    Re: Anyone know how to use Inkscape?

    I use it, there is a learning curve, sure,
    but that is true for any complex enough

    Good, make sure that you pull the wired network too and switch to wireless for even more security.

    Poll: Re: Is open source working?

    Quoting the mission statement of a commercial company as a description of their goals, is akin to watching commercials to get a balanced review of a product.

    Poll: Re: Is open source working?

    You seem to ask a question about social media under an open source header.
    Even so, your questions are kind of vague;
    to be working or not working you have to state goals,
    to do or not do as...

  12. Re: Ubuntu sort arrows - when will they fix this??

    I've always thought the arrows were stupid, no matter os, because
    in the v arrow would signify a normal top to bottom sorting of
    the list, which would mean different things for what could be
    seen...
  13. Re: Anyone else feel Ubuntu has jumped the shark?

    So, why aren't you running a debian install then?

    Or, on the other hand, is having to change the default
    desktop environment that big a hurdle that you actually
    consider changing?

  18. Re: How to go about interfacing a sensor to USB?

    It seems that the labjack has too low sample rate unless 1) I have missed something or 2) one goes the aliasing route.
