Stop sitting on your phone, fatass! :P

To me, the fact that I don't know who they are tells me all I need to know about how successful they've been at launches...

Aside from it's usefulness, my computer is my "toy". Specifically, working on my pet project (MSS Code Factory) brings me great entertainment value, a mental challenge, and a lot of fun.

Who needs bits of plastic when you have a thinking brain and a computer to play with?

You mean, the entire continent?

Angry? No. I just think it's a crap UI, so I stick with KDE on Linux boxen.

I guess they want to make it illegal to protect yourself and your data from intruders and thieves.

Zieg Heil, Mein Fuhrer!

Nice theory, but you're assuming the dashboard is only as big as the screen. That's a very poor assumption, especially if the user is on a 720p display. As to printing out the web page, I've had no end of problems printing out dynamically-generated pages over the years.

Reports can be saved. You can't save your current view of a dashboard.

If you don't let me not employ Americans in America, then I'm going to go not employ them outside of America!

Then why bother capitulating to them?

The comment on "multi-touch" tells me all I need to know about this release: it's targetted at touch screens.

Not "normal" desktops.

No wonder Gnome 3 sucks so heinously. It's the Linux version of Windows 8.

Was I the only one who, upon seeing the title, immediately opened all the links and did a CTRL+F for "potato"?

"You have already reached your quota for non-Canadian content. We now present reruns of 'The Beachcombers' whether you like it or not."

There must be a lot of overly sensitive Gnome developers here today. I crack wise about how I feel about Gnome 3, and that's "flamebait" because the poor nancy-boys can't handle the fact that their GUI *does* suck farts off dead chickens in August. And if you've ever smelt a rotting dead chicken in the August heat, you'd know just how vile and revolting that description is.

And if you've ever tried to use Gnome 3, you know how accurate that description is.

Communications from planetary surfaces, anyone?
