    For someone transitioning from a Windows platform, this is one of the friendliest distros out there.

    I just want to know, if you're pissing in Central park at 3 a.m, who are you exposing yourself to exactly?

    It's been perfectly legal to piss outdoors since forever minus 75 years or so, I don't see the harm unless you make eye contact and start shaking it rapidly.

    You say that like our political system isn't already ass backwards going full speed behind.

    You say that like you approve espionage against the USA. Do you?

    No I don't, but that doesn't mean it's not going to happen. Our government spies on us and other countries all the time, what makes you think they won't do the same?

    anyone here complaining that 10/100 network is perfectly fast enough, and Gig-E is overkill, would be laughed at for eons. In a few years, 10 Gig-E, or 100 Gig-E will be the norm.

    56k should be enough for user.

  18. Take the damned battery out! Hasn't anybody seen NCIS!

    Unfortunately for alot of newer phones, that isn't an option. That and no SD slot were my only gripes about my latest phone.

  19. This is where the reviews come in. If the buyers voice their experiences with that product openly and they are verified buyers of that item, then there shouldn't be an issue. I've also seen an item that has glowing reviews, but then you scroll down to see that all of the reviews are either not verified buyers of that item, or that they received the item at a discount or for free in exchange for an honest review.

    Sometimes these reviews turn out to be legitimate, I also used to receive things from Newegg back in the day for free to review. It's all in the gut for me, If i don't feel good about an item on Amazon, either due to the reviews or reputation of the seller, I look for something else.

    My increasing reluctance to deal with non-"Prime" vendors is due solely to Amazon's lackadaisical attitude towards what is being sold.

    This so much! I only buy from Prime vendors for that very reason. And if at all possible, I will always purchase from the vendor of the product through amazon, even though it may cost slightly more, I know I will get it in 2 days and it will be legitimate.

    I routinely get 3+ mpg higher than my highway EPA estimate on my 2014 Hyundai Elantra, and I'm not exactly the most reserved driver, but I know what not to do to jeopardize my fuel effeciency.

    As you said earlier, it's all about a baseline. If you buy a car that's supposed to get 20 mpg on the highway based on EPA figures, you shouldn't be surprised when it comes time to fuel up.

    I don't think it's that people don't know how to repair the tractors, it's the fact that it's illegal to do so.
