Comment After DECADES of following Slashdot NO MORE (Score -1) 254

Everytime I visit Slashdot I know I am making them a tiny bit of money.. normally I will do it a few times a week.. but I am voting with my presence and I will no longer come to this site because of their Political CRAP.. they want to double down on doubling down on a loser mentality that does not serve the public good... sure they have the right to.. but this site has just become another outlet for leftist crap to propagate the internet.. lies .. bullshit.. nothing that actually helps us form a better society.. that is their choice... this is my goodbye...

Comment Equifax Doesnt Know If Data Is Encrypt Dont Matter (Score 1) 104

if you have access to the server you have all the tools and information to decrypt the data so it doesn't matter if the data is encrypted or not.. they could export it decrypted from the server in plain text.. or they could copy it and decrypt it on their end once they have it.

anyone that uses cloud services or online storage for their personal documents is an idiot. and don't forget they can crack your encryption if you upload zip or other files that are encrypted. only use these services for cat pics or something of the like

Comment Re:MS is probably trying to do as Stallman says (Score 0) 269

this is because people that use linux use it for primary reasons they do not use it as a normal environment for day to day work.. this will never change.. its a good server.. its a crappy desktop.. in the 20+ years it has been around there have been millions of people saying what I am saying so it must be true.. GIMP IS NOT PHOTOSHOP.. and that is what Linux Desktop is.. .. Great Server.. CRAPPY DESKTOP

Comment MicrosoftLinux what does it even matter (Score 0) 269

I started using linux back when slackware was first introduced.. if you don't know when that was then go look it up... It was a long long long time ago.. since then I have used a half a dozen flavors of linux and I have used FreeBSD.. I have used SCO .. I have used Netware.. I started using DOS when it was first launched and I remember the amazing 2x Upgrade.. then the 4x upgrade.. Windows 1x .. 3x ..Windows for Workgroups.. NT 3.5 .. NT4 .. I have attended Linux user group meetings since the beginning.. I used an Apple computer not a Mac.. I remember the Mac Plus when it was first introduced and the CX and the first Color Macs.. .. I worked on the Linux Document Project .. Wrote How Tos.. Compiled a full Help File version of the entire Linux Document Project... Over the years I have been friends with half a dozen of the Kernel Developers.. I've gone to their homes and ate meals with them.. I have forgot more about linux, BSD, Apple OS and Windows then most people will ever learn.... AND WHAT THE FUCK DOES ANY OF THIS MATTER?... this and nothing more.. ............ Linux has had 2 decades to build a desktop environment where moderately skilled people can use it for daily tasks of all varieties ... where there are tools exactly comparable or even better in some cases than available on any other platform.. They have excelled in Server Environments when it comes to ease of deployment and availability of tools but in over 20 years they can't come up with a team of developers to make desktop systems available for everyone.. now sure I expect 90% of Linux users to say HEY I CAN DO ANYTHING ON LINUX THAT I CAN ON WINDOWS.. sure you can do the same on either system because YOU CAN'T DO SHIT... I can build Frontends for Databases with VisualBasic in half a day that can be deployed to the Enterprise across a local network or even the world overnight automatically and when the customers come in the next day they click an Icon and they have full access to all of the corporate ordering systems in a secure manner. .. you can't do that on Linux.. ITS LIKE COMPARING GIMP TO PHOTOSHOP.. OR LIBRECAD VS AUTOCAD... NO.. JUST FRICKEN NO... so none of us are stupid.. we all know that I am speaking the truth... 20 fricken years... TWENTY FRICKEN YEARS.... TWENTY... the tools are just not there.. the interest to make it happen is not there.. so lets just call it server software and stop screwing around.. in 20 more years Linux Desktop might approach what Windows or Apple was in 1999.. but it will never catch up.. there will never be the development tools.. and there won't be apps built for it.. At this point ANDROID is looking better than Linux... and thats pitiful

Comment Google Adsense Targeting Racist Shit (Score -1) 139

in the past couple years Google through YouTube has been demonetizing general conservative video makers. Not NeoNazis Not KKK just regular conservatives that say things like we need to get rid of ObamaCare and Secure Our Borders. They take away their revenue on that platform basically saying their speech is not appropriate for all audiences. But if you look through youtube you can see some amazingly disgusting crap that no one could deny is not fit for everyone but it is still flooded with ads... the problem is .. what can you do? nothing because these companies... Twitter Facebook Google are in control of the internet and what kind of crap goes in your head.

Comment Autistic British Hacker? (Score 1) 254

today diagnosis of many of these disorders is almost a crime in of its self. If there is reasonable evidence that he was involved then he should stand trial in the USA just as if an American was hacking UK computers. This is really a non event except for the fact he is saying he is Autistic and shouldn't be held accountable. American courts will take that into consideration too.

Comment Re:Ummm.... (Score 1) 465

why don't you list all the options the bring NoScript to other browsers then because NoScript doesn't just stop foreign script it stops sites other than the one you are browsing to track you.... Google will never implement this nor microsoft and if you can't go with a resource like FireFox that has a large base then you end up with some shit browser that never has any security testing.. I don't just find it offensive i find it indefensible that there is no option for NoScript on other browsers or that Firefox will do away with it.
