scientes"On the political front, it is a fairly safe bet that the mobile patent wars will get worse. The participants in this battle appear to be tooling up for an extensive and protracted fight, and there seems to be a steady supply of new companies (British Telecom, for example) piling on in the hope of gaining a piece of the pie for themselves. Things may reach a point where it becomes impossible to market handsets or tablets in some parts of theJan 14 00:15
scientes world. One could hope that a paralyzed mobile market would suggest to lawmakers that the patent system is broken, and that those lawmakers would respond by reforming said system. Alas, a more likely outcome (though not in 2012) is the formation of a patent pool under strong "encouragement" by governments that ends the fights and establishes the positions of a small number of large players at the expense of new entrants. How free software wiJan 14 00:15

MinceRso basically your argument is "XFCE sucks because i can't turn my system into a crash parade using kwin or compiz"Jan 14 22:12

MinceRit also is horribly glitchy if you turn off compositingJan 14 22:13
MinceRand it can't render the root window in compositing mode if plasma-desktop isn't running, which is even less stable than kwinJan 14 22:14

schestowitzbroken octave packageJan 14 22:18
schestowitzso then I thought about virtualising mint 10 under itJan 14 22:18
DaemonFCthere's been a couple of upstream releases of RPM since thenJan 14 22:18
schestowitzbut the rpm of virtualbox didn't workJan 14 22:18
DaemonFCone of the biggest things to land recently is all RPMs in Fedora use XZ compressionJan 14 22:18
DaemonFCVirtualBox is a kmodJan 14 22:19
DaemonFCthere's no telling what it will cause Linux to doJan 14 22:19
DaemonFCit's all out of treeJan 14 22:19
DaemonFCschestowitz: Having VirtualBox installed taints your kernelJan 14 22:22
DaemonFCand invalidates all your kernel panic and oops reportsJan 14 22:22
DaemonFCbasically, if anything you want to install in Fedora calls itself an akmod or a kmod, you should stop and find out WHY before you install itJan 14 22:23
DaemonFCif it's not part of the kernel, there's probably a reasonJan 14 22:23
DaemonFCthey split off the staging drivers into a kmod for exampleJan 14 22:24
DaemonFCand proprietary drivers are a kmod in RPM FusionJan 14 22:24
DaemonFCthey all taint the kernel tooJan 14 22:24
DaemonFCDebian and Ubuntu build the staging drivers, all of them, and include them in the kernel package without warningJan 14 22:25
DaemonFCthen fail to warn you about proprietary drivers tooJan 14 22:25
DaemonFCUbuntu considers drivers that crash your system, open up security holes, and exhibit strange bugs a "feature"Jan 14 22:26
DaemonFCusually, stuff in staging is there because it's brokenJan 14 22:26

MinceRmust be greatJan 14 23:43
DaemonFCI found out how to exploit their level up system a little bitJan 14 23:43
DaemonFCeach structure on an enemy base that you destroy, you gain experience pointsJan 14 23:43
DaemonFCso I order my units to only attack resource dumps, command and control centers, and only stop to destroy non critical buildings and enemy units that get in their wayJan 14 23:44
DaemonFCthe more non-critical units you destroy, the faster you level upJan 14 23:44
DaemonFCover time I've probably managed to avoid leveling up 5-6 times, so I am facing other players that don't have units that are a match for mine or my base defense networkJan 14 23:45
DaemonFCB-)Jan 14 23:45
DaemonFCMinceR: It kind of takes some of the fun out of the game thoughJan 14 23:46
DaemonFCother players assume they are a match for my base and then their units usually end up destroyed within 30 seconds of initiating their attackJan 14 23:46
DaemonFCI've concentrated on a better defense network than offensive unitsJan 14 23:47
DaemonFCso I don't have mega tanks, but my base defense network can easily defend my base against several enemy mega tanksJan 14 23:47
