It's only surprising if you are new to the computer industry. Most of us already know how appalling it is that Windows is still a thing for example. The instances of grand scale incompetence causing this kind of issue where there is no accountability are so many I have to wonder if this is your first day on Slashdot?
If your computer can access it then it is "on the network", so unless you plan on disconnecting your computer NIC, connecting the cable to the NAS, accessing your data, unplugging the NAS, clearing your cache and rebooting your system, then reconnecting your NIC every time, you are not following your own advice. Nice try at sounding like you are a security expert, but you made it pretty clear that you don't understand how networks work.
I can't comment on all of these, but as to who is going to verify the algorithm for finding the shortest route works? I'm quite sure that has been thoroughly vetted.
I find it hard to believe that, even with Poe's law in mind, you didn't know I was being scarcastic. All the improvements matter to someone, unlike the completely off topic "point" the OP tried to make.
The init system was never GNU, usually either SysV, BSD, or BusyBox for embedded systems, gnome3 is available on most distributions, you can choose a different WM than Gnome3 if you want. In other words you are clueless and wrong on all counts.
While there are thousands of Linux distributions, simply having.deb and.rpm support covers the vast majority of them. People have been doing this for decades. I'm not saying they shouldn't use their own, but making it sound like an insurmountable task is disingenuous at best.
The question isn't Why measure in Lines of Code, but why not put those numbers in a context. It is necessary to understand how LOC increase does, and more importantly perhaps, doesn't increase overall complexity, vulnerability / attack surface, etc.
I don't think there is any intention to deceive here... I just think the author forgot how much they know that the target audience doesn't.
An important caveat here is that increase in LOC count does not mean a linear increase in loaded kernel memory usage. For example, for every new driver each line of code is counted, but that driver may or may not compiled in or loaded as a module. If a driver for wireless card X is 1200 lines of code, but your system doesn't have that card and it was compiled as a module, then zero of those added lines of code generated machine code get loaded at runtime.
There are more than 1000.config options, and over 30 supported hardware architectures, so your code mileage *will* vary.
Google "monkey dart trump buffet", you fucking idoit. Everyone with an ability to form a thought is welcome. You can go fuck yourself until you kill yourself.
You keep doing it. He is a failure, a narcissist, and a scumbag who is doing everything he can to rape and pillage the country. Why people realize this simple truth is completely immaterial. What is important is that they do.
That was a lot of words to argue semantics before agreeing with me, but if "his businesses" went bankrupt and he is the owner, then that is what people mean when they say he went bankrupt.

I can only assume you never use Windows then, given your staunch stance on not using crap you can't trust.

Fair enough ... You may not like me, but would always hope you know I don't fall on the extereme SJW part of the asshole spectrum ;-)
It only looks bigger in context because he has such tiny fingers.
No need. Trump has been digging his grave for decades. It's almost ready ... he just needs to make a pit stop in prison first.

... ah, great point! None of these improvements matter; you have identified the one salient issue!

That was a lot of words to say you have no idea how Linux kernel development is done.
Absolutely, my brother!
Congratulations ... You win the SFC award!

Imagine my surprise that you couldn't have possibly googled and then read the links to become informed before replying.

Who said anything about a self-made billionaire? Trump meets neither criteria. Just ask Warren Buffet, who actually does meet that criteria.
Yeah ... That's not what Happened. You are an idiot. I'm done with you. Plonk.
At least you finally agree that the two are completely different, even if you are too stupid to know that you just admitted it.
You should probably read my other replies that expose your incompetence before making even more of a fool of yourself. As
Who told you myopic was a synonym for competent?
