I remember I gave Mandrake a try at some time (I didn't even have my own computer at the time as a teenager, so I was a Windows user on my family's computer...

I believe that's an issue. Rust currently has limited hardware support. There is some effort to make it work with GCC which might help with building for...

You don't need a PPA for kernels or mesa (unless you really need the very latest kernel/mesa, like for very new hardware) on Ubuntu, as Ubuntu releases...

Oh, wow. I guess some cost for bandwidth is to be expected, but 75k seems excessive. That's $200 per day.

I guess it could be a lot cheaper...

I was a huge fan of Unity 7 pretty much from the beginning. I have gotten used to gnome-shell by now, but if Unity 8 is anything like Unity 7, I might...

I agree, it would be a very bad idea to merge MRs which are not yet ready. I definitely support that decision.

However, I still feel like...
