from what I've gathered, it's a licensing nightmare. Of course it's better than the current alternative which is piracy, but it's a drop in the bucket with regards to the people wh…

This was around 10 years ago, but at the time the suggestions on the forums were more towards fidelity and 5.1 surround sound. I can't recall exactly, but something of the sort. My…

this went out of style a long time ago. when you play videos out, everyone just stares at the screens.

I feel like they would make a killing if they made a pro version that would be able to dock into a simplified desktop. I’ve been wanting this for years. They love taking a semi coo…

for what it's worth, I've when gnome moved from version 2, I was completely lost. I went to xfce for a while then settled on kde for a long time but when I reformatted a machine to…

You would think they would be more aware of very commonly used acronyms, especially those with a negative connotation.

I would love this for 3D printers. I’m calling hacker spaces and libraries trying to find one close to me.

If not just Firefox, other related products. They seem to have the same issue as Google with starting and dropping strange products. I was actually considering using their password…
