  1. Re:Middle click copy-paste missing on Enlightenment E20 Released With Full Wayland Support (enlightenment.org) · · Score: 1

    not only that but it seems like remote desktop and remote application capability is a mere afterthought if that.

  2. I don't think anything would happen if Israel went systematic. Here's a scenario.
    UN security council will vote to do something
    US would veto anything the security council does in the name of "Israel has the right to defend themselves"
    Nothing would be done.

  4. Re:The hilarity it keeps growing. on NYT Quietly Pulls Article Blaming Encryption In Paris Attacks · · Score: 1

    Well in reality it's not news that Daesh uses telegram and has setup telegram channels. Even Greenwald at The Intercept has discovered as much and Anonymous did say they infiltrated some of their Telegram channels so hardly news.

  5. Re:That's special... on Proof-of-Concept Ransomware Affects Macs (vice.com) · · Score: 1, Insightful

    what you are deliberately leaving out is that OS X has a fraction of the marketshare of windows and that is the main reason.

    Sounds like you've been swallowing the fox/talk-radio/daily caller propoganda echo chamber a little too much. HOw about getting some fresh air.

    While I may agree with some of your post, What you smell is Airline Pilots Assoc. lobbying government to regulate them. Lets keep our eye on the ball here and not go off into the weeds shall we? CNN and FOX sensationalizing Airplane "close calls" Police complainging about drones "almost taking out" their choppers and again sensationalized by CNN/FOX et al and this is what you get. It has nothing with 'OMG the gubmint don't want the people to be informed by drones"

    No! Their workers can go get a fucking education and get a job that pays them a living wage just like I did. When i first came to this country I worked 3 jobs (BK in the afternoons at 3.65/hr, back when minimum wage was 3.25/hr, McD's opening in the morning at 4.25/hr, and washing cars on the weekend) and put myself through school at night while working those 3 jobs because I made the determination at that time that I wasn't going to come all the way to America to be making anywhere near minimum wage when i'm 40
