Good night, sweet prince.

...Pirate Bay acquires Warner Bros.

The issue of who is allowed to use which stall can easily be settled by a swordfight.

Tons of them. Another thing I noticed was that whenever I clicked something in that horrible Dolphin manager, Amarok would start up and start playing music for no good reason. I never got used to not being able to have icons on the desktop and in general, it was just very slow. But anyway, I'm not trying to bring KDE down here. I'm sure it's very good. All I'm saying is that it's not for me. I have been using Linux for a few years now and I'm sure that each of those issues could have had easy fixes. I'm just lazy, I suppose. And I'm not one for eye candy. Thus, the switch to XFCE was, for me, the smart thing to do.

Because even though it lacks all the "functionality" and the shiny handles and levers, it does not frustrate me. Furthermore, I did not _need_ the clocks to reside on the desktop. I decided to try to use them because they were there. I check iGoogle every time I focus the Firefox window anyway. So having the clocks there instead of on the desktop makes them more useable.

I realized that pretty soon. So I reluctantly switched back to Gnome. Then, when 4.2 was released, I thought I'd try it out again. Sure enough, my opinion did not change. I'm from India and I live in Edinburgh. I thought it would be nice to have clocks displaying the two different time zones on KDE's "desktop". When I went through the list of time zones, I was utterly shocked to find that there wasn't even one for any city in India. On the contrary there were some really stupid time zones in there which I'm quite sure 99% of users will never use. Of course, I could have filed a bug report or looked deeper into the matter. But, my laziness coupled with this very bad experience of basic functionality just drove me to give up on KDE once and for all. That's when I switched to XFCE and I haven't looked back since. How did I solve my clock problem? I just added a little widget on my google.com/ig page which displays the two time zones that I need without any hassle.

I used Gnome for 3 years or so after which all the constant changing got the better of me. I switched to KDE but found it to be close to unuseable (OK - I started using KDE just when that horrible 4.0 version came out). Then I found what I was looking for - XFCE. It has everything I need, does not hog resources with all the unnecessary bells and whistles and just works. I don't think I'll switch to anything else in the near future unless I decide to go xmonad.

What an overpriced piece of rubbish. This bag belongs in the Bihn-liner. What the heck is wrong with this guy? Thanks to this idiotic post, I am never, ever going to even remotely consider buying a Bihn bag. What kind of a moron is unable to transfer his laptop from his bag to the security bin without dropping it? I use this (http://www.amazon.co.uk/TRUST-BG-4500P-Laptop-Backpack-Bag/dp/B00029CYSA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1236972365&sr=8-3) and here's a review I wrote about it: "IT WORKS".

Too late. Pink Floyd's already done the flying pig thing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Floyd_pigs#Animals).

Ever seen the traffic in India, pal?

Does this mean that the Europa mission goes down the drain now? Will they try to launch a simplified version of this CO2 monitor in the future? Or will they just "move on"?

Neither should the Oscar story.

The article seems to suggest that this device is capable of being manufactured (reasonably) cheaply. I don't see the problem in having several backups of your backup. That way, no matter how small this thing is, making redundancies should not cost an arm and a leg.
