There's an important distinction in English between "is used by" and "is in use by".
"Is used by" means that a program which might not currently be running requires the use of that software, whereas "is in use by" means that that program is running.
You can detect the former, but without some kind of well-designed central registry (!) you can't detect the latter.
You could just as well say, don't make [something] if it won't fit on a luxury yacht, since the people who own luxury yachts have the most disposable income.
The reason I post as AC (despite having an account) is that Slashdot is a pain in the ass to login to.
Huh?
I bookmark the login page and when I click on it I get the login page with my username and password already filled in, courtesy of the password save function in Firefox.
Another click and I'm in. What's so hard about that? It even works when I'm traveling and just dipping in to Slashdot using a tablet.
I have to wonder why we're trying to get three services, each with historical antagonism towards the other, to work together rather than simply have a force with ships, planes and armoured cars.
Buffalo!
If that were so, why is the device engraved in Greek rather than Egyptian Hieroglyphics?

For values of "hand-held", obviously.
I'd like to see the holster for that.
In the middle of the North Atlantic what is there to hit?
That's exactly what the captain of the Titanic said!
What part of Alcoholics Anonymous did you overlook?
For the same reason the military does not use (at at least doesn't admit to using) fully autonomous armed drones: software can't make judgement calls.
Yes, it does. They are called cruise missiles.

Most American corporations seem to think you can.
Hey! That's the combination to my luggage!
That's not a sensible argument.

But hot can be boring too. A diffuse plasma doesn't really have a lot of stuff going on in it either.
Oh, I dunno. Been to the Sun's corona lately?
A post of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Raspberry Pi TWO.
USB and Ethernet no longer associated.
So, how do you actually set the camera up when the configuration page requires the use of ActiveX....
People can't deal with leap seconds when they know they have to ... postponing it into one huge clusterfuck isn't going to improve matters.
Well, I don't know... we manage with a whole leap day every four years or so.

I burned my emails to a .pst and took a copy with me when I left an employer in the 2001 dot.com bust.
Unfortunately, since then my work is all Linux and I have never found a program which will properly read that .pst file.
You might want to find some other way of exporting the info.
No. Too many medium.com links.
Who the hell has monitors with audio in them?
Well, perhaps everybody who wants to connect their laptop to a TV.
You know, to watch a video in a hotel room or stream video from the internet.
Chance collisions with debris have eroded the camouflage covering, exposing the battle steel underneath.
I wouldn't give out my email address over the phone.
This is because it is fairly long and easy to miss-spell.
Instead, I send an email to the bank, using their email address, and of course my correct addy is then available as Sender.
This step ensures we both know we are talking to each other.
This can only help if you are talking to a financial institution.
What exactly other 2D and 3D tools are "entrenched in the Linux environment" exactly?
There's always Emacs...
Agree. Why can't they say "a third the volume?"
Slack thinking like "three times smaller" probably accounts for many bugs in software. Precision is important.
I have to wonder why we're trying to get three services, each with historical antagonism towards the other, to work together rather than simply have a force with ships, planes and armoured cars.
We do!
They are called the Marines...
Ta Da!
