FreeBSD can hold its own well against Linux. You can now use it as a fully functional desktop OS, no worries (GhostBSD for the uninitiated). Best part is the ports tree, works better and easier than the AUR. Take your pick: https:/&#x

That's the point of the scientific method, you undeniably prove your theories, or you are a fraud. Hypotheses must be challenged, especially for the prices hospitals charge.

Dude medicine has a failure rate as well, it's nothing that interesting. It's clouded in economics and politics, meaning it will never be truly altruistic. It's not much different from thinking software is a miracle. Human er

The USA has had Mach 23 ICBMs [1] and Mach 10 anti-ICBMs [2][2.2] since the 60s and 70s respectively. The Sprint rocket actually glows white hot because of its high speed. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGM-30_Minute

Not good enough. I want to make money with my apps. I support the idea of shipping the source upon purchase only.

You're right. Too many people take freedom for granted. It's easy when it's someone else doing all the work.

We've been hearing about tipping points and irreversible consequences for 30 years now. So wake me up when it happens or you bring up scientifically backed solutions. Until then, I'll just watch 2012 every christmas.

Because code has no political or other opinion - it either works or it's trash. When one or two people in the world ban good code, everyone loses. Rather, those one or two people are problematic and could use psychological guidance to

Have you ever assumed it's not some weird psychological effect but rather that people aren't interested enough in technology? It's like trying to preach GPL to the average programmer; who cares really?
