When's the last time it was every six months?
Hint: It was probably sometime back when the release was two CDs, and not 6 CDs and 2 double-sided DVDs.

The end game here is to phase out cursive entirely, then a couple generations down the road, nobody can read it, and thus the US Constitution (written in cursive) will be meaningless gibberish to the common man, and then "they" can tell them what it actually "says" with their own injected bias.
Next up, a cashless society...

I remember when first getting into Linux, I had a HORRIBLE time figuring out what 'ln' (link) did, cause all the docs skipped around defining it.
I wrote up some real world docs way back then and they turned into one of the most popular posts of all time on my site:

If their plan is to get more third parties to go along with their DRM, then they haven't really learned a thing yet.

Oh yah, bitch cause the Windows of old was insecure. Then bitch when they add security to the system. What you are disabling is a security setting that completely disables some things unless you specifically enable them. Not broken, it's called enabling a feature that isn't used on a standard user's machine.

Global Carbon Dioxide Levels Reach New Monthly Record 372
mrflash818 writes: For the first time since we began tracking carbon dioxide in the global atmosphere, the monthly global average concentration of carbon dioxide gas surpassed 400 parts per million in March 2015, according to NOAA's latest results. “It was only a matter of time that we would average 400 parts per million globally,” said Pieter Tans, lead scientist of NOAA’s Global Greenhouse Gas Reference Network. “We first reported 400 ppm when all of our Arctic sites reached that value in the spring of 2012. In 2013 the record at NOAA’s Mauna Loa Observatory first crossed the 400 ppm threshold. Reaching 400 parts per million as a global average is a significant milestone."

I tried to give it time. I've used it daily for over a year. Have lost the days work several times with that crap-documented piece of shit.
A whole year with Linux, and I had it near mastered. A year with git, and it still sucks. Everything's a manual pain in the ass.
Linus: I ever meet you, I'm going to kiss you for the gift of Linux, then I'm gonna punch you in the mouth for all the time I've wasted on your shitty git thing.

I have no mod points today, but I do beg others to change the mod to something besides off topic. It seems on topic to me, if a bit of a connected tangent.
