Another outdoor smoker here, which means I smoke less on really crappy days.

It also varies as to whether I smoke first thing or not, some days it's literally the first stop after the bathroom, other days I'll have a cuppa first, turn on the computer, get set up for the day then head out for a smoke. The only sure one is that if I'm on my morning run, or when I cycled in to college, I'd wait until I'd finished before smoking.

I didn't just do an overhaul of my desktop to so I could bump the post count, oh no..
Clean through to dirty.

Automatic upgrades come from the service provider to the best of my knowledge. So while it might be likely that your phone will have its version of android automatically upgraded, it really does depend who you are with. For example, from memory, my HTC Legend had an upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2, but this update was rolled out at different times by different providers, I think I had to wait for a few months after the Americans had it.

New HTCs will come with their boot loader unlocked though, making it easier to root your phone and make changes, so that might influence how you go about making your decisions in future. http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/

As Awebb said though, xda-developers would be a better place about android features.

Sounds like snobbery to me, forums are a medium for discussion, if you care so much about coding versus discussion you do not need to read the threads.

Apologies for being a parasite.

Trolling? Seriously, someone comes to Linux, maybe gets guided by a friend towards a distro, and they're meant to instantly know about man pages? Or maybe it's a fairly generic error message, maybe they've not even used a terminal, shock horror, so have no handy error message to paste.

I never said they don't help, I did disagree with the statement that these forums are totally free of snobbery. Snobbery is snobbery no matter how helpful you are. I'm not even averse to snobbery, just denial.

Going from that screeny by anonymous, with just two applications open it's taking up roughly 70% more space, so while you may be correct on your assessment of it not being a big deal, I think it might be more of an issue for netbook users with much less screen real estate. I'd guess that I'd only need maybe six programmes running before it took over the screen.
Hence asking if anyone knew if it could be reverted, or even changed to use tiny/no icons.

Hold alt and left click to drag windows about that exceed the screen size.

Try looking in ~/.cache look for your browser folder in there and have a dig for the files. Then adjust the command to the correct path, so

mv ~/.cache/chromium/ / /F1* /home/ludo/Desktop

or something like that.

Minor changes.

Trying a more minimal desktop

Clean:

Dirty:

Not done a huge amount since last time, merely removed tint2 from the startup, and added stalonetray, which is what you can see peeking out from the top right of the screen. Stripped my conky down a bit too.
I also added a hardstatus to screen, which shows what I have open in screen, as well as the time and date.

I do use Ctrl, or middle click, but like I said, I tend to forget that I need to on this site, so I tend to click, hit back, then Ctrl+click.

Good point on the navigation links, but there should be a work around no? [obligatory everyone else manages to do it]Other forums have the capability.[/obligatory everyone else manages to do it]
