    Yet a other reason to NOT TALK TO THE POLICE. Yeah it is almost a meme but its true. If the police cannot be trusted to keep infomartion safe it should not be trusted to protect you at all. Not telling anything appear like the best option again.

    All of this uncaring for the privacy and security will only make their job harder in the long run. Serve them well, i hope they learn the right lesson (Stronger security, not more repression for the breacher).

  3. Re:did she really "hack" it? on IT Worker's Revenge Lands Her In Jail · · Score: 2

    Hacking has become a synonym for magic. Any technical feat that is beyond understanding is hacking. With the dumb media we have, pretty much anything is hacking these days.

    Yet by many measures we have less crime than most other countries. This is a testament to how broken and corrupt our Congress has become.

    One could argue that if there is less crime it is because so many peoples are in jail.

    I do agree with your position on that subject. I just think that last argument is not very good :)

  6. Re:Respect on Facebook's Zuckerberg To Give Away Half His Cash · · Score: 1

    Journalists are not monitoring bank accounts to see when someone is doing a donation. The press wont write anything unless they get a press release announcing the donation. Which is exactly what Zuckerberg did today when he publicly "signing up".

    Anonymity, in this context, is not hidding behind 7 proxy. It is simply not bragging about it.

    Oops, i forgot to address your second criticism.

    "unselfish concern for the welfare of others."

    It would not be unselfish if they get PR out of it. When it come to donation, the only unselfish way is through anonymity.

    Not paying taxes is a theft. The worst kind of theft, it deprive every citizens of the quality services their representatives voted for AND cause them to pay even more taxes for all the asshat that should have but did not. If i was victim of a thief i would like the police to act the same way. Thank you very much.

    Why you bring political bullshit in? Government don't take money by force, that money is due for all the services you get. Or did you mean like a commerce take your money by foce when you buy something? If you want to argue that you do not get your money's worth of public services, please do so in the appropriate thread/story. eg.: Not this one. Also, true altruism is anonymous donation or volunteering, not making yet a other Metoo foundation.

    "E pluribus unum" or "Out of many, one" is amazingly good compared to the actual one. In your place i would protest so it return to that 1782 dictum. "In God We Trust" sound a lot like something the Islamic Republic of Iran would choose.

    If your kid is small enough such that someone reversing his car can't see him - then s/he probably shouldn't be out on their own.

    When was the last time blaming the parent was acceptable? If someone drive over his toddler, the car is clearly at fault. Music, television, video games, the Internet, the parent is never responsible of anything because he is also a voter.

    All these consern apply for surface road, bridge and tunel. I am sure these were evocated when the automobile became widely used.

    In fact, forget the underground tube. Just lay them on the street. And make them larger so they can carry 2 to 4 person. These are the self driving car we been waiting for. Safer then flying cars. No more trafic jam. No more road deicing and thier awful effect on the environement. Tubes are the road of the future.

    Then dont use Wayland apps(if such thing exist) on Wayland desktop. Noting prevent you from building gtk, for example, with x11 backend and use it on your remote display and local wayland with x11 server.

    No one write apps using the xlib(except for game that just setup gl context). The say way, no one will write apps using only wayland lib. The same toolkit will be used and you can build them to use what ever backend you wish to use.

    See Wayland as a display backend and x11 as your application display front end. This will work as good as what you have today until something even better come to replace the networking layer.

    You can run X on top of Wayland. See Wayland as cleaner division of what is in kernel, what is in local user space and what is remote. There is no need to glob all this into a single monolithic X binary. X will work just fine in wayland. It wont change anything except that you wont need to be root to start accepting x11 conection.

    Personaly, i hope remote display is worked inside the ui toolkit instead. I would like something like gtkssh that open a ssh link and pipe thru the widget building command. This will fix the clinet/server relation to what peoples expect. Make it easyer to acess remote apps from many hosts securly. With that, a gtklib with "pipe" backend could be installed on servers. Puling configuration tool gui, directly from the server would make personal home server more accesible.
