I do not think virtualization means what you think it means.
I can assure you, your thoughts have nothing to do with reality.
Virtualization = FULL emulation (e.g. VMWare, VirtualBox, XEN, Parallels)
And this technology has no place in OS design. It's a completely spurious level of indirection used as a crutch for broken operating systems. Last time it was legitimate, it was used on IBM mainframes to run nested instances of operating systems, because consistent kernel/userspace interface was not invented yet.
Basically, virtualization system's developer says: "I don't care what is at the level below hypervisor -- hardware must SERVE ME! I don't care what is at the level above hypervisor -- OS must SERVE ME! I don't care if your OS has millions times better scheduler, virtual memory, filesystems, anything -- I will put my ham-fisted interface into every path between hardware and software, so you all can just as well write it as if you are retarded monkeys -- BECAUSE I AM THE PERPETUAL BOTTLENECK, AND YOU CAN DO NOTHING, NOTHING ABOUT IT!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
Naturally, OS that is already designed worse than any hypervisor imaginable, does not suffers from this at all.
What SHOULD happen, is all hypervisors defeated by OS-implemented host compartmentalization (LXC and similar).
Virtualization is great for development, testing and running craptastic operating systems that you really, really hate to run but can't get rid of (what means Windows for sane people).
Condemning Communism because of the actions of Stalin or Mao is simply ignorant.
My dear, you are an ignorant cretin when saying these cretinous words. Both Stain and Mao *applied* the Communist doctrine and in doing so they sent tens of millions to their graves. The actions of Stalin and Mao were undoubtedly a direct consequence of their Communist policies.
When you're too brainwashed to accept facts, please stop commenting on them on the Internet, you're wasting precious bandwidth.
I have absolutely nothing against any effort to shout down idiocy like this -- by former KGB or anyone else. US propaganda filled up all forms of media to the point of saturation, mostly in the form of the idiots (like one quoted above) repeating other idiots' statements without understanding their origin, creating a veneer of legitimacy for blatantly baseless propaganda talking points.
After all, it's less work (and less aggravation) for me.
Sure, doing something in Anonymous' name that even a minority of "members" dislike would probably be a tactical mistake,
Most things "done by Anonymous" were followed by massive Internet flame outbursts directed toward the people who performed them -- supposed "newfags" who are "not really Anonymous". I think, the only action that did not provoke such reaction was the original Habbo Hotel invasion (of "Pool is closed due to AIDS" fame).
What the hell? Free ride? I paid for my hardware, thank you.
It's called "raising the drawbridge". Once a group of worthless greedy assholes used some existing wonderful resource or phenomenon for their own benefit, assholes are eager to destroy it, so no one can use it to challenge them in the future. To justify this, they claim that others are "freeloaders" and "don't deserve" to use something as great as the resource being destroyed.
Among other examples are "international" patents on drugs and other patent-related bullshit, copyrights and trademarks on formerly freely-distributable material (from Disney to Tivo-ization), and even "non-proliferation of nuclear weapons" when promoted by the country that can be only deterred from invasion by nuclear weapons.
I worked with networked computers in professional capacity longer than all of you combined, and I completely agree with the person you are replying to.
You are absolutely definitely unqualified to make any design decisions about the project you have described. The design is stupid, requirements are idiotic, and if iot was implemented in such manner it would not work for many reasons that you don't seem to be capable of understanding.
No, that's a comparison with American Social Conservative ideology that touts the wonders of weak leaders/government and "The People" (corporations and ultra-rich) in control of everything.
The rest of the world, including Russia, went through this crap over Industrial Revolution, and wants none of it. US had feudalism surviving in the South through the whole 19th century, then artificial economic crisis, then war, then more war, so people were distracted from the horrors of industry-financial oligarchy until the end of 20th century. In other words, Americans are a century and a half behind.
Over fast connections X over ssh is faster than VNC. On the other, hand VNC is (barely, and not for any practical purposes) usable on connections that are so slow, X can't work over them without minutes of redraw delays.
A company is nothing but an expensive piece of legal fiction. When the "companies leave" and people remain, people can start new companies, and old companies have no one to work for them.
So I can rephrase that one for you: 2. America heading towards a centrally-planned economy? Check.
No. Centrally planned economy (as implemented within each and every large company) works just fine. The problem is, their strategy is based on destruction of the rest of society, and that works as intended, too.

I see, you have some mis...understandings about human reproduction.
ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?

without being surrounded by missile systems, American military bases, or counties destabilised by the rogue states of america.

No, it's just easier to track CIA funding that goes to those "dissidents" through "international" "non-governmental" organizations.
First of all, hard drives don't boot...

My assessment of your Linux use is unchanged.

On top of that massive ignorance, you are stupid.

I do have a multi-touch display on my laptop
No, you don't.
Because if judge is allowed to make decisions not based on law, those decisions can not be appealed even if they make no sense.
All alterations to human DNA are "man-made".
"Software" is far more than just bit manipulation. Its like saying Michelangelo just diddled with dyes a bit.
For the purpose of patent law it's correct -- Michelangelo never produced anything patentable.
No, that slope was some kind of huge inflatable mattress.
Why in the world would you even try to do it? What is the goal of this endeavour?
Indeed! Why load Linux when you could load FreeBSD instead?!?!
Their port sucks and has some fruity GUI on top.
New Linux distro to play with? Another VM, and I still have OSX as my main do everything OS.
Another poser who does not actually use Linux.
Most of them are not, but this has nothing to do with Windows.
Over fast connections X over ssh is faster than VNC. On the other, hand VNC is (barely, and not for any practical purposes) usable on connections that are so slow, X can't work over them without minutes of redraw delays.
If VNC does not cripple your use of Linux, you are not using Linux beyond "let's see how this terrible system looks" level.
Not even underpants gnomes can imagine obtaining profit from a permanent solution to American obesity.
A company is nothing but an expensive piece of legal fiction. When the "companies leave" and people remain, people can start new companies, and old companies have no one to work for them.
As I said, you guys are morons.
