That is not even a relevant reply. Try harder to fail

A business can't close early if the owner so chooses?
Where do you live? I do not want to live there

People who are qualified to modify or create code for the Linux kernel are going to be pretty damn good coders. If they weren't, well they wouldn't be contributing for long. So basically this is saying unpaid, good coders find jobs quickly because companies are completely fucking stupid.

Taxis? Certainly. There are differences regulations, but they are essentially both cars driven by someone for earning purposes and hailed on an demand basis. Neither a cab nor an uber will stop by my house on a scheduled basis if there is no incentive to do so. Buses and trains, well those are meant for public consumption, not on demand consumption by individuals. The maximum utility is generated by adhering to a prescribed route and timetable. A bus or train set to the whims of an individual is wildly impractical.

Not really. Their description in the summary is pretty spot on.

The ability to get a warrant "without providing specific details" and the person doesn't have to be within the court's jurisdiction.

That's, um, just as troubling as it sounds.

Do you know what a corporate VPN is?

I only ask because it does not seem like you know what a VPN is, let alone a corporate VPN.

Let me help you since you can apparently type out an entire summary but not the letters "google.com" into the address bar.

I just don't give a shit enough to contribute. I already have hobbies. I get paid to administer, consult, develop, and test at work. Most of my hobbies do not involve computers (sports, reading, music, good ole fashioned napping). The few that do relate fairly closely to my line of work, which is largely closed source.

tl;dr - neither the time nor the willingness to contribute to something that only affects me tangentially

Not that I disagree with jettisoning him, but this is a stupid fucking idea.

Not since the early 90s. Find me a working Mosin for under $50. You won't be able to. Those things run several hundred dollars for the most part.

Eh I googled it and didn't bother to switch it. Beta is horrible though.

Now Bennett can finally find a phone that will let him buy a movie and download it directly to his phone!

He can finally gt rid of that LG Optimus, assuming Dice pays him enough money to buy a new phone! (or he has enough money left over after paying them to be his personal blog).

Animal House was an awesome, irreverent movie that has stood the test of time and become one of *the* classic comedies.

Animal Farm is a dystpoian, allegorical novella about government overreach and oppression, which is what I think you're going after here.

Where the fuck are you going to see movies? Seriously I have no idea.

Are you going to a circle of hell that only caters to people who don't like movie theathers because almost nothing you've described accurately resembles a movie theater run in the last 50 years except maybe the price and cleanliness.
