Why, do 6-cyl aero engines typically have higher compression?

"Tales of Cisco-induced semi-psychotic fits are common. Often, people on a Cisco binge end up curled into a fetal ball, shuddering and muttering paranoid rants. Nudity and violence may well be involved too."

Truer words were never spoken.

And fuck the people WHO ALREADY LIVE THERE AND DON'T WANT IT TO CHANGE THAT WAY.

You people really have no idea what elitist dicks you are, do you?

Ah, I'd heard that the "Californicators moving in" was the given excuse why the larger cities are turning purple rather than red.

It's really that city people have a fundamentally different outlook than rural people do.

He won't, because in his tiny little mind being a victim gives him power.

Pretty much. The ones who scream the loudest about having to pay taxes and deal with food-safety regulations generally don't have any rational response to "well, we want to live this way, who are you to tell us that we have to live like you want us to?"

IT'S OKAY THAT WE DO IT BECAUSE THOSE OTHER PEOPLE DO SOMETHING SORT OF LIKE THAT.

Does "two wrongs make a right" work in Conservatania? You'd think it does on account of that giant chip on your collective shoulder.

So they're of the "our kind of freedom whether you like it or not" school of libertarianism. Can't say I'm surprised given that their plan was always to coopt the NH state government.

Prisoner's Dilemma, that's why.

The Windows 7 shell is good. The only Linux GUI to rival it, IMO, was Ubuntu between 8.04 to 10.04.

I've been a Linux weenie since 1999 (Debian from '99 to '05, Ubuntu from '05 to '12, now Mint) but in the past couple years I've been spending less and less time booted to Linux, with more time spent running Win7 and having various Linux distros in VMs or sshing into my file/media server. I'd really like it if Compiz would integrate into MATE as cleanly as it did a few years ago with GNOME 2, because stuff like live preview is just wonderful.

Another reason is goddamn PulseAudio. My sound generally Just Works in Windows but stuff kept breaking in new and exciting ways after each new release of Ubuntu.

Last is the video driver stack. Multi monitors also Just Work in Windows, and to be fair Linux distros have made big strides here, but it can still be a huge pain if you've got dissimilar GPUs and multiple monitors.

I miss having a good package manager with dependency resolution, and Cygwin just isn't the same as the Linux terminal environment. If I was still childless (kids take up gobs of time I could use to tweak things) and didn't have as big a Steam habit as I do, I might still be using Linux daily despite those gotchas.

Hmm... the Defenestration of Prague started the wars, and defenestration involves being pushed through a window... C# started it!

No Stuxnet on your watch.

Post your XFCE config?

Clearly he's never been called an impressive fuck.

Perhaps you should stop immediately assuming malice. That's a rather childish outlook on life.
