I have small hands and my Galaxy S2 is very easy to use one handed. I must be doing something wrong to be able to use the phone that is the wrong width for the human hand so easily.

Too bad this didn't happen with Blizzard after Diablo 3 as well. Fuck this always-online NWO bullshit.

Yep, I've successfully run Skyrim and New Vegas, but NV is a bit slow and Skyrim is fine at first but quickly turns into a slideshow, as compared to my Win 7 partition where it's flawless :/ Mind you, I did it out of the box (it's amazing it worked just like that) so it could simply need some extra config. I'll give PlayOnLinux a shot.

Definitely agreed. The biggest thing about Steam going to Linux is the exposure for the platform and the interest it generates. This may help to spur on WINE development even more. When I can play Skyrim, New Vegas and Rocksmith flawlessly in WINE I'm not looking back.

My Model M doesn't have a Windows key, you insensitive clod!

Gorillas have far larger canines than we do. They don't eat meat. They use them for crunching bamboo and piercing fruit.

My favourite Arch feature is the AUR (Arch User Repository) where anyone can submit their own packages which other uses can then install.

Because of the AUR, Arch is more likely to have a package for some given obscure application that Debian would be missing. Also, these packages are kept up to date to a greater extent than you'll see on Debian. Finally they're all in one place where as you don't have to constantly add repositories to your package manager's repo list.

You're new here aren't you?

FTFY

You just mentioned apple as being the reason why flash won't be able to survive.

Some (all?) videos with ads still require flash unfortunately.

I like the part where you tell us what they

It is an alternative to your normal trash, not a replacement. You have to explicitly drag a file in there that you wish to be deleted and shared.

Yeah I get that, but IMO a single framework that I can learn (Qt/kde) that allows me to build desktop and mobile apps is quite compelling. And qt is a good framework. It's some of the best competition out there for .NET so I want to see it succeed.

Also, recently, kde4 has become a good desktop environment. It has come a long way and is completely usable in it's current form.. assuming of course that you ignore the utter bullshit which is nepomuk and striggi.. :)
