Was that before or after he split the silicon valley?
My only experience with Arch Linux was back in 0.7 and then it wasn't good. But that doesn't mean much now so I can't comment for how Arch work now. I tried Chakra Linux during early 2012 but I don't remember if there was anything else wrong with it except the bundle system for GTK-applications. Applications? =P
I would had seen that as a reason good enough to do it to but since Linux got btrfs (and even if it's not perfect now it will improve) I never mentioned it.
Maybe they like the GNU userland better but most likely it's about getting some features from the FreeBSD kernel to Arch.
I assume there's still plenty of GNU stuff in FreeBSD to? Or? I know the various BSDs has argued and switched to BSD licensed compilers previously.
Personally I would like to have what I'm used to and have it work like I'm used to regardless of OS.
OpenSolaris didn't had the GNU utilities and wasn't build the OS wasn't built for things like open sound system and things wasn't made to build on Solaris instead so it was a pain (imho, ymmv) to use for that purpose.
For me it would suck to have things break 1-2 times each half year because I was running a rolling release.
Now would that happen? I don't know. But it's likely more likely.
Even now I had my KDE break for close to a week I believe because I got the latest Qt which for whatever reason broke on 64-bit machines or whatever.
But then I do run the latest KDE 4.9 repository for my openSUSE 12.2.
Maybe rolling release would be somewhat more stable for KDE but less stable for the rest of the OS compared to my configuration. So that may have been unfair of me to say.
Personally I was attracted by Linux Mint approach of backing up your choices and $HOME and install it all from scratch each time. Make it easy to replace bigger parts of the system without things failing while doing so.
Switch from Microsoft to Microsoft and save $43.7 million?
I can understand "switch from stupid choice of products to better choices of products" though. And I don't find it unlikely that they had a lot of stupid choices there.
Another interesting option is if the switch to Linux saves money and then switching to Microsoft saves even more and then you can just continue switching, imagine the savings! Personally I have a hard time imagine you save money by switching back and forth though =P
Yeah, that what I thought but I don't know anything about WebRTC and what it is. Haven't even read TFA:)
After I had replied I went to bed but just before I thought that maybe the issue with it being more low level was that the rest of the implementation could end up different and lead to incompatibilities.
But then again I have no idea what it really is or what it's supposed to be used for so I don't know whatever that can become a problem. Thought that would be a typical Microsoft/proprietary thing.
From a usability point / get maximum usage /.. to restrict it more than necessary seemed stupid (and to design anything like that if you don't need to as well. Better make it of very small bits which do each thing.)
Left IO-board of my Macbook Pro was claimed to be broken.
I still haven't bought any and it was such a waste on a good laptop.
Anyway, the thing is if you google for left io board for a macbook pro the ones you find are for my model... so.. Yeah:) (Shouldn't that be a manufacturing fault? Imho the freaking cable to the magsafe connector is a manufacturing fault because it can't handle use.)

You obviously don't know him. He will install xfce as soon as he figures out how apt-get works, which will take him about 2 nanoseconds.
There's something wrong with this picture after the switch. I can't really tell why:

Cool story. FreeBSD is an operating system.
TL;DR. At least you had my attention until "operating system." You're welcome.

Maybe Pacman work better than portupgrade to.
Why would any professor worth his salt "Recommend" his students be locked into a device for consumption
in other words, an iPad.

Personally I'm the other way around I guess.

Make me curious of what he has said. I can imagine about what it could be but I don't know.

Yeah, that what I thought but I don't know anything about WebRTC and what it is. Haven't even read TFA :)

Which one of them? Both maybe? WebRTC?
Toms hardware answer this.
Such a shitty brand and product quality.
YMMV.
So write emulators for something else. Like Android.
Write your homebrew for Android.
Write your indie games for Android.
Don't play using a touch screen if you haven't designed the game for a touch screen.
DOA.
Any phone or whatever can do the same stuff hence why care?
Yeah and we will surely get there if we never try.
"No need to do these weather simulations and prediction, we are often wrong anyway."
Better give up anything we can't do atm. Tell that to your children.
"No use for you to study math, you suck at it and there's so many others who are better than you. Why are you even trying?"
WTF is wrong with people?
It''s a good way to end all progress though.
Tss
What you mean is "what I could or ever could imagine them to do."
I'm sure if asked someone could had said something like "A computer can just crunch numbers, it will never be able to play chess" to.
Of course being Swedish, the whole thing will probably be assembled with an allen key...
Hey! At least we don't take "what a small package" as an insult!
Some assembly required.
Once up if it lasts as long as you want to keep it when what's the problem?

No, Quake was what I did at gymnasium.
That, Warcraft II, Command & Conquer, R.O.T.T.
Or well, guess that's right. 16-20 year old :D
Quake ftw.
He's got it wrong.
White wooden cube = sheep
Black wooden disc = stone
If it's not a wooden cube then you're playing ameritrash.
At least you pump heat from below the ground to the surface faster than normally?
Maybe it doesn't matter much.
Also there's no risk the plastic reach water you want to drink or go up to the surface and spread plastic around?
I know the US doesn't care much about spreading plastic around but it still isn't good.
But in any case, this can't be dismissed just because simple physics says that it has no mechanical advantage.
Ok.
What a stupid comment by someone who has obviously no experience visiting such sites.
"Oh there was guys with guns in uniform wanting my id"
"ITS A SECRET AIRBASE!!!! I CAN TELL BY THE UNIFORMS!"
Yeah. Someone joked about this being an IKEA store.
You see. People still haven't got it. Just you wait until we've built them everywhere!
