There are Server and Desktop OS built out of it. There is nothing special about the linux kernel that makes it more suited to server tasks than desktop ones. Linux has no fundamental problems running programs that happen to be games. X11 overhead is greatly exaggerated, mostly by people who have no idea what they are talking about.
Distributing a DEB and and RPM covers just about everyone. Drivers are a problem, but would not be if hardware makers would play along.
A very small fragment of Linux users are open source zealots.
I mean assist in fixing the issues. I mean not standing in their way as we currently do by sanctioning nations if they dare make their own drugs. Never mind that we founded our nation by ripping off IP.
No I mean all types of income would be taxed on the same progressive tax scheme. Meaning the first $X at Y% and the next $Z at AA%, no matter the source of that money.
I assumed slashdot posters read at at least the 8th grade level. Clearly you have proved me wrong.
Bullshit. We have strong property rights and poverty in the first world.
Property rights are nice, but they are no magical solution. When you can't build a middle class, because you face sanctions for competing that is the problem.
Heck, giving them some of it might be a wise idea. It can be cheaper to spend a little on educating that criminal into a functional member of society than to let him continue to live this way.
Why don't people ever admit that you are full of shit? They pay sales tax, property tax, SS, the list goes on and on. They might not pay any income tax, but that is not the same as paying no tax.
That half is also broke. You can't get blood from a stone.
Well what about deductions for charity? How about investing in your retirement? Well you have kids?....
None of those deductions should exist. I say this as someone impacted by 2 of the 3.
You shortly find the simple idea of making the Tax Plan easy and fair quickly comes up with a lot of details that you find, that there are not easy answers too.
Somethings do have easy answers. All income should be taxed at the same level based on a simple progressive tax scheme. No deductions means no loopholes.
No, you keep that in the garage. WIth just a propane tank and some hardware store supplies you can easily be casting low melting point metals. Even just reuse "free" metal like aluminum cans or wheel weights.

Hopefully it makes you stop doing that. I would suggest the computer open a door in your way.
Very little OpenGL development is done in the gaming community? Are you high?
Please tell me how my PS3 runs DirectX, or how my android phone does.
What product does Nokia make now?
Name one that actually sells well. This appears to be their Plan B.
Why should they care what you think?
I play some games in wine. If the game won't work in wine or have a linux client I just don't buy it.
Explain why I should give one fuck about your opinion?
Linux is a kernel.
There are Server and Desktop OS built out of it. There is nothing special about the linux kernel that makes it more suited to server tasks than desktop ones. Linux has no fundamental problems running programs that happen to be games. X11 overhead is greatly exaggerated, mostly by people who have no idea what they are talking about.

What games were those? Was this recently?
Wine generally does pretty well at supporting popular games.
Denier is a descriptive term. The fact that you take it as a pejorative is very telling.
Ok nutcase, I did not mean go in and do it.
I mean assist in fixing the issues. I mean not standing in their way as we currently do by sanctioning nations if they dare make their own drugs. Never mind that we founded our nation by ripping off IP.
It is to run the laptop full tilt and charge a 100% depleted battery all at the same time. It will likely never see that use.
I did not suggest paying them off. I suggested fixing the underlying problems.
Is there a logical fallacy for arguing like a talking head? Because you just committed it.
No I mean all types of income would be taxed on the same progressive tax scheme. Meaning the first $X at Y% and the next $Z at AA%, no matter the source of that money.

Not for 50% of the population. Lots of people get their Federal taxes nearly all back but don't get an EIC.
Also they pay highway taxes on fuel. Where do folks who do no qualify for an EIC, more than 50% of our population get that back?
Lots of tests have been done. There is nothing special about those violins.
You market the hell out of a name and make them expensive enough that only really good players can get one.
Look it up yourself, there is nothing magic about those violins.
I have said it many times and will again, people will not stop creating for lack of protection, they did before.
Bullshit.
We have strong property rights and poverty in the first world.
Property rights are nice, but they are no magical solution. When you can't build a middle class, because you face sanctions for competing that is the problem.
Finding out why might be a good idea.

The thing is when we were a basically a 3rd world nation, right after we became a nation we ripped off everyone's IP.
Without that step you can never really get to a point at which you can create a workable economy.
Yes, it was. MS Monopolized the market, then sucked out all the profit. This meant that hardware vendors did not have the money to take risks.
Yes, in the same way the Linux server was not a blip on Commercial UNIX in generals radar at one point.
Yes, any other stupid questions?
More competition is better, without it you get the stagnation that desktops have been since the 90s.
No, you keep that in the garage.
WIth just a propane tank and some hardware store supplies you can easily be casting low melting point metals. Even just reuse "free" metal like aluminum cans or wheel weights.
Do you have a link to the model you picked?
I have been looking at this for ages now and would like one I can build without already owning an entire machine shop.
