Comment Re:How long will IPv6 last? (Score 1) 406

Nobody wants to expose all their internal addresses. Period. Which part of that can you dumb fucks not understand? No organisation is going to want to implement that.

Exposing your internal addresses should be irrelevant to security unless you're doing something else wrong. Those of us that understand that are OK with our internal addresses being exposed and want them to be. A lot of organizations already do implement that even with IPv4. Which part of that do you dumb fucks not understand?

Except a brief run of ha-ha before the mail spools get moved off to their own partition which is mounted no-exec.

Well I hope they aren't laughing too hard. They forgot /tmp, /var/tmp, /var/run/exim4, /var/log/exim4... and anywhere else the exim user can write to. And of course, none of that wouldn't actually prevent exploitation anyway since they are already able to execute arbitrary commands as root without creating any executable files with 'exim -C' as the exim user and ${run ...}.

Droid, autonomous device that empowers the user through its open architecture.

Can you tell me when they're going to follow through and actually deliver this "empowers the user" and "open architecture" stuff people keep talking about? I have a droid 2. It came with some "CityID" nagware that asks me if I want to continue using the trial version every time I hang up a phone call. It also came with Quickoffice (some office suite, I guess) which a couple weeks ago sent me some notification saying the "professional version" or whatever was on sale that day. I'd like to get rid of all these worthless apps but the phone won't let me uninstall them - the option is greyed out. I'm not feeling very empowered.
