The perp shot 2 guys and was shot quickly there after. In the video it appeared like 5 people were pulling out a gun. Unfortunately the perp and the 2 by standers died.

Good, there needs to be more competition. In fact all of Europe and Asia should help, make it open source so any country can use it.
Android Open Source Project aka AOSP is open source, and you dont have to google stuff on it, but Google doesnt need to aid in that. The project is already there, and lots of users flash to it. However users will find that it is not as functional because it wont have a search tool, email, photos, etc etc everything that is a Google service. I have a feeling that phone wont sell well.

Appeals Court Upholds FCC's Cancelling of Net Neutrality Rules (washingtonpost.com) 58
A federal appeals court on Tuesday affirmed that the Federal Communications Commission acted lawfully when it scrapped the U.S. government's net neutrality rules in 2017, but it opened the door for state and local governments to introduce their own regulations designed to treat all web traffic equally. From a report: In a nearly 200-page opinion, judges on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals largely sided with the FCC and its Republican chairman, Ajit Pai, who was appointed to his position by President Trump. While the agency must return to the drawing board on some elements of its repeal, the court upheld the legal underpinnings of the FCC's work, finding that net neutrality supporters had made "unconvincing" arguments in their efforts to override the FCC's deregulation of companies such as AT&T, Comcast and Verizon. But the ruling still appeared to offer a lifeline to net neutrality supporters: It overruled an effort by the FCC to block states from adopting open-internet protections of their own. The FCC preempted those regulations as part of its prior repeal, but the court determined the telecom agency had overstepped its authority. In unwinding the agency's blockade on such protections, the judges opened the door for states such as California to forge ahead with their plans for regulation. More: Court rules the FCC can't block state net neutrality laws.
Comment Re:Prediction: Windows will be migrated to Linux (Score 1) 119
Here is my Prediction:
Next year:
1) Windows and Windows Server (as brands) will still exist for years to come but will be fully migrated to Linux
2) Win32 will be open sourced and migrated to full compatibility with Linux, Virtually all legacy windows application will run natively in Linux
3) The full Office 365 suite will be available as a Linux native application
I doubt the Office 365 suite, they want to sell that online subscription !! They will migrate more of the office features to the O365 of the office suite.

Thank you for putting this into words, this is exactly what many are afraid of with regressives. Various media outlets and social media manipulation emphasize this for more views and make each side look even more extreme. I had not even heard the term regressive, but it makes sense.

There are alot of products out there that pretty good as an AV Gateway.
There is the Hauppauge MVP that is easy to use and setup, and yes you can put linux on it (if it isnt already).

It can stream almost anything but HD with an appropriate server.
A suggestion for the Ultimate at home Multimedia machine would be SageTV with its HD extenders that can play HD and almost everything I have found online. http://www.sagetv.com/hd_extender.html
(( Yes is it can play Netflix too !! ))
