Video: Mich. police shoot deer in headlights
An officer shot the deer at point blank range after concluding that the still animal must have been injured
By Andrea Isom

Michigan — Michigan State Police tells Fox 2 they are aware of a video circulating the Internet, which shows a trooper shooting an injured deer in the head at point blank range.
The shooting happened after several attempts to get the deer to move out of the way. The video shows troopers flashing their lights at the deer and driving the police cruiser at a slow speed towards the animal. This went on for several minutes.
MSP spokesperson Lt. Mike Shaw tells Fox 2 the deer was injured and could have darted out into the roadway and caused a traffic accident.
MSP is investigating where the incident happened and which troopers are involved. Shaw says at this point in the investigation the troopers do not appear to have done anything unlawful.

Is it possible to view an GPS-tagged Photo on an Offline Map without internet connection?
Jun 1, 2013
I use Pictomio with the Plugin PictoGeo to GeoTag my photos. The only problem that I have is that I can't see the geo-position on a Map without Internet connection.
Is the any solution to view the geo-position on a Map without Internet connection?
e. g. another Software (freeware would be nice)?
Mac or PC. It doesn't matter. I own both.
Thank you for your help.

Julie Krone, whose 1993 Belmont Stakes (gr. I) win on Colonial Affair broke the Triple Crown gender barrier, came out of retirement long enough to become the first female rider to win The Blood-Horse Sportsman's Challenge. On May 20, as part of the High Hope Steeplechase program, she booted home Glennwood Farm's Seignorial by a wide margin."Everything is relative for time and place," Krone said when asked to compare her Belmont and Sportsman's Challenge victories. Krone, the all-time leading female jockey by wins with 3,545, retired April 18, 1999, and was elected to the Hall of Fame last year.The Sportsman's Challenge raises money for the Kentucky Horse Park Foundation and Central Kentucky Riding for the Handicapped. Attendance was estimated at 10,000, and event officials expect the money raised to be higher than last year's $70,000.Krone followed in the footsteps of her teenage idol, retired jockey Steve Cauthen, who rode in the Challenge last year so his daughters could see their father ride in a race. This time, Krone's father, Don, traveled from Michigan to watch his daughter ride.Krone's marriage to Daily Racing Form columnist Jay Hovdey is scheduled for next Saturday.

Fatal crash closes 2 westbound lanes on 91 freeway in Anaheim
ANAHEIM HILLS – A motorcyclist died after a crash on the 91 freeway east of the Imperial Highway off-ramp Wednesday morning.
The two right lanes of the westbound freeway were closed for several hours after the crash involving a motorcycle, a semi truck and a Toyota Camry, said Officer Todd Kovaletz of the California Highway Patrol.
Around 10:20 a.m., a motorcyclist was splitting the left and middle lane of the freeway at about 75 mph while surrounding traffic was moving around 35 miles per hour, Kovaletz said. As the driver of a Toyota Camry changed from the left into the middle lane, the motorcyclist hit the back of the vehicle. He was thrown from the bike and landed between the rear axles of a semi truck in the right lane, Kovaletz said.
The truck dragged him about 100 feet until other motorists were able to flag the driver down to stop, Kovaletz said. The motorcyclist, a 25-year-old Downey man, was pronounced dead at the scene, he said.
His identity has not been released, pending notification of family, Kovaletz said

Comment on "Super-Cute" Fangs Spread to 3D by Anonymous:
Me neither, the fake ones just look terrible. Plus, why go to such lengths? Besides, i have fangs, not out of alined canines, just oversized ones thanks to mother nature and i gotta tell you. They're horrible, aside form being able to tear into something tough easier, there just a hassle. Why would anyone 'pay for them.' Hell, give me the money and i'll give them mine. I hate these things.

I don't have any problem with crooked teeth, as long as they don't look like the ones on Shonen Knive's original bass player.

It's amazing how many ways greedy assholes can find ways for people to feel ashamed about their natural appearance. It's one thing to fix your teeth so you can chew properly, and another thing to do …

|Zeit (Largo in Four Movements)
Original 1972 LP album cover / 2002 CD album reissue
|Studio album by Tangerine Dream
|August 1972
|1972, Dierks Studio
|Ambient, space music, kosmische musik
|Tangerine Dream
|Tangerine Dream chronology
|Alternative cover
1986 reissue
|Professional ratings
|Review scores
Zeit (English: Time) is the third album by the German electronic music group Tangerine Dream.[3] A double LP, it was released in August 1972, being the first release featuring Peter Baumann, who joined then-current members Christopher Franke and Edgar Froese. Zeit is subtitled Largo in Four Movements.
The style of this album is slower and more atmospheric than their previous albums. Florian Fricke from the Munich-based group Popol Vuh, playing Moog synthesizer, and four cellists appear on the first track. The album cover depicts a solar eclipse.
As explained by Paul Russell for the 2002 reissue, "Zeit, which means 'time', was based on the philosophy that time was in fact motionless and only existed in our own minds."[4] And concluding, "Without doubt Zeit is a Krautrock master work still capable of surprises without having to shock. The album which took the band to the edge of international recognition, still sounds timeless 30 years on."[4]
Music critics often refer to Zeit as being one of the first (or perhaps the first) examples of dark ambient music.
Running times and releases[edit]
Before the 2002 reissue, there were two common releases on CD: a single CD release and a double CD set. The single CD release from Castle Music Ltd in 1999 has catalog number CMACD 555.
The double CD set from Relativity in 1987 has catalog number 88561-8070-2, and is longer by a few seconds, mainly because of longer inter-track gaps. Relativity also put out a single cassette, 88561-8070-4, with the following song timings: 20:00, 18:00, 20:12, 17:43.
The sound of the two releases is also strikingly different; the original Relativity release has a much brighter and more detailed sound. The Castle release was remastered from the original master tapes over a decade later and there seems to have been a deterioration in quality since then, as it exhibits a notably muddier and bottom-heavy sound. The double CD set has a light blue border on the front and back covers.[citation needed]
The 2011 release includes a second CD with the 25 November 1972 Klangwald concert at Cologne's WDR Sendesaal hall in West Germany, previously released as Tangerine Tree 52: Cologne 1972.
Zomba Music Publishers Limited had released five CD series, marked with numbers CTang 1 to 5, back in 1996. They all had the same front geometrical lines cover but with different colors. Zeit album had it in blue. Despite the sleeve notes and the CD contained the following song timings 20:00, 18:00, 20:12, 17:43, the real timings of Track 4 (Zeit) measured in any CD player had only 16:58 but the music starts with some extra 45 seconds of previously unheard music on all the other releases. If one may carefully mix-add these seconds to the beginning of the Zeit track from the any after-1996 releases, that would get about 17:30 full track. This also means, at a careful listening of the Zomba release, Track 4 ends earlier than any of the after-1996 releases.[citation needed]

Suntech and Zachry selected for first phase of 700 MW solar project03. February 2011 | Applications & Installations, Industry & Suppliers | By: Becky Stuart
Suntech Power Holdings Co., Ltd. and Zachry Holdings, Inc., have been selected by Sempra Generation to design and construct the 150 megawatt (MW) Mesquite Solar 1 project in Arizona, the U.S.
In total, the Mesquite Solar energy complex is set to reach 700 MW. Sunpower and Zachry are expected to begin work on its first 150 MW phase in mid-2011, with completion scheduled for 2013. The solar facility will reportedly create over 200 local jobs for construction and installation, and is projected to generate more than 350,000 megawatt-hours of electricity annually.
Engineering, procurement and construction provider Zachry will oversee the installation and integration of the project, while more than 800,000 Suntech multi-crystalline solar panels are expected to be used. The plant will be constructed about 30 miles west of Suntech's Goodyear manufacturing facility, which will supply a portion of the panels for the Sempra Generation project. In addition, the company's technical team will support the execution of the project.
The renewable electricity generated at Mesquite Solar 1 will be sold to Pacific Gas & Electric under a 150 MW (AC), 20-year power purchase agreement, pending California Public Utilities Commission approval.
Steve Dedman, senior vice president of Zachry Holdings, Inc. commented: "When completed this will be one of the largest solar plants in the world. Our participation in this very significant project signals Zachry's commitment to the solar market, and specifically utility-scale solar generation."
"Large, multi-phase solar projects like the 700 MW Mesquite Solar energy complex are at the heart of our renewable strategy," added Jeffrey W. Martin, president and chief executive officer of Sempra Generation. "That's why this first 150 MW phase is so important, and why we are pleased to partner with Suntech and Zachry as we begin developing this world-class solar complex."

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

This is a page turner that certainly kept me guessing, and the horrors of Christie's manipulation are related with an almost gleeful detail. The author's done her homework on what it takes to run a cupcake bakery, and there's an entertaining rivalry with another shop (complete with frosting splattering!) as well as cupcake recipes at the end. A very promising start to this mystery series; I look forward to reading the rest!
I think the only thing I would complain about, if I were to complain, is that not EVERY single cupcake they mentioned had a recipie listed for it at the end. Really wanted to make one of those coconut ones she mentioned, darn it!!
The setting for this cozy mystery is Old Town Scottsdale. McKinlay's description of the surrounding area is spot-on, so much so, that I can picture the bakery in my mind as I am reading the book. Her characters are so well-developed that I can almost picture Mel and Angie working away in their bakery, and sleuthing all over town for clues to who killed the bride-to-be.
While Angie's brothers are a bit over the top in their protection of their little sis, it's fun to watch this mystery unravel and finally figure out whodunnit!

Let's Jump To Conclusions About That Bellaire Cop
Bellaire police officer Jeff Cotton, who was indicted for shooting Robert Tolan, insists he's not someone who indulges in racial profiling.
Well, he doesn't insist. Nor does his attorney. Instead, a spokesman for his attorney insists, to the Houston Chronicle, that he's no profiler.
Just because he shot an unarmed black guy who was allegedly making a fuss in his own driveway does not mean Cotton is a racial profiler, If it had been the kind of soccer mom endemic to Bellaire putting up such a fuss after a pointless pull-over by a police cruiser, she'd have had two to the chest too. Her SUV, complete with rear-window decals honoring Tyler and Conor's Little League careers, would have been splattered with blood just as much as Tolan's.
So Cotton's not a profiler. But let's go ahead and judge him, based strictly on his mugshot.

First, obviously, is the lame mustache. Dude, you either grow a mustache or you don't. Otherwise, you look like the kind of hotheaded guy who's going to be getting in fights at the drop of a hat, mostly because of inferiority issues stemming from the inability to grow a mustache (See? It's easy to generalize!).
Then there's the neck. Did someone say steroids? Not us, to be sure. That would be a case of jumping to conclusions.
And then there's the hair. Whitewalls on the side, damn near a brushcut on top. This is the hairdo of someone who will walk into a tense situation and seek to defuse it through talking it out rather than just acting rashly.
We could be wrong about all this, of course. We're just going by how someone looks.

After purchasing, I am SO happy with this camera. If you're looking for an expensive camera to take WONDERFUL footage of your family's moments, this camera is for you. Ignore all the crap about "fuzzy footage," etc...I mean, what are you looking for? I can't honestly believe that people can tell the difference between this and a supposed high def camera. Your eyes only see what they see, and this camera gives you great picture (and sound.)
Even in low light...we used it Christmas Eve with nothing but the tree on...it gave us wonderful footage...not blurry.
Plus, it is super easy to use...
...and though I couldn't find any of the transfer info I wanted online, it couldn't be more easy. I hooked it up to my VCR with the included AV cables and transferred footage straight to VHS...and plan to do the same with a DVD burner. Very simple.
So, I am very happy with this camcorder.
Okay first there's the light which is little more than a hoax, but it does mean that it might need a light in lowlight conditions. It is very small, and light, flip the 3" LCD & the camera turns on and the lens opens immediately. The battery life is as good as any Sony camcorder and I have an older sony that I used for 2 years & never had to get another battery for it. Can count on at least an hours worth of juice, but you can power it with the ac adapter.
It has no built in memory so you need to buy an SD card, 16GB is good.
It does not have very good manual adjustments, just like all sony camcorders I suppose, but most of you will be using the iAuto anyways.
Some folks think standard definition is dead but it is still used a lot, including all DVD's are not HD.
It's affordable and well worth the money for a beginner, if you are a serious photographer with experience save your money and get something bigger.
- Battery life is about 1 hour with the standard battery.
- Works well in low light (for night time use, I would suggest a tripod).
- Rugged, it fell about 3 feet on to the sidewalk and continued to work fine.
If you're looking for a good, low-priced camera, I would definitely recommend this one.

Introducing: openSUSE heroes
During the last weeks, the openSUSE board and others expressed their concern about the current state of some openSUSE infrastructure: especially the reaction times to change something in the setup were mentioned multiple times. Looks like we lost some administrators and/or contact points at SUSE who helped out in the past to eliminate problems or work together with the community.
As result, there was a meeting held during the openSUSE Conference 2016, including some SUSE employees and openSUSE community members to discuss the current situation and search for some possible solutions. The discussion was very fruitful and we'd like to share some of the results here to inform everyone and actively ask for help. If you want to join us, the openSUSE heroes, do not hesitate to contact us and join an incredible team!

Open Source Docker Monitoring & Logging
Docker is growing by leaps and bounds, and along with it, its ecosystem. Being light, the predominant container deployment involves running just a single app or service inside each container. Most software products and services are made up of at least several such apps/services. We all want all our apps/services to be highly available and fault tolerant. Thus, Docker containers in an organization quickly start popping up like mushrooms after the rain. They multiply faster than rabbits.While, in the beginning, we play with them like cute little pets, as their numbers quickly grow we realize we are dealing with a herd of cattle, implying we've become cowboys. Managing a herd with your two hands, a horse, and a lasso will only get you so far. You won't be able to ride after each and every calf that wonders in the wrong direction. To get back to containers from this zoological analogy—operating so many moving pieces at scale is impossible without orchestration—this is why we've seen the rise of Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, Mesos, CoreOS, RancherOS, and so on.
DevOps: A Pillar of Modern IT Infrastructure
A massive transformation is underway in the way we manage IT infrastructure. More companies are looking for improved agility and flexibility. They are moving from traditional server stacks to cloudy infrastructure to support a new array of applications and services that must be delivered at breakneck pace in order to remain competitive.
The one big change in IT
Yet Bob does not believe the devops hammer should be used on anything that looks remotely like a nail. Accounting systems, supply chain management systems, warehouse management systems, and so on do not benefit from the constant modification enabled by devops. Those are bound by precise, interlocking processes along with granular permissions and regulations. Here, continuous change invites disaster of the type that ITIL-huggers and OCM (organizational change management) proponents fear most.

Collabora contributions to Linux Kernel 4.7
Linux Kernel 4.7 was released this week with a total of 36 contributions from five Collabora engineers. It includes the first contributions from Helen as Collaboran and the first ever contributions on the kernel from Robert Foss. Here are some of the highlights of the work Collabora have done on Linux Kernel 4.7.
Enric added support for the Analogix anx78xx DRM Bridge and fixed two SD Card related issues on OMAP igep00x0: fix remove/insert detection and enable support to read the write-protect pin.
Gustavo de-staged the sync_file framework (Android Sync framework) that will be used to add explicit fencing support to the graphics pipeline and started a work to clean up usage of legacy vblank helpers.
The new Linux Kernel 4.7 is now officially released
For users who are running some form of Linux, this should come as welcome news--the final version of the Linux Kernel 4.7 is now finally released. Linux founder Linus Torvalds said of the announcement, "Despite it being two weeks since rc7, the final patch wasn't all that big, and much of it is trivial one- and few-liners. There's a couple of network drivers that got a bit more loving."

FreeIPA Lightweight CA internals
In the preceding post, I explained the use cases for the FreeIPA lightweight sub-CAs feature, how to manage CAs and use them to issue certificates, and current limitations. In this post I detail some of the internals of how the feature works, including how signing keys are distributed to replicas, and how sub-CA certificate renewal works. I conclude with a brief retrospective on delivering the feature.
Lightweight Sub-CAs in FreeIPA 4.4
Last year FreeIPA 4.2 brought us some great new certificate management features, including custom certificate profiles and user certificates. The upcoming FreeIPA 4.4 release builds upon this groundwork and introduces lightweight sub-CAs, a feature that lets admins to mint new CAs under the main FreeIPA CA and allows certificates for different purposes to be issued in different certificate domains. In this post I will review the use cases and demonstrate the process of creating, managing and issuing certificates from sub-CAs. (A follow-up post will detail some of the mechanisms that operate behind the scenes to make the feature work.)
RcppArmadillo 0.7.200.2.0
The second Armadillo release of the 7.* series came out a few weeks ago: version 7.200.2. And RcppArmadillo version 0.7.200.2.0 is now on CRAN and uploaded to Debian. This followed the usual thorough reverse-dependecy checking of by now over 240 packages using it.
For once, I let it simmer a little preparing only a package update via the GitHub repo without preparing a CRAN upload to lower the update frequency a little. Seeing that Conrad has started to release 7.300.0 tarballs, the time for a (final) 7.200.2 upload was now right.
Just like the previous, it now requires a recent enough compiler. As g++ is so common, we explicitly test for version 4.6 or newer. So if you happen to be on an older RHEL or CentOS release, you may need to get yourself a more modern compiler. R on Windows is now at 4.9.3 which is decent (yet stable) choice; the 4.8 series of g++ will also do. For reference, the current LTS of Ubuntu is at 5.4.0, and we have g++ 6.1 available in Debian testing.

Debian LGBTIQA+
I have a long overdue blog entry about what happened in recent times. People that follow my tweets did catch some things. Most noteworthy there was the Trans*Inter*Congress in Munich at the start of May. It was an absolute blast. I met so many nice and great people, talked and experienced so many great things there that I'm still having a great motivational push from it every time I think back. It was also the time when I realized that I in fact do have body dysphoria even though I thought I'm fine with my body in general: Being tall is a huge issue for me. Realizing that I have a huge issue (yes, pun intended) with my length was quite relieving, even though it doesn't make it go away. It's something that makes passing and transitioning for me harder. I'm well aware that there are tall women, and that there are dedicated shops for lengthy women, but that's not the only thing that I have trouble with. What bothers me most is what people read into tall people: that they are always someone they can lean on for comfort, that tall people are always considered to be self confident and standing up for themselves (another pun, I know ... my bad).

Wal-Mart Proves Open Source Is Big Business
Keeping the FCC and Open Source Happy
The FCC is worried. You and they spend all this time and energy getting your radio certified, and then some bozo hacks in, changes how the radio works, and puts you out of spec.
And so, back in early 2015, the FCC issued some guidelines or questions regarding WiFi devices – particularly home routers – in an effort to ensure that your radio isn't hackable.
The result has been that some router makers have simply locked down the platform so that it's no longer possible to do after-market modifications, and this has caused an outcry by after-market modifiers. The reason why it's an issue is that these open-source developers have used the platform for adding apps or other software that, presumably, have nothing to do with the radio.
In an attempt to find the magic middle way, the prpl organization, headed by Imagination Technologies (IMG) and featuring the MIPS architecture, recently put out a proof of concept that they say gives both assurance to the FCC and freedom to open-source developers.

Wire open-sources messaging client, woos developers
Communications startup Wire has open-sourced the full codebase for its Wire app, so it's easier for developers to build their own encrypted messaging clients.
Wire open-sourced the rest of the client base that wasn't initially publicly available, including components related to the user interface, the web and native clients, and some internal developer tools. The company always planned to open-source the codebase, but didn't start out that way initially "because we were still working on other features," Alan Duric, co-founder and CTO of Wire, wrote in a Medium post.

Open data platform on Emilia-Romagna reconstruction
After the two earthquakes that caused multiple casualties and widespread damage in the Italian region of Emilia-Romagna in 2012, multiple programmes were launched to reconstruct the affected areas. To make these efforts more transparent, a team from the Gran Sasso Science Institute last week presented an Open Data platform that will provide all information on who is responsible, which company is doing what, and how the money is being spent.
The 'Open Data Ricostruzione' initiative was presented last week at the Italian Festival of Participation. The platform will bring together all the numbers, figures and information on the reconstruction, and allow visitors to visualise, filter, track and map the available data. All information will be made available as open data, in the original database format as well as JSON.

AArch64 desktop hardware?
Soon there will be four years since I started working on AArch64 architecture. Lot of software things changed during that time. Lot in a hardware too. But machines availability still sucks badly.
In 2012 all we had was software model. It was slow, terribly slow. Common joke was AArch64 developers standing in a queue for 10GHz x86-64 cpus. So I was generating working binaries by using cross compilation. But many distributions only do native builds. In models. Imagine Qt4 building for 3-4 days…
In 2013 I got access to first server hardware. With first silicon version of CPU. Highly unstable, we could use just one core etc. GCC was crashing like hell but we managed to get stable build results from it. Qt4 was building in few hours now.
RISC-V on an FPGA, pt. 1
Last year I had open source instruction set RISC-V running Linux emulated in qemu. However to really get into the architecture, and restore my very rusty FPGA skills, wouldn't it be fun to have RISC-V working in real hardware.
The world of RISC-V is pretty confusing for outsiders. There are a bunch of affiliated companies, researchers who are producing actual silicon (nothing you can buy of course), and the affiliated(?) lowRISC project which is trying to produce a fully open source chip. I'm starting with lowRISC since they have three iterations of a design that you can install on reasonably cheap FPGA development boards like the one above. (I'm going to try to install "Untether 0.2" which is the second iteration of their FPGA design.)

Point Linux 3.2Submitted by Roy Schestowitz on Tuesday 26th of July 2016 04:26:41 PM Filed under
Point Linux released their newest version, 3.2, in June 2016. Their goal is, "To combine the power of Debian GNU/Linux with the productivity of MATE, the GNOME 2 desktop environment fork. Point Linux provides an easy-to-set-up-and-use distribution for users looking for a fast, stable and predictable desktop."
Point Linux aims to use MATE as their primary desktop environment, but also offers Xfce as an option. The Point Linux website is simple and professional. The download page is full of fresh and very nice options that allow the user to download the exact distro they require to fit their needs. Some of the options include 32- or 64-bit, torrent or direct download, and the location of the download server. I found using the website was effortless and the options available cut down on the download time (by giving the option to torrent or the location of the server) and lowered the install time by giving the consumer options before retrieving the whole file.
The MATE desktop environment (DE) is available in the standard Debian installation media, but the full Debian installer image is 4.7GB, overwhelmingly large, and has too many DE options to make the disc any smaller. This is the small void that Point Linux fills. They provide the MATE desktop environment (or Xfce) and a significantly smaller live OS / installation media. Even when selecting the full featured desktop from the options on their website, the Point Linux installer is only 1.00GB. The "Desktop with core components" option lowers this installation media size further to 772MB.

What Happens to Mozilla and its Deal with Yahoo?
In late 2014, many observers were flummoxed to see that Yahoo and Mozilla had announced a "strategic five-year partnership" agreement which would make Yahoo the primary search option for Firefox. Mozilla was up for renewal negotiations for its deal with Google, which had historically subsidized more than 90 percent of Mozilla's revenues, to the tune of more than $300 million per year at times. In return, for lots of money, Google got primary search placement in the Firefox browser over the years.
Last week, though, Verizon,announced its intention to purchase Yahoo for $4.8 billion. What are the implications for Mozilla and its deal? Here are the details.

While what I was telling them may not have been entirely correct (SteamDB is confusing), the main point I made was correct. Normal keys are not able to access the beta yet, but beta/developer keys can, as it's not currently set for Linux/Mac as a platform for us.

7 Mages brings a touch more of traditional dungeon crawling to Linux
Controlling a party of adventurers, exploring dungeons and fighting weird magical creatures is an RPG tradition as old as the genre. Expect all that and more in this modern iteration of the classical dungeon crawler.

How To Build A Raspberry Pi Smartwatch — The Geekiest Watch Ever Made
In our Getting Started With Raspberry Pi series, we've introduced you to the basics of Pi, told you how to get everything you need, and help you boot a basic operating system. But, Raspberry Pi is much more than that. You can use it as a TOR proxy router, build your own PiPhone, and even install Windows 10 IoT. This little device comes with lots of flexibility, that allows it to be used in multiple applications. Well, did you ever think about wearing your Raspberry Pi? If your answer is NO, I won't be surprised. If you imagine a scenario where Raspberry Pi is used to build a smartwatch, it would look too bulky. Well, that's the thing about making geeky things that set you apart from the regular crowd, right?
Ubuntu Leftovers
I've been Linuxing since before you were born
Once upon a time, there was no Linux. No, really! It did not exist. It was not like today, with Linux everywhere. There were multiple flavors of Unix, there was Apple, and there was Microsoft Windows. When it comes to Windows, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Despite adding 20+ gigabytes of gosh-knows-what, Windows is mostly the same. (Except you can't drop to a DOS prompt to get actual work done.) Hey, who remembers Gorilla.bas, the exploding banana game that came in DOS? Fun times! The Internet never forgets, and you can play a Flash version on Kongregate.com. Apple changed, evolving from a friendly system that encouraged hacking to a sleek, sealed box that you are not supposed to open, and that dictates what hardware interfaces you are allowed to use. 1998: no more floppy disk. 2012: no more optical drive. The 12-inch MacBook has only a single USB Type-C port that supplies power, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, external storage, video output, and accessories. If you want to plug in more than one thing at a time and don't want to tote a herd of dongles and adapters around with you, too bad. Next up: The headphone jack. Yes, the one remaining non-proprietary standard hardware port in Apple-land is doomed.
