This is the only configuration under which it is even reasonably responsive (well it's more responsive with XFCE but I don't like it).
The hdd is only 20 GB, and install of XPSP3 with all the updates is not roughly 16 GB.
FreeBSD install with gnome/firefox3/openoffice.org-3? 5GB. And I still need to clean out the ports tree (I forgot to do it while installing the ports:|)
Were they realistically feasible in the first place?
Absolutely not. The quantity of land that would need to be re-purposed if a significant percentage of US oil usage was to be bio-fuels would be enormous.
Remote desktop. When troubleshooting, I can't just ask the person I'm helping to install VNC, because then I'd have to explain to them how open the port.
You do know that RealVNC will connect out to you right?
All access across the Internet can be filtered and scanned.
The security risk here is that there is no way to scan external media until it is already plugged in, and no matter what the anti virus vendors say even malware that they detect will often manage to execute before the file is flagged.
To do even this simple thing with Linux, all of our applications would have to be re-written to enable a new file specification syntax, hopefully one reasonably compatible with the past. We're talking about a shitload of work, so it's important to agree on a set of goals first, to avoid having to re-do it later.
And there you have it, that is the advantage that open source really has. Backwards compatibility can be dropped fairly quickly because other software that relies on those APIs can be rewritten by the same people who changed the API.

I have FreeBSD running on a laptop with gnome.

I guess they didn't have the foresight to use a real host.
I'll be here all night folks try the steak.
Sure it's economically feasible for a single person to do it.
But there just simply isn't enough French fry grease to power the entire country, or even a small portion of the country.
Are Biofuels Still Economically Feasible?
No

I hear this argument all the time. But have you ever actually ran the numbers for it?
Fords CEO makes 2 million a year. Ford has approximately 90K employees. ((2000000/90000) / 52) / 8 = 0.0534188034
So that means the CEO is effectively being paid 5 cents from every employees salary.
Big fucking deal.
There is not an unlimited amount of money to distribute here.
Every dollar that a shitty employee receives is a dollar that a good employee does not.
2) Problem transcends US Jurisdiction
The vast majority of spam originates in the continental united states.
... whatever that means.
Info
I'm not certain but it appears to be checksumming data while it is moving around the kernel after a write or read call is made.
Seems like something that should be handled in hardware with ECC, but what do I know.
Intel wireless chipsets work essentially flawlessly and are opensource
Or at least so the claim is...
They took advantage of the wording of the constitution.
Possession of marijuana is not in and of itself a crime. Possession of marijuana without the proper tax stamp is a crime.
Marijuana is not illegal it is the failure to have the proper tax stamp, which just so happens to be unobtainable.
I was assuming that you would be able to forward the port.

also TeamViewer is infinitely useful

The tables are in a horrible colors for some reason.
A reasonable person would expect a baseball to seriously injure somebody with an unusually thin skull.
The question is would a reasonable person expect a depressed girl to kill her self because of a fictional breakup?
The problem here is that you cannot answer that question unless you have been depressed or know someone personally who has been depressed.
The interaction here is significantly more complex than the simple baseball example.
Ill just leave this here....
Maybe you have not heard of OpenJDK?

Projectile flags?
Wait so they are just going to drop their flag on the moon?
That is just incredibly disingenuous, planting a flag has always meant that a human has set foot on the land.
Also Russia and Japan are lame for that as well.
Ever notice that the part that is slower involves you looking at an advertisement?
Me thinks that is not a coincidence.
The game is tons of fun, but you can't continue to play after you finish the main quest!
Regardless of the decision you make (no spoiler here).
It's not in either the gentoo or ubuntu repositories yet.
