"wants" are infinite.
Yup. If I could, I'd have an infinite number of cars, and an infinite number of computers, in a house with an infinite amount of space.
Or not.
What a careless comment. Many were terminated for much less. He's now a target of US regime.
If by "he" you mean "the European Union's digital agenda chief", if the US government looks for a "he", then Ms. Kroes is safe.
Since names can be so political and controversial, I propose that we just simply use a numerical address.
Fits right in with ICANN, "Numbers" being what the second "N" stands for.
The inventor of the computer is actually John Atanasoff: http://www.computerhistory.org...
He claimed, successfully, the title
Were those who awarded him the title aware of the Zuse Z3 (it's two items above the ABC item on the page whose URL you cited (note: HTML, despite being a British rather than an all-American invention, isn't that hard to use, and if you use it when posting to
When I see the complaints against it by China, Russia, the EU, and so on, they're always advocating more restrictions, protection of their interests. They want the ability to blacklist sites that talk about their politicians, that discuss unfavorable religions or religious rights, that cover alternative lifestyles such as gay or transgender, and so on. They want to do it without arbitration, automatically.
So when did the EU (as opposed to China or Russia) advocate those things and indicate that it wants those abilities?
I'll admit Slashdot has serious balls to link to a news site that just got its own redesign, with the exact response that this site's beta got (and deserved just as much).
No, it deserved it more. Next to nbcnews.com, beta.slashdot.org is a masterpiece of clean Web design. (Hell, the new nbcnews.com makes buzzfeed.com look not too bad.)
The main thing we want is a site that doesn't look old and stale, because that will slowly drive readers and contributors away.
1924 called, it wants its idea back. At least cars aren't getting their styling tweaked every year any more.
(Beta is, to be fair, not the utter complete piece of shit that, say, the current version of nbcnews.com is; I sincerely hope everybody responsible for that either learns a lesson from this or never finds employment in anything even vaguely related to website design again. But that's setting the bar spectacularly low.)
EVERYONE HATES LOAD MORE COMMENTS. either autoload them as you scroll down, or better yet just fucking load them to begin with.

I kind of feel as though the walls are closing in on my a bit on the left and right. why so little text and so much empty space?

How about collapsing some of these posts? Commenters should hook us in with a decent title, and that is all we should see until we click it. otherwise, we just CONSUME page space for no good reason, and it makes the conversation harder to follow.

A DE isn't a thing, it's a application providing a layer of crap on top of your WM.
An application is a "thing".
And a DE isn't an application, it's a combination of a toolkit library or libraries, a window manager on systems where you have a "window manager" program (e.g., systems with an X11-based GUI), some applications (file managers, etc.), and various other utilities implementing other "global" parts of the environment (such as a taskbar). You don't, for example, get KDE merely by running KWin as your window manager (assuming it can run on a system with no other KDE components than Qt and some KDE libraries).
Just hit up SlashBI.
The goggles, they do nothing!
#3803. You've been at slashdot for more than a while. What is your view of beta Slashdot?
From what I've read here, my view is "I'd like to avoid it if at all possible". If I can temporarily try it, and revert (and complain) if it really sucks, I might try it just to make sure they haven't "improved" it as much as, say, nbcnews.com has "improved" recently.
Tried it. It hasn't "improved" quite to the the extent of nbcnews.com, but it's definitely an "improvement" in that sense. (More shiny, less useful; too many big pictures. I'm waiting for headlines like "15 ways to improve your

I think it's funny how they mock the N. Korean government for presenting Kim Il Sung as a god and yet they are all too happy with their year 2014 that pushes some ordinary human being, who may not have even existed
...and who, if he did exist, was born a few more than 2,014 years ago in any case.
Looks like someone confused an OS with a WindowManager again.

Life is a healthy respect for mother nature laced with greed.
