Your job responsibilities obviously do not include change management. There are a great many organisations (mainly Government entities) for whom 4 Million years is "short term".
It is, for example, far to short a period to remove all the bugs from a popular Operating System (which shall remain nameless for obvious reasons).
Multi-platter was always a good idea, I assume it stopped in a desperate attempt to cut costs.
8" hard drives often had 4 or even 8 double sided platters - and SCSI interfaces! Early 5.25" drives often had two, double sided platters. They desperately needed to access more data with less head movement because they had quite low areal bit density and used floppy-derived stepper motors for head positioning!
Clear, unambiguous, and doesn't require a google search to understand.
Thats the answer, right there. Marketdroids are terrified that you might understand what you are buying. It is their worst nightmare, In fact, it makes you a terrorist!
I think the dead BSDs will soon be making references to "on the third day, he rose again". I expect Netcraft will confirm in on Easter Day!
Or maybe Netflix. It has the makings of a great Zombie movie - with Orson Welles as RMS, Vincent Price as Theo, Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee and Kernighan and Richie, Lon Chaney as SCO and Special appearance of Boris Karloff as Bill Gates.
I am willing to write the screen play (in K&R C) for a considerable fee. Someone else will have to do the CGI.
This statement is a good example of full-on American stupidity and ignorance. It is about as sensible as claiming that swimming is drowning because both involve people being in water, a potentially lethal situation.
"Social Democratic" parties in Europe are a very mixed bunch. Capitalism has been regulated in Europe since the 1600's with varying degrees of competence. Americans appear to describe Europe's extreme right wing as socialist, having no idea what socialist actually means.
Unregulated Capitalism is like the "wild west" of the 1800's, governed by Trump. I am sure you will love it when you get it (if you are in Trump's income bracket).

In the interests of health and safety, please explain which is which. I am having trouble telling the difference between them.
You might want to research the going rate for ads per actual purchase (ignoring all clickbots, etc). You may be more competitive than you think!
Who, exactly is arguing this? I don't think even Trump's cat has the nerve to say it.
The real lesson from Snowdon is: If the government has the data, everyone else will get it real soon.
My auntie that looks like a member of the Adams family.
I will believe it when I see a picture of the stake through Darl's heart.
I hope you are not suggesting that Windows is a viable alternative. You might need to read up on Windows 10.
I think the future for Linux could be great if the Unity/Systemd lessons are learned. (Not holding my breath. )
By deploying an entire Internet of cats?
I thought most all-American guys need 400HP for that!

A table with an A0 size screen? I want one!

Is that Volkswagen, Hummers or Fords?
For those of us who were already adult at the time, that is not how it was.
Ads have fucked the internet. Either the ads go, or the internet goes.
No. I stopped attempting to use a mobile for Slashdot. The mobile version is unusable.
They do nothing.
And now they moan about the consequences?
Shareholders, where are your votes?
Send a personal email to RMS?
All banks are SSC - it is the nature of the universe. There are probably references to the fact in Shakespeare's plays.
Damn right: I want a PCI slot so I can install a SCSI card - I need tape backup of my phone - NOW!

Possibly not. But the vast majority of people are not remotely reasonable.
Where you are virtually certain to die of cold if your house is not triple glazed or you cant pay the electric bill.
You might want to read up on the French Revolution.
No. Its not.
