For one, I have to question anyone who criticizes what basically amounts to a long-term research project in how to design an operating system. Of course it's going to take too long and of course nobody from the mainstream is interested enough to help.
For another it should really be pointed out that SELinux and FUSE are really just bolted-on, inferior implementations of things that are key embedded concepts in the hurd. You probably would not have these things on your linux system today if it had not been for the hurd.
Hurd is more a research project on how badly personalities can clash, how numerous forks can quickly wither and die, how to make grandiose claims that may someday never exist,...
I've never had the right collection of hardware to ever see it boot, let alone run. I doubt that has changed. Maybe they could set it up so we could run it under an emulator.
If you are James Bond, then you will have to swim around twice as long dragging a nearly naked scuba diver away from the laser sharks. Well, that's his sex life, anyway.
I dare you to try to get food to the poor in Somalia. If the warlords don't kill you and take all your stuff, then the pirates will. There is no viable method of getting supplies to the poor without it being taken by the various political "parties", like the warlords, for their armies, who will then be well fed so they can go out and kill those poor people for whatever they might have. If you want to get food to the poor people of Somalia, you will first need to kill all the warlords and their supporters.
No, only groping gets funding as an antiterrorist,ethodology. If you want this funded, say it is to prove that Global Warming(tm) exists and is caused by man. You can get extra funding if you cover it with elephant shit, or B&W gay porn, Dems really like that type of thing.
Amazon may not directly transport items across state owned roads in _every_ state, but it does indeed depend on those roads to exist so their products can be transported by other companies.
Isn't this what fuel taxes are for?
Beyond that, they also need protection from the state/local police in every state they ship items to. They need all the supporting services just to keep the roadways open. And that's just the tip of the iceberg, I'm sure.
Interesting quip. Wouldn't it be better to get rid of them, instead of needing to be protected from them?
The Bill of Rights wasn't written to enumerate what rights people had, it was written to make sure that the government didn't try to grab them. In fact, many of the founding fauthers were against writing it, because they were afraid that it would be used as a limit on personal rights instead of limiting the governments rights. The Federal government was supposed to be limited to what duties it had in the Constitution. The fact that we are debating on what rights we have under the bill of rights shows that it was a flawed idea. We shouldn't be limited to the few rights listed there, it is the Federal government that should be limited. The founding fauthers felt that the Federal government has certain duties, and everything else was left to the states to decide. The fact that the Federal Government has done a land grab on our rights doesn't mean that they are now constitutional. Birth control, health insurance, firearms, company bailouts, none of these are part of the constitution.
Weapons being mentioned in the bill of rights doesn't give the government rights to the complete control of firearms. In fact, the opposite should be true. The bill of rights was supposed to bre a "don't you dare touch this, feds", instead of "this is a list of what you are permitted to do, stupid peons, and we can limit them further if we want to".
I love the way he wields his business-speak and manages to use the words leverage, logistics, market, resources, replicate, solutions and optimised with such ease and finesse. Add to that the analogy with the human body and antibodies and I am not sure how this guy is not in charge of the whole world! He's got my vote!
He might be an optimized multilevel synergistic highly integrated bi-level marketing domain with highly stabilized upward mobility.
What happens if it's thrown out of a helicopter that hasn't been hit by a mule? Or is there someone in charge of making sure all helicopters have been hit by a mule just to be safe?
And uses more energy. If you're problem is insulation, i.e. retaining heat, fix the insulation problem, not just sweep it under the rug by fixing the symptom.
A washbucket with a scrubbing board takes less energy than a washing machine, so why don't we ban washing machines too? I'm sure that China will happily build all the replacements we need.
Just because something is more efficient, doesn't mean that it will work as a good replacement. In fact, regular light bulbs are frequently used as a load for a lot of electrical testing. A fluorescent would not work in this operation at all. But, we are not allowed even these exceptions. We are obviously too stupid to decide on these things on our own.
Anyway, it's too late already. All the American light bulb plants have been forcibly shut down, so if you want incandescent bulbs, you'll need to buy them from China.
One of the lies that Obama is talking about is this non-payment of the debt. Problem is, the debt gets paid first, before any of the other programs, so there isn't any problem with failing to pay off the minimum. It's just his favorite welfare programs that are in danger. Another lie is that we've never failed to pay this off, but it actually happened in the '70s.
What Obama wants to to be able to continue to spend like a drunken sailor in a brothel. He has accumulated more debt than ALL of the previous presidents combined. Not one at a time, but ALL added together. And he blaims the debt on the rich people. Is it any wonder that he's hit the debt limit? Next year, he'll probably need yet another increase.
And they said the health care reform bill was only bad.
What's wrong with having the same group in charge of the Post Office handling your medical emergencies? You should expect to have your medical needs met with the same care and devotion as a typical postal employee.
They always deal with the important stuff first: Sufficient poatage? Is package oversized? Are all the forms filled in properly. Is it past quitting time? Will anyone miss it?...
Well, having 419 princesses, at least a couple of them ought to be worth looking at. But since they are Nigerian, most of them are probably princes in dresses.

You can always sell the pirates as slaves.

It is close to the amount that each saved/created job cost, so what's the problem?
They got in a fight with the laser mounted sharks, and killed each other off.
So, the first version was called Windows, and this one is going to be called Toilets. His naming scheme really sucks.

and please do sir tell us WHAT OS has ZERO unpatched vulnerabilities in it's history?
RSTS/E V1.0
Then there have been 1000's of student built OS's for their homebrew projects.
You never specified OS's that were actually sold. Plus your post seems to assume that different versions of an OS are to be considered seperately.

Don't worry about how you answer those type of questions on the test. The dems will fix your answer sheet in the after-test party.
And later, they were just as positive that we could not exceed the speed of sound, with numerous horrible consequences if they tried.
We must have laws limiting the speed of trains! Do it for the children! What's going to happen to them when they are sucked back in by flying uterus?
Ohwhatswrongwithdrinkingalotofenergydrinks? Ijusthadsixinarowanditdoesntseemtoaffectmeatall! Whyaretherepinkflyingponiesinhere?
Being molested, xrayed, shown naked on a screen, and robbed is a small price to pay to keep terrorists from taking away my freedom!
And to have your electronics taken away must be a bonus.
Or how many terrorist plots he foiled ... by selling their bombs on ebay.
