I'm pretty sure that in 50 years those telescopes will be worthless, so uh yeah I guess they could steal them at that point. I doubt anybody would care.
Citation needed. There are FAR more cops than guards, so your guards have to be making a couple orders of magnitude more than your cops for your statement to even be close to accurate. Not to mean a prison guard risks his life a lot more than a cop on a beat, but you never bothered to consider why did you?
My bad, I meant on prisons, not on prison guards.
A saving grace to you is teaching evolution? You my friend are an entirely unbalanced person.
And you my friend could use a grammar textbook. I said that their only saving grace was teaching evolution. That does not so much as imply that the education system is acceptable.
Perhaps if California spent more time being sane and rational, rather than enacting laws and spending money on frivolous crap. The first intelligent thing that could be done is some population control, you know, intelligent zoning so you don't end up with overburdened highways because you all live on top of each other?
Clearly you do not have even a rudimentary understanding of the transportation problem in California. The problem is that we are too spread out. California is the land of suburbia, especially southern California. If the state was denser transportation would actually be easier because it would facilitate mass transit. The population distribution today does not allow for efficient mass transit because the last mile to the home requires a vehicle still.
California's problems are caused by rather retarded residents, who, for the record, voted that government in.
No arguing with that, but this thread is originally about government vs private. So how is it a good idea to give that government run and elected by morons control of anything more than they absolutely need?
Just because the CRA loans were higher quality than the sub prime loans made with falsified information does not mean that they were high quality.
The sub prime loans made using falsified information were complete junk. The CRA loans made with real information where low quality. A non-conforming 30 year mortgage (say a jumbo loan) is of average quality. A conforming 30 year mortgage gotten with no falsified information is a high quality loan.
The banks were forced to make low quality loans under the CRA; it just so happens that they were not the lowest quality loans.
(And yes this is mostly semantics, but semantics are important)
Were CRA loans the cause of the banking failure? Not a chance. People with CRA loans told the truth on their applications. The risk models were mostly based on the information volunteered by the applicant. The risk models actually did accurately model the risk if you go back and give them the real income (you have to take an educated guess for that).
Have you driven in California lately? The highways are significantly overburdened, the country roads almost all haven't been repaved in so long that they are little more than a series of patches, the only roads in California that are any good are the ones that are being fixed by home owners associations.
The schools in California are terrible, their only saving grace is that they teach evolution, now if only they would teach English.
Yes the police are a necessary part of any government; it's to bad we spend many times more on prison guards than we do on police officers.
I believe that he was saying PulseAudio was calling low level ALSA apis that are not often used and as such many drivers have never actually been widely tested. So PulseAudio is causing the drivers to crash.
I do not believe he was saying that an application connected to PulseAudio should not be able to crash PulseAudio.
Funny that just says that the iso files available are not official. I do not see where it says that the 6MB network installer is more official than the 200 MB installer with all of the file sets on it.
Actually what I'm saying is that just because they play by the rules doesn't make them special.
They use the best software available to them for the job they want to complete. If that happens to be an open source product then they are going to use the open source project. If they use an open source project they are going to want to fix and improve it. With open sources fixes and improvements must be contributed back to the community. They do not deserve any special acknowledgement because they are doing things in their best interest that also happen to follow the rules.
When is the last time that Apple released an entirely new project? For example Sun released ZFS under the CDDL.
So any modifications to ZFS that they included in their shipped product had to be distributed? GEEE THANKS FOR THAT APPLE and isnt webkit based on khtml?

There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo. Please use in that order.
I'd say we're close to the end of the third box...
Voice conversations are 64 kbps? That seems pretty high, is that assuming fixed bitrate and not variable bitrate?
Most Malaysian users' home broadband is capped to a measly maximum 4mbps because demand for bandwidth so far outstrips supply.
Sadly that is higher than many Americans.
Where can I buy that? oh right I cant.
The main advantage of ZFS is the silent data corruption becomes non existent. All of your data is protected with a string checksum.
Never underestimate the hipsters ability to drain the parents wallet.
Where do you think they get the money to buy those ridiculous bikes?
Delivering stuff on them?
Yeah sure maybe the first couple thousand of them. The other hundred thousand or so? Not so much.
A cherrypicked group of humans?
Yeah it turns out that some people are much smarter than the average person. Shocker.

Why would a real time scheduler improve CNC software?

I'm not in LA. The roads in the entire state suck. You must be in suburbia.

This is a telescope operating in Chile, it is only partially funded by the Chileans.

Not to mention that it could be refueled in orbit, so the heaviest part of the rocket will only need to get off earth once.

Even a 200MB iso would benefit from bittorrent.
Come on! FreeBSD has been releasing via bittorrent for a while now. Get with it OpenBSD!
