What saved humans from extension were our social traits.
The young taking care of the elderly, the orphans being cared for by the rest of the community, the clan's men hunting for days the protein (in the form of any animal you care to mention) to be shared with the rest of the clan.
And then sedentary towns, cities, countries.
Drop the tired Thatcherism. Society does exist and has provided many evolutionary advantages to have a healthy balance between reasonably selfisheness and cooperation.
Althoug I fully agree with you you are confussing hindu and vedic myths (Monkey God) and mixing it with Budhist stuff.
In countries like Thailand all these influences mixed and thus the Budhism practiced there is different to Budhism in other places with less hindu influence.
Reincarnation and Nirvana are of course all as faux as any religion dogmas.
The BBC in the UK does not show advertisements, the rest of British TV is mostly crap.
I don't know, it may be only me, but I find something terribly disturbing when advertisements of all things are whorshiped like something worth so much discussion.
Like if not having control of the desktop has eliminated Sun, IBM, Apple and HP.
And surely they will follow blindly whatever MS's TCPA stuff mandates for Windows users.
And like if there will not be computer manufacturers willing to do business with people that will not like to be controlled in their computer requierements by third parties.
And surely all the old hardware running today is going to disappear from the face of the earth as soon as MS and its friends make TCPA.
And most importantly, Linux is just code, free code. As long as there are people willing to experiment with hardware (no matter how protected) it will be possible to do Linux stuff.
Support. First rate support (I have not experienced Red Hat nor IBM, from the first I have reservations, from the second I believe they will be as good as ever).
Come back in 2 years and then tell us where your weight is. Amazing how with one freaking month you can judge this fad as the greatest thing since slaiced bread. Talk about short termism.
YOu are not changing your lifestyle, you are recurring to panic measures.
Eat well (less of most stuff, more variety), exercise more.
YOu refer to bodybuilding knowledge like if it was the greatest thing.
Bodybuilders also regularly use harmful ways to enhance their muscle mass, disregarding any effects for their general health.
Your statements about crabohidrates are ludicrous.
Nature chooses the path of less resistence, so it ie enough to look how many more mammals are vegetarian than carnivores. This is not casual, meat (protein) is much harder to process than sugar (carbs). Whoever told you all that stuff about protein is eithr lying to you or is focusing the information in a very narrow point of view with very narrow objectives (perhaps growing body muscle?) that have nothing to do with the general good health of a normal individual.
If you are not an expert or a specialist in a given field after studying to become one and gathering years of professional experience (expert, experience, geddit?) then find a tall building, an imposing bridge or a fast train and help evolution avoid dead ends.
If you have something as good as AutoCAD and you insist on running AUtoCAD that does not meant there is no choice. That means you are stubborn.
DO you need to get some stuff from Access? Get it in a standard format. I am sure even Access can import to something readable into other programs.
Which smaller apps run only on a PC?
Most use of a PC today (what, 80%,90%?) in a corporate environment is to read email, write a few documents and perhaps organize a few meetings.
That is doable with Macs, Linux, Solaris or any other OS you care to mention.
Corporations that have got a clue are using and creating software that is Web aware, and if they are really competent the software is standards complaint so even the web browser is not a single point of future extortion.
.... is that I have a Sony CD player that I bought ca 1986, still going strong, I have a Sony TV bought ca. 1995, no problems, I have a Sony minidisk bougth in 1998, no hiccups, I have a Sony portable radio that works a week in one AAA battery, bought 4 years ago.

Public domain is exactly that: you can very well do whatever you fscking like with it!
That is the whole bloddy stupid fscking point!
And then flash them to an emulator?
Or flash them for backup purposes?
I don't think so.

... that does not suck.
CDE (don't laugh, it is predictable and stable).
No need for kernel rebuilds.
Support. First rate support (I have not experienced Red Hat nor IBM, from the first I have reservations, from the second I believe they will be as good as ever).

Eat well (less of most stuff, more variety), exercise more.
... then clearly that fad did not work.
The only think that works is education, and education in synthesis says that what matters in the long term is moderation and variety.

How can I have missed something so obvious.
It sucks to be me.
I'll throw my sorry self in a cage full of hungry penguins. DO not blame anybody for my untimely but just demise.
Those are not phone numbers.
What are you trying to hide?
... that I will log out and cry now.
Some people just don't get it and peacefuly, smiling, carry on towards their cages.

... was difficult to read?
Employed continously since 1989.
I would welcome a break.

WHich it clearly is not (I am using Citirx right now and have no idea what the differences may be).
If you don't explain pros and cons I don't see why anybody should take your word at gospel value.
Surely your employer put a piggybank for you to pay for those printouts.
Now that you mention it, I should do that here in the office, I will start a printing business.

Geddit?
SO please moderators, do your job.
You are trying to be to close to reality as possible.
Act in consequence.
You are trying to modify reality.
Be fired.
Did you understand or should I spell it s-l-o-w-l-y for you?
New Sun's slogan: "we are the dots in Microsot's i". Followed by "we love Microsft, we use it everyday".
Brilliant marketing insight that of yours.
Bastards, why did they not provide something like Visual C[tm]?
They clealrly fscked big team for not providing a pointy-clicky environment for their lame language.
Jeez, what were they thinking?
Really, I would be interested to know.
Fucking nerds.
