  4. @omni To me it sounds like he doesn't really want a computer or internet access. If he wants to operate a car he also needs to learn how to use the steering wheel operate the lights, wipers, ignition, check the oil, refuel and learn the rules regulating traffic.

  6. @omni @widget To turn the system down, he has to press the power button on the laptop. I already found out how to configure systemd to listen to ACPI events (was quite easy, actually, just uncommenting a line).

  7. @omni How about you give your buddy a simple Windows computer which can browse when needed but can also be useful if he so wishes it to be?

  14. @omni Statistically, atheists commit fewer crimes.

  15. @omni I can understand the entirely human desire to pin the blame on an outside factor, but I think that news outlets should, instead of speculating to feed their own 24 hour news cycle, simply stick to saying the things that are true.

  17. @omni https://www.dropbox.com/s/xgvvmrl804hjb3f/Screenshot%20from%202012-12-17%2013%3A56%3A56.png I've got Ubuntu set up to use 4.3 GB of space on my flash drive for persistence, but I can't access that space. It seems to work in that it keeps my settings, documents, and installed programs between sessions. But is it normal not to be able to access that file system? My laptop took a dive while LiLi was formatting that space which caused the laptop to close and enter sleep mid formatting. When I opened it back up and clicked past the user login screen it looked like it kind of skipped the formatting to me and went on to the next phase, so I'm obviously wary.

  18. @omni When does Switzerland ever actually *use* its military?

    Monday, 17-Dec-12 16:24:32 UTC from web in context
  19. @omni In this hypothetical alternate reality where you've had the training, you'd probably trust yourself with one, having had instructions on their safe storage and operation.

  20. @omni It's part of their compulsory military service, which getting out of is (by design) very difficult

  21. @widget @omni @toksyuryel Whoops I didn't mean Sweden, I meant Switzerland. Why do I always mix those places up.

  23. @omni Citizens are required to own at least one gun and receive mandatory training. Gun crime is almost non-existent.

  24. @omni Except police and military, obviously.

  27. @omni Give everyone a gun or burn every gun in the country. There is no gray area.

  28. @omni I'm still confused but glad for you! Have to go now!

    Monday, 17-Dec-12 16:07:58 UTC from web in context
  29. @omni We need either no gun control or all gun control.
