Does someone who calls for another to be harmed, get blood on their hands when another person does it?
No. Let me repeat that. No, no, no. A thousand times no. If he actively assists the commission of the act, purposefully furnishes the means for the act, something like that, THEN we can talk.
Yeah. I don't know which is stupider, the stupid headline, or the stupid blockheads who are running terrified in circles moaning "oh noze they are taking away apt".
What's the "upstream" here? The only case where that seems to apply is Ubuntu switching from upstart in order to stay in sync with Debian.
There is a myriad of other Debian offshoots besides Ubuntu. Ubuntu has its own ecosystem, but just about all the others are stuck with whatever crap the asshats at Debian may decide on a whim to pollute Debian with.
The "adios" in the headline would seem to imply that as a rhetorical, at least.
The headline is spectacularly stupid. Nobody but nobody thinks that every package will/should be a snappy. It's basically a way to get some package here and there installed when it is not convenient to try and get a whole pantload of dependencies installed - perhaps because these dependencies as shared libraries might then conflict with some other packages you have.
I see it as less needed for a bleeding edge rolling distro like Arch, but it sure might come in handy for somebody stuck with CentOS6, dripping with prehistoric versions of everything, all of them interlocked in their obsolete cluster foxtrot.
Our UID 137's comment started out really well, with some provocative and fascinating points to ponder. Too bad it goes off the rails with the deranged overkill of western civilization and bogging down in an acid trip claiming "nobody understands anything".
A president can pardon themselves of anything not related to impeachment. Nixon wasn't impeached, he resigned first, but Congress could have impeached him even after a pardon.
Close. It would be more accurate to say that a pardon only preempts or reverses judicial process. Impeachment is not a judicial process. The judicial branch is not involved in impeachment. The penalty of impeachment is limited to removal from office and disqualification from holding future office.
I would like to think that a President who pardons himself would instantly be impeached, but over time I've been increasingly disabused of a lot of assumptive notions I once had over this formerly-great nation.
The CNG turbine is much more efficient than a diesel.
You are full of bull. Stick to a topic you know something about. Both gas turbines and diesels (non combined cycle) max out at about 45% to an utmost of pushing 50% thermal efficiency.
Please don't spread falsehoods. Large gas turbines are vastly more efficient than piddling little ones.
GE LM-2500, 25,000 kW output, 227 g/kWh specific fuel consumption Allison 250, 186 kW output, 468 g/kWh specific fuel consumption
There is no such disparity with, for example, diesel engines. In the same power range, specific fuel consumption is within around a 15-20% variance top to bottom.
The one which the President and every last fucking Congressman swore a solemn oath to uphold and defend, that's what Constitution. Everyone participating in this act is participating in a brazen act to overthrow our nation.
And that is exactly what it does. Of course, your code probably also calls - and links in - a lot of THEIR code and THEIR code adds the extra bits. Which means you really didn't do YOUR job and think about the implications of what external code you added to yours before you released it to your customers.
Oh, for christ almighty sake. Could you possibly be any more of a sellout?
A chassis lube should have been performed (to include suspension parts) at leas 5-7 times in that 70,000 miles
Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk. I am an old guy who remembers the advertising sign "Mobilubrication" at the gas stations in the 1950s, so you tickled my funny bone with your reference to antiquated, long-outdated requirements. "Chassis lube" hasn't been a thing for a LONG, LONG time now. Valve jobs and/or ring jobs are not an expected thing every 50,000 or so miles any more, either. Heck, there aren't even any service stations left as part of gas stations. Hell of a job finding buggy whips, too.
The insecurity is mitigated by making your minimum length 2-3 characters more.
I didn't think so, so I ran the numbers. Disregarding dictionary attacks, you have to brute-force 26^8=2^10^12 tries to nail "password", and 52^8=1x10^14 tries to brute-force "passworD", but 26^10=1x10^14 for "passwordab", which adds only 2 letters.
You're absolutely right. Doubling the character set from lower case to both cases only gives you a puny increase in entropy for passwords of non-trivial length. Clearly adding digits and punctuation characters doesn't help much either. A time-honored myth disposed of so readily.
But I still think a truly random word sequence is better[*]. If the following sequence of words is randomly chosen from a 100,000-word dictionary, it has an entropy of 100000^4=1x10^20.
unpleasantly limiter's citified chronicles
Note: that's only a sequence of 4 to memorize, rather than 8-10.
[*] CERTAINLY not a phrase or sentence that appears in literature, which is a siren song to choose. Whether an extemporized grammatically-correct and meaningful phrase or sentence is OK, can be argued. It's certainly a lot easier to remember.
Well, it turns out the joke's on both of us. The TRUE pronunciation turns out to be zontsh! I figure its creator should know how to pronounce his own creation. The host prnounces it at 01:20 of the podcast, and Anthony Scopatz does NOT correct him. Then Anthony pronounces it the same way at 04:40. Maybe they are both trying to pronounce the leading ks sound, but if so it doesn't matter because it sounds just like zontsh.
Hopefully we can put this "conch" fabrication/bullshit to bed.
There is a frame on a page on xon.sh giving the pronunciation, but it is impossible to get a reference to anywhere on that cursed site!
In sh, $? is the return value of the last command. And yeah, __xonsh_history__.rtns[-1] is pretty verbose as well as ugly. The FAQ could use a lot of improvement, though. Here, for example, it could point out that _.returncode also gives you the return value of the last command.[*]
You could also just define yourself a convenience function: def rc():
return _.returncode and then you could just use rc() in place of $?. Unfortunately AFAIK there's no way to avoid the empty parentheses in python.
[*] _ is a very cool predefined variable. It contains the complete results of the execution of the last command in a tuple: contents of stdin, stdout, and stderr; pid; return code; a sub-tuple of args including the command name; and a couple of other items.
Bash was not "designed" at all. It is a hack to bourne sh adding a crazy quilt of spliced-on features while not totally destroying compatibility all the way back to Unix v7.

More importantly, the speed of reading is user controlled. Watching and listening is force feeding and the speed is controlled by somebody else.
Reading is much faster than watching and listening - except for stupid people. Using Farcebook is already evidence of gross stupidity.
Yeah. I don't know which is stupider, the stupid headline, or the stupid blockheads who are running terrified in circles moaning "oh noze they are taking away apt".

Does it? Or could overriding the (current!) preference of the BULLSHIT pre-selected undemocratic super-duper-delegates be enough?

Do you really think those are the only choices? Like or HATE? The antonym of "like" is "dislike", not "hate".
My own opinion is that the proportion feeling deranged hate for either of the two is not unusually high.

Proof or you made that up. I'm going to block everything outside my LAN to the TV at the router.
Yeah, 16 milliwatts sounds a mite wimpy.

If this bothers you, how do you think TeX is supposed to be pronounced? Hint: it ain't teks.
My only problem is, are you supposed to pronounce it kontch? Or kongk? The conch shell on the beach is pronounced kongk.
