Sounds like those tools are the tools of oppression, not the internet itself. Open a UDP socket, and I can send you encrypted traffic all day long. You have the freedom to write and control software.
How is the internet a tool of oppression? I can send any message I want, to anyone, at any time, and encrypt it to boot. Sounds like Utopian free communication to me...
Why? Everything Lennart has done so far, controversial as he may be, has been in userspace. If linus were to step down (and someday he will), he'll be replaced by one of the many other kernel guys (like Greg Kroah-Hartman) rather then Lennart (who seems to have won the hearts of all of the distro maintainers...)
Here's the problem with that: my house is worth probably less then apple headquarters. I don't want somebody to show up and buy it out from under me against my will at any reasonable price. My house is not for sale: why should it be for sale at all times just for a tax evaluation?
compressionless wireless video, no lag between input and output
Years ago i worked with an analog L-Band wireless transmitter for NTSC video. The quality wasn't HD, but it was wireless video with very little latency and no compression...
There are plenty of distributions targeted at "People who want to learn and use Linux". This one is targeted at a different group of users. And that's OK.

pfft, they make $86-93K, they are not highly skilled admins
This is evidence that they're not highly *paid* admins, and only has a passing correlation to skill
Yeah, but he's right.

Beats makes wired headphones too... or did until very recently
Not that anyone cares much about audio quality . . .
People that do care about audio quality don't buy music from apple, they buy CDs, SACDs, or vinyl and rip it themselves
Eh, sounds like it'll be big and hard to seal against water and dust.
Except it's not very good for that.Cash needs to have somewhat stable value -- so far there isn't a cryptocurrency that has that.
ubiquitous surveillance during your stay
because *that* doesn't exist in the UK
Depends on what you've mapped it to...
No, it isn't. Just because somebody snarkily re-acronyms something doesn't make it the truth.
I'll admit, the word "probably" was a bit tongue-in-cheek...
Robots and nuclear powered spacecraft are both very expensive...

Oh, you mean people who's best interests are in generating as much tax as possible?
I bought one during the summer sale, it seems like a neat piece of hardware, but man is it wierd.
I *want* to like it so much, but i'm having a lot of trouble getting used to it. So much configuration!!!
The dongle still works better then bluetooth, if you can deal with a thingy sticking out of your PC
So establishing the web could be somebody's job. Imagine if i walk into a AAA storefront, show them my ID and pay a small fee, and they sign my cert.
My bank could do the same. or 711 for that matter. Hell, the DMV ought to, establishing identification is half of their job anyway.
All i'm saying is, we could have more "web-of-trust" infrastructure then just key signing parties.
No it's not, it's just resting.

Why would anyone use Kali over just using Debian and adding the packages they need? Is it some kind of 1337 H/\X0R cred thing?
Not on debian -- chrome only updates when i run apt-get update. just like everything else. Why give any program permission to overwrite itself?
