The KHTML library (as wrapped by KFM) was surprisingly usable back in the day on Linux. But who'da thunk it'd turn into one of the most important pieces of code in the world? Congrats to all involved.

Should you ever find yourself in Portland Oregon, please visit 'Ground Kontrol'. An entire floor of nothing but pinball games, quite frequently at capacity.

The great majority of the pirated creative suite installs I see are virtually never used. It appears to be more of a status behavior than anything else. If you have real work to do and you want to be "legit", you have one of the many superi

Hrm, let's perform an in situ experiment! Right now, get on the horn with the people in your world and announce that you're actually gay/straight, whichever is different than currently. Then live accordingly for a few years so we can see wh

Fine, I'll yield the semantic argument. "Coming out" in the context of sexuality typically refers to homosexuals publicly expressing their preference for the first time and adjusting their public identity to match. I was attacking the idea

Does that pressure come at the business end of a bat? Have you ever known someone had their face smashed in for calling someone a homo or for disliking billboards? The drive to not be literally exterminated is a powerful one, so you can be

Your sexuality doesn't come in air-quotes, and you're teetering dangerously close to the word "choice" in a topic where no such thing exists. Your sexuality informs and alters 100% of your life.

Uneducated guess: something didn't get logged into GCRM properly and the record of the repair was blitzed. It sat in back for a few days with nobody questioning it since it's among dozens of other machines. Then you showed up and a panic e

That was effortlessly the worst keynote I have ever sat through, with the added bonus of a grotesque "gamer babe" interlude that saw a married 49 year old CEO pretending to hit on a model at a tiki bar. Rancid 1993 puke. All that said, thei

The marketing shows it powered by a full Intel Core-series chip, and I haven't heard of anyone successfully doing a fan-free design with anything in that family. The default HDD will be a physical HDD. A SSD is optional, at least according

I don't even know how to process this. It's 17.8 pounds with a 2 hr battery life. It runs Windows 8, but then also runs a custom UI on top when flat, but then also runs Bluestack Android apps. And it's $1700 and comes with a HDD. The optio
