If I see someone looking at doors and windows, taking notes, then putting a flyer on my door, I'll ask him what he's doing, why, and find out what he's actually up to.
So like if you bought a new car, and within 15 minutes you noticed a problem, went back to the dealership and they gave you a used car, that would be OK with you?
If you take your broken car back don't they fix it and give it back to you? I.E. don't they give you a used car? Maybe it was you that used it but it's still used.
I can see the problem if we're talking about underpants, but...
But what about those of us that use Free Software(*) because we are religous zealots and communists in league with terrorsists and organised criminals? Will nobody think of us?
Oh well, off to spend another happy day destroying companies and spreading viruses.
The "bomb the cities" plans were all made when the US didn't have enough bombs and the CEP was shit.
When the delivery systems got better and there were more warheads available the SIOP was:
1. Soviet nuclear missile sites, bomber airfields, and submarine tenders. 2. Other military sites away from cities, such as air defenses. 3. Military sites near cities. 4. Command-and-control centers. 5. Full-scale "spasm" attack.
I.E. "nuke 'em till they glow" was the last resort.
But that was irrelevant - the question was whether the US could "kill every living [person] in Russia". I contend that physically the US could get a damn sight closer to that (insane) target than trying the same thing on China, despite Russia's huge geographical extent.
Stuxnet wasn't espionage, it was an attempt to destroy things.
It also was not targeted at China. Stuxnet is not a reason for China to attack us.
I see Solo blasting Greedo I begin to thing I might need to shoot Solo first some day.
I would argue that stealing classified information and destruction of hardware are pretty similar in the eyes of the government. They are both attacks.
Never worked to well for me 'cos I could never remember which if those icons/buttons on the status bar matched which terminal. I find looking at the thumbnails easier.
Sorry if I was appearing to nag, it's just that I've seen this "Gnome3 doesn't let you have multiple windows/apps open" thing quite a few times and I don't understand where it comes from.
Personally, I have situations where I want more than one app visible at a time. I want to control what is covered by what. I want to put the app where I want it.
In what way does Gnome 3 stop you having more than one app visible at a time?
When Mac and Windows users complain that Linux doesn't work, I really don't know what they mean; my experience of late has been that I have fewer annoyances and more things just work, with little-to-no need for configuration when using Linux. (Computers in my household running a mixture of Win 7, 8 and Debian at the moment.)
As far as I can see when people complain that Linux doesn't work they're usualy talking about Ubuntu.
You can have my Mac when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.:-)
I'm not going back. I'm exactly as you describe - my desktop runs OS X and my mobile devices run iOS, but my servers run Debian.
My desktop runs Debian, my laptop runs Debian. my servers run Debian, my SheevaPlug runs Debian, my phone runs Debian. My tablet runs Android - it's a piece of shit - but I'm working on it.

So use Gnome3 then.
Why do people confuse Unity with Gnome3? They're not the same.

He's a double glazing salesman. Shoot first!
I don't know - if the new ones are broken maybe you're better off with a refurb - presumably they tested it after refurbishing it. :-)
Anyway, have a nice day.

Well of course not.

But are either of them microprocessor controlled.
(Seriously - who needs a programmable rice cooker? That's overkill).

So you would nuke someone for spying on you?
Ok, that's reasonable, thanks.
Never worked to well for me 'cos I could never remember which if those icons/buttons on the status bar matched which terminal. I find looking at the thumbnails easier.
And, for some unexplained reason, stopped eating rice.
What's going on? It's a stealth "I love my iphone" story. Nothing to see here, please move along...
So which app replaced his rice cooker?
"I don't eat rice much anymore."
Bizzare.

Would save a lot of trouble.
Stuxnet, discovered in 2010, was hardly the first salvo to be fired.

But those are examples of espionage, not warfare.

I'm kind of amazed they couldn't spring for a full ATLAS system, I mean, TITAN, what losers.
Did you miss the part where they said this was at Oak Ridge?
I.E. bombs!
I.E. unlimted budget for better nukes now!
Stuxnet.
Here we go again.
Anytime I see "Debian based" I reach for my Debian install cd/flash key/tftp server.
WHY!
What "Debian based" distro is better than the real thing?
Sorry, don't understand.
You mean you like minimising things? That's not having multiple apps visible!
Who cares about the fallback mode.

George 3 on an ICL 1900.
Unless you have the cash for a 1906 in which case you want George 4 to use the paging hardware.
But I can't get things done when I try out all the distros. There are so many! Somebody tell me what the best distro is!
Debian.
Next question?
