It was a little rocky start but now, after a few updates, it works flawlessly on mine.

To bad about being discontinued but all things come to an end. It's a damn good tablet, I expect to get a few more years of use out of mine.

It has never happened, and never will happen as long as the ones that make the rules, also sit in judgement of themselves. For something like this to happen it would have to be put forth by a constitutional amendment put in place by the states at a constitutional convention. For it to be effective all the penalties and fines would have to be automatic, without appeal, or trial.

We are already a one party system, people just don't want to accept it. Democrat, Republican, it really doesn't matter. With no checks and balances in place on individual members one group will be more than happy to trample our rights.

Republicans, our rights to free speech, reasonable search and seizure, and a womans rights to her own body. Democrats it would be our rights to bare arms, or arm bears, and probably freedom from/to religion.

Same song, same dance, different tune. An I'm not even sure about the tune. Everytime I see a politician the theme song from the Benny Hill Show starts running through my head.

They are elected positions but with the system as it currently stands rarely do these people get removed from office. Voters simply don't care as long as they get their bread and circuses. An with 2, 4, and 6 year election cycles there are still to much time between elections for a rogue politician to inflicted damage that can take years to undo.

When a senator or house member sponsors and pushes through a bill that is found to be unconstitutional they lose their seat, right then, right there. Those that actually voted for the bill are fined a nice lump sum, 10K at least. If it is found that they sponsored or voted for a bill for personal gain, prison time.

With the prospects of losing a their seat, being fined, or jail time these "representatives" will pay a hell of lot more attention to what they sponsor and vote for. There will a lot less or "I scratch your back, you scratch mine" in Washington.

Once a seat is lost, it will stay lost till the next election cycle. The state or district that elected that member loses that vote in congress. Punishment for electing the idiot in the first place.

I've been saying this for years, more or less. When a civil servant, from the town dog catcher to president of the US, breaks a law, or writes a law they should be held accountable.

In the case of a police officer when they interpret the law wrong there should be repercussions. When a politician sponsors a bill and its found unconstitutional, there should be repercussions. When a DA files charges against someone and loses, there should be repercussions.

I prefer to put my faith in science. Peter F. Hamilton's The Night's Dawn Trilogy is a series of books based on what happens when our technology becomes so advanced we know what happens after death.

So what does happen after our technology does become so advanced we can bring anyone back from the dead?

Why would I bitch about something I have been using for 2 years? I'm very familiar with systemd, and doubt I would bitch about it.

Someone seriously, went to the effort to mod this down? Was it because I suggested that I might go to a dist with systemd on it? Really, don't you have better things to do than worry about what is running on my bitch box?

I'm already starting to see that. Most of the stuff I use runs fine. Mysql, plexserver, samba and a few other apps. I'm already seeing stuff that will not compile for it. XBMC will not compile on Centos6, and nether will the latest version of HandBrake.

XBMC is not really an issue, but Handbrake I use all the time to encode stuff for the plex server.

I suppose I should start looking to upgrade my old Centos 6.6 box. I'm running a 2.6.32 kernel on that. I've thought about upgrading to the new Centos 7,0 but I'm not sure I want to fuck with it. The current system I have works perfectly and does exactly what I need it to do.

I don't see why anyone should bow down to what the original developers wanted. They walked away from the project so the name and the code should be up for grab.

Anyone want to pick up where they left off and use the name truecrypt should go right ahead and do so. What are the original devs going to do? Sue them?

I wonder if this would work trying to serve the Crazy Bitch, errr, I mean my exwife papers for back child support.

Fuck this executive order. An executive order has no more word of law than marks I made on the toilet paper this morning.

Yeah, like that is going to happen. Once they realize there is no money in linux games, that will be the end of that.

I've always felt that if someone calls for the restriction on free speech they should be required to wear a muzzle for 24 hours. Maybe after a day or so of being deprived of their rights, they will be more tolerant of other peoples.
