I don't count Android as a distribution because you can't change any of the parts yourself, especially the kernel. Unless you hook up your phone to a debugger, you can't do anything at all with the guts. I consider it based on linux the way OSX was based on BSD.

I've never understood this. What kind of sucker thinks that he will ever be able to take up arms against the government of the United States? The US has, by far, the most powerful military in the world. Explain to me how you are going to fight a M1 tank or an F35 jet with your Desert Eagle.

Lets say that a group of 10,000 armed citizens decides to take over the government. That is an extremely generous number. I would say that even local and state police could put down that kind of rebellion. And if it ever got out of hand, then a single bomb from above could easily take the fight out of the mob.

Windows, Debian, NetBSD, Android.
Seriously, all Windows versions don't deserve to be counted separately.
I've been using NetBSD the longest. I miss the glory days.

Your Answer should be:
Linux
Windows
OSX
Android

Such an amazing set of tools such as diff and grep would probably amaze them.

It wouldn't be a meeting without projector trouble.

The Bill of Rights.

I like the concept of taking direction directly from the will of your constituents, but how do you plan on handling...politics? More specifically, when the party needs votes and deals have been made, how will you stand up to the leadership and refuse to take part? Will that not render you an outsider and remove valuable (perhaps necessary) political clout? It seems like the Washington political machine is incompatible with direct democracy.

nope. Users of the software have to agree to the EULA to use the software. The sticker gives no way for the driver who reads it to refuse the deal (opt out).

However 200 people in small claims court won't deter any large company from misbehaving. Now a multi-state class action suit would not benefit the class, but it would sure as heck help keep Microsoft in line.
