As usual you are spewing some phenomenally stupid shit. I'm pretty sure most people are not of the opinion "just watch the child pedo and tough the fuck up." I do however understand why you don't see why most people find the task objectionable.
I'm traumatized because I keep seeing posts from a moron who doesn't know the difference between "to" and "too", and he keeps trying to sound intelligent but keeps blasting his stupidity to the world instead!
Hey asshole. You haven't been paying attention. I don't own a gun; never have. But take away my right to own one and see how that goes for you. If I know you are responsible for that stupidity I'll personally get ahold of a still readily available firearm and laugh as I "pop a cap" in your head. Fuck you and your desire to be Trump's bitch.
I'm assuming he said it to you since you are presenting it as an anecdote rather than a citation. I think most of us can agree that it was clearly an appropriate response in that case.
If your computer is connected to the internet then when you have your USB drive plugged in and mounted it is on the network. No need for quotation marks, nor is it "my definition". If your computer has not been compromised then neither has the data on your drive, but if it has then your data on the FLASH drive is compromised as well, because when your computer is on the network, then so is any device to which it has access. This is actually the definition of networking. The OP likely meant "Don't open port 80" on the WD device, but... not understanding networking... called blocking port 80 "not on the network", or alternatively believed that if there wasn't a direct connection from the WD NAS NIC to his router or gateway, that it was somehow not "on the internet." I'm glad to help anyone learn, but try to avoid the snark. I assure you I know exactly what terms mean, how networking works, and what it means to be on the network. No air gap == on the network.
So we haven't tried making guns illegal, but we somehow know that not doing so has failed to make us safer than if we did? Yep... You is a stupid motherfucker. Plonk
I gave a perfectly logical argument, but clearly you are too stupid to understand it. In the US people thought you could eliminate alcohol consumption by making them illegal. It turns out that just spawns Al Capones and turns otherwise law abiding citizens into criminals. You are one dumb motherfucker if you can't grasp this simple fact. Few people will give up their right to bear arms because Uncle Sam created a law to try to appease Aunt Ginny.
Your correction is rejected. Every competent developer on the planet knows this. I'll leave it as a homework exercise to figure out what that makes you, and why you are so butthurt.
And for those who don't understand the quote, which I had on a T-shirt as a teenager, Torvalds is the great spirit and those crying that there is no LKML "participant" medal are the mediocre minds who don't understand that designing the most widely used code on the planet isn't a game and protest that they can't play Linux kernel development too, because the coach is a meanie.
I hate to break it to these guys but there are countless examples that disprove this. I believe I am human and when I show up to a job where I could slack easily I prefer to work hard. Yes, I'm just one example; an anecdote that doesn't equal evidence as I'm sure some idiot would be quick to reply. The problem is that there are many, many like me as well as other counter-examples.
I hope your friend didn't mistakenly put quotes around the words "save time" like you did. Any competent designer weighs the two and chooses to invest the time, not spend it. You and/or your friend also missed where the effort invested pays off in reliability. Once vetted algorithms can be trusted to be correct, whereas humans can be trusted to screw it up at the worst possible time.
This is the USA. The criminals are already there and praying that such a stupid move is made so that they can begin profiting immediately. Your belief that how things work in other countries is even remotely similar to how they work here is at best phenomenally naive.
I'm not even pro gun. I just know that, just as with drugs, making guns illegal will *increase* crime and deaths, not virtually eliminate them as these no gun in the country fantasy havers believe.
Nope. He is a Linux contributer who just realized the LMKL is about to get a lot more stupid now that Linus is talking about not calling out incompetence.
You have been watching too many movies if you think it would be necessary to drive a truck into the building. They do that for dramatic effect fuckwit.
I have a new crime of which you clearly have never heard. It's called gun trafficking. It really is 100% true that if guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns. Guns aren't even the best way to take out a shitload of people, so you might want to think for the first time about being careful what you ask for, because the new headlines will be "Man, unable to find a gun, detonates an IED and kills *everyone* at company x."
Again, Linus is a humble guy and when he lets go it is deserved. Because Linus now says what you say doesn't make it true. It has always served a very important purpose, to wit, making sure dumbfucks don't come to the party. Being more inviting to dumbfucks will NOT work out for the better for anyone but the dumbfucks.
So you are only an asshole on Slashdot then, because only an asshole would argue that Linus has been out of line. Anyone who has actually invested the necessary time to have a clue would have seen his talks and interviews. He isn't an asshole; he is in fact quite humble for a guy who literally improved the state of computing by an order of magnitude beyond the pathetic state it was in when "great guy and philanthropist" Gates was fucking everyone over. E-mail is simply a piss poor communication method when you don't know the person with whom you are communicating. I can say "You incompetent baffoon" in a way that is ascerbic, or in a way that is not. And frankly, when Linus rants he is generally justified in doing so. This is a sad set of events, and the kernel code *will* suffer down the road as a result. Go back Linus... You have been bamboozled by incompetents who know their code is sub-par and want to put on their resume that they "participated."

While I would certainly never mod you or the idiot(s) below "insightful" this thread provided a lot of insightful into what scum you really are.
There is an entire industry that specializes in facilitating off site backups.

Yep. You should definitely go kill yourself so the world will be a better place. QEDumbfuck

And those countries had a long established second amendment and a history of legal gun ownership that was taken away, right ... Oh wait!
You should have waited before posting and then thought a bit, then given your clear history of being unable to do that, kept waiting.

That's OK. My code did it for you.
