At this point you start with the big picture. You installed some distro to have a usable desktop. you expect a sane login system. Your distro does so, by using gdm. So your distro does what you expect from it, gdm does whats needed to fulfill this. cron is some helper, which does useful things, too. You may inspect it or disable it. Now systemd is another topic... But in the end, its something you (indirectly) chose. Some flash downloaded from a website is downloaded by some software you trust, still it is hidden and does things, where the programmer knew, they are against the user.
you have the typical off-by-one error, just as the other poster. No big deal, it happens often when calculating dates. This is why you really should use a library for this, or double check everything.
I think you didn't understand my post. The point is, that you get a new bit, so its a nice number. And that happens on the 256 day, when you start counting with 0.
When the law is strict regarding access and alteration, then it's no question about human/pc or automatic features.
The analogy with word is wrong. It autocorrects while editing. When someone sends you a document and your mailbox autocorrects the typos, thats the problem. Your mailprogramm / word on the other hand can change it again, because it's your choice to view the text with a program, which changes stuff.
That's the reason, why you can almost everywhere disable spamfilters or at least that they modify your mail with "[spam]" subjects. If you didn't request them to do, they are not allowed to do so and it's your right to deny this access.
Kind of wrong. The year is from 0 to 365. This means it starts with a day, which will complete the first day, when its 23:59:59. So 1 is the start of the second day. It's like your birthday, which counts the completed years. Otherwise the last day wouldn't be the 265th. But the "programmers" from the article don't get it either and even write 1111.1111 instead of 1.0000.0000
See the logo. 1111 1111. This is NOT 256d. The whole point of 256d is, that it is 100000000b and thus a round number. They seem to be no programmers either.
the.onion domain does guarantee this just as a certificate, because it's just a fingerprint of a key. (a certificate is a signature of the fingerprint plus identity information like a domain name).
you want to identify a domain with a server (not the other way round without the domain information first). SSL does that. You do not want to identify a server with a real ip (tor does this).
And tor even prevents from correlating two domains at the same server.
if you want to let the user make a choice, you need rights for everything the user can do. so wlan-location, gps-location, fine-location, cell-location as options mean you reserve all these rights at installation.
But i guess your binaries still had a different checksum. For example because of timestamps. So you need to analyse byte-by-byte, what are the differences and if they are unimportant. Now you get the same binaries and do not need to check anything further.
we're only thrilled to hear, what poettering will introduce. Because redhat will adapt it and then everyone starts using it, because if its poetteringware, it's quasi standard, isn't it?
You do not want the whole government to be hacked. So the more people bring their own infrastructure, the more people will be spared, if a single server gets hacked.
you're saying this, as if you were forced to use this software.
If the government would make it illegal to use these softwares, you would not say "But that's the majority of software i have", but "hey, i use some of the alternatives". Or at least pretend to. So why act as if your existing software is an unstoppable force, which requires you to use windows?
You cannot stop an operation system from spying on you, if you cannot trust it. If you need to firewall it, the trust is not enough. And MS can do stuff like sending the data while fetching the next windows update. Secured with TLS against YOU. Either you play with MS or you need to give up on them. You will not sufficiently stop them, as long as windows runs at the level of the operation system kernel.

the law says, the service provider should not snoop on private messages. no tos can change this.
Private messages of any kind have always the expectation of privacy.
Kind of wrong.

Apple is going to give away money? No, of course not. If they make a offer, they want profit. And who doubts this?

Who cannot find, that there are linux builds of palemoon should not post on slashdot.
Is that the Police can locate anybody, by reporting his device as stolen.

It has at least an easy opt-out.

still off topic
I think you did not understand his point.
no good reason, as KDE has good defaults.
Like upstart.

Nomen est Omen.
