There are still maintenance/wear items you'll need to address. There are still mechanical components the make up a drivetrain.

Jasper here, even cheaper. A neat little town not too far from the Ham.

> - Bullying and harassment

It's not the majority of the time, but I've see policies against 'bullying and harassment' used to silence anything but. That might be what is worrying OP.

Re:KDE Project releases KDE 1 on Friday October 14, 2016 @09:08AM (#12707789)
To me, it sounds more like that's the only point you can salvage from your original post. And that's stretching it.

You see, that's where you're way off base. Not everything shown here is going to be a 'product'; people often like to learn by doing, and showing what they create.

Re:Evidence points to another leaker at the NSA on Monday August 22, 2016 @12:25PM (#12337429)
Can't speak for OP, but that's probably it. After the whole cluster that blew up around him the community seems very split in their opinion of him now.

2 sentences in a large number of unrelated articles becomes tiresome I'd imagine.
Re:The rational exuberance of 5G on Thursday June 30, 2016 @01:26PM (#12010153)
For example, StraightTalk gives 5GB at 4G speed, however will slow you to 56Kbps (yes, dial-up speed) after.

Jealousy
Ran into this myself. Lack of ability to access the tty's greatly reduced my ability to even debug the situation further. I just moved to CentOS.
While I agree that there is a conspiracy element to it, research has been done into this area before by Facebook. Whether or not it's in use is a whole different can of worms.
Re:ZFS is the FS for Containers in Ubuntu 16.04 on Thursday February 18, 2016 @01:07PM (#11127813)
I wonder if the licensing of the ZFS kernel module will cause any issues with its inclusion in Ubuntu?
Re:Xv6, a simple Unix-like teaching operating system on Monday December 28, 2015 @02:37PM (#10802894)
This is an excellent little project to play with if you want to learn more about the functions of the kernel. The accompanying book is a great resource and provides relatively simple projects.
Re:Super small Docker image based on Alpine Linux on Wednesday December 23, 2015 @09:17AM (#10783350)
Alpine really wouldn't fall into the Enterprise category due to it's small size and developer pool. It's a great community project that I wouldn't doubt has some form of corporate support financially.
If I telecommute, I manage hundreds of servers from my bedroom. I don't see the issue here.
Re:Ipv6 traffic just shy of 10% of total on Monday December 14, 2015 @10:01AM (#10731314)
It was recently that I could even talk my ISP into giving me a static ipv4, so I'm not going to try and push my luck on ipv6 just yet.
Re:How I wrote a self-hosting C compiler in 40 days on Monday December 14, 2015 @09:59AM (#10731304)
This is really interesting, and I was glad to see the author go beyond just the stated 40 days and give insight into where they went after it was 'self-hosting.'
It's a scummy tactic, but it payed off for Yelp so it's likely also a safe bet for them.
I believe some over the air TV still goes over the 600Mhz band.
I like Tox, I've used it plenty to keep in touch with friends, the big issue that it faces is convincing people to use it rather than Skype. The privacy conscious seem to be more likely to switch over, though.
