It's still that way with sound cards, wifi cards, and even graphic adapters, and even -- gasp!!! -- some monitor brightness controls on the various laptops I've tried to use over the years, and the secure boot stuff just confuses me. I haven't been able to get a boot cd to even boot on this stupid UFI or whatever 2013 laptop of mine;-(
I'm an American who is too young to ever know anything about that. Can you please give me a link or the period's name or something so that I may know more??
It is **widely** known that Obama is largely incapable of speaking without either notes or a teleprompter. Just last month, he had to prematurely end a speech, after only 30 seconds, because he had neither available.
In Texas, at least, "you'd of" is 100% acceptable as part of our English lexicon. It is a double contraction of "you would have".
Our other lexicon additions include the contraction "Y'all" ("you all") and "ogravy" for "Oh my gravy!", albeit I only hear the last one said by the ol' timers.
What I'm basically saying, reduced to its logical beginnings, is:
Treat all cultures as we do Aboriginal cultures: Let them persist as they have been for millennia, without obstruction, intervention, or moral superiority. Let each region, culture evolve under the laws of natural selection until they, too, have reached our (white, Japanese, etc.) level of technology.
And, yes, I believe this should eventually be carried out on even a regional basis, so that some (many?) parts of great megastates, like the United States and China, do not have antibiotics and the wheretodos either invent them or prove their mettle in order to secure immigration to more technologically advanced enclaves.
The bottom 50% of the people in the world had a **far** higher standard of living relative to today's bottom 50 as late as the mid-1750s. The Industrial Revolution (but more specifically, widespread (and careless) dissemination of antibiotics and factory farming), has done more to screw over more people than ever before.
There is a simple, elegant solution, that will get all the of the sentimentalists all atwitter, and that is:
Restrict all trading of factory farming equipment, antibiotics and other life-saving technologies to countries and/or societies which have not yet developed them. This will correct many of the great imbalances of the world, and within 20-50 years, too.
As a proponent of microstates (ala Snow Crash / The Diamond Age), I **heartily** encourage you to try to start such a community!
However, as a fervent disliker of the GPL, LGPL, and FSF (to mention nothing of the horrors of the AGPLv3!), I would be *most* interested in knowing how your community plans to subsidize programmers' salaries? I presume the only could they can create will be FSF-sanctioned and approved, as well?
Would you treat software engineers as a sort of priest class, and give them communal food, housing, and Internet connections? (filtered, of course, to only allow websites served via Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP (or other suitably-licensed stacks)!)
Just make sure you make **zero** modifications to the LGPL'd stuff, or you're going to be in a **world** of hurt, as modifying its code transmogrifies it into the GPL (no, seriously).
KDE, lost its entire Git repository and mirrors becuase of a long-term, highly corrupted EXT4 file system that did not show any warnings until the server was rebooted.
I've been happily using the XFS file system since the early-to-mid-2000s and have never had a problem. It is rock solid and much faster than ext3/ext4 in my experience, tested a lot longer than Btrfs, and handles the millions and millions of small files on redditmirror.cc very effectively.
There is no income tax, capital gains tax, purchase or sales tax, VAT or capital transfer tax in Bahamas. This applies not only to individuals, but also to all resident corporations, partnerships and trusts.

You've just had the great fortune of having hardware that works with linux. Me? I haven't had that since, oh, 2007-2008 or thereabouts.
Linux support on laptops is ABYSMAL from my point of view.

You're saying résumé shouldn't work?

He was quoting the article, idiot.

Would these piracy scans be successful if the user was not logged into the domain via, say, their own personal laptop?
Or, more to the point, what is the best way for a user not to show up in these scans? Would a firewall help? What would I block?

Sadly, that assertion is patently untrue.

I'm curious ;-)
Sometimes we as a species take precautions against really scary things. It's like being afraid of kissing someone who has rabid HIV.
Sure, chances are, it'll be fine. But what if you or him have a cold sore? oops, there goes your life!

I honestly do not care about Firefox one bit.
I don't even test new web designs in Firefox; only IE, Safari and Chrome.
Their autoupdates are the most painful of any app short of Java that I know of.
Here's the direct download link to all of their published files...

I had to look this up...

It's not "your part of the problem", it's "You're part of the problem."
I refuse to listen to someone who's grammar is so messed up.

Everyone expects apprenticeship systems to be free.
Just check out www.phpu.cc for a very cheap and very cost effective PHP mentoring system.
NO ONE is willing to pay for quality programming mentoring.
Just look at how unsuccessful PHPU.cc is at just $50/month.
No one values education any more or thinks everything should be free free free, so quality products whither and die.
No, Amazon wouldn't do that.
But any ecommerce company that could move to, say, Mexico or Canada probably would!
Someone obviously hasn't been taking their meds recently!!
STRAW MAN!
