Facebook does exactly what they should. They won't delete a damned thing based on your word. Serve them a court order and you'll get a lot further.

Am I prohibited from walking up that ramp, or pushing the automatic door button, or using the bigger "handicapped" bathroom stall? Nope. I am legally prohibited from parking in the marked handicap parking spaces, without a permit.

Those "amenities" weren't installed for that sole employee. They were done to meet federal law. ("ADA")

They're on the path to being sued anyway. Where's the $20k option for males? Sperm collection costs about $2... for the specimen cup.

(Note: this has come up many times before, and is why men get the same "maternity" leave options as women just about everywhere.)

AIDS and hep transmission to health workers is non-zero in the US. And it's caused by careless handing of infectious material (i.e. needles 99% of the time.) Yes, ebola is far easier to contract, but its transmission is, likewise, entirely a case of carelessness.

You either have all of the necessary protective gear, and use it every time , or you might as well be naked, licking every surface. Ebola is not something to joke around with; take it seriously or it will very likely kill you.

If you suspect you have Ebola, you don't call a cab to take you to the emergency room, where you sit in the waiting room exposing hundreds of people for hours. Call your local health department, or the CDC, and lock yourself inside your already contaminated to hell house/apartment/condo/cardboard box/whatever. You stay the f*** away from other people.

While that may *currently* be the largest common plug found in a US household, the feed from the grid will most likely be 150A or 200A. In my house, there's a 30A "dryer" plug, but also a 60A hardwired line to the kitchen -- an electric stove and/or oven really eats power. (water heater is gas, and also heats the house, or there'd be more high amp drops.)

If it's a fusion device that isn't producing radiation, its mass should not be changing. (or more precisely, the mass will change proportional to the energy being created. i.e. microscopic.)

Nope. The firewall in that PoS "router" would still have to track all those thousands of connections, which is entirely the issue.

This is complete BS. Sure, if you want to take a $19 Tiger Direct OEM surplus belkin right out of the box, plug it in and walk away, yes, it will suck. (pretty much for any use) But 5 minutes with the setup wizard -- after all, someone has to setup the wifi -- and all that is fixable. Anyone even hinting at needing "industrial" hardware (aka. "enterprise", aka. damned expensive) to host a public hotspot doesn't know jack about running a hotspot -- or is a Cisco/Juniper/etc. vendor. There are hundreds of thousands of shops all over the planet using netgear, linksys, belkin, buffaloe, etc. consumer "crap" for their guest wifi networks; and they work perfectly fine... until a torrenting asshole hops on the network, which is what this guy is trying to fix.

With HIV, a person can be asymptomatic for nearly a decade while spreading the virus. While ebola is assumed to be spread only by contact with infected body fluids from a symptomatic patient, with an incubation period of about 2 weeks.

How long after he left the apartment did the deputy enter? What did he touch, inhale, or eat while in there? Did he have any contact with the patient prior to that?

Right, the "journal"... a f'ing binary log version of syslog. The issue isn't one of enabled or not, but that the systemd init system (and journald is part of it) CONTANS A FUCKING WEB SERVER! What better evidence of bloat do you need?

And why did RedHat "choose" systemd? Because they had very little choice... udev has been eaten by it, and GNOME requires it. Why is everyone else joining them? Because RH is so huge, everyone is now tooling their init support for systemd and dropping the old sysvinit shell scripts, so you become one with this crap or build your own little universe where you have to maintain init scripts for *EVERYTHING* and a mountain of growing systemd removal patches.

(And then in a few years LP will grow bored of systemd and find something else to ruin, leaving yet another steaming pile for others to clean up, rewrite, or hopefully just f'ing abandon.)

Unfortunately, yes they do. Unless you want to switch to BSD, or roll your own distribution -- which now involves resurrecting old init shell scripts, or writing new one, and maintaining them going forward -- you are very likely to be forced to use systemd by the distro or 3rd party apps that deeply integrate systemd.

Ah, but he won't use the word "we". He is incapable of admitting he's one of "those assholes". (if you took a vote, he'd be in the top 10.)

It isn't a matter of "subshell" -- which gets a copy of the parent process's memory from fork() -- but how functions are exported for use by future shells. For example, your shell (bash) runs less or vi (or python or php...), and from there a shell is started. That's not a subshell, it's a new process; it wasn't created by fork() so it doesn't have a copy of the original bash memory. The logical question is why anyone would need that functionality? In general, no one does, but it does offer some optimization for complex shell environments (read: the idiotic bash_completion BS. That's why bash takes an eon and a half to load.) Yes, my first response was "turn that crap off; nobody uses it anyway."

The "namespace" patch does absolutely NOTHING to address this bug, or security in general. So I now have to name my variable BASH_FUNC_foo() (or some variant.) If inputs aren't validated, the system is still vulnerable.

And everything beyond 2003 has been a bloated pig.

and my definition of not bloated... NT 4.0 Server. Runs perfectly on my (now beyond ancient) dual pentium 200, with 64M (yes, MEG) RAM. Completely booted in under a minute, and there's dozens of services it runs. Through a few tricks, it can be run without a GUI at all. (or "did" as it hasn't been used in a decade.)
