The better supermarket down the road has loads of craft cheeses that are fantastic, from Feta to English Cheddar, yummy Stilton, etc.
Craft cheeses or Kraft cheeses?

What's wrong with that?
The problem is that the version number is something that has semantic relevance to most users, and the vast majority of programs don't think of version 1.0 as 'perfection', they think of it as (usually) the first reasonably feature-full, stable, release. Giving a program a version of 1 makes it sound like a beta or worse, which gives at least some users the impression that it may not be stable or acceptably solid.
Also remember to follow that up by asking for a Glesga kiss - I guarantee it'll really endear you to them.
You, sir, have had a VERY different childhood to me.
More like 'expunge evil'.
Watt exactly do you mean by that?
Heh, this story could almost have written by me. It's the reason I held out so long on getting an LCD instead, and why I have my beloved Samsung CRT sitting still in the loft.
I was actually quite surprised that ZSNES at 640x480 fullscreen mode, whilst there is a small noticeable interpolation effect, looked quite good. Perfectly playable once you have the graphics being displayed... I almost forget I'm not on a CRT.
What has been a problem, though, is fast movement. This seems to be a problem inherent to LCDs.
By the way, I'm using an NEC MultiSync EA191M.
On the other hand, the list of societies that have been irreparably damaged by westerners who thought they knew better trying to 'civilise the barbarians' is long.
Yeah. Thank god Westerners didn't go into South Africa, Rhodesia, Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, India, North America, Mexico, or Honk Kong. Those places are much better off right now, not having had our terrible influence.
I condemn all software patents.
Are you seriously saying that the identity of anyone who calls someone names on the internet should be revealed by force of law?
Yeah, but you can't pick it up and maintain it, thereby improving CPAN. You have to rename it and upload it as something else, leaving an orphaned, old, unmaintained module lying around for people to find.
And every Perl module I've pulled from CPAN has been well documented.
What packages have you pulled in from CPAN? As much as I like Perl and as painful as this is to say, CPAN is a fucking abomination. There is basically zero quality control, anyone can put any module up they want and use any namespace. They don't have to offer ANY documentation and if they go AWOL and stop maintaining the module, it just stays there, festering.
