Please choose what do you want to do with the following items:
- Apple: [x] eat it [ ] look at it [ ] throw it away
- Trousers [x] wear it [ ] wash it [ ] iron it
- Car [ ] sell it [ ] drive it [ ] repair it
Is it really that hard to see that the last one is different? Is that really that hard to see that some people, since it is different from the other choices, might see it for example as an advertisement for a car reseller company?
There might be a cultural side of things here, or maybe something related to personal taste... My first reaction was "why aren't your items in an alphabetical order?".
Because I sorted them by preference, by what is most likely to be the choice. It seemed natural to me that way.
Just trying to understand why some people disagree on this very specific topic.
The sort order doesn't really matter. Sort the list any way you want, it doesn't change anything about the fact that "drive it" is disfavoured as long as it is not handled the same way like "eat it" and "wear it". I believe this is better explained in http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-project/2009-08/msg00283.html . I would prefer it if you tried to find a mistake in the description of the actual problem rather than this analogy. -- Lubos Lunak KDE developer -------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s.r.o. e-mail: l.lunak@suse.cz , l.lunak@kde.org Lihovarska 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 972 190 00 Prague 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
