Well, in case it's time for you renounce your totalitarianism celestial North Korea who convicts people of thought crime.
In CA, you cannot collect unemployment benefits if you were dismissed for gross misconduct. Such misconduct includes stealing from your employer. Don't let facts get in the way of telling a good story however. Hyperbole and misdirection are important literary devices.
No this really isn't more complicated than that. If "God" hadn't awarded certain tract to a certain group of people this WOULD HAVE NEVER STARTED! Unfortunately "God" seemed to have awarded it to both and to each exclusivity. If religion wasn't fueling the difference between the sides it WOULD HAVE BEEN RESOLVED LONG AGO. Why doesn't this "God" take the time to end all this strife and suffering instead of dicking around superimposing himself on toast?
The main problem is religion and always has been. Lose or even greatly diminish that force multiplier and suddenly humans become reasonable. At least enough to achieve some type of relatively peaceful secular coexistence.
I dumped FreeBSD for a number of reasons. Required to upgrade due to some security thing, Oh wait, some obscure library has also updated and now the entire OS needs to upgrade. And KDE too. WTF? When did Gnome get installed? Ah well, I wasn't going to use the computer this week anyway. One week later, nothing works, so I go to the mailing lists. First responses are usually "It's in UPDATING, come back when you've read that." If you haven't seen the snide, arrogant crap that happens on the mailing lists you are not paying attention. (mailing lists? are your reading what you are typing? mailing lists? This isn't 1988.) And yes, there are a large number of parts of the base OS (not the ports) that have crap documentation. And RTFM? If you need to RTFM to install software and keep a system running, the system is crap. I've switched to a Mac and Windows 7. Haven't had to R any FM since. No. FreeBSD is not a desktop system. If you want it to do useful things, don't install a gui and try to limit yourself to the base OS. Do everything from the command line. Aint that quaint. Otherwise, run away.
Well there is one thing to be learned here. Don't install FreeBSD if you're incapable of following instructions.
This is the biggest pile of whining drivel I've seen in awhile. This is what you get when you try to cover up incompetence by blaming it on something else.
Give me a frickin break. Was it or was is not you that said
Virtualbox is all well and good, but it doesn't have the infrastructure stuff
It would have been far more accurate for you to say Virtualbox is nearly on par with Vsphere, and coupled with VDI compares quite nicely. The VMware fanboi lacks the objectivity properly comment on the topic.
These stupid quibbles about Type 1 vs Type 2 hypervisor can be left to the bygone era. When there is no difference in speed or security as there isn't when properly setup, then the battleground becomes usability. We all know who wins there.
Both of your points are incorrect. Virtualbox does do far more for free on it's *open-source* product, and if you need the infrastructure support you can purchase it from Oracle. Their current product is called Oracle Virtual Desktop Infrastructure 3.2.
Really? Next I suppose you'll tell me Fascism is also some form of Leftism plot and the entire right-wing Christian coalition bringing it along were actually disguised liberals there to give the extreme conservatives a bad name. Let's be morally serious here and objectively assess the evidence. I would hope Coulter/McCarthy-like liberal paranoia could be reserved for a less educated audience where it can prey on ignorance and illusory superiority to gain popularity.
Being a responsible open-source developer means you confirm the bug lies elsewhere before assuming so. The "mark tainted" approach does no such thing. Hmm, I wonder does redhat have a hypervisor of choice?
Additionally, Isaiah 40:22 says circular not round. They have completely different meanings hence my reference to flat disc. The Bible also says numerous times the Earth is in a fixed position, another fallacy.
I've never heard of this belief before so I can't say much on it.
I'd have to research this further to be sure but I would figure that an "ice age" would have similar effects on earth's geology as a world wide deluge.
To be forthright, I'm no geologist but it's hard to imagine how a flood and ice age would cause identical let alone similar geological changes. They are very different phenomena. Not much need for an ark for an ice age either. What's more, if such an ark and loading of it were a true event the design, building, and logistical feat of it would by far dwarf anything mankind has accomplished since. This includes any space stations, landing on the moon, or any other engineering feat in modern history. A person capable of believing such a story without a shred of good evidence is capable of believing anything and it doesn't say much good about them.
a good example might be the practice of blood letting or the idea of the four temperaments
These aren't good examples because they aren't science and neither is shamanism. Pre-scientific endeavors to solve the mysteries of nature may or may not be true, but they simply aren't science. Perhaps a better example of your intended point would be something like string theory, but then I would say that isn't science either because it's untestable at this point. Do you have a real example of a currently generally accepted scientific theory you claim is false? I know some who doubt electromagnetism, yet they refuse to touch nodes of high current when offered.
These types of arguments of "remain skeptical of science" always seem so absurd to me coming from the religious. Of course I'm skeptical of science, but science has offered evidence and proof whereas religion has offered none after thousands of years of trying.
Also the Bible is perfectly compatible with science; it's brainwashed zealots who don't stop to think and actually evaluate things for themselves that are not compatible with science
Right, the whole earth is a disc thing worked out pretty well for us. And of course science has validated Genesis with light appearing several days before the star that gave it, the two separate creation stories of Adam, the complete lack of evidence of any world wide flood and the legion of other nonsensical mysticism in the Bible.
If you believe in evolution, you can't believe in the Bible or be a Christian as there would have been no original sin and therefore no need for human sacrifice, pretend cannibalism, or vicarious redemption.
You should read the NT. You'll find it doesn't say what you think it says.
--For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass the law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:18-19 RSV)
--"It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid." (Luke 16:17 NAB)
--"Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest part or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place." (Matthew 5:17 NAB)
Problem is those actions are warranted and condoned by the foundational texts of the religions. Torah-based are particularly evil by today's standards, and the clergy exists to give the masses only the parts they should consume. When you write a huge Cleveland steamer of unmaintainable spaghetti code that's the result.
Excuse me but what do you plan to use for basic userland? KDE has dependencies too, and even BSD systems are indebted to GNU. Although at least in the BSD case true progress has been made remedying that issue.
No it was not different hardware. For some reason the author thought it was a good idea to include per OS identifier string in table format leading to this frequent and grossly mistaken assumption.

Funny how the extremes of Left and Right both end up in exactly the same place: Totalitarianism. Maybe Left and Right aren't very accurate labels.
Yes, it can.

Well call me Uncle Eddit they do. And it's not Virtualbox. Try FreeBSD as your host, it and Virtualbox will be rock solid and and faster networking.
that the earth was a flat disc hanging from some sort of object despite the fact the Bible says the very opposite!
Sorry to burst your bubble but the entire flat earth belief system is based on the Bible:

I wish more followed the Bible literary. Left handed people freak me the fuck out and cannot be trusted. That book got it right about them.

Read the article it's the same system.
Read the article, it was the same system. OS's identify things differently and there was no attempt at standardization.
It's the same hardware, Linux and BSD identify hardware differently and the author didn't standardize it.
