Empire = golf courses and hotels?

I really hope they will do it. I love to run Ubuntu remote desktop on Azure.

Linux can become the dominant virtual desktop in cloud. Access by using X2Go VPN client, running win apps thru WINE.

EU has about 28 official languages. Quess how many does US have? Not even one.

Money can be created without a bank, like this: A businessman enters a hotel and pays for a room 100$ The receptionist escorts the businessman into his room Meanwhile, the hotel accountant pays hotel's debt to the local gas station, total 100$ Gas station entrepreneur pays his debt to the local whore, total 100$ The whore pays her debt to hotel, total 100$ The businessman is not happy with his room, and he is returned the deposited 100$.

Self driving cars will never show up in real life. For the the simple reason: they solve the problem which does not exist.

Next time I travel to no NZ: 1. change phone and laptop pws into "PasswrordNZ", before leaving the plane 2. exit customs: reset pws into "SksrF6458989%!#"

PostgreSQL has a long while supported Native XML extension, vs. MySQL/MariaDB limited xml shredding.

As a Finn, I would not mind to say that to Estonians.

If anode is is replaced with atmospheric oxygen, half of battery weight is gone. Altenatives are zinc, lithium and alumininim cathode. Zinc oxide from discharging process can be recharged without using eletricity. By means of carbothermal regeneration. ZnO is heated 1200C, carbon is feeded in the process and the result is gasified Zn. Heating can be done by using biomass, solar concentration et al. ZnO is safe, no fires in car accidents. Contrary to flammable Li an Al.

2.- No wonder Linus T. keeps on cursing.

I know 0 reasons not to use Mint. Hopefully they will persist & prosper.

ZnO from Zinc-Air batteries/cells can be recovered to Zn also by carbothermal method By heating ZnO to 1200C and adding pure C in the regen. process. Heating can be done by charcoal/peat ie. by renewables. The energy efficiency of recovery is almost 30%, not including the cooling of vaporized zinc. Energy density if Zn-Air cells is better than Al

It is unrealistic to assume new desktop applications in meaningful amounts for Linux. If it were possible, they should exist already. But majority of native Windows applications can be run on Linux deskto, by using WINE & Crossover. Linux GUI desktops in cloud environment is a realistic scenario.

Is this we need?
