I have a training video for how to edit your ~/.fvwm/.fvwmrc file available for those who don't want to get caught on the Gnome/KDE Hat update treadmill.
Continually buying new updates of closed source binaries is 'running it like a business'??
One would think that, like filing cabinets, desks, etc., functions like email and document storage would converge into something very durable and unchanging. Instead we've accepted the notion that software vendors should throw it all away with each version update and start over, rather than patch and maintain software so that it converges into something better with each update.
But, this is a site chock full of people who make their business selling the same stuff over and over (IT types) so it's not surprising to see the 'throw it away and buy something new' sentiment very supported here.
The interesting bit to me is that the whole thrust of systemd seems to be to inject a Windows NT style Registry onto Linux. So it makes complete sense that the heady sort of developer who wants to foist this onto the Linux OSes would demand HIS WAY.
Naw. I like/etc and the vi editor. When I dig into a new install of NetBSD to configure it, those are the things I understand and those are the things that work.
The other thing about humans is that they are host to huge varieties and quantities of symbiotic organisms, which likely won't be spun up out of a test tube in a space ship. Those bugs in your gut are an important part of you, and the genetic diversity of them is just as big a problem as the 'embryos in a freezer' that everybody here is carrying on about. We're not alone; we will need to drag large chunks of our biosphere with us anywhere we 'travel' to.
I will have more respect for all the people who fling around the term 'Science' when more than a few of them even know WTF they are talking about. Start by reading Kuhn and some of the other scholars of science. The process is complicated.
'Science: it's what scientists do, and we need to listen more to what the scientists say' is sheer ignorance. Shake that rattle and dance.
They want magic boxes running magic programming languages,so that pesky "understanding" thing doesn't interfere.
Didn't you know? The world of software is more maintainable if it's kept extremely abstract and the actual functionality is locked away in magic boxes that only a few wizards are allowed to touch. That's the whole idea behind high level languages like Java, C++, Visual Basic, etc.
I am an Assembly Language programmer and code embedded controllers up from the reset vector. I remember the first time I encountered a coworker who was a habitual high level code slinger and couldn't get it when the timer wouldn't do anything, cuz they never initiated it. That's an aside, though. Stick to your highly maintainable object orientation (coded in whatever language is in fashion ATM.) Fantasies are fun!
When I hear somebody like you bemoan the huge contributions (the most significant total amount, actually) trade unions make using worker's dues, regardless of the political positions of said workers, I'll take your ranting about 'them koch brothers' more seriously.
Anyhow, like Obamacare, its now entirely settled law. Suck on it, dude.
Enlighten us. Why would anybody want to wear a shirt with a picture of a serial killer like Che on it? For the irony, like wearing a Manson or Dahlmer shirt? Or is it just they're ignorant of who Che was and what be did?
Oh, there are significantly more homophobic schools of thought than communism. Islam, for example. It's a pity, actually that homosexual rights activists shine so little light on this, even in an era where 'multiculturalism' preaches the need to respect the rollout of sharia law in the west. Priorities seem badly distorted, to be honest.
One thing about bigots: they never acknowledge their bigotry. Far from it, they bask in self-perceived righteousness. Best of all is when they can point to someone else and call them a bigot.
Of course not, unless he somehow did it in a way that connected his actions to the business. I mean, what the fuck? Your pointy robe is showing, shithead.
I don't think the Apollo capsule pilot flew that thing 'solo.'
When you have a large 'Mission Control' infrastructure such that there is a guy sitting at a monitor whose entire function is to monitor your oil pressure (the guy at the screen beside him monitoring oil temperature) then your ride to the market will be equivalent.
I reject, fundamentally, the idea that 'The Internet of Things' means that every device in one's home should outwardly face the Internet. There is plenty of opportunity for layering. An IP enabled refrigerator can be connected to the internet through some far more secure routing device.
Security zoning functionality and monitoring technology for security purposes needs to see far, far more development than it does at present. Perhaps there are entities and forces out there that don't want us to have security zones and have devices on our home networks actively sniffing and moderating our internal traffic, but we certainly are entitled to that and should make it happen.
That is what computer science programs should concentrate more on, not securing everything as if every single 'thing' is entitled to, or needs to, face the outside world on the public Internet.
McCarthy wasn't the only anti-communist. He wasn't even a very effective anti-communist. Lots of people who at the time were virulently anti-communist wanted him to sit down and shut up.
Hubert Humphrey and John F. Kennedy, for two examples, were people who were virulently anti-communist and acted on it in significant ways.
One the one side, we have people who exercise their right to contribute money toward a political cause.
On the other side, we have people who make concerted efforts to ferret out the names of people who have contributed to said political cause, and wherever possible shame and harass them to the point of driving them out of employment.
Millions of people voted, not just Eich. Don't let your head blow up trying to come up with ways to get back at them.
Also, I would advise you not to try to claim a 'civil right equivalency' in front of a significant-sized group of ordinary* black people. That shit makes them angry, and it's part of why they voted so strongly in favor of Prop. 8.

Is there any angle a tard like you can take to blame Bush for this? That's your homework assignment.

Which Microsoft compiler is fully compliant with the current ANSI C or C++ standard?

The NetBSD ports collection, pkgsrc, has been ported to Slackware.
In a movie, that would be the point where the camera would zoom in to show a peculiar haunting alien 'flash' in the infected cult member's eyes.

If a game has a function for it, I hit 'random' until something that seems suitable pops up.

A significant number of people feel that Che was a serial killer. There is enough evidence to support the notion.

Sure, toss the whole rag in the works and entirely tangle up any possible discussion.

If you mean electrons, they never die. They just do work for us when we get them excited.

It's practically fucking McCarthyism.
Does your username here mean you're role-playing? I can't find any other way to understand all the stuff you've been typing in this thread.
