Again, I say 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it!'. Kalarm from 7.3 to 9.3 worked well...now it doesn't in 10.3.
did you filled a bug report ?
I was told it and kinternet were being dropped, IIRR, after I filed one. (kinternet is being replaced with knetwormanager, I think it said, can't remember about kalarm)
btw.. my old cassette radio is also working fine, however tapes are more expensive than CDs nowdays.. same applies to software, mantaining an old product is a hell lot of work and **really** expensive.
You're talking apples and oranges now. Different *hardware* stuff is not comparable to software work. But if you want to be that way about it, I can counter that bs with - my 1960 Chevy Apache10 4x4 with a rebuilt (by me) 283 motor gets 20 mpg...same as my 1990 Chevy 2x4 with a V6. I take very good measures on maintenance with both of them. My old truck is 48 years old and I can take it almost literally anywhere I want (and darn near have, actually) and not worry about getting stuck. It's *much* simpler to work on also. The '90 I almost need to have a laptop computer (depending on the problem), a set of metric *and* SAE tools, and more than one jack if the problem is anything more than a flat tire. So your point is moot and means nothing about software being harder or more expensive to write/code. If that were true, Bash, and all sorts of other apps would have been booted from Linux *loooong* ago. -- "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
