Firstly, this is a Daily Fail story - take with a large pinch of salt. As shown in the Leveson inquiry, they're happy to run "Organisation wants to ban something" story one day, then "Our campaign has forced organisation to back down" the next - despite no such banning effort happening. In addition, they do have a "anything invented after 1900 is suspicious" agenda. Secondly, if the Red Cross actually are debating this, perhaps it's in an effort to revise International Humanitarian Law to keep up with the times, inasmuch as International Humanitarian Law actually exists.

The reason Blade Runner was a great film was precisely because they made a film using concepts from the book, but didn't slavishly follow the text (Watchmen, I'm looking at you here). Don't think the plot followed the original book closely enough for the sequel to the book to make sense as the sequel to the film.

I haven't read the book Bladerunner 2, by the way - I retract the above if it was a follow up to the film, rather than "Do Androids Dream..."

It's a pet hate of mine that the minimise/maximise buttons are beside the close window buttons on pretty much every window manager on pretty much every OS. It just seems obvious to me to have minimise/maximise on one side and close on the other so there's less risk of closing a window by accident.

It can be changed on KDE (and I see in the other replies it can be done in gnome as well), but it shouldn't need to be.

The only thing worse than X Windows: (X Windows) - X
