The "distro franca" in 1994 was Slackware. All distros was a relative pain (and lots of floppies) to install in 1994, but Slackware was the clear leader.
Quite possibly. I haven't seen a study on why the rates are lower. Weeding out sociopaths that aren't extremely good at controlling their behavior probably comes automatically when you have to behave in the normal prison system for a while to get there.
Most of the computer in my play-room PXE-install a fresh dist when they reboot. Not from PB normally, but adding that detail makes the quip less fun.:)
The Swedish Language Council does not define words, they document how words are currently being used. Unlike say France, Sweden does not have an opinion on how it's citizens uses and forms the language.
This also means that when your word turns up on the list the fight for any trademark is pretty much lost. Google might have made the case that most people in Sweden use Google and thus most people really mean Google. By now they are fucked though, every Swedish journalist and blogger will use it in the generic sense just to spite Google.
Have you tried hiring specialists in the Valley? I do not care if I could train you to do something next year when I need someone now. I'm sure H1Bs and similar are misused, but It's no joke that tech companies have a problem finding people regardless of salary.
People always lie or play around with surveys. Statisticians know about this and know how to model around it.
Why can't the Jedi people have their invisible friend(s)? It's based on a derivation of the Jesus myth which in turn is based on earlier god-myths. I don't see why this particular derivation would be less valid.
Better they steal it than attorneys getting it. Attorneys produce nothing of interest, at least if a game company steals it there is a chance they produce something worth wile down the line.
MS broke the standard agreement for do-not-track, so I don't blame anyone for ignoring the setting if from IE10. The standard was there for a reason: It was the only chance any site would agree to following the headers intention.
For mirrors, that was something that was practiced a bit in the 90s; one brand of disks for each half of the mirror. It wasn't common though, and I haven't seen anyone do it this millennium. When you buy big storage systems you buy them preloaded with whatever disks the vendor recommends.
(And for the last year you where happy if the vendor could deliver enough disks to fill your order. Damn people building HDD factories in areas that gets flooded.)
You are not completely wrong for complicated hardware, but for things like sensors and stuff it doesn't need to be unmaintainable. Few if any of those NDAs also come with and demands to not write clear code and comment it.
You might be thinking of Nvidias old "Open Source" 2D drivers which where written by Nvidia and then showed through a code obfuscator before it was shipped.

I'm the only one allowed to log in, but I do allow myself root so you have a point there.
It's mostly to make sure something in the base image installation procedure doesn't rot.

"And I know outside of Oslo they have an island where you can "go to jail" and just live as normal with a house and stuff."
You are thinking of Bastøy, Norways possibly both cheapest prison and the one with the lowest reoffending rate: ~15%.
I agree, the US need to get with the program already.
At least a couple of times per week. Thanks for asking.
It not a backup if you can not restore a deleted file from it. A backup saves you from mistakes, redundancy saves you from broken hardware.
If it's one thing you take from backup this, please let it be this: Redundancy is not backup. Many tears have been shed from misunderstanding this.
A bit controller dependant, but yes, many sysadms keep a copy of the OS this way when they do risky upgrades.

I should probably add that I haven't worked for Opera for several years and don't really have a horse in this race.
Because I've read it.
Operas code is quite clean. Way easier to read and understand than Firefox's. Don't know how it compares to Webkit code-wise.

That sounds about right. Still waiting for someone to tell me why I find RAID5s of 16+ drives in the wild now and again.
Raidz2+ and a few hot spares is the shit. Do you build volumes with 16 drives though? I rarely go over 8 per volume and then stripe them.

Still waiting for a single-digit one to show up.
You win.
We are old, and we should feel old. :-/
