Hey, guys, this is a bit of a crazy idea, but maybe both proprietary and free software could exist at the same time and cause progress to society at their own paces?Both philosophies have discovered new technologies so I think this is fair to say.
What do you think about this?I think inb4 RM.
This.I've decided to dual boot Windows 7 and Linux and I'm debating about what distro to use. Here are my specs (copypasta):
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T5270 @ 1.40GHz 1.40 GHz
Installed Memory (RAM): 2.00 GB
System Type: 32-bit Operating System
Suggestions?
Most warm and wonderful of gentlemen:
The advice of this gentleman would be to cease and desist any and all thoughts of installing the operating system know as "Debian" and/or "Linux" in general. You will spend many nights weeping until your eyes become dry, wondering why the kernel will not compile. You will ask yourself "Why did I install this piece of shit? And how do I get rid of it now that it is on my system."
I beg of you to reconsider. Please kind sir!
Warmest and most delightful of regards,

You make it sound like the children are not rioters. They are wearing balaclavas, are raiding the shops and are mugging people using their enormous numbers. At what height should a person be before you hit them with a night-stick? You can't guess age from someone in a hoody covering their face. Is it ok if they hit the teenage girls too? They're just scum after all."Won't somebody please think of the children?!"
Well this is weird. I suspect that the one who is not PizzaPlanet is also not frosteeWas it perhaps related to the alt "NotPizzaPlanet" ?
Certainly it was .
As do most of usI generate at least a view a day to his comic giving him ad revenue etc.

How was that an insultIn my experience, religion tends to amplify the kind of person you are.
Insult is noted, but I was stating what I believe - not looking for an argument.
I think I can agree to disagree with Raist, and I do respect what he says on quite a few other issues.
Parsifal: Bringing technical nonsense into threads which don't need it.Unless the state in question is run by morons and put .com addresses instead of .gov or .us
That's probably the case. California and Utah's are .gov, but Wyoming's is .wy.us. I'm pretty sure this is legit.
Yes.
ccTLDs were never intended to be used as most countries use them today; they were supposed to be further broken down by geographical region. For example, an Internet site at my old University might have had camperdown.sydney.nsw.au. This geographical division of the ccTLD namespace is in contrast with the administrative division of the gTLD namespace, which is broken down by organisation -- for example, my old University's physics department has physics.usyd.edu.au (note the corrupted, but nowadays perfectly standard use of administrative labels underneath the geographical .au ccTLD).
Thus, wy.us is one of the few examples of ccTLD use as originally intended.
Nice one! You've been before then?No I haven't, but upon purchasing a bottle you can claim one square foot of land (which I did) Interestingly, in a roundabout way I can kind of all myself a Lord because of it
