Yeah, I think they need to answer some basic questions first, like what do they see people using these phones for? If its goal is just to be able to play youtube, spotfy, etc, then whats the real point? Those are free either. Their approach with free operating systems made more sense, by focusing on free applications to replace the proprietary unix ones and someone came along and gave them a great kernel. Thats a thousand times more difficult now with phones. but ultimately phones or computers are a means to an end for most people. What is the end here?

They guy is a racist tool that is responsible for this anti pattern as much as anyone.

Its trying to implement secure storage of passwords, but in an obnoxious way. I don't want to store my passwords in kdewallet. but by default it wants to. You can disable that somehow, but the next time you update your pc it will forget it and you'll have to do it again. Worse of all, depending on your set up it can lock you out of your pc and domain controller if you don't disable it.

Sorry posted the answer in my comment, but you have to make an easy way for developers who don't care about selinux to do the easiest thing possible to support it. Only once devs care about it will it be possible to use by most end users who care about security and don't have endless free time to reconfigure their security posture at each update.

Because it was designed by NSA for use by people of similar intelligence, rather than Joe ubuntu user. That makes it awesomely powerful and kind of a pain for someone without the time and resources to properly configure it. Its been a while but I had it super locked down then I really really needed a stupid utility that was only available for snap and tried to lock it down. That was a huge pain in the ass, I did it and thought myself very smart, then an update came in and... whoosh I had another round of absolute bullshit to deal with because some devs can't freaking stick to a pattern. I saw what caused the reconfigure and just opted instead for a dedicated ubuntu pc that would deal with that bullshit on a pc I didn't give a crap about and had nothing of value in it.

So in summary Selinux is great, but not enough people care about it to keep everything working well with it. No nice utilities have been written to help app developers understand the impact of their changes.

The number of people using it as an excuse is very high on social media, but in real day to day life its much lower.

The cheese sandwich was the best part of Frye. I've literally had that same sandwich many times, and while it looks sad and basic, if you are in a position where someone is giving that to you where you didn't specifically order it, let me tell you its special and it hits like nothing else on this earth.

Is there another reason why only the poor, non white communities are not being covered by the seawall? is it just a coincidence that the rich white people are being protected?

Responsible governmental spending would be better directed at buying out the houses in flood prone areas and building more in safer locations. Thats what works well in the midwest with flood prone rivers, that had dump developers build next to. This is on a whole different scale though... At least Miami is more just, the areas near the ocean are the expensive ones, and those higher up and farther away were historically poorer areas.

Just why though? What does mars have that earth doesn't?

I think to give an American centric pioneer perspective, Most people who say they want to go tot he moon are thinking like late 18th century Denver/Kansas city. Small towns, rustic living, most basic necessities available. They aren't thinking early 18th, where the native people of the land were rather upset at having their land stolen and were fighting back, and no train access to the more civilized east. You want something from New York/ Boston, you get your wagon together and walk.

I mean, in a more perfect world it would be a *simulated* death. I'm not certain they won't need to simulate anything.

It gives me no joy, but given the budget cuts and the stupidity at the top of the chain people will die in really dumb preventable ways. Not complex challenger style ones either, This is going to be painful and sad for all interested in the peaceful development of space travel.

invent a perfect device, then yeah it makes sense. The devices are not currently perfect and may take a couple decades to approach what you are imagining.

If you like nothing, there is nothing wrong with that. All that I can say in favor of nothing is that it adds nothing to its products, but on the other hand, it doesn't add anything to the products. So if the product nothing is marketing was good before they don't touch it, then great. But if the product was crap before, it will be released as crap. They're mostly a transparent branding company that just adds nothing branding and does the regulatory bits to get it importable.

Thats a really ass backwards way of putting it. They regulations were so bad, they instead broke regulations so they didn't have to follow the other regulations. thats gobbledy gook for they did the cheapest thing possible knowing it was shit and not safe because they were self regulated.
