Also Oracle steals from Redhat
I was not aware that forking GPL'ed code constituted stealing. Do CentOS and Scientific Linux steal from Red Hat, too?
No, technically not stealing, but it is shady behaviour. There is a difference between taking the GPL-ed packages, repackaging them and giving them away for free to the community (CentOS/SL), and taking it and selling it as a direct competitor in the same market. AFAIK, Red Hat is perfectly happy about CentOS and SL, not so much when it comes to Oracle.
I would guess that it is practically a given. RHEL7 is supposedly going to be forked from F18.
I would guess not. Though RHEL7 will be based on F18 or thereabouts, RHEL only includes a subset of the packages that exist in Fedora. Remember that Red Hat will be supporting the packages for 10 years. They'll choose the package subset with care. But on the other hand, I wouldn't be surprised to see MATE in EPEL7.
1) Because it will make much more sense to live in free space (IE on an asteroid or space colony) where you avoid the huge energy cost of going up and down a gravity well.
Humans need gravity to exist for a prolonged time. Our skeleton, internal organs, muscle etc. all depend on it. Unless you in some way emulate gravity in a satisfactory way, living in free space is impossible.
The only way to make sure is to demand thorough documentation of the manufacturing process and ensure the authenticity of the documentation provided. Consumer pressure is needed to make companies deliver green products on a regular basis. They will manufacture what the buyers want. Governments are usually important customers and can lead the way on behalf of the public.
As a side note, one should also demand that the products are "fair", such as the manufacturer and subcontractors don't exploit third world countries, the workers are properly paid etc.
