If you dont know how to ground this properly please ask or hire someone who knows what they are doing. You could kill someone with improper grounding in case of a lightning strike.
I am being a stickler I know, but can we please call it properly the X Window System, X or X11. Conflating the X Window System and X11 into the X11 Window System just sounds silly. Much like X Windows. That is all.
The recommendations for beta blockers in ST Elevation myocardial infarction and Non ST Elevation myocardial infarction are set forth by the American College of Cardiology, after careful review of the literature. Link.
Implying that physicians don't know what they are doing when administering beta blockers to ST/Non-STEMI is ridiculous. We fully acknowledge that data is conflicting or insufficient. It is rightly up to the physician to decide whether or not to administer beta blockers after physicial examination of the patient and all the associated data.
I hate apple fanbois. They are the worst trash on the planet. I have a macbook pro (gift) and I tried OSX for a couple hours. It stinks. OSX got deleted very quickly and in went linux. Now my mac is basically a PC running linux and X. As opposed to a PC running BSD and Aqua. So I guess my gripe is really with Aqua. Aqua stinks. But I have to say that apple did a good job with the macbook design.
In his short story, "Red Star, Winter Orbit" William Gibson writes,
Korolev stared at the man, who had the blundering, careless look of someone drunk on freedom since birth.
"But you don't even have a launchpad," he said.
"Launchpad?" the man said, laughing. "What we do, we haul these surplus booster engines up the cables to the balloons, drop 'em, and fire 'em in midair."
"That's insane," Korolev said.
"Fot us here didn't it?"
Korolev nodded. If this was all a dream, it was a very peculiar one. "I am Colonel Yuri Vasilevich Korolev."
I continue to be amazed by William Gibson's vision.
I highly recommend this short story, and his entire short story anthology "Burning Chrome."

TM uses a special feature in Leopard to keep track of modified files and directories, in such a way that TM itself does not have to scan for modified files, but is informed by the OS of modified files. This notification does not even require a deamon process. Now I do believe one can wrap together something which does backups. But standard unix/linux tools don't offer the above facilities - AFAIK
Those of us who have used UNIX for a long time know the merits of the UNIX directory structure. There is no need for it to change because a few new users think they know better.
The default install of any distribution should not break the UNIX directory structure. If there is an option to download a different version which will be easier for new users to manage, I am all for it.
I haven't seen this mentioned and thought it might be useful to someone. If you need to get to your mail from multiple machines, you can use Gmail (or another email provider), POP, Mutt and Gnu Screen on your home computer. Then you can ssh into the computer and do whatever you need to do. Your mail is "synchronized" because you are only changing the local mailboxes.
I saw a few comments about how Google is a public company and how would making a new distribution make them any money. A Google branded linux has instant brand recognition, and corporations/individuals looking for a Microsoft replacement are more likely to trust this brand name. Google could then decide to sell support to those who indeed install the Google branded linux operating system.
I don't think that Microsoft will be hurt by this at all, poor stability or otherwise. Mac OSX will be running on Mac hardware only and I doubt that the average consumer will shell out the extra $500 - $1000 to buy an Apple machine as opposed to a Dell or other relatively cheap brand. This is assuming that Apple will not lower their prices significantly when they move to Intel processors.
Now, if they lower their hardware prices to be competitive with the wintel machines all bets are off and I agree that hardware that might run MacOSX, Windows and *nix will be more likely to make it into the living room.
As a "fast twitch" player who's been playing first person shooters for longer than I care to admit, I highly doubt I would ever use this product. It forces you to use the much less precise muscles of the shoulder and upper arm as opposed to the muscles of the forearm. I'll take my carpal tunnel syndrome thank you.
Build tools are up to date on debian. Build your own bleeding edge sofware and place in/usr/local. Easy. And I don't want to hear about "But I don't waaannna build my own! There should be a package!" Tough.
I stated in my original post that actions may be punishable. Why are you confusing action with speech? Obviously there are laws protecting the individual against bodily harm. If I feel at any point above that because of your actions I am in danger, I have the right to defend myself. If I incorrectly surmise the situation, and retaliate against you, then I am at fault, and will be charged accordingly.
Your argumkent is flawed. Everything that you stated in your post is action, not speech. Attempted murder is illegal because there is an actual attempt. A better is the death threat. I agree that there is some speech that is not protected (in the USA), but the type of instigative speech not protected is that which has no reasonable arena for discourse. Take for example the following:
"I am going to murder so and so." vs. "Do you think that so and so should be killed?" One is illegal the other not.
Even though you don't like my ideas, I hope that you would defend to the death my right to express them:)
The medical industry may be booming but it is not true that hospitals themselves are. If for example, the hospital is part of a larger corporate entity (eg. Kaiser), then they may be making money. But the same is not true of other hospitals. As an example I will give you Mount Sinai, NY which was $30,000,000 in the hole for 2002 as were several other hospitals in NY/NJ. Hospitals are required to provide service regardless of the ability of the patient to pay (assuming the patient is first seen in the ER - service/charity care).
And obviously malpractice insurance companies are raking in the cash.

Haha, thanks for the great laugh!
You're correct. I'm not an Ubuntu-n00b. My nick is from the poem "Childe Roland to the Dark Tower Came."
You are also making the assumption that I am one of those people (your exact terminology was "asspirate") that think everyone should have sudo access.
And lastly: My god man! Get a grip, it was only a joke. Develop some coping skills please.
unless you're running as root (bad, bad, BAD!!!!) I think you're forgetting something :)

This could potentially cause them to become even more extreme in their views or even spur them to action.
Until such action actually takes place, there is no justification for censorship. If we retaliate against potential threats, where does it end?
I think it is much more reasonable to let this take its natural course and if objectionable actions do take place we can punish the offenders.
