Quote: VSI also reconfirmed plans to offer OpenVMS on x86-based servers.
That's to what I'm looking forward. 
I've had my Integrity server for only a few months now and it is running: HP OpenVMS Industry Standard 64 Operating System, Version V8.4
My AlphaServers and MicroVAX are running a couple flavors of OpenVMS 7.

A 1917 astronomical glass plate from the Cargenie Observatory’s collection is offering the oldest evidence for a planet orbiting another star—besting the first confirmed exoplanet detection by more than 70 years. If you create evidence for an exoplanet, but didn't know it, does it still make a sound?

Abnormalities such as red shift and absorption lines were caused when man sinned, creation fallen and the angel of light was confined to earth. Thus the light speed slowed down cause huge dispersin and red shift. Various absorption lines are the holes in light due to sins.

The headline is overstating things a bit. This is evidence for a former exoplanet; the 'pollution' of white dwarfs the article is talking about is caused by planetary type debris falling on the surface of a WD.

Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

We’ve come across a way to run entire Linux graphical applications in Windows 10 by launching them through Bash. They do know there's an easier way to run Linux GUI apps, right? (hint: it's the Year of it)

In the braindamaged naming/functional conventions of X Windows, an XServer is the user facing part of a *nix GUI not the backend. At work I use a different Xserver application[^] to remote into the Alphabox managing an embedded system that runs a rack of *mumble*mumble*.

Take JavaScript, the messy-yet-buggy drivers library, and the fact is rather a toy than a reliable we bserver off from NodeJS, and probably you'll get a decent app...

Excellent, I'm going to make a new browser that supports an entirely unique sub/superset of HTML/CSS/JS just to make that easier
