Linode lets you upload VMs but I don't think they allow downloads.

I had one college course with a custom edition and we still had the option of using the regular edition, (all the page numbers were the same the custom editions only difference was a lack of extra chapters that we weren't going to cover).

The custom edition was cheaper than the regular edition and this is the only reason the professor did this. The book didn't seem to have very many used copies being sold as it was an advanced class and people were more likely to keep the book than sell it.

Just providing context to how a custom edition can be cheaper if the professor does work.

I've also had many professors write their own book and give it for free in pdf or let you buy it for $20 at the university copy center already bound with the option of buying supplemental books that they thought were of good quality.

Maybe my engineering department was different but it seemed most of my professors tried to work to help the students not have to pay large amounts.

I don't often print photos but when I do I usually use walmart or walgreens online service (though I've found walmart easier to get through). And this is because they offer the size of pictures I want like larger frames and stuff. I looked at picplum and just don't see the point because of the limitation of cheap (quality) 4x6 prints.

Edit: I guess they have added larger photos but walmart is still cheaper and offers good quality in the mail.

I might have wrote a confusing comment accidentally. The don't use black pretty much comes into play in realism and other art with how people perceive the color black.

It is more realistic to represent shadows and blacks with dark colors as that is what they are but we rarely see black.

Because Chinese painting is rather stylized in is specific way black is a major factor, the same would go for things like comics and comic books and other such things.

What I am confused about in this whole thing is because you are developing these patches and fixes and additions using the gpl code doesn't that mean that your patches cannot be released under the public domain as per the gpl because of how your code was made.

I'm thinking of this in the same way that wordpress themes/plugins have to be gpl if they use wordpress functions and such.

Wouldn't your patch have to be completely separate from textmates code to be considered eligible for anything other than being licensed as gpl?

The problem for me isn't the package manager, ports is great in FreeBSD.

The problem is FreeBSD doesn't keep up with modern hardware and you have to work very hard to get a laptop that works specifically with it.

I don't have it blocked by opendns and I have quite a few filters active on the network.

It is because some shady sites were putting a lock icon as the favicon to make you think it was secured so the tab is the better place for them.

It is pretty easy to notice when your account is hellbanned now as you are also slowbanned and it makes the site virtually unusable (waiting many seconds to minutes for each page to load).
