Doomed!

After installing the latest version of Gnome, I noticed some small changes.

Even though I knew you were going to post this, I still thought it was an actual window that had just popped up.

That’s quite funny.

Wait, you mean it’s not real?

Linux has just lost all of its appeal for me now…

No, what Sheepie meant to say was that he thought my picture of the window that really did pop up was in fact a real dialog box that appeared at the same time my page loaded. The dialog really did appear.

You can get Gnome for OS X as well, you know. It just takes rather a long time to get it to compile correctly, and there’s not much point.

Darn ambiguity that is invisible only to the author. I meant, of course, popped up for me, at the precise moment the page loaded.
