So why are we banning Google Glass, but not cellphones? Cellphones have cameras too, they're much more annoying than glass for anyone in the theatre.

Sorry still don't care. The argument against systemd is being perpetrated by a small number of folks who have an axe to grind. They operate anonymously to hide how few and irrelevant they are.

Quake probably has better graphics despite being 15-years older.

I've actually heard both ways on this that Apple is taking a fee and that they are not. I can't imagine Apple (or another company) dealing with the implementation, infrastructure and liability for no financial gain.

They especially can't afford a good lawyer after their assets have been seized.

These programs are designed not to saturate the upload/download pipes ruining the connection for all the users. So congrats, your protocol has all the problems of BitTorrent.

Ruining the connections since 2001.

The OSX animations are awful, people have been using windowing systems for decades and completely grok what happened to the window. At most you need to a tiny fraction of a second to avoid the user overlooking the change. Please do not waste precious seconds or cause people motion sickness for your whizbang effects.

The fact that the claimed developers are anonymous is a pretty good indicator that this a sham in a misguided attempt to pressure Debian's vote.

Unfortunately in open source we always have a group of assholes who don't contribute but somehow feel they know best. Oftentimes their opinion will involve a lot more work, but hey they won't be the ones responsible, so who gives a shit

Entirely unrelated - are you using the 8188ce wifi card in this? Or did you switch to the Intel card? I find wifi on my x220 will continually die and need to toggle the radio switch to restart it.

They aren't expected to be stowed, anything non-electronic has always been allowed on any flight I've been on. Books, magazines, knitting, toys have always been around.

Except they aren't complaining about passengers with their hardcover textbooks out (or knitting needs...).

Or more likely they just won't provide wifi and everyone loses?

Like C or not the syntax has been the standard for most languages, and its the syntax taught to a generation of programmers. Language designers take note, deviating from the syntax does not increase clarity nor does it save time so don't unless using a different paradigm.

Having the poster child abandon the language and need to re-write its entire system was a pretty strong statement to the rest of the users. In reality though I think a lot of ruby users just moved onto node.

Its like the good (from the perspective of an oligarch) old days where you could have blacklists, collude on wages, etc.

Tolerating? They don't really have a choice, unfortunately arms merchants, manufacturers and other countries (incl. the USA) have long been supplying these "corrupt governments". This isn't the 1800s where the army and the individual have the same weapons.
