The majority of the source is available, but FOSS zealots love to complain about a number of binary blobs that exist within the DD-WRT source tree. There are also special versions of DD-WRT only available by purchase.
Facebook has crowdsourced the majority of the work involved in its foreign-language translations, and as far as I know, it's not faced any legal repercussions because of it.
If I just shut down explorer.exe in XP and try to go about launching applications and trying to get the OS to do various things, I think some things will fail since the shell isn't running.
Have you tried? Sure, launching things from the Task Manager is inconvenient, but nothing really breaks because Explorer isn't running.
It may also depend on the IDE version, perhaps. I've seen this in both the student version of the full VS2010 distributed through DreamSpark and the free Visual C++ 2010 Express; perhaps the MSDN-distributed version of VS2010 includes IntelliSense components these don't.
VS2010 includes no IntelliSense for unmanaged C++ code – that is, C++ that doesn't use
It wasn't contrived and forced like in Duke Nuke'm Forever.
Given the massive amount of awesome Gearbox pulled off with Borderlands, I was really disappointed with DNF. Then again, when you're given shit to polish, you're still polishing shit. I'm still really hopeful that, given their own IP to work with, Borderlands 2 will be just as enjoyable as the first.
Windows 7 on my desktop, laptop, and netbook. Despite the historic opinion of Windows around here, 7 provides a very solid, stable, and importantly, a usable desktop environment.
Serving static content from a subdomain or just another domain (e.g., Facebook's fbcdn.net) can also improve the load times because the browser won't have any cookies associated with that domain, and therefore won't lose time sending a pile of irrelevant content along with every HTTP request.
Or you could just, y'know, scroll down to the bottom of the page and read the actual replies instead of the fakes at the top of the page...
No. When Wubi breaks, it breaks hard. This is a bad option. These days, repartitioning is point-and-click off a live CD; there's no good reason for Wubi other than laziness, which is still a bad reason because in this case, said laziness may very well come back to bite you on the ass later.
It launched instantly, and everything was amazingly fast (for someone use to the 386, where waiting for things was just normal).
The extra RAM also helped amazingly with the stability, too. I tried putting Windows 3.11 on a 166MHz Pentium with 64MB RAM years ago on a lark, and was shocked at just how performant the installation was. I mean, you couldn't really do much due to the lack of modern backported software, but what it could do, it did fantastically.
No, it was done because the NT kernel in 7 is hardly different from that in Vista, so technically, it was just a
Pardon me if I'm not understanding your setup or your problem properly, but in your Network and Sharing Center (Control Panel, Network and Internet, Network and Sharing Center), you should find a list of all connected networks with their various non-descriptive names (“Network 2”, how useful). Under the network name, it should list the “location” of the network (“Home network”, “Work network”, or “Public network”), and if you click on that label, you should be able to change the location. Helpful, or am I off by a mile?
I've had other issues with NetBeans not working properly at lower levels under OpenJDK. The best workaround I've seen for the GTK+ LaF sucking is to not use it. Activating the Nimus LaF is pretty easy and it provides a much more tolerable work environment, even if it doesn't fit the colour scheme of your desktop environment quite as nicely.
