Haven't notice any issues with OpenBSD smp for things like web serving, and with rthreads becoming the default libpthread lightweight threads have good performance

I was making a joke, but the limited number of actually interconnected neurons between your ears might prevent you from processing such.

You are ignorant of how marketing and sales work, aren't you? Step one, generate hype.

yes there is, plenty of admin web gui demand it, plenty of banks and other financial web gui demand it (retirement accounts)

flash might need to die but it'll writhe and groan for a few more years

Over the fence where we outsource our carbon pollution (China), I see rising middle class, longer and longer lifespan, better health and more food.

Some pollution problems but benefits again outweighing negatives. of course, they're smart enough over there to be ramping up nuclear and have thorium breeder program. So long term their carbon pollution problem dwindles

1. top of the line phone?, who needs one? not me. your question makes no sense. irrelevant.
2. I pay $20 a month to provider with rule that I use free wifi when available for cell calls (they have servers to tie to that) and internet access, it goes to tmobile otherwise. been using them for over a year. $10 would be half of that, assuming your $10 a month a valid number

In our state they stopped teaching cursive handwriting, right at the time I was doing research into genealogy using cursive handwritten census and military records. Are they totally trying to detach children from any ties to traditional skills, ability and history?

Western civilization and technology, much longer and healthier lives...yeah I can see all those ill effects. let's go live in a cave and beat hides on rocks to clean them

Reading comprehension fails you, I was not offering a definition for "assault rifle". Read again.

Wrong, relativistic mass a very relevant point when talking of any "massless" particle that has real world consequences regarding momentum transfer, conservation of momentum etc. All "massless" particles must have relativistic mass, they cannot exist without it

systemd is not simple to use, it is a bloated sprawling nightmare of complexity.

there are better looking alternatives for parallel startup and monitoring/restart (when desirable), too bad developer mindshare couldn't have gone toward sane alternatives that have simple modular building blocks which is the Unix way

The biggest problem with most public schools is lack of focus on the basics of speaking, writing, math, history and science. None of those even require a computer or internet connectivity. Children can get their office droid skills later, and even IT skills later if they choose that career path.

You are so busy being a pontificating numbnut you missed the sentence in the wikipedia article about relativistic mass

I think all guns can be assualt guns, if used to assault someone. For example, if I bean someone on the head with my black powder 1858 New Army, it becomes a Black Powder Assault Revolver. As opposed to shooting some SOB dead with it, then it's just a weapon.

You make me laugh. Black powder revolvers are way too much of a PITA for criminals to want or use. Show me links to black powder pistol homicides after 2004...
