Personally, I give much importance to the presence of a physical keyboard. Keyboards are what makes the students able to create original content and tinker with a device. They make the difference between a machine that you can use to write essays, program, communicate... and a device that is only able to play Angry Birds and send short KTHXBYE messages on Whatsapp.

Interesting (in a scaring way). I wish I had mod points.

Adblock, Flashblock, uBlock, Ghostery all pick up slightly different items to block which combined do a pretty good job of breaking things like Facebook

Breaking Facebook is a feature, not a bug, right?

The USA has a long history of making friends with despicable regimes. As more despicable than Cuba, I'd put: Myanmar, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Azerbaijan, Saudi Arabia, Tajikistan, Rwanda, and Cambodia. Arguably tied with Cuba would be: Honduras, Qatar, Bahrain, UAE, Kyrgyzstan, Kenya, and Uganda.

Then, if you travel back in time, you have despicable regimes in Iran, Chile, and Argentina.

Trade is ultimately for more powerful in making positive changes in these societies.

My guess is that you come from the wingnut wing of the American political spectrum, and thus have a "four-legs-good, Cuba-bad" mentality.

Obstinate rage didn't work for 50 years. Maybe trade will bring change -- it sure works that way in the rest of the world.

Wow. First post and you've already hijacked the thread into another systemd flame fest?

No, it's not. Semver mandates that the major version is bumped exactly when there are "incompatible API changes". This is a simplified (and les well-defined) version.

It worked well with do-not-track, right?

How exactly is systemd causing this problem? Neither you nor the author on the other thread give any sort of argument (which is the reason why he/she was accused of being a troll in the first place).

It's like a caliper, but used by non-native English speakers than me. :p Thanks for the correction, always welcome.

Gee, what was the last legitimate mainstream science paper you read on the hockey stick? Rich, eh?

Projection isn't a river in Egypt.

Or maybe read some original papers on the issue! Of course, if it doesn't agree with Anthony Watts, then you'll probably consider it propaganda. Bet you never read these.

The thing with crankery, is that cranks never let themselves in on the secret. It is a "self-secret" if you will.

Haha, nah, denialists are the ones running the PR campaign, and Mann receives constant death threats. Do you know what a mimophat is?

The sad truth is that it will not cost the USA economy much (if anything) to make huge strides in reducing CO2 emissions. The technology is already here. Koch and Koch will need a new business model, which is what this is really about.
