  1. How is Java non-Unixy-? You toss it into a directory, set an environment variable or two and you're done. What do you expect that you aren't getting which would make it more Unix-y?

  2. You've never heard of reality, so it's all good.

  3. Yeah, it really sucks when all those people doing stuff for free stop doing what you want them to do and you're too fucking lazy to pick up the slack. Damn shame, it is, a real damn shame.

  4. Re: You're making up contradictions that don't exi on Adios Apt and Yum? Ubuntu's Snap Apps Are Coming To Distros Everywhere (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Free Software began as copies of something else. Anyone who thinks FS is or was intended to be innovative is a fucking moron.

    You're also bullshit, and are not needed. At least real bullshit serves a useful purpose.

    It seems like you haven't heard of reality.

    Dog-cow's Law: the first to mention Godwin's Law deserves to be gassed.

  8. Or PETA. Or any other of dozens of crazy people who need a cause and don't give a shit whether it's a religion or some kind of social thing.

    I suspect you've never read the Old Testament. It doesn't say what you imply it does.

    Perhaps if you spent more time flipping burgers and less time on slashdot, you'd be able to afford some real hardware.

    It's hard for some people to realize that other places are different. What's ironic is that this is a stereotypically American failing.

    That is an assertion which is impossible to prove. Do we know that 9 other attacks were planned in Paris, but were thwarted due to the unavailability of firearms? How about Brussels?

    It's also far more convenient to have your feces stuffed up your nose.

    Oh, what's that? Different people have different ideas of convenience? Oh, the horror!

    Or, if you know you don't owe anything, you can file whenever the hell you want, because there is no penalty. (The fine for late filing is a percentage of the taxes owed.)

  17. Re: Omar Saddiqui Mateen? on World Reacts To The Worst Mass Shooting In U.S. History (cnn.com) · · Score: 1

    I live in a country where a significant number of young adults walk around with semi-automatic weapons slung over their shoulder, and there has never been a mass murder on that scale from any of them.

    It's not the guns that are the problem; it's a culture that glorifies violence.

    I don't find it surprising at all. Unexpected? Maybe. Most people who identify with extreme violence don't actually commit any themselves. Surprised? Not in the slightest.

    Will Congress simultaneously abolish late filing penalties and fines for taxes, after the USPO is gone and there is no reliable mail delivery service in the US? Yeah, I didn't think so.

  21. Re:Has IPv6's reputation just been destroyed? on Netflix Blocks Many IPv6 Users Over Geolocation Difficulty · · Score: 1

    Security isn't so great that it makes any practical difference whether or not your toaster is routable. The original Internet was designed to have any two endpoints be able to communicate via publicly-accessible IP addresses. The purpose of routers is to know how to reach other networks, not to act as a mediator between two private networks. Servers exist to provide services. They don't handle routing*.

    * the hardware may be physically the same, but conceptually a server isn't a router and vice versa.

    BB had the entire corporate market to themselves. If they had bargained with the carriers the way Apple did, they could have gotten somewhere. I don't believe for a moment that they cared enough to do so.

    What a load of shit. In what way has history shown us that Microsoft will screw its customers? Sure, they've had issues with other businesses, but those weren't users. Unbridled hatred is bad, no matter who the target is.
