    This is quite common in the military

    Not all military use only Microsoft software (ops, got it: you are talking about U.S. as if they're the entire world, huh?)

    because things are so locked down that the administrators can't even do their jobs to get security patches for their products due to some overzealous corporate firewall that tries to block any info from getting in.

    Wrong: this is caused by a poor desktop O.S. (that, up to a recent past, made a simple user account administer the entire system without the "hassle" that use another user account...) - know what O.S. I'm talking about here?

    seems that you are getting $$ to advertise M$ products here...

  10. it's the contrary of my perception...

    * and for Android: cyanogenmod seems to remove all carrier/maker insane bloat, to me...

  11. "Adroid bloat" in this case :P

  12. nice catch!

  13. It's like saying health insurance is 99.9% useless because you only spend a tiny fraction of your life in doctor's offices.

    No, it's not (what a terrible analogy!)

  14. Its presence represents your ability to go anywhere you want at a moment's notice, at a very low cost

    Only after a several thousand dollar buy, right? And there's gas/ethanol/diesel/electric cost and parking fess (there's public transportation that "represents your ability to go anywhere you want at a moment's notice, at a very low cost", and for real low cost, in some cities though...)

  15. Get ready for third world style "traffic safety". Overloading, low bridges, whatever, rules are for other people

    You are not speaking for Brazil (and for "general Latin America"): the legislation to achieve traffic safety is pretty good (European-like, I think...) - you are talking about region of India, right?

    maybe a coup would be best

    an apparently fake coup was announced there some weeks ago (and used for excuse for firing several army members, and jailing several journalists) - the president, Erdoan, is nothing more than an dictator.

    * any external influence outside United Nations is not welcome (see that CIA?)

  18. Can you link to a page describing how to install Linux-on-bare-hardware that boots without prompting the user to wipe it?
