You can't have regular solar panels; you need ammonia-cooled solar panels. You can't simply walk out and fix it, there's no air. You can't use a wrench, because conservation of momentum means you rotate around the bolt. And after all that and you fix it, a piece of junk from a Chinese satellite killer takes you and your new solar panel out.
This is why we're still whizzing around in LEO. Imagine doing this crap 100 million miles away when you can't "just" get more ammonia if you really needed it.
Hardware loss leader, designed to make money on the backend either via servies or advertising deals to the manufacturer. Instantly hacked to be more or less useful, thereby negating the business model which produced it.
If his name was Joe Smith nobody would care about him. People get off on talking about him because they get to use the word "Musk" in normal conversation. Can he just go away, like Kim Dotcom, or any of the other "personalities" ?
You feel a certain way, and you have symptom X? Sorry, Citizens, DSM says you have Unavoidable Statism, and now you and your children and your DNA swabs are public property forever.
Most MySQL/MariaDB users wont care at all about this, because there are millions of them who are not Slashdot or Amazon or Facebook - this DB silently powers millions of Internet connected things, and it's just a given that it works, performs, has fit-for-purpose stability. It's a sign of how far OSS has come when people have the luxury of quibbling over WHICH free, capable DB they want to base their business model on.
Unlike robot Cylons, humans can't live in outer space without an absurd amount of technical automation. The same argument can be made if you replace 'networks' and 'computers' with 'air'.
Some of this suffers from Good Enough syndrome. Do you really need 5 different mail servers? Is the crypto algorithm underneath SSH the problem with people using SSH?
Great stuff, and I'm sure its technically slick, but its (potentially) a lot of work to migrate this stuff to another platform, so why do it when there are reasonable alternatives?
It's just more hipsterism. These dbags are a scourge on modern American culture, with their PBR, artisan pickles, Instagram and crochet.
Not that pinball isn't totally awesome - but its only getting a resurgence because there's a bunch of high disposable income millenials who think they discovered it.
Granted its not free or cheap, but IBM will ship you a prebuilt rack of 'stuff' that will load 5TB/hour and scan 128GB/sec. PGStrom came out in the last year. Custom hardware/ASIC/FPGA for this sort of thing is not new.

You already have to show photo ID for most of the things listed. Tagging on "and logging onto the Internet" at the end is just sensationalist trash.
Hint: if you have a driver's license, the Gubmint knows who you are.

How is does using a new WM make a different distro? If I take Fedora and replace the default shell with zsh, can I call it Gothmollix?
Does anyone really care if some third world cesspool disconnects from the Internet?

We all have our roles to play I suppose.

Navel-gaze much?
"ooh look at me I'm so dotcom and trendy and chat on the Internet! ooh!"
Try working.

Meanwhile, their work allows you to become successful, FOR FREE... so you know, they're definitely screwing you.

if you think the US Government works for the best interests of its citizens, you're hopelessly naive

Isn't this what Airwolf did when it went supersonic?
Go straight to fifth base. If you get there, you win, if not, you're saved the trouble of trying for the others.

This does not equate with "Just Works".
So the Sox can still get the game in, right?
I haven't counted Usenet posts lately, so can anyone check with Netcraft?
What is Linode? Would it kill an editor to include that in TFS?
