I couldn't find the other one. All I could find was "the Daily Mail reported".

Maybe HTC was an attempt by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cher_Wang to rebrand it.
You post should be reworded:
Attention all linux users: This is the solution you have been looking for!
I installed it 10 minutes after seeing your post. This is what you have been looking for if you want a linux workstation again. I've been using XFCE4 for a year or so. Mate worked correctly on top of ubuntu 12.04. It has the polish that Andy Hertzfeld put into nautlius. The original look and feel is back. It's really excellent. This is the bar to start from.
Well, you see Willard... In this war, things get confused out there, power, ideals, the old morality, practical military necessity. But out there with these natives it must be a temptation to be god. Because there's a conflict in every human heart, between the rational and the irrational, between good and evil. And good does not always triumph. Sometimes the dark side overcomes what Lincoln called the better angels of our nature. Every man has got a breaking point. You and I have one. Walter Kurtz has reached his. And very obviously, he has gone insane.
This is a shameless self promotion!
DigitalOcean.com offers free bandwidth.
You could just spin up a Droplet (virtual server) on http://digitalocean.com/ and not have any worries about the banwidth transfer as we provide free bandwidth.
The reason we're able to offer this is we don't allow adult content or users to run their own CDN but you're in the clear on both accounts.
Depending on the number of cores and RAM you need this would run you probably $100-150/mo.
Thanks!

> Google was already exposed last year by Chinese hackers.
Yes! We are all very thankful to those hackers for exposing the secret agreements between Google and the Government that provide access to various email accounts. It is an important fundamental right as citizens to be aware of the workings of our governments. When these governments are corrupted by corporate influence there is no turning back. That is why, I hope all of us will do the right thing now. For the sake of our internet, and our way of life, I suggest we get the rest of us after them. In peace and freedom from fear, and in true health, through the purity and essence of our natural fluids.
They didn't just transfer to one of the godaddy resellers did they? voxel.net is just a godaddy reseller. I'll assume the best and the records just didn't update yet.

There seems to be some sort of scorched earth policy with regards to prior behavior. It's as if the rewrite to version 3 was really: "You are no longer allowed to have things look or work they way you want". If this new rewrite is so fancy and powerful, then why can't it trivially emulate the old look and feel?
The GNOME user interface has been very good since around 2000. (Nautilus was designed by Hertzfeld.) This "forward" looking direction feels like windowmaker. I think that GNOME should treat the UI much like kernel developers treat kernel interfaces. They are public interfaces that have to be supported for a long time.
As another slashdot old timer, I agree that I use apt-get for most everything. I'm a software developer, so there are times that I get packages from upstream sources (via git,svn,etc). However, this is very unlikely for a normal user. Everything is already packaged in the repositories.
That's quite an assumption.
> printing our way out of debt
That's exactly what should have been done long ago. This endless borrowing is what got us into this mess in the first place.
The belief that what comes in must come out equally is a totally failed concept. It hasn't been true for 50 years. It was probably never true -- Kings would go to war to loot other people's money. We should stop pretending it's going to change. Printing the money will finally end this nonsense. Sure, if we print too much it'll deflate the dollar, so don't be stupid about it. Either way it's better than to stupidly keep borrowing exponentially growing amounts.
Interesting, but it seems you are searching and writing in English. If slashdot was in Mandarin, would it then get blocked?
I hope not at this point. Chrome laptops are shipping and other devices that come with linux natively are finally available. Microsft is even managing to swindle HTC for $5 for every Android shipped (what the hell HTC?).
It's about time that we buy pure Linux laptops that don't quietly enrich microsoft. For example: the new chrome laptops (just got my samsung today).
Please find it -- it doesn't seem to exist anywhere on earth. I remember watching it live on TV, but I don't remember seeing anyone get run over by a tank.
