Easy. Move to Europe and you can have a nice Focus hatchback with 6 speed and diesel. Totally worth it. I drove one in July on the autobahns. At home my wife drives a Caliber CVT and it's the one tranny she hasn't been able to kill. Yet.
Is the number of Ubuntu users declining? Or are they going after first time users?
I don't care if all the old timers hate Ubuntu, because they have 300 other distros to choose from. It's the converts that need something stable, E-Z, and close enough to Windows look that they aren't scared away. So I recommend Ubuntu or Zorin.
Maybe they're playing bad cop-good cop. BHO got his peace prize, and they decided it was Putin's turn. Bottom line, USA gets out of a jam, Assad gets dissed without getting his ass kicked, Putin's still a pal of Syria.

Sorry?? There's not a straight mile of road in the country, the roads are much narrower than in the USA, the shoulders are nonexistent or lined with tall hedges, the road names change every intersection. And there's lots of American tourists trying to drive left-handed. I hate driving there.
Jeez, I'm not moving to YOUR country (does everyone wear tinfoil hats?). Here in NY, National Gid sells us both gas and electric, and makes neither, just passes them along. So they don't care too much one way or the other.
The older KC-135's used to have water injection to get better performance under certain takeoff conditions. Used to leave a lot of sooty exhaust, too. I think they figured out how to tune the combustion better by around 30 years ago.
I used to waste time arguing with idiots about HAARP, Orgone, SBX, and other hot topics that I had expertise in (high power RF and electronics), and explained the scientific principles involved. "My mind is made up; don't confuse me with the facts" was the punch line of most of these encounters.
I'm not going to bother any more unless my neighbor starts spraying vinegar.
We tried that, but it's too expensive and covers too little an area.
Something that does work is to use chaff, like in this article. Say you're starting a war and don't want to be tracked by radar. You send up a rocket into the stratosphere with a million shards of metallized fiberglas (which weighs a few pounds total) and disperse them over a wide area. They float down over several hours; meanwhile all the other guy's radar sees is a bright cloud where normally he'd see your invading bombers.
Unfortunately for you I just turned on my high bandwidth radar and I can now see the fast-moving specular points on your bombers through your widely dispersed, non-doppler shifting chaff. But oh well.
The other problem with chaff is it has to be cut to a certain wavelength, and it's narrow bandwidth unless you cut them randomly and use a lot more.
The dipoles in polar orbit at 2000 miles might have worked but took a lot of copper; we can do that better and easier now using HAARP, which makes an artificial ionosphere mirror. Meteors do the same thing; this week would be a good time to listen with your HF radio.
Why not just put Ubuntu on them? Low development cost, better performance, and they can make their money being a hardware company. They always were better at hardware: mice and Kinect. And, ummmm.... I dunno.

I went to Uganda in July, and was told the same thing happens there.
How well did that work for the Branch Davidians? Left as an exercise for the student.
No. Why??

We still have our 20?? year old. It replaced a Heathkit, which I built in, umm...1975 I think. For the 3 hours a week we watch it, not a big deal.
Please, call them Texans, not slaves.
Better yet:

Those rich people run their stock exchange on Linux.
Mint is on 14, so that's one better.
It's called Zorin.
That's a drop in the bucket. I hate the overuse of the word "literally", so I won't.

Hillary Clinton?
Can upstate NY, Michigan, PA, Ohio, and Ontario have their own country? Bonus: never having to wait in those long lines at the border.

The coming cataclysmic extermination of the human race by the collision with Nibiru, of course. Don't you surf Youtube?

There's an "e" on the end of Van Damme. Dank U.

Do you know any good commies?
"Give" you? I don't think so.
