Presently I have to rely on the e2compr kernel patch to get all the software onto my hd and so therefore would need a replacement in a *BSD to get it working right.
Your most interesting point, however, is the presumption that the human species should LAST millions of years. I certainly hope that is not the case; THAT form of stagnation is the most hellish vision I can
contemplate.
And just what do you want to replace it? (Note remember unless you are a very talented cat you are part of the human race).
I feel extremely comfortable in the knowing that with the right technology there is *no* way the human race will die out. We can escape the earth and go to other planets or star systems but humanity will never die.
Ok let me elucidate about this one
1. Software that is new and well tested shouldn't have any bugs that are the fault of being obselete.
2. You can easily complain and get a fast response because you are running their newest stuff and don't have to get the excuse that you are running old depreciated technology.
That is the logic and I thank you to do a better job of actually *thinking* and *replying*. Maybe you like to use extremely old stuff but most don't.
Technically it's closer to military authoritarian states than communism. The point is that Russia is the most noticeable example of Marx's principles in existence today and they failed miserably and all the while ruining the lives of many people.
I don't see how even an idiot can hire more idiots unless the cirterion to hire such people is something that can easily fall victim to foolishness. Individual human differences are what allows for people to really do what they can and their interactions with others will randomly change things. Maybe an actual case study or some documented evidence of this so called "Peter Principle" or what not. Ancedotal evidence is not a good thing.
Living like the Russians did for a million years with having low levels of consumer goods, little recreation, the KGB watching you all the time. Real fun.
If you are full able to know that you do have the latest software on the machine then it's far easier to determine if said software is faulty in any way.
I decided to stop using slackware really quick after spending 10 hours swearing and cursing at the comptuer because of it's failings. Now I run a decent distro (debian) and feel comfortable about it.
They never introduced a fix... the sheer idea of running win95 for 43 days was silly, even to MS.
Why was that? I personally like to leave my computer on it's better for the electrical connections within the machine and parts due to thermal expansion/contraction.
It's better to have a stable and easy job than to be at odds with possible failure. In general if you were hired to be a programmer than most likely you will do something soon so keep reading and practicing coding until they do give you something to do.
I don't exactly relish the idea of spending the next million years with the same level of technology until we get incinerated by the sun. If the working class were ever to revolt and actually get rid of their current government and stay at their current level of technology life and society would stagnate and nothing about the human condition with all it's faults would ever change, ever.
Really I pitty you greatly. Jobs are just something you do to get money and usually your efforts are not directly correlated to giving yourself money but to make more money for those that own the company. Maybe that's why you have been married twice?
That's the problem with most of these "inventions" these things remind me of that episode of the simpsons where Homer creates these odd ball inventions that while they might potentially have uses are in fact pretty much impractical.
That's highly dubious isn't this more of a function of the CMOS than of anything else. I believe that most of the problem with fine resolution timing were related to the CMOS only allowing for 1 second accuracy in timing and date information.
Basically the UN just did some little statistical sampling about population density and growth rates for the earth and then arbitrarily said that in fact the earth had 6 billion people on it.
Also unless you want to constantly have to play tricks like date windowing you have to increase the number of bits a long double is to allow for storage of some parameter. Unless you get milisecond level timing you have problems.

Applications belong on a hard disk not a network.
It will be a cold day in hell before they can take my hard disk away from me.

Red Hat make a mistake and they should pay for it simple as that.
They never introduced a fix... the sheer idea of running win95 for 43 days was silly, even to MS.
Why was that? I personally like to leave my computer on it's better for the electrical connections within the machine and parts due to thermal expansion/contraction.
I find that the quality of the software seems to be slipping since the 5.0 days but maybe that's just me.
How can you make an informed decision of not getting into a sweatshop software company if you've never been to a one?
By hearing upbiased objective analysis of the situation from others but that's often rare.
It's better to have a stable and easy job than to be at odds with possible failure. In general if you were hired to be a programmer than most likely you will do something soon so keep reading and practicing coding until they do give you something to do.
Maybe the work is worth the effort?

How can this be more practical than say getting one of those head sets for your cell phone?
Then why don't they have apps or even a well documented method of calculating the exact time down to 1 millionth of a second then?

You cannot logically make the statement that AMD is cheaper without making relative comparisons for the new chips to their new chips.
Basically the UN just did some little statistical sampling about population density and growth rates for the earth and then arbitrarily said that in fact the earth had 6 billion people on it.
But I doubt he has a chip fabrication plant.
