You'd rather vote a pipedream than democrat? Cheesus...

I'm a register libertarian but I'm not naÃve. There's no chance that Donnie isn't going to be the only viable R candidate. I'm voting a straight D until we've course corrected. Democracy is under fire, personal freedoms are being trampled, legal citizenship is being questioned; how can any libertarian do anything but vote D now?

But gorging on hamberders and fried allthethings is probably fine...

It's a dumb discussion. Much of what we eat isn't great for us. Meat alternatives aren't people health food, they're planet health food. Nobody is claiming anything else but loafs of people feel the need to dispute the non existent argument anyway. These people are arguing with the wind and we should really point that out.

I know I'm in the paranoid minority but I've disabled Bluetooth on every device I own, for years. I'll keep my wired headsets and wired speakers and continue along happily without worrying that every device I own is planning on leaking my personal info.

I'm in the market a d since are so ridiculously large now anyway, I was waiting to see the note 10. No headphone jack. I'm not trading in my assortment of quality headsets for Bluetooth and I'm not interested in buying dongles in bulk.

My stocks are tumbling, how are yours? We keep burning allies. We're partnering with communists. We've turned away from science (like climate change and vaccinations... until we didn't?). School shootings are going up even more. Domestic violence rates are increasing. Literal Nazis march though the streets without fear of repercussion. Multiple states are banning abortion at the expense of women's lives. I could go on and on and on but you can (probably) read too and I'm not your mom or elementary school teacher. We are worse off, as a species, than we were and as a country that has acted as a world leader for generations, we're failing everyone. These little blips in growth won't matter when everything collapses and burns to the ground.

But you're probably just a troll anyway.

He's still orange. He's still an idiot. He's still making the world a worse place.

The high speed rail project is and always was a sham. I was against it when I was still a CA resident and having been laughing about it since I left. It had no chance of succeeding or being useful.

These two things live just fine in isolation. If you can't meet your commitments, then taking back the funds is reasonable. Trump still sucks. Unrelated.

It's not about users, it's about defending against a breach. We transparently proxy all traffic, drop anything that isn't HTTP/HTTPS and only relay requests that match a whitelisted (sub)domain. Since we have so little egress traffic, i take a single system to do this and we keep a hot standby for failover. Relying on DNS doesn't offer you any protection here.

What about limiting egress traffic from high security networks that have nothing to do with traffic from people? Perhaps you don't know all the use cases for things.

I actually built a MITM appliance to do name based whitelists. You have a better approach? Not doing whitelists isn't an option for what we're doing.

Seems realistic to me. Assuming "desktop software" are things like Word and Photoshop and etc, I haven't used much in the way of "desktop software" for most of the last two decades. I need a terminal and a browser and I'm golden. Sure, I use a lot of dev tools and software from the terminal but almost nothing else that belongs in the desktop category (current job uses zoom, which I find unimpressive). As a Linux desktop and laptop user since the 90s, this seems completely normal to me. I've considered a Chromebook for some personal stuff because they're dirt cheap and have the two things I really need. Dumb terminals are smart again.

I miss being able to hold a phone in one hand and type. I have nexus 4 that I keep updated still. It's not my daily diver because it's underpowered for my current work but it's great when I just need a map and something to stream audio. If I could design a dram phone it'd be a similar size, modern processor, 16G+ storage (I don't keep much) and 3G+ RAM with a headphone jack. That's it. I don't care about screens or cameras (I remove them and leave them with my collection of tinfoil hats, where possible) or of the other frills. Unfortunately for me, I'm not in a target market. Everyone seems to want to give their phone biometric data and keep Bluetooth and NFC running and take selfies so they can face swap with tennis shoes and.... GET OFF MY LAWN!

Because they don't care about versions. In 1999 Slackware jumped from version 4.0 to version 7.0 for marketing reasons. The other big distros were putting out higher versions and the visuals made it look like Slackware was behind. I don't recall the exact statement but the general message was something like "if we bumped versions like other distros, we'd be at 12 (or something) by now." It was a weird move but there was some sense to it. Linux isn't new. People understand that distro versions and kernel versions aren't the same thing. They don't need to uprev but -current is always moving.

Slackware was my second distro but the first (RedHat) was only on the box for a couple days before my really geeky friend shamed me into using Slackware. Soooooooooo painful. Soooooooooo hard to use. I was soooooooooo lost. I'm so much better off for it. I've been using Linux since the 90s and haven't ever stopped. I've run Slackware on laptops, desktops and servers for a lot of that time. I'm much lazier now and much more employed, so I use something with a native package management system that handles dependencies and laziness. When my home racks are online though, they're Slackware because it works, has always worked and will always work without any BS.

Patrick and team have done a great job for a long time and they deserve a lot of thanks for their work.
