The plot for Amazon Women From Mars II.

As far as the init system goes, the vast majority of packages are not daemons. Only daemons require init support. Writing sysv init files is an art, but it's well-refined. It won't give you the fastest possible laptop boot. Laptop users who don't just hibernate or suspend, but do fresh boots frequently, should definitely go systemd. Of course systemd D is a Borg, assimilating far more than init scripts. But the task of maintaining a couple hundred init scripts wouldn't be hard for a small committee of volunteers. For init stuff outside that, if you can't start a daemon from rc.local you shouldn't be a sysadmin. For the non-init stuff, the trick is to convince upstream developers to support diversity, which can be done by continuing to embrace open standards and APIs.

I would care more if slashdot let us edit our posts.

All this hassle over beta and we can't even edit our posts for short period after posting them to fix them.

I'm thinking small men who are disproportionally strong.

Continuing the line of reasoning...

Send only people with low metabolisms.

Send only people with dwarfism. (I think the actor who portrays Tyrian in game of thrones is smart enough to be a mission specialist if not a full out astronaut). They can be very strong.

Perhaps 4'6" males have lower metabolisms than 5'6" females and might still be stronger.

Sadly, yes.

Because if it hadn't been there, sure as shit, someone would have bitched about a statement like that being missing.

People nitpick the submissions and never complement the good ones.

Not a bad idea. Mosin Nagants are still cheap, plentiful and there's still a bunch of ammo available.

Your response demonstrates that you failed to read and understand my points. There will always be limits to freedom of speech, but those limits are much more restrained in the US than the UK, just to go down the list:

It sounds a lot like you're walking back from "near absolute"

And just for the sake of pedantry, it's worth mentioning that no one has a Constitutional right to free of speech.
Our right to free speech is natural and the Constitution limits how the Government can infringe on it.

/I'd also be interested in seeing your citations on the fighting words doctrine being overturned, the Supreme Court doesn't really agree with you.

Or because Apple hasn't (acknowledged that they have) been hacked yet.

It is, they're just increasing the punishment.

I can't help but think that anyone who believes this is anything less that wildly ignorant about the Constitution and Supreme Court jurisprudence.

Here are some broad exceptions to the constitutional right to the freedom of speech:
1. Libel, slander, and various forms of misleading statements
2. Inciting others to violence
3. Fighting words
4. Disturbing the peace (offensive words can be considered a breach of the peace)
5. Intentional infliction of emotional distress
6. Copyrights & trademarks
7. Obscenity
8. Commercial speech

I may have forgotten one or three, but I think that suffices to make my point that there is nothing remotely like a "near absolute interpretation of the constitutional right to the freedom of speech."

Equally important to the point I'm trying to make is that at least 5/8 of those exceptions were well established as law when the Constitution was written.

The original concept for the cellular network was a series of big outdoor towers which talked to indoor base stations.
Of course, building owners didn't want the expense of (retro)fitting small indoor cells, which led to a lot more outdoor towers than envisioned.

I think it's interesting that 100% juice does not have the same effects.
Juice is increasingly being treated as junk food by dieticians and nutritionists because of its sugar content.
They don't even want juice to be treated as part of your recommended consumption of fruit.

Anyone who actually needs a 5k display should already have a backup system in place.
It's only real purpose is so graphics designers can work on 4k media without dual screens and for industrial/medical fields where high res images are normal.

The truth is, if you want to watch 4k media, you're better off with a 4k display.
Upsampling &/or stretching to fill a 5k display is less than ideal.

The closest thing to what you're describing was a 2013 SciFi series called http://www.syfy.com/robotcombatleague.

They were hydraulically powered humanoid robots that beat on each other until either one of them stopped functioning or it went to the judges' decision.

You know when they get it on facebook messenger; it tells you. You have no idea when they get it via sms, or even IF they got it. If their phone is turned off, lost, of they're abroad then the network might try delivering for a few days, then give up.

But sure, you know they'll get it on their phone because the system is too lame to work anywhere else; messenger, hangouts etc lets them receive it on their phone, tablet, laptop, desktop, or anyone else's device they've logged into.
