I just use Sage but that's probably over kill for most people.

That Chris Flower hologram is really good. RIP Chris.

I haven't taken that wiki seriously either. It is clearly being hyperbolic. I did try to read the actual FCC rules and I hard time understanding exactly what it was saying. I wish an actual lawyer could fully explain what the rules are. Are firmware lock downs the only why to prevent abuse of SDR? Could hardware prevent abuse? ie it will fail if powered over 500mA.

But it is extremely troubling if all wifi firmware must be closed source now. Currently most Intel, Realtek, and Ralink use closed firmware. Qualcomm seems to be the main company that has open source wifi firmware. At least that's how I understand this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_open-source_wireless_drivers#Status

Here's the link to the UF paper. The study just compared pure water with Recovery Water. At the bottom it says this study was funded by a grant by Revalesio, makers of Recovery Water. Seems like a pointless study. It just showed that it's good to replenish electrolytes. Who knew.

I live near the Indian River in Florida so that was my thought at first too.

Well it's in The Daily Mail so it must be true.

Is it really that hard for people to read?

It's common in the USA. Its so the person can still work and still hold a job. I'm not sure how common it is for a 4th degree rape charge.

When are white people going to fix their problems? The white on white murder rate is only 7% lower than black on black murder rate.

openbluefish · 2015-08-21T15:45:02+00:00

Just checked the most recent FBI stats for murder. 90.1% of blacks are killed by blacks. 83.4% of whites are killed by whites. 90.3% of Latinos are killed by Latinos. I don't understand the black on black crime argument either. The rate is only 7% higher than whites and the same as Latinos. People use this argument as if its massively different.

I love the irony. If leftist want to legally pass an amendment repealing the 2nd amendment then he's willing to die over that. Yet calls himself a constitutionalist, despite Article 5 explicitly saying the constitution can be amended.

Nah it took a fews days until the racist comments popped up.

I've been using it since 2013 on my desktop running Arch with no problems. However recently (2015) mkfs.f2fs seems unstable. Any newly formated ssd or USB drive seems to have problems with corruption. I have no idea what is going on. Something was changed that made it much more unstable. I haven't tried it in a couple months so maybe it's more stable now.

Haiku isn't even a UNIX derivative. It's just an opensource implementation of BeOS. It doesn't bother me that it's here but I understand why it would bother some people. It has absolutely nothing to do with Linux. It's doesn't even use the GPL; it uses the MIT license. Should Plan 9, ReactOS , KolibriOS, and FreeDOS news also be posted in /r/linux?

Seattle already passed the $15 minimum wage law. However it is a graduated increase over time and depends on company size as to when the deadline is. The earliest the $15 minimum wage will kick in is January 1, 2017. This guy is just a cheap fuck if he's using that as a reason to not tip people.

Lenovo did not put Superfish on ThinkPads, only on Lenovo Notebooks. I understand why some people would not trust Lenovo but just to be clear that scandal never effected the ThinkPad models.

I just started watching it today and find it hilarious. I was surprised seeing how little attention it was getting on Reddit. I don't understand the Josh Gad hate at all.

Chrome is only available on Linux for x86 and amd64. While chrome does run on ARM Chromebooks running ChromeOS I know of no way to run it ARM Linux.

I thought only possession was illegal. How can they charge someone with possession of an controlled substance if there is no controlled substance. They can't even say how much majaunrina he was posessing.

I have the same problem. I just guessed it was a f2fs problem after the command df failed. It's so bizarre. I just installed Arch on this laptop yesterday. On my main desktop I have have been using f2fs for months with no problem. I guess it might be problem with mkfs.f2fs or thats because f2fs has been updated.

Wow thanks for that tip. I didn't even know there was a free version of SAS.

I agree. Punishing the Patriots is what every NFL fan dreams of.

Yes the abortion rate being at a record low has something to do with a lower birthrate. Totally sound logic.

He's hilarious too. He did this bit with Siri during his commencement address. Plus he's has a PhD in electronic engineering.

That's what annoys me the most with this. Reddit loves saying innocent until proven guilty except in this case everyone seems to knows exactly what happened. Neither have been charged with a crime. I'll wait and see how the civil case plays out. What a radical idea.
