The US is set up by and large under the assumption that everyone has a car. It is not impossible to live without one, but you'll spend a YUGE portion of your time walking or arranging transportation, even if you live in a city. It is a huge contrast to Stockholm, where I don't even own a car, and having one would in fact be an unnecessary expenditure.
What you do is install a new version to a new hard drive, then attach the old hard drive and copy over all of your files, then spend the next few days configuring the system as you slowly figure out what packages you were using and install them...
The people who maintain the distro I use suggest the provided Export tool in the package manager for writing a list of all installed packages to a text or XML file, but what do they know?
I used to live on a short/isolated street with about 8 houses on it that ended in some woods. In the woods lived about 20 chickens--I was told by neighbours that someone who'd lived there had them, and just left them where they there when they moved away.
The chickens made a circuit of all the yards in the neighbourhood every 3 or 4 days, and were welcomed by all. After enjoying 2 nearly bug-free summers there, I understood why.
Systemd has not eaten my dog or anything quite so dramatic. And it hasn't caused me any problems, personally.
But I've always felt that systemd was a solution in search of a problem, I don't care for Poettering's attitude (especially as regards the Unix philosophy), and I remain suspicious about how systemd got injected into all the major distros practically overnight.
It occurs to me that the people who crap on and on about any story that doesn't fit their personal definition of "tech" are mostly the same ones who aren't getting the tech joke.
But it's pretty pathetic that you consider things like legal cases, actual accounts of people which are archived, news articles, actual statistics to be irrelevant.
Then you'll have no trouble pointing us to some of them, right?
I'll bet you'd be singing a much different tune if a male co-worker put his hand on your leg under the table. In fact, I'd like to be a fly on the wall in the room where it happens. I'm sure it'd be most entertaining.
My experience is that, 9 time out of ten, when a woman tells a man that she's in an open relationship, she's telling the truth.
I've also found that, 9 times out of ten, when a man tells a woman that he's in an open relationship, that's only true as long as his wife or girlfriend doesn't know that he's been saying so to other women.

Nice theory, but regulation of CFCs began roughly a decade before DuPont's patents on Freon expired.
"Non-Original", then. Whatever. B-)
TrueOS is what they used to call PC-BSD, right? Ah, so it is. It's been awhile--I'll have to check that out (again).
... But it's Linux, you have the choice.
Oh, hang on, you don't any more. That's what pissed most people off, I suspect.
Well, I wouldn't describe myself as "pissed off" over it. But I've some misgivings, sure.
Actually, it's more like the US wants international law where it's favourable to the US, and wants to ignore it otherwise.
Of course, the US is not alone in this regard.
Fake BeauHD as well. Note the double user ID and lack of Slashdot badge.
Of course, we don't need a passport to travel 400 miles...
Neither do most Europeans.

These were French Lops, definitely not for eating.
Damn. Ninja'ed.
The former grows from the latter.

Rabbits almost never vocalise but their body language is fairly sophisticated.

It doesn't surprise me much, either.
Double standard?

Please, go right ahead. We're waiting.

Except that "Not hitting on the hired help" is pretty much the antithesis of "unprofessional".

Of course, as always, YMMV.
The social norm for *adults* is to exercise something known as "self-control", and to save the sexy stuff for after working hours.
Oracle seems to be doing pretty well with a female CEO.
