    You can't use lefty rags as sources when even they say that there is no hard evidence. Only to follow up with STFU. Can you see the irony there?

    Suffice it to say, I do not agree with those that maintain making your hobby into a career will make you happy in your career. It may simply ruin your hobby.So very true.

    What is scary to me is how much of our military is still powered by win 9x and NTs that haven't been patched in over a decade. While these machines are not being targeted by mainstream malware creators, they are tempting targets for state actors and the like.

    More eyeballs are trained on open source projects and as such tend to get patched more quickly. While this is not always the case, we've all seen how walled gardens can at best quickly become gilded cages and at worst targets for malware writers. Removing root privileges does not really secure anything targeted by an exploit in an OS or a piece of hardware.

    I'm an "accidental" geek myself having gone to trade school for welding; only to have a serious back injury on the job. During my recovery, I broke out my old 286 to give me something to do while I was bored and quickly found it couldn't really do much for me (1990s) anymore and decided to upgrade. From there, it was all about the desktop, then the network, and then on to Linux by 1998. After nearly 20 years in the biz, I've hit burnout and left my job recently. If it had only required 41 hours a week, I might not have.

    I remember getting 3.5" floppies loaded with great stuff. Amazing to me that there was so much fun to be had on 1.44MBs. I loved the Doom shareware demo and it led to a sale of the full game. The "economics of FREE" in action.

    We're citizens. People. Not fucking consumers. When government refers to us or treats us as consumers, it does us a great disservice. Secondly, taxes are charity given to government to provide public services. No one OWES anything.

  21. Full Circle. on Mozilla Introduces Experimental Open Payment System For Firefox OS · · Score: 2

    It seemed like it took forever for Firefox 1.0 to be released back when I was using Firefox .8 and .9. I remember people sarcastically complaining numerous times in the forums back then that the developers were trying to create an operating system and not a browser. Well, here we are a little over 10 years later talking about Firefox OS's new payment system. I wonder how much, if any, of that source code from the pre-one-point-oh release is still in Firefox today. Is there any of it in FFox OS? I know I sure never thought there would be a market for a Firefox OS back in 2003. Kudos to the mozilla team.
