OMG! I just checked on the websites for FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD, they all have source code available too! Drug dealers, pedophiles, terrorists, and the NSA ALL have access to this source code.
They all leak IP addresses to the internet as well. It looks like they only leak MAC addresses to the local network, so they've done a little better there.
I have a local folder full of emailed receipts from online purchases. It goes back to the late 90's. Other than the mental cost of moving emails there after a purchase is received, there isn't any other cost. It's easily searchable, ordered by date, and is at least, if not more, durable than a printed receipt.
In fact, it's waaaay better than the thermal printed receipts most places generate now. Those seem to fade out in well less than a year, and often closer to 3-4 months, unless it gets left in your hot car for a day, then the whole thing turns black.
If I buy anything of significant value, and only get a thermally printed receipt, I'll usually make a photocopy, or take a picture with my phone and copy it to the above mentioned directory.
Anderson says "the majority of the investments we make at the kernel level to enable network and storage performance were up-streamed into the FreeBSD 10.3 release"
I glance over the "majority" part on first read. I'm now curious about what exactly got held out of their commit to the upstream.
I'm not sure I'm following. Microsoft made some changes to FBSD, so it will work better on Azure and Hyper-V. They submitted those changes back to the main FBSD project. What does any of that have to do with Linux?
That doesn't make spamming a legitimate function of government.
The US govt is mandated by the constitution to manage a set of post offices and local mail delivery. There is a way to change that setup, it's called "pass an amendment to the constitution". I'm not advocating for spam, I'm just trying to point out how the system works. The way the system is setup, anyone who wants to pay, can send any legal item to whoever they want.
Solution:
So, I should manage my personal affairs the way you say? How about, I'll do it my way, you do it your way.
While your statements may be true, they don't address the fact that the USPS uses a pension, and they were forced to fund it for 75 years into the future. With the involved parties being the US government, and the USPS union, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for the pension to get replaced with a 401k (or whatever the govt employee version is called).
And UPS/Fedex wouldn't deliver those if USPS wasn't around?
Bills should be sent by email
email is a cluster fsck as it is. I get waaaay more spam email than I do in my mailbox. I don't want to have to find my bills in that pile of shite.
The sooner Congress gets rid of them the better.
I don't think it will work that way. See Article I, Section 8, Clause 7 of the United States Constitution, known as the Postal Clause or the Postal Power.
How do you rent out an email list? Normally renting implies that you give the thing back at the end of the rental term, which I have a hard time believing would happen here.
Close, but not quite. The Bushes took out the biggest Kennedys in the 60s. JFK for trying to shut down the CIA and Federal Reserve, and RFK for going after the Mafia.
At if you get pulled over for doing 121 mph, you're going to get more trophies than that. A stay at the Grey Bar Motel and the chance to meet a real life judge.
Don't worry, there will be a few jobs available doing service or maintenance on the robots. If you get one of those, and are frugal, you might have your loans paid off before you die.
I don't know how public transport works where you are, but here it runs from approximately 6a-9p. This means it starts too late for a lot of people to use it going to work, and stops too early to use it when going out at night. The routes are designed in a spoke/hub setup, so unless you are going to/from the Downtown area, the efficiency is somewhere between "major PITA" to "might as well take a cab".
If there were more, smaller vehicles, there could be more routes, in more useful layouts. If the vehicles have no drivers, then there is no one to bitch about having to work the night shift, which I would expect is more dangerous.
You should probably change most of your MJ references to MMJ (Medical MariJuana). The first states to legalize for recreational use, CO and WA, did that in 2012, 4 years after Obama was first elected.
Have you noticed how the increased productivity gains over the last 40ish years haven't much enhanced the careers of the people in low/mid level jobs? Directors/C-level types, and owners have taken the majority of those gains. Since 1979, productivity has increased 80%, the average income of the top 1% of wage earners has increased 200%, and the average wage of the other 99% has been flat. Full Article.
Why do you have any expectation that further automation will change this trend?
all VPN, all the time. Even at home, and the wifi is managed by me, I still don't want my ISP tracking me or injecting ads/whatever into the data stream.

Microsoft wants Linux to work better on Azure
I'm not sure I'm following. Microsoft made some changes to FBSD, so it will work better on Azure and Hyper-V. They submitted those changes back to the main FBSD project. What does any of that have to do with Linux?
I'm no Microsoft fan, but, they did submit their changes back upstream to FBSD. The BSD license doesn't require them to do that, but they did.
According to the article (I know, I know), the changes were pushed back upstream and are in FBSD proper as well.

Is there anything in the 42+" range that is sold as a "computer monitor"? Last time I was looking, 30" or so was the biggest I saw.

I like how the vomit sort of resembles a hand with just the middle finger up. Was that on purpose?
Cthulhu supports Trump.
Why would Cthulhu support a lesser evil?
It makes economic sense for the agency involved. "Look, we spent all of our budget, we need to request MORE money for next year."

Why don't you get back to us when the "temporary" state of emergency in France is lifted.
