only say no so many times, so I say if her grades keep up, then ok. And similar to you, I'll tell her mom "they're zombies, so it's ok".

Yeah, having fun in the only life we'll ever have sure is a waste of time. I'd better go earn more money.

I'm sure it's all 3, and if someone worked on the code before you, then they are probably a 4th problem.

When I used Labview, it would get so messy and stringy that at some point I'd just say 'fuck it' and wrap up everything in a module (I forget what it's called). A nice looking little box with a few inputs and outputs that hides the horrible mess I'd made. Good for me, torture for anyone who used it after me. No one else could know what it was doing in there. A few years after I finished at that lab I saw that they were still using the Labview code I wrote. So yeah, I feel a bit bad.

Although, I guess I could wrap that up into your problem #3. Maybe it shouldn't have allowed me to pull such dirty tricks.

It's mostly silent *and* it's far too loud. Anything above complete silence is too loud. ok, I'll allow for some small electrical noise, but I'm really looking forward to when good computers can be passively cooled.

Amen, Amen. Based on what people in the know said, I was really starting to think that this would be some tivo-like garbage. So glad it's going to be a traditional distro. And the fact that it's Debian-based; icing on the cake.

What I want is a return to when we measured battery life in days. I know it's a lot to ask, and I know they didn't do nearly as much, but my old Nokias went a week between charges.

Having said that, I'm still glad my new phone goes 2 days and still has > 20%. I just want my week-long charge back.

That's exactly why I never buy beer or snacks for "tomorrow". Because it would just get consumed tonight. Controlling the eating means controlling the buying. At least in my case. Forcing myself to go outside every time I want fat or alcohol helps a lot.

I'm too tired and drunk to remember or look up where I read this, but;
the US didn't recognize other country's IP until it became one of the countries that could profit from IP. IP isn't some universal law inherent to humanity, it's a social construct that's good for "advanced" countries. When the US didn't fit that category, they were happy to use Europe's inventions with no compensation.

Now, I'm not saying that IP is totally bad or useless, but there's no moral or legal reason why Antigua shouldn't go this route.

Thanks, I had no idea this was possible. never really thought about it tbh. bit of a noob, I guess.
