    On the contrary, they are almost certainly more white than the general population. By that I mean, you did not get first post.

  2. Re:Good to keep in mind on How the Critics of the Apollo Program Were Proven Wrong · · Score: 2

    Operating expenses for something like the Iraq war (or a new, unnecessary war in Iran) could be cut 100% without touching the kind of research programs you are talking about.

    Let the space industry become fully privatized, except for the parts which have military relevance (since the military still isn't fully privatized). Then the invisible hand can decide optimally how we will invest in manned spaceflight. No wasted surplus labor. Right?

    Which are the "more controlling and hateful religions" you would like to exclude?

    Please consult any source, like this http://www.ontheissues.org/john_kerry.htm to see a huge pile of statements which Romney would never agree with. You can still say there are no good options, but it isn't correct to say that there are no differences

    Doing it regularly has nothing to do with it, rather what is needed is a sustainable profit from doing it. That still isn't there and it won't get there by wishing hard

  7. Re:Microsoftesque? on Alibaba Says Google Threatened Acer With Banishment From Android · · Score: 1

    Acer is plenty big enough to run an app store in China. Or did you forget that China is fucking huge?

    Sure they do, vis-a-vis their incorporeal proxies

    They don't need to actually have one, it would be bad press, so they do precisely the same thing by methods which won't get such bad press

    If God is just then you will end up on the sexual offenders list, forever a pariah, for some trivial thing like people peeping into your window while you are naked

    X is remote "any time it's needed," except for all the many many times when the app was specifically not written to support it, or was written in a way where the performance is unusably bad when run remotely.

  12. Re:What the hell is Wayland? on Ubuntu Delays Wayland Plans, System Compositor · · Score: 3, Insightful

    you already generally have to use something like VNC or xpra (layered over X, not really using it) in order to get reasonable performance or to detach and reattach remotely. X might seem like the answer until you try to use it... it isn't good enough because it's nowhere near usable as GNU screen.

  13. Re:What the hell is Wayland? on Ubuntu Delays Wayland Plans, System Compositor · · Score: 1

    there are already vastly many things which you really cannot run over a remote X connection, but you seem to conveniently ignore this
