  1. Yes dumbshit. IoT vendors are indeed focusing on security much more these days. You would know that if you did even a modicum of research.

  2. Holy shit. I'm not exaggerating when I say that was by far the most stupid Godwinism I have ever seen in my life.

  3. Apparently your understanding of internet security and well being is non-existent. It wasn't to help the people know they were vulnerable, it was to protect the entire internet from the dangers of said vulnerability. No doubt you would prefer someone use the obvious vulnerabilities to cause damage to the internet while you continue to broadcast your ignorance on Slashdot

  4. Are you actually so stupid you don't know the difference? When door vendors start selling doors with locks that don't work because there is no financial motivation to add them and your house and 100,000+ others are used by criminals to damage a third party who pays a lot of money to secure their dwelling, then get back to us. Idiots like you are the reason we need guys like this in the world.

    Yeah ... It's a good thing they didn't take the time and money to do that and invest it in actually "touching" the system.

    That's not what is going on here. What is going on is that you bought in to their pretense. The idea is to move government control into the private sector where Trump and his cronies get paid to have control over and access to the private data of the U.S. citizenry. Congress needs to enact a law outlawing this kind of ridiculous power grab. To paraphrase Einstein government should be as small as possible, but never smaller.

    The situation exists because of humanity. Also, I've got news for you. If a woman wants to be pursued and you dont that can get you in trouble as well. It is painfully evident that you have a theory, but no experience at all.

    That's an interesting fact that gives the idea that is inspired by Obama quite the element of truthiness to it. Of course it was coined by Colbert in response to Bush and the tendency to ignore facts by his supporters.

  10. That's not correct. You apparently haven't been paying attention. Big names in the APA have come out and said that, while normally the Goldwater rule applies, in this case the concern for the well being of the human race outweighs the concern normally involved in not *offering* a public diagnosis. One does not need to meet Trump to have him talk to you and tell you everything you need to know. He constantly runs his mouth and his Twitter account, and has stated in writing that destroying communities for a profit is fine so long as he personally makes a profit. He openly stated he has no remorse for the destruction of hundreds of thousands of people's lives. Seriously, this isn't a hard one to figure out.

  11. Just about the entire psychiatric community has already stated that he is a sociopath. This is not some big secret at this point.

    It is the job of the pursuer to be perfect and read minds? You sure you don't want to re-think that? What about when a woman clearly flirts to get you to ask her out when she just wants the self esteem boost and then cries "creep" to her friends? It really sounds like you never interacted with any women frankly.

  13. Actually I do. Sociopaths are incapable of being friends with anyone.

    Right, and not only can you actually get Reader for Linux if you want it, creating PDFs is as simple as "export as PDF" from the file menu in Libre Office. Also, a car won't work for me that isn't a Porsche. "Show me another car that has a Porsche steering wheel!"

  16. A minor correction: Nobody, and I mean *nobody* is Trump's friend. He does however have associates who tolerate him because there is something in it for them.

    I'm your phantasy world problems keep popping up due to systemd. Over here in the real world I and many others have been using it for several years and have had none. It's funny that of the many people complaining almost nobody offers a real world example and in the rare case that they do it turns out to be their ignorance that is the problem. It isn't perfect, but let's not pretend init script based systems didn't have their share of problems either. It's called software. By definition it will have bugs that need to be fixed upon occaison.

    Only 2 decades ago? You are a newbie. News Flash, systemd is not going anywhere. Linux isn't UNIX, and that is a good thing. Have a great time misunderstanding systemd!

    Try ls on a partition you haven't run mkfs on and let me know how that goes, and you can't run libpng at all BTW. Anyway, good luck learning about Linux!

    Really? Can ls, cp, and their ilk do their job without mkfs? OMG, it's a circular dependency! That's just one of 100 examples BTW. gcc can't build anything non-trivial without a make tool.

    That is an artifact of of your misunderstanding. systemd is not a program it is a package. Claiming it doesn't do one thing is like saying the linux-tools or whatever package ls, df, man, grep, etc. are in (I don't recall at the moment) doesn't follow the philosophy because those *packages* don't do one thing. It is just another myth. Period. If you want to write BASH scripts do that, for example. You don't need to learn anything new but how unit files work, which is so easy it isn't funny. Literally every complaint I see is from people who never bothered to learn anything about systemd and are just spreading bullshit they read here from trolls and fools.

    No, it is not the job of the pursuer to make sure the pursued takes responsibility for their own actions. This obviously only applies to adults. Furthermore, again, a single incident is *not* harassment. Only when a woman (or other) person exercises their right to say no and the person continues does it qualify as harassment.

    More bullshit. "systemd doesn't follow the UNIX philosophy; it is monolithic!" Completely untrue, and you can use BASH all day if you want. systemd doesn't "pass on" log messages. You will get the same ones with or without it. Finally, if the tiny amount of I/O and disk space used is an issue you have serious problems.

    Just an extra point. I have used several distributions over the years with systemd including Red Hat and Debian and derivatives and have *NEVER* seem one where logs weren't being kept in /var/log/syslog in addition to the systemd journal. It's a fabricated problem by anti-systemd trolls who have never actually used it.
