Welcome to 'murica. Where no-one gives trully a shit about anyone. ;)

>I don't know if the quality of the slides is really any better in the native viewer.

They can be with

% mgp -D <dir> -E png <mgpfile>

:)

Defaults to jpg though.

So, it's gonna be apache all over again. Where they maintained their own fork, with no security patches applied.

Or perhaps like OpenSSH, where a linux user is forced to `./configure && make && make install'.

I'm trusting your opinion, after careful reviewing of all your commits. :)

> We as developers in the Open Source community should be ashamed people are still using Vim to write LaTeX in Bash running on terminal emulators.

I agree. Bash sucks. ;)

There's also apropos(1). :)

Well, the article does not talk about publishers, does it? As my comment, it speaks about ad business.

I would not have any problem with a nice banner, clickable, possibly surrounded by a color that does not make me want to pull out my eyes with a fork after having 4 seisures and 2 strokes.

I do though have a problem, when a 3rd party tries to track everyone, and possibly without the publishers you're speaking of know anything about what's running on his site (they do not care, why should I?).

What I would prefer publishers to do: write something useful and meaningful, and make users come back because of your content. Be it a book, a fanfic, a blog with random thoughts, poetry, etc.

People seem to forget that web is about meaningful content.

This is how you attract users.

And some last lines while we're at it. Why is it always the question "if we [publishers] stop using ads, what'll we do"? I seriously do not care. I do not HAVE to care. Same goes for any user. It's his job to find a way (hint: meaningful content) to get revenue. He's the boss after all, right? ;)

Definitely a solution. For many years web sucked. Still sucks (and much more).

I personally, do not care for any company that stores cookies on >my< system without my permission.

And if you and many more were interested in 'why' there are some strange ports, you'd get your answer. Search and you might be surprised.

It's easy to just say "hur, they be stupid to port on vax/macppc/sparc/whatever". Do your homework.

> Then you can press escape [..]

Don't forget Ctrl-[ instead of Esc. I find that more quick, especially with Ctrl in place of CapsLk. :)

Do not act like sheep perhaps?

NSA/etc has been fucking with people's rights for so long and I'm surprised that their main building is not yet burned down.

Someone one time said "[..] by the people, for the people [..]".

If you think that your responsibility begins and ends with a simple vote, you're far away from reality. ;)

It had me the first time I noticed support for porn.

> [..]and HTML email never progressed beyond 1997.

Thank christian God, Allah, Osiris and Buddha all at the same time.

Something more horrible than HTML emails would be HTML emails with jquery and more useless stuff.

As Piskvorrr said, any web browser 'may' be considered 'unsafe'.

That being said, I consider parents who do not educate their children less safe than anything else.

While we're at it, remove FreeBSD logo, no BLACK chocolate and the world will become a better place.

Oh, and please remove linux kernel, because I'm getting results with `grep "fuck"`.

Sometimes I feel offended with the people who feel offended. ;)

Too drunk to (quit)?

> 1) It's a search box. Stuff not typed in the search box never leaves the machine (unless you count things that do by design, such as web browsers and email, obviously).

Imagine the scenario where you >search< in a >box< (term) with `grep -inr "pattern" /random/path` and you get results like:

  ./random/path/file pattern
  ./random/path/file2 pattern
  hxxp://www.amazon.com/product-with-pattern-name

Nice, right? You performed a search. Why not go public? Hell, why not go over plain text?

Take it even further. Visit amazon or c@n0nical's site and be welcomed with your hostname. Great, eh? And while you're at it, send all patterns to NSA as well, because, ummm, it's a "search box".

Do you still think that this is not a privacy violation?

C@n0nical has become a pimp.

Seems that many people erased POSIX and privacy from their dictionary.

> Guess why Apple Writer was so popular in 1979 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Writer), in spite of its many limitations?

Guess why so many people still use Vi(m) and not Apple Writer.

Proposal: when talking to a friend in skype or messaging through facebook, add the following keywords: "assassination", "president", "white house", "yomama" and "NSA can suck it".

Web has become a joke.

"Right click and save as" is the last thing to go away imo.

There are a LOT of things that need to go away first (to name a few: crappy development, obligatory js to view content, AWFUL prefixes (-o-, -webkit-, -whatever-) and of course browsers that suck your RAM like there's no tomorrow (yes, I'm talking about firefox and chrom{e,ium})).

But again, that's just me. :)
