From TFA: "Windows 8, the platform natively supports vector graphics. Any images exported as SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) or XAML art will scale without getting blurry. Additionally, Windows 8 introduces automatic resource loading so developers can save three versions of images with a naming convention; images that correspond to each of the current scale percentages (100%, 140%, and 180%) load automatically to keep images crisp on high DPI. Developers can also use the CSS3 resolution media query or the system events to reload images at different scales. Windows 8 scaling to pixel density allows developers to achieve a baseline level of quality with little effort, and then tailor their images to look polished and crisp on high pixel density screens."

I wonder what the source of the article is, that the driver will be proprietary.

If schools would be a little bit more fun, if you actually learn something or maybe even learn something you're interested in the pupils might consider coming to school by choice.

Its seems I've got a similar setup to yours and no such problems and wondering why. Changing display configuration with xrandr works fine for me too. But anyway, did you try using the gui from gnome? The preview there shows where the panel will be and if its on the wrong monitor you can just drag it to the right one.

I read this one quite often and no it does not suspend if an external monitor is attached. 3.0 didn't either.

You know, you can just select which one is the primary display in the settings. Not sure what's wrong with your setup but all you describe works fine fore me. (using: Fedora 14, sandy bridge cpu/gpu 24" external monitor with desktop spawning both displays or built-in one deactivated; suspend on lid close - if no external monitor attached as well)

It's not like the intel driver developers are writing chat programs instead of doing there work or is it? If you like to complain, complain at the right topic, I don't see how any of your described problems is related to GNOME.

Think about it. In theoretical economy transparency is a condition for the market to function. So this is how it is supposed be, right?

If there is a difference between having a theoretical vulnerability based on a theoretical weakness and a working exploit then it is news.

Thanks for the link to the paper.

But there is: Y93D1 - Activity, knitting and crocheting

Obligatory: you must be new here.

For the lazy rest of us: The online version seems to be a different one for performance reasons. Here the relevant quote from TFA:

I don't have a clue about hearing aid but I live in Europe and walk regularly past a shop selling them. There is a sign outside saying you don't have to pay anything as they are covered for by the basic healthcare insurance. Maybe you got to pay some fee to get the high-tech ones - again I've got no clue.

Is a data plan that expensive in the states?

I pay 10 € for my mobile contract (free calls to land line and same provider included) and additional 10 € for my data plan (250 mb, after that its slowed down till start of the next month). That is ~ 27 USD in total. Got no unlimited SMS though - costs ~ 0.12 USD per SMS ... but I don't care as xmpp is way better anyway.

Looking at the posted specs its looks like the same cpu (AMD Phenom II X3 710) for all tests - on a different motherboard though - wonder why...

Extra Credit is a great show about games and their development. I'm into game development myself and please, everyone who is too do as I - watch their shows. Think about what they have to say.

They also got a video about microtransactions and one about the skinner box. They don't talk about moral though. So here for those interested in the topic but to lazy to RTFA. Its a video, just lean back and watch. Kinda entertaining as well.

• Microtransactions (9:10)
• Skinner Box (7:02)

Their video's are currently hard to find because they got apart from their old home "the escapist" and the videos there all just 404.

Try snaked!

Its a materialistic, foss editor with python focus from python programmers for python programmers. You have to spend a little time getting used to it but wont regret it.

And yes, it does run on linux.
