Re: Re: Torvalds just ported from source code made by real progr
History: MS-DOS exists due to fact Digital Research CP/M creator would not bend to Microsoft. IBM PC-DOS BIOS was recreated so the compatible market sell boxes with non-IBM BIOS with MS-DOS and pass compatibility.
CP/M is a better small model operating system than MS-DOS but M$ killed it. There is much more insanity around PC computer than I care say.
Unix: Mac OS 9 was Apple's look and feel of Xerox Alto. AT&T Unix based code could run, I have never installed it. Mac osx is based on BSD/Darwin open source code - and much friction on the lack of giveback.
Currently: iOS is slowly making osx evolve macOS. MacOS 10 is intel and new macOS 11 is for apple ARM Macs (run iOS apps in future).
The war on general purpose computers is in scorched earth mode. The work by Torvalds is going to be last Unix-like OS standing.
For "Reasons" I'll assume this lack of "company name" is just troll protection.
Question: Since TANSTAFL and the "Digital Divide" is the result of too few customers to justify an investment by, so called Big Cable, is there no incentive to license the reserved spectrum to WISP providers?
(telecoms sure as hell would be against that because they want it all <-- my take on it)
Since we are in this situation where public education is all of a sudden REMOTE CONNECTION REQUIRED (yes, caps on) is the shift in funds to the underserved from local school districts to customers of WISP who cannot afford even the best deal the provider can offer to stay in business?
Tricky, but the giant Department of Education hammer seems only interested in social programs - states get federal money for more than just lesson plans; physical infrastructure is excluded? Maybe I'm just channeling the $200,000,000 state bond question for education that had no words about remote connection for students.
Too clarify: School house is over there, student is at home, WISP is doing it's best to serve but cannot cover all cases from a financial position; voucher system for connecting students maybe (state level $ to provider).
If this ramble is missing the point, it is at best a "Digital Divide" question. (note: the term "Digital Divide" is a political phrase that is catchy but is stupid -- means whatever you want it to mean)
Cool. A win. What about allow seeing the data but not have the tools to repair?
Wife's 2020 Subaru is a nightmare of nanny warnings and sensors. The user level manual is 2" thick. So, what is the data on what needs fixed is tied to locked down tech notes that only dealer has. Plus the software to calibrate is locked in trade secrets or other means? I this car as tied to the dealer forever because too much tech is in it. It has crazy update schedule that must be applied - or else I think.
This win is by voters is only a drop in the bucket.
I went to grade school before LBJ's gift to his intellectual supporters. The Pledge of Allegiance started every day. I don't recall when that stopped but it did. Reckon fealty hurt someones feelings.

To bad the backlash to this uneducated citizenry is having a president that excels at flimflam marketing AKA snake oil merchant.
My solution is kill off Department of Education as a failed experiment and allow states to middle finger batshit federal involvement.
I am not sure why every thing must be app driven - marketing of course. I'm not even going to care about sex toys, party on.

So, it takes a cop sting operation being exposed by a guy holding a sign "Police Ahead" to make all safe driving signs okay except this one.
