I think if it were just an init system, most people would be ok with it (or gripe a little and then move on, like with other alternative init systems that have existed in the past).
The major issue people are concerned about is that things will be built on top of systemd (and they have been built on top of systemd), and then you have a huge unrelated dependency on this init system which makes it hard to swap out in the future if you want to use containers.
A migration over 100 years or more is a comfortable migration,
And frankly, it's going to happen no matter what we do, because of climate or otherwise (as there have been many migrations in the past century.......some positive, some negative).
So.......we just had an article on Slashdot that showed there are more jobs in America now, at the end of the Obama administration, than there ever have been in the entire history of the US. More people working.
When do you expect that AI job reduction to actually start showing up in the numbers? That is, when do you think the number of jobs available will start decreasing instead of increasing?
Last time I saw an analysis of support for surveillance etc in congress, it was interestingly not divided along party lines. Roughly equal parts D and R opposed and supported it.
Rather, congress was divided by how much time they've spent in office. The newer ones tended to oppose it, and the older ones tended to support it. Note that the American public as a whole seems to favor it, so any campaign to change this should be aimed primarily at the American public, not the senators. Also, i think the country is kind of tired of being outraged, so I don't think you can get them outraged again. But who knows.
I don't really have a problem with this particular thing, as far as I can tell. It requires a warrant still.
It's the warrantless stuff, and the secret trials that I oppose. I don't oppose everything the FBI/NSA does (although there is a frighteningly large amount of what they do that I oppose, which is concerning).
If there was a way to make money off of honest discourse of political and social issues, someone would have already done so. The unhappy truth is that it is very hard to do so.
Yeah, the headline should be, "The End of TV," because there isn't a lot of discourse going on the TV. News programs are carefully choreographed reality shows. On Facebook, the articles may be fake sometimes, but at least people are talking to each other.
I am glad that TV and the media lose their power to control the narrative. After what they did to Bernie, it should be obvious to everyone that the media abuses their power.
No one is happier that Donald Trump won the election, including Mr. Trump himself.
For Assange, it literally might have been a life-or-death matter: she wanted to kill him (at least, that's how he perceived it). If anyone sponsored the email hacking, it was probably him.
So much hate everywhere on the internet. This isn't what the founders thought open communication would lead to.
I'll bet they thought about it. Fulvia stabbing the tongue of Cicero is surely something they knew about. The level of hate we see is not historically high.

When talking about Grandmas, this xkcd is better.

In Meiji era Japan, it was seen as attractive for women to paint their teeth black. Do you find that hot?
Yeah, actually, although it is might be an acquired taste. The whole color-scheme of the face probably needs to change.
I agree with your point though, what is thought of as attractive can change dramatically even within a few years.
Reuters Built An Algorithm That Can Identify Real News On Twitter
Lies.
I hope it flagged itself.
The amount of money in AGW is a fraction of the amount of money oil companies pump out of the ground every week.
Do you really think those two numbers are comparable?

AI even has begun replacing tattoo artists
Thank god
while people claim that real household income is flat even as far back as pre-1970.
It's not; you need to look at total compensation per hour worked.
I think part of the reason it works it that moderation effectively removes a lot of the worst of what people say. It's still basically censorship.
I don't consider that censorship, I consider that curating. :)
The comments are all still there.
The owners of Slashdot have every right to delete this comment that I'm writing right now.
The fact that they don't is one of the major reasons I like Slashdot.

We all love CSPAN!

Amazon uses stack ranking, too. Rumors are they will change it soon, but hasn't changed yet.
Next, everyone strikes to have an above-average income.
If you do that, then the politician who figures out how to re-define 'average' will win. We can all be above average! And we don't think.
Don't we all.
What kind of weird bacteria was that?? Sounds awful.
a lack of filthy cars meant waking up every morning with a layer of clean, organic, natural horse shit dust on your furniture.
You paint the picture with words so vividly.
I don't know, New York Times hasn't been very pro-Trump, but they managed to get an interview somehow.
No one is happier that Donald Trump won the election, including Mr. Trump himself.

I'm tired of all the lies that NASA keeps coming up with,
Uh......what on earth are you talking about?
