We won't be walking in the open air any time in the next many centuries, maybe never if we're unable to successfully terraform the planet (Venus would likely be a more appealing target for that anyway), but there's no reason to believe we can't survive in artificial habitats.
Do you happen to have any insights to provide to us about terraforming Venus? It used to be called the twin planet of Earth when I was a child, but now all I can think if it is as a living hell.
We can send metallurgical robots to get iron on Mars. An miner robots to produce concrete. And farmer robots to to plow the land. And... more robots. It is all feasible within a century or two with current technology. Not saying it's easy or affordable.
I also avoid anything from my ISP that is not just for internet services, and fortunately, I've never had to install anything from them. Also, I don't install any app that provides the same service that a webpage does, even when there is claim that it is for security. That makes me feel like an average slashdotter.
On the outside Academia may look like 1984, but on the inside it looks more like Brazil. Curiously enough, in 1984, Brazil was ruled by a (capitalist) dictatorship.
No he didn't, but good job with your limp little spin, you weak minded wing nut. Your masters at Fox and the Koch brothers and even Trumpy must be so proud of you.
Actually they are all proud of themselves. You are a product of their creation after all.
Don't be fooled! Obama is a politician, politicians lie all the time. It only happens that some lies turn out to be the truth. Just because the guy said that Obama lied doesn't mean he is a conservative.
A huge enough amount of monkeys typing in computers, with no time constraints, will eventually produce all of KDE source code, that will compile on the first run.
All of the exemples people are mentioning are mistakes. My question is why would one do rm -rf/ intentionally so as to use --preserve-root to prevent whichever problems?
There is no such a thing as "bleeding obvious". Overfishing *does* cause decline in fishing population, but one must ascertain the such "overfishing" did occur. The cause could be some other thing, though, like global warming. BTW, what is bleeding obvious for some is not for everyone, so I had to tell many people where I live that *anthropogenic* global warming is not the "bleeding obvious".
The Cartesian Doubt at its finest. Anyway, the study is not so useless as it sounds, but a better headline would be "Blaming overfishing for fish population decline not just guesswork".
Also, I thought Republicans didn't like the government interfering in business? Wouldn't forcing a company to redo its entire operations just to keep everything in America fall under government interference? How long until people realize that President Trump won't be able to do half the things he claims he'll do?
To me, such an idea sounds anti-American altogether.
I've got the impression that security of MacOS relies strongly on the low market share and supposed lack of interest of the potential crackers. Am I too wrong?
That usually works for Mageia, especially on the days after a new release. Every time I torrented Mageia ISO (or a Mandriva ISO before Mageia) I could get the file in less than 4 hours.

What? Paying cash in a terraced place?
No. When I say current technology, I mean something that engineers could project and have built within a decade.
That is what I thought!
The minimal salary in Brazil is about US$ 3100 a year by today's rate.

Eventually you will need the kitchen sink.
Literally.

For what? As a parameter for the command rm -rf /? Why would anyone use the command rm -rf / to begin with?
Yes, you are.
Tell me: you have an app for posting this nonsense in /., don't you?
I guess the truth in most cases is either B or C, with C being the most likely situation.
Should they wait for one and then act?

How can one misspell terraced as terrorist? Did he use autocorrect? I would demand more details if I really cared.

DMCA is the new Feudalism.
Yes.
OK. Thanks for your appreciation.
