like overzealous DRM largely ruined streaming media for a long time, and forced folks to pirate for usability, so do most of the self checkout systems I've used make me want to wait in line to just not have to stink-eye the really bored overseer at the end of the line to hit the "accept" button for literally every other item I scan because the scale is out of balance and they can't be bothered to buy a maintenance contract.
It's just one editor in reality, you can tell the quality of the article based on the "Editor" posting it. "msmash"'s articles, are just like the name states phonetically, a "mish-mash" of random words that almost form a relevant, coherent story.
One time this guy walked into a bar. He said "ouch" and then knocked on the door. The guy inside said, "who's there?" so I said "orange you glad yo momma so fat?"
I saw this movie once and this butterfly got killed and then they never invented doritos so like we never went to the moon because a little boy went to school with a sandwich and cheetos, and the bully didn't beat him up because he already had cheetos, but had he had doritos he would have beat up that kid and that kid would have growed up to be tougher because he has a woman's name.

Nah, that's a common misunderstanding between how matter and antimatter interact. They're very cautious and only engage in a fight they know they can win, but their technology is very limited in terms of detection, so only when there's a REALLY REALLY APPRECIABLE difference in the sizes of the two armies does the larger one accept casualties and attack.
Considering ICMP traffic is the lowest priority and frequently dropped in congestion situations, they would have been better off implementing it via their own protocol rather than piggy-backing off of that. I don't suppose I need to explain why the theory is bad, and just how DMCA violations would just stack up using this filesystem..
The issue is they wanted to own all the code so instead of donating fixes or adding hooks as needed they encapsulated the whole thing into something they could own and control.
That's irrelevant. The point of raid is that with a redundant configuration it automatically handles errors and rebuilds (best it can). The problem is ZFS tries to implement raid, I/O scheduling, and filesystem as one big blob. If there's a better way discovered to keep data safe, it will be implemented in the COMMON layer, which already has years of theory and practice baked into its stability. It's like writing an application that directly writes pixels to the graphics card. It becomes huge, doesn't interact well with the existing layers present, nor does it benefit from the widespread testing and fixes applied to those layers as issues are discovered.
So they say. Don't you find it odd that a drive can't possibly correct for errors but a filesystem can?
That's because the filesystem can just write to a different spot on the device, but if a specific spot on the physical device goes bad it's bad. In fact, almost all drives automatically error correct, you can see the stats through utils like "smartctl". A drive generally has +10%-+20% of advertised capacity, and exports a virtual mapping of the drive. As sectors start to show signs of failing, the address is transparently mapped to some of this "extra" space and things continue as normal. It's only a drive-failure scenario when you've mapping the majority of this extra space, or there is a sudden failure (like water damage) versus a worn sector.
Generally, the filesystem follows a storage spec. Just because it's an alternate implementation doesn't mean the underlying data is incompatible, in fact quite the opposite. That's why both are called "ZFS" - They follow the same data model. If they didn't, it would have a different name.
That brings up a point I was going to raise: it's odd that this algorithm would be summative of values for individual words rather than trying to derive a context. Given that would be a really stupid design, my guess (if you think I read TFA you best check the url you're currently on) is that they tested this by taking a sentence like "You're so happy", got a score, replaced it with "you're so gay!" or "you're such a jew!" and got a negative sentiment whereas things like "you're so funny" generally had a positive context. I.e. biased testing.
It's just doing its job. Obviously on the data it was trained, "gay" and "jew" were used as derogatory terms. And they're apologizing for that instead of explaining it? Wouldn't you rather have a system that didn't have injected bias, like injecting an override such that "gay" and "jew" receive a sentiment boost despite that being contrary to its training? Total crap. Someone probably ran through every SJW term and happened to find two that didn't have the results they wished it had on usage amongst speech.
"if we accidentally get some of your files, we delete them immediately-- any files of any type, no matter what they are or what they do."
But if it got malware, how are they supposed to know if YOU wrote the malware (and thus the policy would be to delete it) or if you just downloaded it (and thus their policy should be to catalogue and hash)?
"Lost without GPS" is a big issue for me. IT's very annoying when folks can no longer handle directions like "turn left at the second light" and instead need to take their eyes off the road every 4 seconds to see how close they are getting to said light.
I played with my imagination and ran around the woods a ton. They had TV, and cartoons and stuff on them. I was probably 7 or 8 when I saw my first cartoon / show directed toward children. Last place I wanted to be as a kid was in the family room with the shared television.
Now that people call the police when I run around pretending to be an airplane and that I'm in a bombing mission using pine cones against the invisible force that resides in the empty parking space... it's led to a lot more TV watching to pass the time in a sanctioned form:(
They are not desktop replacements. They are not laptop replacements.
But the laptop already replaced the desktop for.... most everything.
Hell, even at slow-to-adopt large companies I've worked at they eschewed the desktop completely for a dockable laptop. Other's have their 10-year-old-desktops-because-why-should-an-employee-need-performance while everyone got a new laptop (or a replacement every ~3 years). The latter I guess either to ensure either free voluntary overtime, or to not allow "no computer access" as an excuse for not doing oncall/forced overtime. And at home? Yeah I have a couple desktops that are sitting in a closet somewhere. I don't play games except on a console, and why should I be isolated in a room and a desk to browse slashdot and make cynical remarks when I can do it right from my couch?

Why not just have a small partition with a stable system installed on it for recovery purposes? Or a live cd?

This whole mess is all Obama's fault
No, it's a collaborative attack from North Korea and Russia. I have an unnamed confidential source that told me so. But they are really trustworthy!

Moose are a pretty slow source of entropy. Better to use a cat chasing its tail.
But then what seeds the seeder?
Just means you need to find seedier parties.
