    No, big difference between finding and removing immigration criminals and citizens.

    Countries have borders and immigration laws. There is no problem using whatever means to locate immigration criminals.

    False, you are the one that wants censorship, to control people's minds, and to control what they talk about.

    Wrong. All the professional systems admins I know curse it, it is bad. I admin hundreds of systems and am sorry I'm being forced to upgrade them into the bloated, unstable, needlessly complicated garbage that is systemd.

    It does not belong on enterprise servers, it is bad enginering.

    Once upon a time, there were these particularly degenerate Indonesians who liked to perform analingus on civets. These filthy perverts were going to be executed, except they made a wager with the judge, that they could con well to do people to eat civet excrement because it was so tasty. The rest, as they say, is history.

    Sorry you were hoodwinked by those disgusting sexual deviants, and now take part in their unspeakable abomination.

    pointless because you ignore hard facts. pointless because you link nonsense article about absurd age of 145 years.

    I have hard facts and data on my side.

    You have willful ignorance

    The highest suicide rate is not found in the old, but of the middle aged. Caucasian males especially.

    You link to a nonsense article, that man is not 145 years old. Only one human has ever reach 120 years, and that woman then died at 122. All other humans have died at 119 or less years.

    And after reading many of the interviews of the world's oldest, I can tell you the majority are happy satisfied people; not bitter ones.

    You are wrong.

    many other things about humans' bodies disagree too. Out of 108 billion humans who were ever born, exactly 1 reached 122 with all the advantages of modern civilization. I'm going to say it's impossible to live to 124, all evidence is on my side.

  8. bad science on Study Suggests There's No Limit On Longevity (smithsonianmag.com) · · Score: 1

    I'd say all evidence shows there is a hard limit on human life, and reaching 124 years is utterly impossible. Prove me wrong. You can't.

    except the interviews with most of those of extreme age indicate an upbeat happy, accepting and relaxed state of mind. Maybe that's why they lived so long, the effects of stress and discontent and anger kill off the others.

    doesn't matter what happened in the past, that's done. there is no notion of atonement for it is pointless.

    China dwarfs the USA in carbon emissions...the US emissions don't even matter. So the USA should not harm its economy and people just for feel-good purposes.

    Ubuntu 18.04 has those same issues.

    you know Mint doesn't make those video drivers or VLC, right?

    of course they are dependent on upstream for any solutions to those problems. of course they won't say they'll fix it, how could they?

  14. No, blame for bad design that causes damages or harm is shared by the engineer, that's how profession works. The engineer who works for PHB that mandates design of bridges that kills shares the guilt for deaths, he was whore who sold himself out.

  15. it's garbage hardware design, yes.

    electrical engineers have failed in their design of memory and CPU.
