If somebody drawing the prophet is offensive to you that you have to murder people, then there is something wrong with you, and your religion.

Your religious rules apply to those in your religion, and nobody else. You do not have the right to force people to submit to your religion.

I feel no need to murder people mock atheism. No "honeypot" would send me into murderous outrage.

That is the difference, and it's a huge difference.

Murdering people because they express honest opinions is, almost entirely, a Muslim thing.

BTW: you do not need to "Defecate on the Qur'an" or anything like that to send Muslims into murderous outrage. Any civil, honest, criticism is all it takes.

If a drawing of the prophet is so offensive, then close yourself off from western ideas.

The west does not share you views, and you have no right to force those views on the west.

Red Hat is operating right out of Microsoft's playbook.

Remember when Microsoft was buddy-buddy with Apple, and IBM?

Once Linux is completely dependent on Red Hat controlled technologies, Red Hat will always be two steps ahead of the competition, it will be seriously difficult for Linux users to use anything except Red Hat.

What happens when Red Hat decides there is no reason for more than one package management solution? Red Hat will say that users demanded one standardized package management, and systemd will only work if Red Hat's solution is installed. Wait for it.

It might take them a while, but forced submission does work. Forced submission has worked throughout history, and it's working today.

Three stages of Jihad.

1) when in tiny minority, say you just want peace.
2) when in a more sizable minority, demand special privileges for Islam.
3) when in a majority (or close), take the gloves off

It is a brilliant strategy that has worked liked all hell for 1400 years, and is still working.

Ubuntu used to be awesome, now it sucks. If you have to advertised how well Ubuntu is doing, it's probably not doing all that well.

Microsoft hires far more H1Bs. As does IBM, Apple, etc.

The entire situation needs to be fixed. Singling out one company is pointless.

Start by donating to NumbersUSA. I do.

Management: "train your replacement, or you do not get any severance."
IT worker: "guess I have no choice"

vs:

Management: "train your replacement, or you do not get any severance."
Entire IT staff: "you try to pull that bullshit, and we all walk out"
Management: "okay IT workers, you win"

I think the rivalry between vi and emacs pre-date Linux.

Besides, what's so "ugly" about it? Not as if people are rioting in the streets. Just juvenile posts back and forth.

Amazing the way Apple convinces people that they invented things. For who did not know, Apple did not invent: the smart watch, the smart phone, tablet computing, the GUI, the personal computer, online music stores, mp3 players; or much of anything.

There are already watch devices that can take your pulse. They have been around for some time.

My understand was: Devuan was supposed to come out at the same time as Debian 8.

I would be interested to know if anybody has tried Devuan, and what was the experience like?

As I understand it, sysd startup time is faster when you a lot of applications to start at boot time. Because sysd starts the apps in parallel, it goes faster.

But, if you are running a standard desktop. sysd is probably slower.

Leave the laws as they are so we can use them. The government cannot make something illegal for one church, and illegal for another.

1) Start a church, or other non-profit.
2) Make yourself the administrator
3) Pay yourself a very small salary, that will be taxable.
4) The house you live in, the cars/boats/airplanes you use, etc. will all belong to the non-profit, so no taxes on the money needed to buy those.
5) Give yourself an unlimited expense account for food, travel, lodging, health care, clothes, entertainment, etc. As long as it is considered church business, it's not taxable.
6) Aside from taking donations, you can run a business that gives all revenue to the non-profit. Then take the money back out in the form of whatever you want: for example buy a car for the non-profit that is yours to use. The non-profit will, of course, also pay for insurance, fuel, maintenance, and a driver.
