"Because of the release of GNOME 2.0 and 2.2, and the lack of interest in maintainership of GNOME 1.4, the gnome-core product is being closed. If you feel your bug is still of relevance to GNOME 2, please reopen it and refile it against a more appropriate component. Thanks... "

Someone have those cool AI code tools? Perfect job for a rewrite haha

Henry Hill:

As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster. To me, being a gangster was better than being President of the United States.

We ran everything. We paid off cops. We paid off lawyers. We paid off judges. Everybody had their hands out. Everything was for the taking.

If we wanted something, we just took it. If anyone complained twice they got hit so bad, believe me, they never complained again.
