I have a hard time attacking the immigrants when they had to defend themselves from an Arab invasion literally THE DAY the Mandate expired. Nobody will accuse the Middle East of being tactful.

Since then, actions on both sides have been more and more regrettable.

Oh. Missed the subject line that you didn't duplicate anywhere in the post. I don't change the subject 99% of the time on my posts so it's a blind spot.

I'm not going to deny that assembly CAN be faster, but my bullshit detector goes off whenever I hear somebody advocating using hand-tuned assembly as a general practice.

Have you heard of MenuetOS? I suppose the argument could be made that after 14 years, they have a leg up on HURD and ReactOS.

You could have replaced that entire comment with a single sentence just telling me your username. If I wanted to turn my brain to mush reading pages and pages and pages of fiddly assembly bits, I'd just read the link.

Only a certain strata, I think. There are a lot of trolls who are welcome to stay here.

Which one of the posters in that link are we supposed to assume is you? I didn't see any APK's.

Hindsight is 20-20.

It's funny how every time we see an article like this, it eventually comes out in the comments that, as per standard Slashdot fare, the summary was a lie and you have to give the infection several permissions to get it to work. That's been the conclusion of literally every Linux infection article I've seen here for years (although admittedly I don't read every day), with the exception of Heartbleed I suppose.

Pseudo.

Not to be confused with sudo

You think that's bad, look at the Pipedot comment counts.

Soylent has its own problems, to be sure. Some of us just think that said different problems are not as bad as Slashdot's.

And, y'know, Soylent isn't owned by a media company trying to convert the site to cash.

On the other hand, having a monarch that in theory has the ability to veto any bill Parliament passes, but said privilege is in a Schroedinger state because they haven't exercised it since 1708 strikes me as a bit weird.

Is the U.K. a monarchy or a republic? Seems debatable.

(assuming since you said "bloody" you're from the UK)

"One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter."

So you admit we have some.

Hence why I said "more or less declare war." They wanted to save face internationally while still maximizing their element of surprise, so they had to warn the U.S. without warning them.

Are you saying they further declared war "for real this time" later?

Not if they find it to be manslaughter, no, not really.
