The possibility, of course. But look around, there are so many people who claim to have supernatural abilities, yet none of them has ever been able to demonstrate it under controlled conditions like at James Randi's TV show. So when someone

What I like most about this article: > Many people are never the same, Moody says. They abandon careers that were focused on money or power for more altruistic pursuits. Yet every single link in the article leads to a book that is sold

Well, I haven't really tried it with a real color calibrator, but I have heard from someone who has used that argyllcms stuff successfully. Should be pretty straightforward to use. I don't really know how it is related, but there is dispc

As I said, with xf86-input-synaptics I can't complain about my notebooks touchpad. Two finger scroll is ok in both directions. I don't really need the "genius" of mac touchpads as tapping on the touchpad will be a "left click", a two finger

I haven't used Mac Touchpads much yet, but every time I do use one the acceleration feels extremely weird. On my laptop the touchpad does pretty much behave how I expect it to behave. Also, a Netbook I bought 2008 or so had two-finger scrol

Actually I'm an Archlinux fan but I haven't yet encountered any software targeted at ubuntu that wouldn't work on archlinux too (with some work from repackagers, but as a company you don't have to do it because people who want to use it on

Hm. I had version 1.6 or so installed so I headed over to https://www.dropbox.com/install As usual with linux they provide downloads like "dropbox_1.4.0_amd64.deb". So I went to the windows and mac os download page to look at what version

Are you talking about the default synaptics driver or have you tried xf86-input-mtrack-git? There's something in the wiki but I have no mac, so I don't know what I'm talking about: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/MacBook#Touchpad

That's a false dilemma. Your choices: 1. Slight inconvenience 2. Strong inconvenience 3. Giving away "content" for free I propose 4.: No inconvenience for the users, charge as you wish and simply sue the people making money illegally off

By the way: Two of the games shown are Red Eclipse and Supertuxkart, both open source and - of course - run on linux. While SuperTuxKart is not that exciting, Red Eclipse is quite fun.

But I still don't understand the immediate outrage. I would much prefer an approach like this: 1. Test google maps on the mobile ie. Notice it runs acceptable. 2. Perhaps publicly, ask google why they have the redirect when it actually work

What's the big problem? Someone needs to write an X backend for the android system and then you should be able to run most libraries (compiled for x86) in a chroot or something.
