A federal budget does not include how you're going to raise the money to pay for it. The thing that Romney was vague about was which tax loopholes he was going to close to pay for his budget. No Democratic senator…
Have you tried the GNOME 3 "classic" desktop in Ubuntu? It's very similar to GNOME 2. So far it's worked out well for me.
I'm always intrigued by these claims that you can get something basically the same as a Mac for much cheaper. When I've investigated in the past (but in the OS X era---it seems generally accepted that Macs were sold at…
I probably should have said that _I_ don't give a damn about mobile. I spend my whole day in front of a workstation, and maybe a few minutes a day using my cell phone. But still: Do you really think that Gnome and/or…
You're right, I was being imprecise. I should have said Gnome and Canonical should stop obsessing about mobile and tablets. I guess I see more evidence of them obsessing about tablets and netbooks than about mobile. The…
This article is strange: Some parts of it are sooo right, but then some parts are sooo wrong. Yes, the Linux world should stop obsessing about mobile and tablets, since they've basically already lost that battle. (And…
That comment thread, esp. comment 148, seems to imply that Cinnamon will _not_ be part of Fedora 18. At least as I read it.
I meant a link saying that Cinnamon will be included in Fedora 18.
Could you provide a link like the one for MATE in Fedora?
Can anyone comment on what sort of software they use for collecting and analyzing this kind of data? Python+numpy? Matlab? Gnuplot? In a past life I was a neuroscientist, and although you could theoretically do…
The current obsession with tablets is maddening. Tablets are great for many things, but I still spend much of my life sitting at a workstation: a computer with a keyboard, a mouse, and (lucky me) a big-ass monitor. So,…
Anyone who recommends Wine as a solution for running all your Windows applications loses a lot of credibility with me. In my experience, Wine just doesn't work all that well---certainly not well enough for doing real…
I agree. TV/Movie money seems like a pretty good predictor of vote, but online/internet money much less so. But I'd still like to see an x-y plot with each congressperson a point, and TV/Movie money on one axis,…
How much do these provisions of the NDAA really matter? They are still trumped by the Bill of Rights, which clearly forbids indefinite detention of citizens without trial. (The Sixth Amendment, in particular.) And the…
