No lecture halls for me. We do have video lectures for certain subjects but there's no need to take notes, per se, because you can replay and pause the lectures at any time.
If I was in a more traditional classroom environment I might buy one of those Surface things with the stylus for scribbling on PDF lecture slides.
I did buy pen and paper notepad when I started the course but rarely use it except when doing certain exercises by hand. For library searches I am looking up books on my laptop to copy and paste that catalogue number into one of those cloud services like onenote or google keep. Syncing to my phone is easier than scribbling a number onto a scrap of paper when finding a book on the shelf.
The last time I travelled, I kept a pen and paper diary. Many years ago I did a blog but you either have to carry around portable computer or spend an hour a night on a youth hostel internet machine. I'd rather jot down my thoughts whenever the moment strikes. Entrepreneurial types might monetize travel into a book or a website but my adventures aren't really that unique or off the beaten track - it's the personal memories of the people I spent time with more than the location that count.
2) Yes, with Saudi Arabia threatening to destroy the world economy over 9/11 legislation, perhaps it's those countries that have made the effort to switch to electric vehicles that will be insulated from the shock-wave.
Well you probably want the uncensored cut of the Trek reboot, which had Kirk screwing a green chick, who coincidentally was the roommate of the blue chick from Avatar.
Eventually, phone technology will plateau, but the difference between a phone from 2013 and today is still significant.
A Galaxy S4 released in April 2013 with a quad core CPU, 2GB RAM and a 1080 screen is still a perfectly capable device, even if you say the latest flagship has a nicer screen and double the RAM.
Power users will always fuel upgrades but I think we're already in the era where 3 year old technology is *adequate*. Yes a new phone will naturally perform better but for many users, replacements need only happen when the device breaks.
If facebook thinks their core demographic is Hillary, they may be mistaken.
I am not from your wonderful country, but the vast majority of Americans I have befriended seem to be Bernie backers.
That story the other day about The Guardian, a news organisation that pretends to be lefty, receives a barrage of hatred on every story whenever they skew the reporting to be pro-Hillary.
Populist net savvy voters will flock to Sanders, not grandma Clinton.
Haven't ports of debian already been tried to alt OSes such as FreeBSD, HURD and OpenSolaris with a tiny number of users to support and develop the platform?
Why confine yourself to Unity? You do know you can select a different desktop environment at login just by installing the appropriate package, right?, e.g kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop etc.
There's practically no difference between the various ?buntu flavours except which DE gets packaged on the CD you download.
If I didn't know any better I'd assume they were building hype towards a new major release and a flagship Nexus phone in time for the Christmas gift buying period.
My country had a carbon tax once. The other side panicked "OMG, they have a policy!" and promptly dismantled it over a propaganda campaign about the cost of living.
A problem with thieving conservatives is that they sell of government-owned power industries to multinationals who then bribe the political class to oppose any action that would threaten their profits. This new government then turns up to Paris and claims to have solved global warming through creative accounting. At the same meeting there is a pledge to end fossil fuel subsidies, which this current mob refuse to sign.
Oh and no, I don't drive a car. At the state level one party pretends to care about public transport for a new inner city metro while doing nothing for the 'peasants' in the outer suburbs, who swapped their humble sedans for guzzling SUVs years ago - so they vote for the other party that promise more and more freeways. "World's Most Liveable City", my arse.
If the political system is rigged but one's household is personally reducing emissions by replacing old appliances with more efficient ones and installing solar panels yet emissions keep rising then, sorry champ, my apathy kicks in.
There's likely no way they'll have the subsystem able to host X (or Wayland or Mir), it's not worth the effort.
No need. The common UI toolkits for Linux (Qt, GTK+) work on Windows already.
apt-get install gimp gimp
GIMP calls through to GTK+, which detects it's running on Windows and specifies a Win32 backend. Thanks to dynamic linking, the original GIMP binary for Linux doesn't need to know or care.
The point is that MS are touting bash support as a milestone for their compatibility layer.
What is being downloaded is a minimal amd64 Ubuntu image. I don't know the specific technical details but it's like a chroot mounted at c:/users/ChunderDownunder/Linux.
So its not just bash, pick any package from your local Ubuntu mirror - including the list of commands you mentioned.
okay, smartypants but I've never heard of it. Maybe I need to get out more but my circle of old farts (with not an American teen in sight) is content with skype, facebook messenger, google hangouts or whatsapp, or an xmpp server on the lan.

Jake and Nyetiri's Bogus Journey - guest starring Halle Berry as Rufus.
Empire Strikes Back was episode 5. Attack of the clones was the second movie and it stunk! :)

Alas Kraft once plucked a product name from an internet poll. A week later they held a second poll selecting "Cheesybite", which is almost as bad.
Vegemite for people who don't like Vegemite... FFS, in destroying a national icon they even had vegemite-flavoured chocolate bars.

My recollection of the dialup era is that the codecs that Apple bundled with Quicktime (Sorenson?) gave it an edge initially over AVI and MPEG.
2 companies I've never heard of ? :)
The mail server was for personal use only and never intended for general rollout.
Just wait until she gets to the oval office. HillaryMail will assign a free universal email account to every US citizen

Ha ha ha.
Fraudband, enough said.
Don't blame me, I didn't vote for Tony.

I used Ubuntu for a number of years thanks to the Warty Warthog cds they mailed out.
But a while ago I tried the net-install of debian and can't see any compelling reason to use downstream - never a big fan of Unity etc.
Well in my case it's my university lessons.
That and the local tv stations that repeat programs online, where I'll load one of their movies when there's nothing on.
But for general usage, no. Which is why I don't have the Flash for Firefox but Chrome ships with its own internal copy when I do need it.
Nice in theory.
In the real world people still available themselves of content that they rely on served only via Flash.
Which is why I use Firefox as my main browser and Chrome for those sites that require it.

command line only, a UI isn't a goal, initially.
