    How is that flamebait you fucked up mods?

    The tool to read corrupt journald journals is journallctl. The "no repair" feature means that you can't write a corrupt journal, not that you can't read it.

    "core debianistas"?

    There are around 950 active debian developers.

  3. Re: They should switch it to "devuan" on Linux Mint Debian Edition 2 Will Be Rolling-Release · · Score: 1

    A lot of its participants are, to put it nicely, rather toxic individuals. Anyone who has a differing opinion from these toxic individials is labeled a "troll". Immaturity is rife, and many of the participants seem to be involved just to hold positions of "power", and not to create a top notch Linux distro.

    What do you expect from a group who largely define themselves by irrational hatred of one person?

    It's fun to see how much people HATE systemd! When you find out that a corrupt system journal can't be repaired. You have to use strings(1) to read it. Search the CrunchBang forum for systemd.

    You don't use strings(1), you use journalctl(1)

    Huh?

    My phone uses systemd. How "mini" do you want to get?

  6. Re:Could have profound purpose on CrunchBang Linux Halts Development · · Score: 1

    If you want a systemd-less debian just install sysvinit on Debian. You don't need a new distro.

    By the time it hits the ground, depending on the mass of the projectile, it can have the potential of a small nuclear bomb

    Only if it took the power of a small nuclear bomb to get it into orbit.

  8. Re:The strangest moon in the solar system is ours. on The Strangest Moon In the Solar System · · Score: 4, Interesting

    There is also the bizzare coincidence that the size of our moon, viewed from the earth is almost exactlty the same as the sun, viewed from the earth -- hence total eclipses of the sun.

    Our moon is not a moon? Sorry?

    (BTW I know that there are bigger moons than ours, but they're moons of Jupiter FFS).

    So why not contribute to Debian? What stopped you working on sysvinit, upstart, openrc or whatever?

    Norway can't, except as part of the ESA.

    Hell, Britain has only done it once.

    (Good joke: Britain put a satellite into orbit after cancelling the program because it cost too much, they had one launcher on the pad after the cancellation and it was cheaper to try to launch it than to dismantle it).

    it's not government mandated, it's a *natural* monopoly

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N... [wikipedia.org]

    things like fire, police, healthcare, powerplants: there is no market for such things. for a number of reasons. with broadband it's because of high barrier to entry: no one has the billions to gamble on entering the market with uncertain payout

    So, please explain why in socialist France broadband is not a monopoly?

    (In fact its a government enforced free market).

    Seeing as the Sixth Amendment only applies to American citizens, why would you assume it applies to foreigners?

    Strange, nowhere in:

    In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.

    Do I see a mention of citizenship.

  20. Re:Modula-3 FTW! on Ask Slashdot: Is Pascal Underrated? · · Score: 1

    For instance, "++i" is a more immediately recognizable idiom than "i := i + 1".

    No true Pascal programmer would write "i := i + 1". They'd say "i := succ (i)"
