windows 2000 was supposed to be what we look back at xp as being, but didn't sell as well as expected. thus winme was thrown in to fill in the gap while the nt-based consumer/enterprise combined os was redone and became xp.

the main issue with 2000 was hardware support. by the time xp came out the driver list for 2000 had increased (much like vista->win7 but in terms of outright support rather than stability)

i used to use litestep all the time when i used windows regularly. hated it at first but eventually got it set up how i wanted and hate using explorer to this day (yes, even on win7)

the logic falls down, however, when you note that something that cannot change cannot create. to create implies action and action implies changing of state.

if 'god' cannot change (by your logic) then he/she/it cannot have created the universe, which brings the same problems as 2 and 3.

Couldn't have said it better. The number of people i've heard say 'but it makes no sense that the universe just appeared' but are happy to just accept that some god presence can do exactly the same thing they just dismissed as nonsense astounds me.

To me it is the equivalent of answering 'but how does....' with 'magic'.

regenesis was brilliant. i thought the last series fell away a little, but still one of the best shows of it's kind

not sure if it is just the debian/ubuntu 64 bit package but it failed to install with an error that /usr/lib/kde4 was not found. as i'm not running it, it was not surprising it was missing, but i had to create the directory for the package to install properly. obviously this can be worked around by manually extracting the tar and working from that, but i prefer using the deb packages.

hope this helps someone.

yeah, i would be. it is that rare an occurrence that i would be shocked and impressed. oh you were trolling, sorry.

yeah, it is a shame. i was just thinking the other day 'what a shame osgeld dropped ubuntu around v9'.

you know, you could always either 'pick it back up' if it 'will help a bunch'...

Oh, I see! Then I guess everything is wrapped up in a nice neat package! ...

Really, I mean that. Sorry if it SOUNDED sarcastic.

i thought jquery mobile was the jquery of mobile? :P
