18 Five characters seems to be normal for online banking here. Anyway,
19 after three failed attempts, the account is locked. I can unlock it by
20 giving my PIN and a TAN.

29 They watch :)
30 No, there's no other purpose. I have at least one instance of XEyes on
31 my desktop since I found this little application in 1992 when I first
32 started using a Sun workstation. But it is since some months only that I
33 had the idea to have multiple ones. Well, that's the nice thing about
34 plasmids, they stay behind application windows, so the do not get in the
35 way.

47 I learnt a lot on the KDE mailing list (which is also a nice one, with
48 helpful people). Especially about this Akonadi stuff that the new KDEPIM
49 is using.

87 Is this a plasmoid? This would be a nice one to have.

93
94 Like Yohan said :)
95
96 Though I'd like if plasmoids could also be made sticky, on desktops
97 and/or activities. Maybe they'll implement this, I think this is on the
98 list. Or does 4.7 already have this feature?
