I am not a linux guy but had the same question and found out by googling a bit that it was because of software support. Major Linux vendors support only enterprise distros (like Redhat, CentOS and Suse)

As long as humans are involved in defining requirements, inaccuracy of estimate will be proportional to the cusomters' incompetence and level of bad politics of the organisation as a whole ;-)

now you are talking like an audiophile yourself - just kidding :-) there are people who appreciate high quality audio vs people who want 'seamless audio experience' vs snake oil addicts. They all are completely different things.

I think, assuming the older one is athlete as well, the younger one gets to practice and learn from not only a great athlete but also a 'coach' who can give personal fine tuned feedback. I might be biased but for the youger siblin

I feel this is not a very thoughtful comment. There can be many more reasons for not being able to afford a $1000 laptop other than local compensation right? Financial constraints like kids, mortgage, lack of spare cash for a new machine et

There are "program modes" in most modern DSLRs that can achieve exactly this. You shoukd explore the, you can even store multiple P-modes for quick access.

This. If you are solving a mathematical problem then think in math, if you are solving an accounting problem then think like an accountant. Programming is a general purpose tool to solve problems in various domains. Just because computer sc

In audio most objectivists believe that currently known measurements (frequency response, power handling abilities, THD, PSSR, other non linear distortions, noise floor, etc.) can 100% conclusively define subjective sound. But then on the

I think the 'news' have become a commodity in this information age. For example, people want to get the time but they can use their smartphone instead of paying for a wristwatch. Now a days there are so many channels to get news i

Exactly my thoughts. I would rather be in a job I love and taken advantage of instead of being in a job I hate not being taken advantage of.
