It's likely par for the course to have lists of potential adversaries maintained in the event of a national emergency : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rex_84

Since switching to Debian almost exclusively I've found terminator to be the closest approximation to iTerm. That said, there are times I still miss iTerm but the decent split window support made it a decent transition.

The grandparent is pointing out the hypocrisy.

It's too late. The Obama administration has proposed a one trillion dollar budget to modernize the nuclear arsenal. The inclusion of low-yield nuclear devices is considered especially unnerving as it is believed their use would be easier to justify and could lean to a full nuclear exchange. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/01/12/science/as-us-modernize...

I'm not sure crippled is the right word. I think limited might be a better choice. Redhat seems paranoid about patents and lacked the particular curve necessary to build bitcoin / ethereum without first building openssl.

I'm actually mildly surprised there's not an unofficial "spin" that addresses these IP-related limitations the way various distros like Mint address various Ubuntu pain points.

I switched to Fedora after aging out some old Mac hardware only Ubuntu seemed to support. My primary motivator was the appearance of Amazon on my Unity desktop and Canonical's increasing desire to go it's own way with technologies like Mir.

I've been very happy with Fedora and Gnome 3 since the latter hit 3.12 or so. There are still some edge cases like the ability to snap windows to corners that I really think should be addressed but otherwise I'm a happy camper.
