  1. Re:Seems like a delusional new age witch hunt. on Only 100 Cybercrime Brains Worldwide, Says Europol Boss · · Score: 1

    No one is starving in the USA unless they are too lazy to go get their food stamps. Then they spend those on orange drinks and ho-hos, brushing both sides of the aisle at walmart with their fat bellies. I'm talking about inner city people who do most the stealing. You make excuses for laziness and evil.

    I do know some people who were poor and hungry during the depression, my relatives and the cites they lived in. But they didn't steal and there was no crime. Strange how having morals and proper upbringing cuts down crme, while those with no family structure, no morals, no work ethic blame others and circumstances for their problems and the crimes they do.

  2. Re:Is there no commandline? on ChromeOS Will No Longer Support Ext2/3/4 On External Drives/SD Cards · · Score: 0

    sure it does, Linux is just a kernel. What the corporate world wants to add to the Android operating system is very much market focused and cost constrained. There is no need to make extx convenient since almost no one wants it; those niche few who want it can look up the simple steps to mount any linux supported filesystem.

    Always amusing to see geeks complain about a corporation not spending money to feed their very niche minority wants. Like when Google stops supporting unpopular services that only found use by geeks.

    nonsense, reveals pragmatism. Companies should not waste money on what the market doesn't want or need. The market for chromebook isn't Linux fanboys.

    The lazy person would be the one too stupid to do the few steps it takes to mount any Linux-supported filesystem on Chrome, it's not hard to do. The problem is between your ears.

    Wrong-headed thinking on your part.

    People steal because they are thieves, plenty of people will not steal. A thief is a kind of evil person. Crime is caused by criminals, evil people
