What is the point of this hostility? Do you not get the point of this community?

With Google attempting to further lockdown Android, the time is ripe for Linux Mobile. Projects like this can help make it a viable alternative.

Thank you so much to everyone working on this!

That 49.8% is misleading - it implies that 49.8% of the country support him, but it counts only the votes that were actually cast. He only got votes from about 30% of eligible voters.

Of course we can't know who all those non-voters wanted to win, but I'd rather not imply that nearly half of all americans voted for him.

It is most certainly not sovereign US territority. We began leasing it from Cuba in 1903.

ETA: If it were US, the prisoners there would have rights. That's the whole point of putting a prison there.

I mean, if we wanted our best and brightest (and most compassionate) to teach, we would pay them the best salary they could get with their degrees.

Note to good teachers out there (I'm a teacher too): I'm not saying there aren't any! I'm just saying that those doing the hiring can't afford to be terribly picky.

When kids don't trust their parents, there's usually a good reason.

The problem with Bill Maher has nothing to do with his age. He sucks, it's true, but lots of guys exactly the same age as him do not suck.

Or just a US revolution could work. We don't have to kill everyone.

He wasn't "standing in the road." He was stopped, on his bike, at the intersection waiting for his turn. That is not only the correct thing to do, it is required.

ETA: He was also in his lane, which the cop illegally crossed into making his turn.

Most "silent" letters have some effect on the pronunciation of the word. They aren't there for no reason.

It would be like calling FEMA 'democrat run' when talking about the latest hurricane recovery efforts. It is literally true, but it is not relevant. To add it would only serve an editorial purpose, not a factual one.

It should be distanceraptor / time

Otherwise the raptors cancel and you just get velocity.

Wisconsin already blocks access to all goverment websites if you use a VPN. I can't even check the garbage collection schedule for my town. I always thought it was this misguided concept that they thought only "hackers" would want to be anonymous. It seems they are really working for the data brokers, who don't want anyone to be anonymous.

What the actual fuck do these nutjobs think the FEMA workers are doing? Looting? Registering non-citizens to vote? Eating the dogs? What?

The complaint is not about the terms "systemd" and "segmentation fault." Those are the titles of the affected artworks. Presumably the artworks themselves contain some trademarked property.

Also, this is utterly unrelated to patents.

It has another danger too, when it glints in the sunlight and blinds other drivers.

Chrome was always a bad idea.
