Speaking of the lame stream media, this one might tickle a funny bone (since folks are decrying the lack of recent entertainment :-} ) - here's the lame stream media attacking Breitbart.com and Steve Bannon for being racist, sexist and a certified anti-semite. Doesn't get much better... enjoy :) The real Steve Bannon Donald Trump’s newly appointed White House Chief Strategist http://theduran.com/real-steve-bannon-liberal-left-not-want-see-video/ And another hint of the same: http://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2016/11/15/npr-puts-trigger-warning…

If the system were being properly "implemented" by the media, rather than "played, by the lame stream media", then the entire public discussion would include much discussion of the electoral college possibilities, Bernie Sanders would never have supported Hillary due to her horrendous history, and we would see an entirely more educated public discourse. Since the media (and thus the population) are dummed right down, only a simplistic two person, winner takes all race is presented to the people. In the face of how the public discourse has been played for so many years, I am confident that the system (entrenched parliamentarians/ electoral college voters) doing an about face and going "ok, despite our endless public discussion on 'winner takes all' and our commitment to that principle and our nominated winner (Trump in this particular instance) to take all our college votes, we're no going to turn around and screw your vote, since we don't agree with it", then there's a decent chance people will get truly fed up, and devolve the streets into something resembling national, persistent and game changing strife. In short, "the public discourse" as the lame stream media has played it, implies, in the minds of American voters, a contract with those voters. Breaking that contract at a key point in time will likely give rise to serious consequences. Z ----- End forwarded message -----

FreeBSD Status Report
by grarpamp 15 Nov '16

https://www.freebsd.org/news/status/report-2016-07-2016-09.html As focused as we are on the present and what is happening now, it is sometimes useful to take a fresh look at where we have come from, and where we are going. This quarter, we had our newest doc committer working to trace through the tangled history of many utilities, and we also get a glimpse looking forward at what may come in FreeBSD 12. Though 11.0-RELEASE was not finalized until after the period covered in this report, we can still have some anticipatory excitement for the features that will be coming in 12.0. The possibilities are tantalizing: a base system with no GPL components, arm64 as a Tier-1 architecture, capsicum protection for common utilities, and the CloudABI for custom software are just a few. The work of the present is no less exciting, with 11.0 making its way out just after the end of Q3, the new core coming into its own, and much more that you'll have to read and find out.

There are improvements in IPv6 transports, SSU peer testing, and hidden mode. We updated a number of plugins during I2P Summer and your router will automatically update them after restart.
