I tried Devuan on a vm and it was flaky on the xfce firefox youtube playback. I decided to give it a whirl on an 11-year-old Dell Latitude D630 and everything was amazingly smooth! I have not actually tried debian on it yet, and don't care to, but it is way smoother interface than the Korora 25 Cinnamon install I had on it before.
This dinky little D630 that is your grandpa's laptop is making a devuan believer out of me...
It would have been called the Secessionary War, like the Revolutionary war was a 'revolution' theoretically (eh, it wasn't really a revolution, but we call it the Revolutionary War). The people of the southern states were trying to separate politically, not overthrow the federal government. Secessionary War makes more sense than Revolutionary War, for the wars in question.
I had one teacher in college who addressed each student with the titles Mr. and Miss and Mrs. applied correctly to the situation. I thought it was a little bit weird, but by the third class period I figured it out: We have to call him Mr. So-and-So, so his respect for us was just as high as he wanted for himself from us.
He was one of my best teachers ever. He had the right attitude for addressing students.

That's only a few pages, but it gives you an idea. I had to read Negroponte's book as assigned reading, and I remember he predicted painted-on computer displays. This spray-on touchpad sounds like we're one step closer!
When I read GP's message, I truly was thinking of the chat program. I thought to myself, "He's... my age?" It took me a few additional seconds to realize he must mean the real, telegraph wire system.

Don't give them any ideas!
Transtators were invented by the 22nd century and the basis for every important piece of equipment that we have.
Be careful with that, because you might only have a Dvorak as the spare!
Or uninformed and don't want to take the time to make better choices.
Yeah, well, but for now I recommend she stays out of Oregon!

For the first time ever, in history, I have read every single comment (browsing at -1) on a two-day-old post. Thank you, slashdot!
Hm, so you're saying a flaw in XP (doesn't wipe details out of memory) can help undo an exploited flaw?

It's about time. The franchise brought in the squid-face in the second film, after all.

Quit pushing a culture that values violence, lack of education, and laziness.
