Seriously. Every top rated comment is saying "nutjob" "conspiracy theory" "conspiracy theorist" "Fake News".
Stop and consider the evidence on a point by point basis. Then consider that Bill Clinton is a KNOWN pervert. Then consider former speaker of the house Hastert literally went to prison for pedophilia. Then watch all the videos of Biden being a creep. Then look at the digitized wanted posters for the abductors of Madeleine McCann. Then look at the artwork that the Podesta brothers have all over their house.
I mean, I don't believe every conspiracy theory. But the evidence here is frankly overwhelming that SOMETHING is fucked up, at least with the Podestas, and possibly with an incredibly large cross-section of Washington DC.
Then consider the motives of people who might have actionable blackmail evidence on all the most powerful members of congress/senate/executive.
It's AT LEAST worth looking into. Then once you look into it, it's hard not to think there's some there. But whatever, just keep watching your corporate television narratives that are obvious lies and fraud and call the rest of us crazy.
Many, many years ago. Yes. LOL. Since then I've been the IT director for 13 school districts, ran a data center that processed millions of mails per hour for ISPs all across the country, and also built dozens of dental offices in Arizona and California. I'm a very experienced Debian admin, and have moved most of our newer servers and services over to Devuan already. Works great!
Except in practice. Debian 8 was utter fail in all 3 of the data centers I manage. So many bizzare crashes we gave up after 3 days of testing. Wheezy and earlier had never had any issues. So for us anyway, as a longtime Debian shop, we've just been sticking with wheezy until something sensible came along. So far, in testing, Devuan had been incredibly sensible, stable, and reliable. Exactly like wheezy has been.
Oh, and I don't do compiz because that breaks xrdp. I bet there's a way to get separate desktops in Mate, but I didn't see an easy option and don't really have time to track down and hack largely cosmetic issues.:/
I meant sharing bandwidth, CPU cycles, memory.... Like I'd like all my devices to be one big super computer with local interfaces. So I could play GTA on my weak android tablet, for instance. I'm always frustrated at the slowness of my old work laptop when it's less than 2 feet away from my brand new i7 with 16gb of ram.
I can't think of many improvements that would be possible to Linux mint Debian edition. Though it would be cool if all my devices shared all resources real time I guess. Oh, and I'd like my various desktops to have different wall papers.
This guy. Lmde mate flies on all hardware. It's prettier than Mac or windows too, and comes with every app I need preinstalled. Plus I can rsync backups to any machine in the house. Fuck windows and Mac. They are years behind mint at this point.
I'll use it happily instead. The binary log files alone makes systemd a dead idea. The lack of being modular and doing one thing well would also make it a done deal, but I'd say that's secondary, though still high up!
A. There is a fundamental aspect of space/time we don't understand. (Maybe there is some type of Aether?) B. We don't understand gravity over long distances. (Maybe it has a different effect over longer distances than we are aware) C. We are not measuring something else properly. Light, time, distance....?
This whole "dark matter" thing has been unreasonably preposterous from the word go.
While the RT agenda is fairly obvious and I don't question that some of the info is skewed in some way, I find it a much more reliable outlet than CNN, MSNBC, FOX, or the plethora of other vacuous and blatantly false media outlets available here in the US.
I can find some decent reporting on the RT, and almost none of it is about Honey Boo Boo and Kim Kardashian, so......... It's a much better news source than most of the gheystream media.

What do these movies have in common? Great plots, great concepts, and great execution. Some of them are big budget, but most of them did not have to be (besides Braveheart and ESB obviously). Hollywood makes almost nothing but crap now. It's not really about the budget or the star factor. IDIOTS!
Jenny McCarthy isn't the problem. Barbara Walters isn't the problem. Measles, Autism, and Vaccines aren't even the problem. The problem is that these insane and corrupt pharmaceutical companies have such a poor history of engendering human health that nobody trusts them at all any more. I'm pro science. I'm pro vaccine. But how can I justify endangering my kid by injecting an infant with the history of Glaxosmithkline? That seems riskier than ANY disease. Give me a vaccine from a company with a history of good human health decisions, and I'll gladly use it!
I know right, if you're going to waste all that money, why not waste it on solar power plants or thorium salt reactors? That would pay for itself eventually no matter what, fix the environment, and they'd STILL be getting something for the imaginary bank bubble they're already locked into.
Long Answer: For a while maybe. But as Android & Linux continue dominating in the mobile/server spaces and Linux Mint keeps gaining on the desktop then long term they are screwed. They don't have the best OS. They don't have the cheapest OS. In fact, other than market dominance I can't think of a single reason anyone is using their OS. The last good OS they put out was XP SP3. That was over a decade ago. They are the walking dead at this point. Steam client for Linux is the first bell toll of their inevitable demise.

For many of our servers, Debian 8 was a speed regression. And a huge stability regression.

Yep. I'm waiting for Devuan or another Wheezy Fork to save the day. Let's hope the corporate ass hats can't ruin that too!
I like your style. But I'm super used to Wheezy now, and it's been rock solid for us.
Your post would be fine except Debian is already dead because of NSA/systemd.
Yep. 8 has been total fail in our datacenters.
Virtio issues, broken scripts, utter fail at logging...
We're sticking with 7 until something better comes along.
Oh, there are many instances where it doesn't work. We've reverted to wheezy in our data centers and are waiting for devuan or another path forward.
Oh, and I don't do compiz because that breaks xrdp. I bet there's a way to get separate desktops in Mate, but I didn't see an easy option and don't really have time to track down and hack largely cosmetic issues. :/

More Gains for LINUX.
Either:
A. There is a fundamental aspect of space/time we don't understand. (Maybe there is some type of Aether?)
B. We don't understand gravity over long distances. (Maybe it has a different effect over longer distances than we are aware)
C. We are not measuring something else properly. Light, time, distance....?

Autonomous solar power airships are a much better idea. Navigation would be easier and you end a lot of other driving problems on the way.
I just want my phone, tablet, and i5 desktop to act as a cluster and share cycles and memory. This seems easier than most of Google's moonshots.

So would this be more or less energy dense as a storage medium than graphene ultracapacitors?

What's the memory like? How many charge cycles are they good for?
Or should I just start working on building my portable micro thorium salt reactor?
