UFO exists, in the sense there are aerial phenomena that are not identified. That's all. All the idiots thinking about alien life coming to visit us are in dire need of learning. The size of the universe, the speed of causality, the scale of time would be a start. But also recent history. The one that led to this myth of the flying saucer.
In a nutshell. Someday, a long time ago, a pilot reported he saw a V-shaped something in the sky that was moving weirdly (like a saucer bouncing on water). Basically, he saw a bird and he could not identify it. I think to recall the drawings in the reports are looking like the "v" a child uses to draw any bird. A lazy journalist took the note and reported "a flying saucer" (fake news are not a novelty). Idiots being what they are, multiple reports of flying saucers spawned from people (so not shaped at all like the original text).
Fast forward to Roswel.
A Mogul crashed, it was decorated with "mysterious symbols" (usual stuff you could find in a shop in the area). And yet people believe this nonsense.
Why they don't simply take one of the many more common mythologies is beyond me.
And why this garbage is on Slashdot is just a new low. I should really consider blocking it on my resolver to lose the habit of coming here.
"News for nerds, stuff that matters." It took me a while to understand what it was about. (I had too look up "UFC") A kid streaming a pirated video of an UFC fight pretending to play a video game.
I don't know how news about various science breakthrough will survive after this.
As far as I'm concerned, if we had the power to mod an article, this one would be reaching an msb set to 1 followed by a stream of zeroes.
When I was so fed up with Windows 10 and its long list of annoyances (the final one being preventing me accessing every directory on my filesystem, settings the rights back as soon as I specifically set them so I could see their content) I decided to give up playing with a couple hundred games that would not work in Linux... yet (mostly the 'AAA' ones). It's not like I've much time to play anyway.
The backup of my disks (a few terabytes) took about 5 days. Just initializing it took the better part of an hour. 5 Days later, I switched to an Arch (a systemd-free version) and restoring the data took less than one hour.

"choose" ?

That must be the first thing you have read today, then:) With the elaborate demonstration you've written to back up your statement, I can only bow to the heights of your intellect. (You can even read? I stand amazed.). Here, take a cookie. Now run along, you scrawny toddler.:)
I've heard about this a long time ago (feels more than 20 years) and the only thing that I could say against, is that the raise was slower than I expected (I think I was a kid at the time, and it was on the TV/FUD news machine, so there is that).
If it cures cancer, then I would buy it without the headphone jack (just in case it's needed some day). But it does not : it's a (ugly) phone that will break because of humidity (lots of places on Earth), and has no headphone jack. It's out. To its credit : it's a flat screen. (Rounded glass sides be damned) (I'm not personally interested by wireless charging)
That's not the point (but kudos for spending time altering code, sincerely). Besides installing the default minimal package (Arch), the most I would do with Kodi is./configure --disable-all-plugins --enable-all-decoders --disable-all-encoders && make && make install I'm a dev and I have more interesting things to do in my spare time than trying to understand why some modules cannot be removed physically in a trivial manner. It's not worth it. (I prefer to invest my remaining energy into improving something more interesting, e.g. : Wine) And my slightly paranoid side tells me allowing plugins when none are needed for my use case is inviting trouble a.k.a entry point.
In the base package, simple useless modules are enabled by default and grayed-out for removal. The easiest access point for the source code is the original sources. Apparently you have not idea what you are talking about. AC, Should I be surprised ? I think not.
I'll try to make it simple, even for you. Old XBMC: small, simple, static, good. New Kodi: big, bloated, dynamic, bad.
I liked the old Kodi/XBMC : a light browsing + viewing media application for my legally obtained/home-made content.
Since that time it became bloated with plugins that are looking for your videos on web sites (imdb & cie), and doing "god knows what".
I tried to disable them all, without success.
I tried to recompile from the source, disabling every useless plugin, but the build process is not very clear (and uses cmake, that I find less user-friendly than a well-made autotools chain).
In the end I gave up and now I simply browse to my file and play with the default media player of my current OS.
Because "humans" will end up saying "yes" to about everything. Free game. Free browser. Similar named application. There is no way to aid "idiots" who do not keep at least one backup of their relevant data.
I don't want to wear Bluetooth headphones 5 to 6 hours a day (noise-cancelling, courtesy of that productivity killer fad of open-offices). As for the arguments for an SD slot : I want to be able to switch storage to another device easily and quickly and to do backups. Even if built-in storage was not so grossly overpriced, I would still choose SD.
For as long as I remember, most companies only care about security a bit after some critical issue happen. Then they act as it was their chief concern.
Doing that is easy. Both keys need to sign records for a while.
A new KSK is published and as such signed in the zone along with the previous KSK. This new KSK can automatically accepted as valid by resolvers and when, days later, the old KSK is removed, only the new KSK signature remains (or more accurately: is remade, as it covers all DNSKEY records)
DNSSEC is not that complicated (if you ignore the convoluted NSEC3 chains)

Tell me that next time your laptop or phones catch fires, hopefully when your are not asleep.
Fast ?

Sounds about right, I was around 15 at that time.
Where are my mod points when I need them ...
I've heard about this a long time ago (feels more than 20 years) and the only thing that I could say against, is that the raise was slower than I expected (I think I was a kid at the time, and it was on the TV/FUD news machine, so there is that).
I've read BT as BeaTs ... >_.
Please disregard previous comment.
You may try to read the headlines again. (Maybe they have changed since you wrote this).
Or the linked article (since the headlines can be wrong).
Then again, last time I checked (years ago, granted) BT was utter crap. (If you like Hi-Fi, and not "boom boom")
If it cures cancer, then I would buy it without the headphone jack (just in case it's needed some day).
But it does not : it's a (ugly) phone that will break because of humidity (lots of places on Earth), and has no headphone jack. It's out.
