My next phone will have Ubuntu on it.

You make a good point here. Usually a starting-point for totally new physics are unexplained measurement results like the Michelson - Morley interferometry measurements. With this in mind, there are some really big questions out there, like: what is dark matter/energy. The answer to which may be paradigmshifting stuff. On a less dramatic note, we still don't understand what makes high temperature superconductivity work. Understanding this phenomenon could lead to revolutions in "ordinary" condensed matter physics (not to mention a few Noble prizes).

sequentially detonated propellant... Hmm... It seems to me we're getting closer to the design of rockets :)

using common sense to implement better gun control.

The drama in the summary is just too much. This is more like a fight with toothpicks. Not a lot of people use these things.

aaaand I'll be abel to boot Linux faster!

That robot looks like the Terminator, only that it's grinning.

You can't regulate people into having common sense.

Oh, it's dead :(

It would be nice to have a +1 "I hope you're right" mod.

Not much, but there is a cold-wave going through Hell.

This may work if the real plan of Valve is to release a Linux based console having Steam. From there supporting Linux is a no brainer.

let me continue. No because it is better if you have a good mentor. No, because you can't easily put wisdom and life experience onto a laptop / the internet. (sadly it is the widsom of the teacher that is most of the time lacking in schools with poor teachers)
