Comment Re:Jaywalking ? (Score 1) 154

Jaywalking in Germany is only illegal if you do it in reasonable proximity (don't know if there's an exact number) of a pedestrian crossing.

Then again, many Germans will not cross a red light even when the roads are completely empty and it's like 3am. Always makes me chuckle and cringe at the same time.

With 50000 entries in your hosts file (why do people keep capitalizing it BTW?) your stub resolver must perform like shit. You're essentially slowing down everything that requires DNS, which these days is practically anything.

You may want to consider dropping the fugly hack that is hosts file based "blocking" and go for a more sensible approach. Just food for thought.

Besides, in what way does SysInternals go against the Linux way of doing things?

You seem to have gone on autopilot there. I haven't said it's against any way of doing anything. I merely find the idea of porting that amusing (have you even considered how portable sysinternals is going to be given what it does?) and pointless.

Similarly, I install PowerShell when I make a Linux system.

Wow
