Comment Re:GNOME has always been fucked up. (Score 1) 314

Actually GNOME served an excellent purpose, one that arguably KDE still doesn't get - usability. GNOME 2 was developed according to a set of Human Interface Guidelines and the project strictly enforced them. As a consequence GNOME 2 was minimalist, consistent, not laden down with heaps of settings, forgiving, and sane out of the box.

Removing features that's what Gnome HIG is. I prefer to live without usability if that means what it means in Gnome.

Well, there is a "system color scheme" (or similar; in dropdown) in that Shift+F12 dialog, but how that'll work for I don't know. I certainly do not have so many gray color text in my theme, but it is present in Opera.

In order to create an account you must allow cookies (these pre-registration cookies serve as nonce values to help prevent spam).[/quote] Why would you need those? You don't. Also, when you press register button then you have an intent to register. There are way too many sites who just slap cookies as soon as you open them. Even if I don't even intended to be there longer than reading 1 page. Why would I need that cookie? There are even some which don't even work with those disabled. Now that's something.
