Yeah, getting away from ads after a lifetime's exposure just highlights how disruptive they are when you see them again. Especially since most have negative value to the consumer.

I was wondering, the timing was a sore point for bsd users back in the day. But linux had the upper hand because it was built on pc, spoke the language, so to speak. The groundswell was immense because all the hobbyists already understood the boot stack and the machine code. I don't disagree but it is "coulda woulda shoulda".

If they had ported to 386 a few years earlier, linus probably would be a bsd enthusiast. It is also possible the window that drove him there could have persisted well past bsd on 386. Who knows.

BSD was released as a standalone kernel over ten years before linux.

I thought brawndo was a mad-magazine-esque pun for kids based off a popular detergent logo from the early 80's. Never saw idiocracy.

Maybe the maintainers hired by the trump team don't know that?

Oh god, that was 27 years ago. No can do, that's lost in the black hole of time.

Just remember that we could all have our social security if the top 1% paid a fractionof the taxes they used to.

stupid. half the college grads I know, a good number of vets, and none who have ever been in trouble, ever, have tattoos. you are just sick in the head. I don't have tattos, don't like them, but I don't choose my friends by it, or use it as a moral compass.

The em drive is what you're thinking of, this is something different. That thing dropped off the radar a long time ago.

simple solution, tax rate goes up by margins based on the standard deviation from the last year's income mean. for income more than one standard deviation above the mean, your tax rate for that margin is the percentile rank of your income compared to the last year's incomes. something like that would be fair. then mandate certain percentages be spent on education, welfare, etc. anything left over in the budget from the last year gets split evenly among all taxpayers.

field on one side, field on the other. if I am on the interstate, the surface gets really shitty on our side because brownback and the republicans in topeka drained the highway fund to give the koch bros and fat corpo-farmers a tax break.

while alcohol is destructive, if you stop it, and excess sugar, your body will recover. later down the line maybe, but it will. 20 years without alcohol here, good luck.

dude there is some guy driving around town with a fake gold license plate and trump stickers. lucky if they lose five seats. conservatives worship heirarchy and if they didn't figure out trickle down doesn't work after the last fifty years, well, there you have it. their anger will be redirected at the "liberals".

No, we don't need this at all. businesses need to be fined out of existence for using the ssn, and lenders should do due diligence without some imaginary score.

most states have a statute that specifically shields cops against liability for instances where they don't enforce the law. this allows them to let certain people off.

however, the cyclist can still sue for injury. just the insurance co will use the cop's lack of issuing a ticket against them in court.
