I live in Guatemala, and above telco's and cableco's, and even banks, i think that dealing with visa procedures (before leaving) from other countries (specially US and UK because of the lack of visa waiver programs) is just an expensive inconvenience.

Then comes the time where you have to deal with immigration officials, and a second screening plus other procedures upon arrival, which seem pretty much standard in cases where: you are just changing an international flight, or arrive at your destination. I would hope others do not have to go through this as much as i do... or i just may have to stop making terrorist jokes at airports perhaps? :)

i have to say that i like kde3.5 better than 4.x because of the functionality of certain applications. for example, kopete (kde4 version) just doesn't work as friendly as k3.5. and on the other hand, amarok [latest] for example just doesnt run (at least on my set up) on 3.5. So yeah, i feel a bit hurtful because i feel forced to use kde4. BUT! that's just a small inconvenience in exchange on what has been a wonderful experience since 2007. lll! (long live linux!)

can't we all just get along? think of the children!

oh wow, thanks for the link, i will have to play with this too D: you insensitive clod! :)
