Can a kernel developed in a branched tree, with past contributions to the mainline neglected and deleted, doing things which wouldn't be accepted upstream, essentially forked as it stands now, be "most definitely" counted as Linux?
Thing is - "certainly" might be going slightly too far. The kernel of Android is developed in a branched tree, the code which was contributed to the mainline - neglected and eventually deleted. Effectivelly, as it stands now, Android has forked the kernel.
Ahhh, so after all you don't get that averages, both resource consumption & the results, is what matters here... And no, you don't make use of those extra resources you waste it while chasing...the same results (admittedly my place is beyond what is sustainable, too; but at least not nearly so wildly)
Oh I don't know know, maybe somebody on the continent from which Suse originates; might help that this place is not bad when it comes to overall Linux uptake...
At the least - look at all those governmental, educational & generally public institution and business adoptions. And it picks up steam over time, should diffuse. At some point, the realization that x86 is not really required, that many ARM chips are good enough, should get through.
Should help with how OLPC XO-1 will have an ARM version soon (XO-1.75, IIRC); it was also the trigger of netbooks after all. Yes, MS desparately tried and succeeded in regaining that segment (derailing it a bit in the process) - this might not work so well with machines where it would be harder to justify price increases.
And remember, there are only a bit over 1 billion PCs in the world. Mobile phone uptake, at close to 5 billion now, probably hints at what is still possible...
There's very little difference - you can't do all that much with CO2 (except perhaps some small turbine at the end of shaft, which I'm pondering in other comment), which is by far the main culprit in those lakes & for which you were most hoping for a solution...well, it's here for some time. It's all released into the atmoshpere anyway; just in a controlled, more gradual fasion & finding some use in the process.
So, all those governments, educational & generally public institutions and businesses don't matter all that much? They are all uber-geeks, tiny and marginalized?
People don't see how, slowly but surely, the adoption spreads. And should diffuse into other "market segments."
It would be released at some point anyway (methane and also dissolved CO2), but in a much less controllable, much less pleasant way (lake Kivu is mentioned). By siphoning it out gradually, you can not only deal with the danger, but also get some useful energy as a bonus.
Also, methane is a much more potent greenhouse gas than CO2, so burning it prior to release actually lessens overall impact.
This one was determined by external factors anyway; memory mostly. Too soon for DDR2, but when DDR1 was nearing it end. Not a hard thing to predict / times of viability of given memory tech seem to be slightly longer recently.
It's 3 in my place. 'W" is pronounced, also when separate, like a voiced "F" (though only my "F" (I think...), the closest would be probably EN voiced "V" but ending not in "-e" - more like "-y" (I think...); "V" is indeed hardly used - current version of local alphabet doesn't have it, even if it was present historically & it shows up due to influx of foreign vocabulary (where such letters are typically transformed over time to the ones in alphabet; there's no need for them / they can be perfectly represented)) or, more typically and when pronouncing "wtf" - like the first sound in voodoo, but short. And generally very close to how Latin is pronounced, supposedly.
The point is how it ceases to be a slang... And on a quite global scale, enabling unprecended level of direct interboundary (interocean even) communication - the very act of which is what has always shaped languages. But rarely among so diverse people (and, face it, with not terribly impressive / solid familiarity with the languges they use; vide this post...)

That's not how Google search insights tool works...

When it's faster... (which is more typical the greater the density of elevators in any given place)
Statistically I certainly do use 2-3 times less resources than you, for very comparable quality of life.

Of course, Hohokam didn't irrigate lawns of urban sprawl so much...
Plus "after a few years" & Quake3 somewhat suggest it's a generation supported for a long time by open drivers anyway.

Yeah, finally...and happening for around a decade.
You can actually stand the dubbing? ;p

When the water is brought up in a pipe to syphon out the dissolved CO2, you only need a small initial "push" - afterwards the bubbling of gas forces the flow / gives you a fountain. Why waste it? Seems like an ideal opportunity for small, simple turbine solutions...
Heck, those throughout the world, downloading the stuff, apparently also often have the opportunity of sitting through that warning...
Stay tuned as we reveal the level of involvement on the part of Apple? ;)

W8, why both of them wouldn't work?
Unless of course it gets interpreted as a "fight" of the stubborn kid, or whatever seems like a good reason to crank up the medications / try other.

"WTF" ends up particularly charming IRL, IMHO...though YMMV.

Aren't they doing it pretty much already? (Russia, IIRC?)
*BTW, how did "The film so funny that it was banned in Norway" end like that for your neighbours, anyway?
