    I'm a *nix only person, and have a few Macs. But, for technical work, like data acquisition and signal processing, you have to use homebrew or macports to install software written for Linux. it doesn't make sense; just use Linux.

  5. "...human-made greenhouse gases are responsible f" on Wisconsin's Department of Natural Resources Site No Longer Says Humans Cause Climate Change (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    When people write a statement such as this subject, it is not surprising that there is so much confusion and misunderstanding, leading to heat with no light. Any logical person considering that climate change has always occurred, since long before there were humans, should be able to construct a sentence that expresses the thought that s/he is trying to convey, in a more nuance manner which would contain at least a modicum of truth.

    ARM is good. I have Ubuntu on an HP 14 based on the Nvidia Tegra K1, so I can do math with CUDA.

  9. No, it's about cheap labor. All kids are demanding access to electronics, they don't need coding classes for that.

  11. Dear Piss, S/he provided the link to the CNN article being quoted "The long, strong arm of the NSA". Did you bother to take a look? Who are you referring to as a paranoid ass pontificator, CNN?

    According to Wikipedia: In 2013, Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) introduced a bill, Aaron's Law (H.R. 2454, S. 1196 [209]) to exclude terms of service violations from the 1986 Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and from the wire fraud statute. The Aaron's Law bill died in committee in May 2014, reportedly due to Oracle Corporation's financial interests. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron_Swartz#Congressional_investigations

    I've got two Odroids and a Banana Pro. Standard Arch Linux on the Ordoids and Fedora on the BPro. The Odroids especially, are excellent. But if you work for Intel, maybe you don't care.

  14. Re:Word on NASA's Ten-Year Mission To Study All the Ways the Arctic Is Doomed · · Score: 1

    To say that "the Earth has a history of change in its ecosystems" is an enormous understatement. Before the current ice ice, people could have built houses from trees up there instead of blocks of ice. When the interglacial ends, everything will go back to frozen. THAT'S "Doomed".

    Assuming that any past state of the climate is better than any future state of the climate is naive. Find something important to expend your activist energies on.
