|Keynote - Beyond the Cloud: Technology and Business in a Composable Future
During the 1st Era of computing, applications were anchored in time and place with software written for specific platforms and scheduled to perform work when needed. We're now in the midst of the 2nd Era, where cloud application software is increasingly decoupled from underlying physical infrastructures, is run globally, and responds to events as needed. Jonathan Murray (@Adamathus) calls the 3rd Era of Computing 'The Metaform - The platform of Everything'.(http://www.adamalthus.com/blog/2015/01/08/the-metaform-the-platform-of-everything/) In this era beyond the cloud, code will once and for all be liberated from the constraints of time and place, opening the door to a real-time, insight-driven, composable future. Murray will outline the broad implications of this composable future, where businesses unlock fully the value of their core capabilities and new businesses are increasingly constructed from parts available from a global service marketplace. Murray will discuss the technological, operational, and strategic challenges enterprises will need to overcome to survive and profit from this coming transformation.
Speaker: Jonathan Murray, Founding Partner - Innovia Strategies and Founder n.flex.n Software
|Keynote - Composable, Componentized, Control...Is Your Cloud Strategy Keeping Up?
The explosion of microservices, agile CI/CD and RESTful APIs is creating a new model for building highly distributed applications and launching them quickly. At the same time, systems of record and governance models will not disappear overnight. How is your organization balancing these competing demands? Is your hybrid strategy supported by management capabilities that span a wide spectrum of host modalities? Jared examines 5 must-solve questions as you consider the future of your most critical application workloads.
Speaker:Jared Wray, CTO, CenturyLink Cloud
|Keynote: "Get Out of My Way": What Developers Really Want
Your developers are asking for real cloud because they want easy, fast and predictable access to resources so they can deliver applications and features at scale faster. How do you enable those developers to move at the speed that the business is asking? Striking the balance of control, security, and visibility for IT teams is the challenge most organizations face today. In this talk, you'll hear what thousands of developers have told Scott and Niki. You'll leave with ideas to help change your mindset and break the glass required to give your developers what they need to help your business move faster.
-Niki Acosta, Cloud Evangelist, Cisco
-Scott Sanchez, Director, Cloud Strategy, Cisco
|Keynote - Why You Can't Have a Cloud Solution Without a Secure, High-Performance Network Solution
Successful businesses have realized that to compete, the cloud is no longer an option it's a necessity. More and more businesses are moving internal, mission-critical applications, workloads and data out of on-premises data centers and into the cloud. This presents many new challenges that come with expanding and exposing corporate networks and IT environments to public networks and distributed computing resources. This session will uncover some recent trends in the types of applications moving to the cloud, top business concerns and risk factors, as well as show how a secure, high-performance network solution can help navigate the increasingly complex networked world.
Speaker: Paul Savill, Senior Vice President, Global Core Product Management, Level 3
|Achieving Financial Hyperscale for the Cloud Market
The next, and perhaps decisive battle in the paradigm shift from legacy IT operations to public cloud computing is going to be waged in the office of the CIO and CFO. The biggest threat to the future of the cloud economy is not whether we can make the technology work. That ship has sailed. Rather, the biggest threat is whether we can overcome the business obstacles; our collective ability to deliver on the economic promise and the vision of consuming compute, network, and storage as a true utility. This presentation explores how embracing IT financial transparency and an openly interchangeable market creates the path to financial hyperscale for the cloud computing ecosystem and forms the foundation for the next generation of IT supply chain opportunities. Whether you are a Cloud Service Buyer, Provider, or Broker this session is a must attend for your IT financial playbook.
Speaker: John D. Cowan, Co-Founder and CEO, 6Fusion
|Cloud Composite Applications and Portable Topologies
As enterprises move to a DevOps approach, independent teams and interdependent services become the norm. Independence can be achieved by untying applications from the underlying infrastructures and platforms. However, interdependent services within composite cloud applications can pose portability challenges. While containers help in application portability, modelling an application topology enables cross-cloud portability. In this session, we will talk about the difficulties, methods, and benefits of application portability across cloud platforms.
Speaker: Vinothini Raju, Founder & CEO, Bluemeric
|Cloud Economics and Strategy
Learn key economic and strategic lessons from an experienced hyperscale practitioner of public and private cloud. Mark Williams led the Infrastructure Operations team at Zynga through its unprecedented growth from traditional data center infrastructure in 2008 to becoming one of Amazon's largest cloud customers through 2011 before sharply pivoting to migrate completely into private cloud in 2012. This session will look at the various business imperatives that evolved as the business matured and the strategies that proved successful along the way. In addition, the session will cover the latest pricing trends across public cloud providers, private and hybrid cloud technologies, and leveraging data and charge/show back to influence change in how your customers consume IT. It will also look at the pros and cons of public, private, and hybrid cloud adoption.
Speaker: Mark Williams, CTO, Redapt
|Hybrid Ops: Managing Your Applications Across Infrastructure Platforms
If you are like most cloud users, you maintain systems on different infrastructure platforms. Perhaps you run your systems across multiple public cloud providers. Or perhaps you choose the best platform for each component of your architecture, where your front-end is on one public cloud, your processing nodes are on another, and your back-end is on your own physical infrastructure. Or maybe you are embarking on a long-term migration from dedicated infrastructure to the cloud. This session highlights the hybrid scenarios that we run into most frequently at Google, the operational challenges in each, and best practices you can employ to operate your hybrid applications most effectively.
Speaker: Dan Belcher, Lead Product Manager - Logging and Monitoring, Google
|Making The Cloud Feel Local
By 2017, two-thirds of the applications used by businesses will be processed in the cloud--including email, document sharing and storage, collaboration, ERP, CRM, and more. Historically, the closer the user has been to the data, the better. But in a cloud model, the business has less control over the data's physical location, which can affect performance. Now the industry is at the threshold of a significant change that is poised to eliminate this constraint from most IT decisions. With the help of modern tools designed for this purpose, IT managers can tap into the cloud as efficiently as if all its resources were stored in the next room. Applications and data can be placed wherever is optimal for the business and can be quickly moved around as necessary. Users will experience no performance degradation. Administrators and developers can retain visibility into application behavior regardless of how much distance might separate them.
Speaker: Steve Riley, Technical Director in the Office of the CTO, Riverbed Technology
|Moving Beyond Hybrid Cloud Hype: 5 Steps to Achieve Application Portability
While the vision of hybrid cloud — deploying applications to any cloud environment based on business needs or regulatory requirements — is seductive, most IT organizations find significant challenges in achieving that vision: differing hypervisor technologies, inconsistent APIs, and multiple application management toolsets. This presentation will discuss the real goal of hybrid cloud computing — application portability — and five practical steps IT organizations can take to ensure they achieve their hybrid cloud vision.
Speaker: Bernard Golden, Author, Amazon Web Services for Dummies, Vice President Strategy, ActiveState Software
|Planning for Failure
There are a few guarantees in life: death, taxes, and infrastructure failures. Weston Jossey, Head of Operations at Tapjoy, can't grant you immortality or file your taxes, but he can help you plan for failure. Learn about how Tapjoy has transformed itself from a company that frequently suffered 20+ hours of downtime a quarter, to one that averages 99.95% availability, all while reducing costs, decreasing complexity, and improving cloud and DevOps joy. Weston will walk you through Tapjoy's experiences inside of AWS, as well as its private OpenStack deployment, and how lessons learned in one can be carried over to the other.
Speaker: Weston Jossey, Head of Operations, Tapjoy
|Rethinking Workload Migration
When it comes to cloud there are typically three approaches to workload migration: kill, lift-n-drop, or redevelop. Many businesses today use the cloud for its infrastructure-on-demand services and perform lift-n-drop of their existing workloads into a cloud environment. While this allows businesses to take advantage of cloud economics and performance, it does little to improve their ability to operate the application stack. By contrast, deploying that application stack in a manner that leverages existing cloud services can significantly improve scalability while reducing operational overhead. This session will look at real-world examples from deployments on AWS and Google to show how even modest modifications to current deployment architectures when migrated to the cloud can have a big impact on non-functional requirements.
Speaker: JP Morgenthal, Director Cloud & DevOps Practices, Perficient, Inc.
|The Cloud Whisperer: Overcoming Your IT Staff's Fear of Cloud
Cloud services have been around long enough, and their value sufficiently proven, that most executives and business units are ready and willing to buy in. It's the IT organization that may be dragging its collective feet. Their objections may revolve around security, maturity, lock-in, etc., or stem from the worry the cloud makes them redundant (and thus unemployed). In this session, we'll discuss 'cloud whisperer' techniques to soothe IT's fears and help bring them on board. We'll share real-world stories about staff fears, and how IT leadership worked around these fears to create significant benefit for the organization.
Speaker: Jonathan Feldman, CIO of the City of Asheville, NC
|The Good, The Bad and The Ugly of OpenStack Operations
Historically, some have considered OpenStack difficult to deploy and operate. There are dozens of resources— from consultants and training to distributions and tools—available to help, but is the problem really solved? The fact is, operating an OpenStack cloud is not a trivial endeavor. This talk will detail what it takes to actually operate an OpenStack cloud in production, from the perspective of a cloud operator who has more than three years of first-hand experience operating OpenStack clouds across dozens of deployments.
Speaker: Craig Tracey, Cloud Architect, Blue Box Group
|The Post-Cloud: Where Google, DevOps and Docker Converge
The cloud technology landscape is shifting. We have a mixture of dead ends and new roads. New concepts like containers, DevOps, PaaS, and more are altering the way we look at cloud computing. Nicholas Weaver will strip away the magic and talk about how these concepts expose the next evolution of private cloud. One that is built on lessons learned by hyperscale companies like Google but attainable by the private cloud 99%.
Speaker: Nick Weaver, Principal Platform Architect, Intel

|Featured Workshops Powered by Cloud Connect
|Cloud Applications: The Next Generation
Cloud computing solves the problem of infrastructure -- computing resources are now cheap, scalable, and easy to access. However, it's still challenging to design and operate applications for cloud environments; in addition, the ongoing shift of IT from back office to the public-facing front of the corporation means the number and type of applications is changing dramatically. The Cloud Applications workshop delivers knowledge and insight about how IT organizations can prepare for the new world of cloud applications.
Instructor: Bernard Golden, Author, Amazon Web Services for Dummies, Vice President Strategy, ActiveState Software
|Container Crash Course
Containers are hot. If you're wondering what the buzz is about and whether it's justified, this workshop is for you. We'll delve into the technology of containers, including their similarities and differences with virtual machines. We will discuss use cases and appropriate workloads, and describe how containers can be integrated into a cloud strategy. We'll also look at the container ecosystem for operations and management, and point you in the right direction for testing and experimentation.
Instructor: Andrew Clay Shafer, Senior Director of Technology, Pivotal
|Designing Infrastructure for Private Clouds
Private cloud deployments are often just a glorified facade for server virtualization, missing the flexibility, elasticity and self-service aspects of cloud services. The missteps leading to this sad state usually start in the design phase, making it even more important to focus on the design of your private cloud infrastructure.
Instructor: Ivan Pepelnjak, Network Architect, ipSpace.net AG
|Making Cloud Storage Work For Your Organization
The ready availability and relatively low price of cloud storage means IT departments can improve the services they provide while also keeping costs in line. Because cloud storage is equally accessible from anywhere, it's a compelling option for providing access to data from multiple locations. Cloud storage is also attractive for backup data. Even better, in a disaster IT can recover that data from a provider for rapid recovery. Add in how object storage services like Amazon's Glacier offer low-cost, long-term archiving and the cloud starts to look like a nice place to keep some of your data. The rub, of course, is that cloud storage is on the other side of the Internet from your applications, which adds significant latency and stresses your bandwidth. These latency and bandwidth challenges will require organizations to make process and organizational changes, and storage pros aren't big fans of change. This workshop will explore how you can bring the advantages of cloud storage to your organization without losing your mind.
Instructor: Howard Marks, Contributing Editor, Network Computing
|OpenStack Boot Camp
Cloud computing with OpenStack is a powerful way of providing and consuming IaaS to achieve the scale and agility required by IT departments today. In the most recent release, Icehouse, approximately 350 enterprise-driven features were included. Organizations such as Fidelity, Bloomberg, Comcast, Best Buy, and Wells Fargo are now deploying OpenStack-powered IaaS in production in order to increase operational efficiency and create real business value. The OpenStack Boot Camp provides an opportunity for cloud architects, IT management and business leaders to gain a working understanding of OpenStack and how to achieve business agility, performance and scale, and cost-savings within an existing enterprise environment. This introduction will cover topics like enterprise readiness for OpenStack, how to choose the best cloud for your applications and show real world examples on how companies are taking advantage of OpenStack today. In addition, the Boot Camp will provide an overview of the OpenStack ecosystem and how you can leverage this growing group of companies to make sure your deployments are successful.

-Melissa Palmer, Creative Director, Virtual Design Master
|Practical Cloud Management
Many cloud deployments start with wonderful hopes and dreams, but quickly devolve to decentralized chaos, ever-increasing bills, or abandonment. This workshop will cover the most important aspects of cloud management so that your organization can realize the full benefits of the cloud instead of becoming a cautionary tale. We will cover how to establish a robust (but fixed) set of tools and resources; how to monitor access, performance, security, and cost; how to handle privileged-user access so that your developers and sysadmins have access to only the things they need; why you should (usually) bootstrap your servers instead of baking them; and how to take full advantage of automation and orchestration.

3.8 looks like it's going to be a great release! And all the next major distros will be using it. Exciting stuff..
Learn from the best, huh?
both are essentially mac os 8 and windows 95 knockoffs. i laughed a bit when both gnome and canonical tried to copy lion's full screen mode just to stay hip. behind the moralistic rhetoric free software is just a Chinese Gucci bag on a soapbox.
And don't forget all the software stacks that were originally developed for Linux and Apple later incorporated into Mac Os X, such as cups and webkit.
Who cares where the ideas came from, our implementations are free and yay for the extra support/features. Though I have no idea what this is actually about (it's just another touch screen specification?). But I won't complain.
Besides if anything apparently Microsoft probably took many a inspiration from KDE for Win 7 and the likes, but KDE is far more powerful and feature packed than the Windows shell, though its almost too customizable for some.
Take the various protocols in X.Org, for example. Like multitouch (http://www.x.org/wiki/Development/Do...ion/Multitouch). Yeah, let's go to hardware vendors with that and ask them to make devices that implement it.
Are you serious? Microsoft can do this. It's where the money is. How on earth do you expect Linux to do this?

Is it needed to be able to use win8 certified touch screens.
The small patches is to comply with how win8 certified touch screens handles things.

This compressor is a poor design. Compressor froze up after 5 months of use.This model is oil free. How can you have a piston going up and down in a cylinder without any lubrication? I do advise to avoid the oil free models.

Used it for heavy impact. I set the regulator to the impact's desired specs (90 psi) with craftsman 25' coiled hose. Worked well to get crankshaft pulley out. One drawback is its advertised as max 150 psi in the tank. The cut off is at 140. Meaning when you buy the tank new. it will stop at 140 psi. I;m sure you can adjust the cutoff and cut on psi. However i dont need to since impact tools are around 90 psi, unless using some other higher spec tools.

Got this to use around the house and on my cars. This compressor looses 10lbs of pressure once it hits 150lbs. Tried using a sander at 90psi and the compressure could even handle it. Tried using an impact wrench and the same issue, it was able to handle my framing nailer, but tthatis all...vety disappointed

Kingman, AZ

I have had my Compressor for 2 weeks. It is very slow to fill and when it shuts off it bleeds off air...drops 25 psi before it quits leaking. If the tank is empty is takes almost 10 minutes to go from 0 to 150 psi. Is that normal? Is it supposed to drop 25 psi from the 150 psi shutoff pressure? I don't see how this will keep up with my nail gun and paint sprayer. It is also VERY loud and makes wearing ear protection a must.

Best of luck to the project.
I already planned on using Sip Witch to set up a purely client-server intranet SIP env some time, that it can already do. Mesh support would make it more of a p2p app and less of a server, so I hope for these environments the p2p features can be turned off.
Also would be interesting to hear how GPG hashes of the session key avoids MITM; Zimmerman says they should be read aloud at the start, as the secure way to exchange them.
Oh also,
Skype users can gtfo.
Why not call it "Gnu Call"?
Skype? Give me a break! Remember how everyone was rolling his eyes when being warned about potential threat to his privacy by closed crap (both software and communication protocols)? And then this:

Not that I had anything to hide, but I definitely value my freedom (which implies right for privacy) above anything else. Good luck blowing Skype's sorry ass out of the sky as it rightfully deserves!
Come on, gnu is one of the most absurd beasts in the world, a not-that-bright mix of an horse and a cow, a natural prey for more aggressive animals like lions, and it is U.G.L.Y!
Please, someone tell RMS to choose a better name and logo for the free software movement! Gnu's Not Unix? Fine, but would be better to tell what the free-as-in-freedom operating system IS instead of what it is NOT?
Due to the wonders of the internet skype and other communication can be kept out of reach of many, but if they happen to have an office in your country you can expect some sort of gov scrutiny.

No edit button so i add a few more things:
The US and EU have one of the biggest monitoring setups on earth.Iam not sure about skype but no corporation there can ever escape security laws in any country,be it china or india or the US.
Luckily for skype they are based in luxembourg.
But skype actually uses industry standard 256 AES encryption so i hear even US has tough time intercepting it,but iam sure they can do it.Considering US is highly sensitive on these issues of security they probably wont allow skype calls into or outside the US without this.I dont know the status of this though.

Rotating QWidget based applications on MeeGo Harmattan
This article explains how to rotate QWidget-based applications on MeeGo Harmattan. This useful when porting apps from desktop if you don't want to re-write the UI in QML.
Qt is a framework used to develop application software with a graphical user interface (GUI). It allows developers to write the application GUI using QWidget (pure C++), QtComponents (C++/QML/JS) or HTML(C++/HTML/JS).
MeeGo 1.2 Harmattan, Nokia's latest platform in the market, offers to application developers a set of QML Components which can be used to design amazing interfaces where touch input, fluid animations and user experience are crucial.
QML Components have been optimized to squeeze out all the GPU power, providing developers with an easy way of coding which doesn't cause performance loss as QWidget sometimes does. For this and other reasons Harmattan doesn't support QWidgets. Porting a Symbian or Maemo QWidget-based application to the new platform requires the re-writing of the entire UI. Writing a UI with QML is much easier than with QWidget and the porting doesn't really take so much time.
However, some developers don't really want to spend time on QML and they want to run the app on MeeGo as it is.
Limitations of QWidgets on Harmattan
QWidgets have many limitations on Harmattan; the most important are:
- Application orientation locked in landscape
- No MeeGo Style
In this article we will talk about the first limitation and how it can be worked around.
Why don't QWidget-based apps rotate on Harmattan?
A mobile application can be locked in landscape or potrait or even be left free to change according to the device orientation value provided by the accelerometer sensor.
QWidget class provides a setAttribute() method that was largely used on Symbian and Maemo to set the application orientation. QWidget::setAttribute(orientation) on Harmattan doesn't work anymore because X11 server has been built without RandR extension ( X Resize, Rotate and Reflect ). This means that the screen cannot rotate anymore and therefore it is the application itself which has to rotate.
This is an important feature, allowing MeeGo to have a fancy and smooth transition effect when an application switches from one orientation mode to another.
How to work around this problem
In order to make the application work in portrait mode QWidgets need to be rotated. Unfortuantely QWidgets, originally designed for desktop, are not able to rotate. The only way to rotate a QWidget is to paint it in a canvas and rotate it. Qt canvas is called QGraphicsScene. The scene is displayed to the user by a QGraphicsView and the items in the QGraphicsScene are QGraphicsItems.
In order to paint a QWidget in a QGraphicsScene we need a QGraphicsProxyWidget. The easiest solution to rotate the app would be to paint the main window on QGraphicsScene and then rotate the scene. Unfortunately this is not really the best solution because developers would need to write the animation code of the transition between the two orientation modes and to adapt the application so that it displays the system bar on the top part of the screen.
A better option would be to transform the QWidget graphics item into a QML element.
The solution: "Embedding" a QWidget in a MeeGo Components-based application
As we said before, MeeGo applications use MeeGo QML components.
A MeeGo Components-based application is made up of a [Window] and some [Pages]. To rotate the application we need to paint the QWidget main view on the page. Therefore we have to "transform" the MainWindow widget into a QDeclarataiveItem as shown in the code below.
ProxyWidget::ProxyWidget(QDeclarativeItem *parent) :
mEmbeddedWidget(new MainWindow())
mProxyWidget = new QGraphicsProxyWidget(this);
void ProxyWidget::geometryChanged(const QRectF &newGeometry, const QRectF & oldGeometry)
The new object type is registered and available to the declarative view
qmlRegisterType<ProxyWidget>("ProxyWidget", 1, 0, "ProxyWidgetItem");
The object is created in QML as shown below
import ProxyWidget 1.0
Page {
tools: commonTools
Label {
id: label
anchors.centerIn: parent
text: qsTr("Hello world!")
visible: false
anchors {
horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
top: label.bottom
topMargin: 10
text: qsTr("Click here!")
onClicked: label.visible = true
ProxyWidgetItem {
anchors.fill: parent
This code is all you need to rotate the application; the line below can be removed from main.cpp, because it doesn't do anything.
In case you want to lock your app in portrait mode you need to set orientationLock property of the Page element to PageOrientation.LockPortrait as follow
Page {
orientationLock: PageOrientation.LockPortrait
More information about controlling rotation is available at this page.
Canned Solution
To make it easier for you, I made a template which you could re-use.
Step-by-step instructions are available here. The code is divided into 2 parts: the first one contains the procedure described previously and the second one should contain the code of your application. This code is built as static library and its main widget is used by the proxy widget described before.
The main limitations of this solution are:
- QTreeWidget::setItemWidget() doesn't work as expected: the bug has been reported here.
- QDialogs should not be used.
- Rotation doesn't really work on the Qt SDK Simulator.
- WebView microfocus doesn't work correctly. The virtual keyboard doesn't disappear when input html elements lose the focus. Solution is described in the block below:
- The virtual keyboard cannot be closed by tapping outside the text field (QLineEdit): The following code snippet fix this problem too.
In applications developed with Qt WebKit the virtual keyboard is not automatically hidden when it is unfocused. A workaround consists of adding an event filter to the affected view instance:
class EventFilter : public QObject
bool eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *event) {
QInputContext *ic = qApp->inputContext();
if (ic) {
if (ic->focusWidget() == 0 && prevFocusWidget) {
QEvent closeSIPEvent(QEvent::CloseSoftwareInputPanel);
} else if (prevFocusWidget == 0 && ic->focusWidget()) {
QEvent openSIPEvent(QEvent::RequestSoftwareInputPanel);
prevFocusWidget = ic->focusWidget();
return QObject::eventFilter(obj,event);
QWidget *prevFocusWidget;
This filter can be installed on a QGraphicsView or (in QML) on a QDeclarativeView instance:
EventFilter ef;

It's news from last week. For a website, that covers gaming news in Linux, you are really slow.Today we are hearing that the Desura Linux client is ready and is now out in the wild for beta testing.
Phoronix: Desura Game Platform Goes Into Beta On Linux
The Desura Game Client, which is a similar service to Valve's Steam game distribution platform for e-delivery, is now in beta on Linux...
It's news from last week. For a website, that covers gaming news in Linux, you are really slow.Today we are hearing that the Desura Linux client is ready and is now out in the wild for beta testing.
oh man, michale is at the octoberfest in munic, so don't expect light speed these days ;-)
The closed beta was only released on the 19th/20th, so Michael's article is not out of date.
I'm actually in the closed beta myself, and have been testing it out. So far this is looking really promising. There are some quirks with installing some games, and other little bugs, but it pretty much works as it's supposed to. The client installation is pretty distribution agnostic. It's a single executable that builds up it's own directory and downloads dependencies when run. It also takes care of making/updating system menu links.
Desura is pretty cool because in addition to a fairly large selection of indie games, they also have open source games on there. Having Desura keep them up to date is a lot better than the 10 year old versions that show up in system repositories. This is especially useful for stuff that is under rapid development, like Xonotic.
Yet another closed-source distribution platform? That's great, who doesn't love running Steam, Origin, (now) Desura all at the same time for the same purpose? Advice to indie developers: Ubuntu Software Center + tarballs is a better investment for Linux deployment.
Anyway, good luck to them. They'll need it.
Seeing as though Steam and Origin don't exist on Linux, this is the only closed-source distribution platform there is. It's also fairly benign compared to Steam and Origin, since it's completely DRM free. All games can be run without the client running.
It also seems to be running OK on most distributions, unlike Ubuntu Software Center. I use Ubuntu myself, but there is no way I would purchase anything from the USC. Ubuntu is the dominant OS now, but it may not be forever. Desura runs on any distro, so I think it's a much better solution.
Tarballs are fine, but a pain in the ass to keep updated. Give it an honest try before you dismiss it. I agree that they don't stand much of a chance on Windows, but sure fills a needed void on Linux.
Desura runs on Linux, can be used to keep all your games up to date easily, and doesn't look to try take over the rest of your system. If you have a problem with that being closed source, I guess you'll have a problem with any game that's closed source too and so it's not meant for you anyway.
I recently did an interview with Desura's Linux Games Lead about the development of the Linux client, what it's like to scout for native and Open Source games, and what impact the native client might have on the Desura and Free Software communities.
Part one and part two are live and part three should be up soon.

The Grigio is another breakthrough in synthetic brushes from Da Vinci. Developed over years of research with oil and acrylic paints, Grigio brushes feature a new fiber blend that contains slightly textured fibers of different diameters, finely assembled to guarantee color absorption, strength, and high elasticity.
Grigio brushes combine the features of a sharp synthetic and smooth Kolinsky to give artists the benefits of both. They're also very easy to clean.
Considered to be better than synthetic mongoose, Da Vinci Grigio brushes are ideal for acrylics, oils, and

brightness control not working for me with this kernel.
is a problem with RC version and this final too, too bad same error who was reported and not resolved
Phoronix: Feature-Rich Linux 3.10 Kernel Officially Released
The Linux 3.10 kernel, which yields the biggest changes in years, has been officially released this Sunday evening...
brightness control not working for me with this kernel.
is a problem with RC version and this final too, too bad same error who was reported and not resolved
Am I the only one that finds the kernel updates generally uninteresting?
I guess if one is using the open source graphics drivers or maybe btrfs there's a lot happening there of significance.
And if you aren't using the FOSS drivers for one reason or another (Radeon: You've got a laptop, Nouveau: you've got a new-ish card) then you won't have much interest there either...
Read Linus' release notes, everytime what are the two biggest sources of churn in the kernel? Drivers and Filesystems. If you aren't using one or both of those, then you only care about new kernel releases for bug fixes else where.
Sorry, but Linux is far from done and/or bullet proof. It's getting more bloated and more unstable with each release.
It's only compounded by the perpetual quick turnaround cycle of the user space areas and continuous stream of bugs that never manage to get fixed whether for GNOME, KDE or what not as it updates newer revisions.
Sorry, but the entire ecosystem just isn't anywhere near as polished as it should be for Linux to become a true 3rd OS for Desktop daily consumption.
OS X is the baseline.

If you wanted to make a closed source commercial app using QT, would you still need a developers license?

We have put a lot of effort keeping the Qt codebase legally clear and clean, and this attention to detail will continue under the Qt Project. We have been over the last months reviewed the CLA extensively with many stakeholders and believe we have a solution that is as inclusive as possible for all companies and individuals that want to contribute to Qt. The CLA also enables the commercial ecosystem around Qt to continue to thrive and contribute to the project. Further, there are a number of legal obligations from Trolltech and Nokia that have to be taken into account."
See http://qt.nokia.com/products/licensing/.
Whenever the shit hits the fan, this thing can be forked.
It can be forked right now, but then you wouldn't get the Nokia's paid development for free. Hey that sound familiar, when looked upon from the other side.
I bet all you negative posters scored a high emotional function score at the Rorschach test
As I already wrote: I'm aware of the obligations for Qt 4.x as commercial support contracts guaranty the possibility of closed source releases for the timespan of a Qt generation. But as I also wrote: Qt 5 would be a new generation and that would free Nokia from those obligations.
Aside from the obvious scam that potential contributors give more rights to Nokia than contributors have themselves, there are a number of additional problems with that CLA.
I give one example: Lets say hypothetically that the Mozillas new Azure graphics was so awesome it would make perfect sense to port it to Qt and use it there. In actual LGPLed community projects that would be no problem. In Qt thats not possible because the CLA forbids it.
Everybody bitches against NIH syndrome eg when GNOME people are too proud or whatever to implement KDEs StatusNotifier protocol.
Now even under open governance NIH syndrome is still mandated by Qt.
People with doubts about this, read this: http://dot.kde.org/2011/10/21/kde-ap...pen-governance
So Qt it's FREE forever.
Phonon was a short experiment. It is deprecated now and replaced by QtMultimedia which can be made proprietary again.
As long as Nokia maintains its CLA, foreign LGPLed code cannot be imported into QtCore, QtDeclarative, or QtGui.
Nokia in turn can to whatever it wants with Qt code, incl. incorporating it into proprietary software for the beloved WP7.

Spring migration, temperate weather and more documented bird species than any other state comprise the perfect recipe for an April visit one of the dozens of Texas State Parks that cater to birders with bird-friendly habitat and viewing facilities.
Texas is blessed with more than 630 species of birds, some of them colorful, tropical migrants that return to the state or pass through as the weather warms and food becomes more plentiful. Even those unfamiliar with birding can have fun spotting such easily identifiable species as northern cardinals, green jays, kiskadees, painted buntings, roseate spoonbills and brown pelicans. Beginning birders may want to download Introduction to Birding [http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/publications/pwdpubs/media/pwd_bk_w7000_0476.pdf] to learn what to look and listen for.
The Lone Star State is home, too, to the Great Texas Coastal Birding Trail, the nation's first, and the 17th annual Great Texas Birding Classic being held from April 15 to May 15.
Each region in this sprawling state - from Gulf Coast beaches to the mountains of Big Bend -- offers a different birding experience and a variety of resident specialty bird species. To learn about the varied birding opportunities, birding facilities and birding eventsat a Texas State Park near you, visit: http://www.texasstateparks.org/birding.
To find a birding event near you, visit the Texas Parks and Wildlife calendar of events at [http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/calendar/birds-bats-more ]
A can't-miss birding opportunity for beginning and accomplished birders alike awaits at the World Birding Center headquarters at Bentsen-Rio Grande Valley State Park in Mission. Bentsen is one of three Rio Grande Valley state parks that double as WBC sites. At Bentsen, visitors can hike or ride bicycles to see a dazzling variety of birds, many of which visit from Mexico and points further south. Bird feeding and watering stations and photo blinds throughout the park, as well as a two-story hawk watch tower, provide excellent birding vantage points.
A dozen other Texas State Parks have been designated as having the "best birding blinds" that offer prime perches for viewing and photographing our feathered friends: Abilene, Blanco, Brazos, Devils Sinkhole, Falcon, Fort Parker, Franklin Mountains, Goliad, Lake Mineral Wells, Palo Duro Canyon, Pedernales Falls and San Angelo.
To learn about some birding basics and what you should bring on your birding adventure, watch this Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's "Basics of Birding" video: http://www.youtube.com/watchvv=Ygh5d2qNjnk&list=PLE8D618F1022E782C&index=20&feature=plpp_video

This is a great looking shoe that feels great and one that will only get better with time. The foot bed forms to your feet. I have Teva shoes from a few years back, still wear them and love them. Looking at the Kimtah boots to buy now.

Best Uses
- You name it
I'm a grouchy old man who broke his ankle a couple of years ago, and only write reviews for things I like. These shoes have (so far) been undisputedly the best at allowing me 1) to climb the wall and hill in my back yard to pick up dog poop, 2) to traverse the 30% grade to my mailbox a quarter mile away, and 3) to do "quad" exercises so I can (someday) resume XC skiing. The Teva Toachi II's had been the only other contender allowing some flexibility for these activities, but these Kimtah slip-ons are (at this writing) THE end-all-be-all. I absolutely love them. They're like wearing butter. There's nothing touching my ankle (so no constant implicit pain as with boots), I can make left turns without looking like I've incurred a groin muscle injury, and the Mush insole makes forget I'm wearing shoes altogether. Did I mention, I love them?
Now for some sizing advice: My shoe size is 10.5 US, and I'm wearing that size Kimtahs. I wear DryMax ¼ crew "Lite Trail Running" socks (slightly thicker than some folks might wear), and initially found the Kimtahs almost impossible to put on even with a stiff shoe horn. I kept at it, though, and once they were on I found them tight, but otherwise extremely comfortable. There was a minor "hot spot" on my right heel. The second day, I put them on with substantially less effort, and the hot spot was barely noticeable. The third day, although I still used the stiff shoe horn, they went on considerably easier, and the hot spot was gone. (Here's the advice part…) Even if other reviews (here, or at the giant book seller site) suggest you buy these a half-size bigger, stick by yer guns and get the correct size. Give 'em three days and see if they're not among the best, most comfortable shoes you've ever worn.

Does the ring come with certification paperwork?
My now fiancé got me this ring for the day he proposed. I picked out three rings on overstock and I told him which one I liked the best and this was the one. It is perfect, it is glamours, sparkles in light and even when it's dark and there's barely any light. Very light weight so I don't know that I'm even wearing a ring until I look down at my finger. He couldn't have picked any better then what he did. I would highly recommend this to anyone....

The most obvious advantage of starting sooner is that we can finish sooner relative to HW launch.
What it also means is that there will be less time spent "learning the same lessons about hardware quirks from scratch" (since we'll all be sharing information as the new hardware is brought up for the first time) but that is traded off against the fact that developing earlier is harder because we are not able to rely on other teams having worked through HW issues and worked around them in VBIOS and microcode, and because testing needs to be done on simulators rather than on (faster) real hardware. On balance I expect we will come out a bit ahead.
The big difference I expect is that we will be less likely to get "stuck" on hardware issues the way we have been on SI at a couple of points, since everyone else will be working on the same HW at the same time as the open source devs. That's one of those "the worst case won't be as bad" advantages though, sort of like a higher minimum frame rate
There are a number of open questions right now :
First is how expensive the next round of performance improvements are going to be in the current open source driver stack once things like tiling and hyper-Z are enabled by default. My guess is that there should still be some low hanging fruit related to performance of slower games like Warsow.
The second is whether the combination of new shader architecture in SI and the use of LLVM in the open source driver's shader compiler will raise the general level of performance on shader-intensive apps -- we think it will but we don't have any testing to confirm or deny at this point.
The third is how close we can get power & thermal management to the proprietary driver.
Last is whether we will be able to usefully leverage the performance work done on the proprietary driver, since the two drivers have fairly different internal architectures (proprietary shares code across OSes, open shares code across HW vendors). If we are able to leverage some of the performance work then things get better than what I'm saying here, but since it's a "we don't know yet" I don't want to set any expectations.
We should know more about the first three over the next couple of months.

Erecting is just a matter of hammering pegs into the four corners and putting in the centre pole. Oztrail has some entry level ones around the $400 mark if I'm not mistaken. I have a similar one and it comfortably sleeps 2 adults / 2 children + luggage. The disadvantage is that when packed, they are still quite heavy and are usually 1m x 1m.

Lublin castle is situated near to the PKS ( major Polish enterprise dealing with public transport) , adjacent to the Old Town district and close to the city center.
Lublin castle is known for signing here in 1569 Union of Lublin , the founding act of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights. In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states. Text by Steve Smith.

I do a lot of printing of photos of my projects before starting during the process and after completion. These cartridges are a great value, no difference in this product compared to the original brand of HP. It was definitely a money savings and I will continue ordering cartridges from Overstock on my photo and all-in-one printers!
These are Non-HP ink cartridges and so far they are working great. I have had no problems yet but I have had them for about 3 weeks & i don't print much so i will wait & see.
Delivery of this product was in an acceptable timeframe, and I have had no problems with these cartridges.
Best price for 2 cartridges and better than other online cartridge sites as far as price and quality. I never have to worry if it will be compatible with my printer or not. I print several sheets of coupons every week and these cartridges both last at least 6 months or more. Second time I've purchased from Overstock.com and will continue to do so in the future. I recommended to anyone who owns an HP Printer. Recycle your ink cartridges at your local office supply store, but buy them at Overstock.com!
These cartridges arrived quickly. By mistake, I ended up receiving 2 sets of these. So I got 2 black and 2 color. So far I haven't even installed the color ones yet. The black cartridges started out great! When I first put them in, they printed just the right way, but they both ran out of ink a lot faster than I had hoped for. But considering the price and the way they worked until they ran out of ink I would probably give them another try. Hopefully the color will be the same!
Neither one of these cartridges worked. Every time I tried to install them I received an error message telling me to remove and check cartridge. I have an HP psc 2410 photosmart printer.
I had no problem installing these cartridges. They worked great, I printed several test pages and the quality of those prints was just great.
I order this so long ago and didn't remember to review it. I'm sorry but the Ink was great as a matter of fact I still have enough for continue use. The Ink print to paper perfectly and I will order more from this vendor when I need it thanks.
Only problem is that my printer wouldn't accept one of them when that color went out. I had to replace both at the same time. But at this price the value is great. I printed up some great California Desert Sunsets and the color is vibrant! Just like it was live!
Working great out of the box & has as good of color as the HP ink cartridges that I have purchased through the years. This is my 1st time buying these through Overstock, so only time will tell how long they may last. The only Con for me, is that the other place that I buy my remanufactured cartridges from send along with their's, a free postage paid bag for recycling the old ones. That's the only reason for giving 4 Stars instead of 5 I believe in recycling when it's possible.
