we will be equal to white people

You are equal to white people, whether some bigoted shit stains recognize that or not.

Close. We natives pronounce it ‘kuh ned eh kit’

He’s rich and famous though

Firefox isn’t chromium

I agree. But it compicates the situation to the point that “durr just use Linux” is kind of a silly solution in this particular case.

Because they’re teens

Yeah, this wouldn’t happen on Linux because it’s impossible to install most firmware updates!

I don’t think anyone would have an interest in covering it up. Thanks to Cobain, suicide was en vogue at the time and it would benefit his image more to be a tragic case of losing a battle with mental illness instead of a depraved rising star who flew too close to the sun. I think the press went with suicide at first because it made for a better story and corrected themselves once more information became available.

Yes, I was an avid MTV watcher at the time. I feel like it’s more likely they made a mistake in the initial reporting than covered it up. He wasn’t that big of a celebrity, you don’t do that for a one hit wonder. In fact, if he hadn’t died I doubt anyone would even remember blind melon.

He had a heart attack from too much cocaine. I guess it’s not impossible someone would intentionally kill themselves using coke, but it’s not very likely. He had access to way more effective drugs if that was the plan.

Tell that to the people who aren’t able to function on their own or lead a normal life

I remember drilling out the the write protect hole so I could reuse them. Floppies were expensive and I was broke as a teenager, I loved aol disks.

France has been protecting Roman Polanski from consequences for drugging and raping a child for like 60 years. Macron is just keeping tradition alive.

They consider “what do I need to run this product” and “what’s the TCO”. Most larger orgs will have a healthy mix of windows and *nix servers and often a separate team to manage each.

Just about every government and business. I’m guessing you’ve never had a job in IT.

The civil lawsuit nearly died in 2016, when President Barack Obama vetoed legislation to carve out an exception to the sovereign immunity of foreign governments and permit the families to sue the Saudi kingdom. Congress overrode that veto, however, allowing the suit to go forward.

Add this to the list of horrifically evil shit Obama did

Took less than an hour for the comments on this article about turkey to become about the US

A lot of our residential infrastructure is underground, because of the weather we have.

I get that. A lot of ours is too. But I live an hour from the area I’m talking about, the weather isn’t that different, and I still see wire poles up there waiting to be taken down by a tree branch in the next ice storm. CTs trees tend to be pruned so they don’t overhang the roads at all. Its the most jarring difference driving from, for example, Sherman CT to Pawling NY.
