Hahahaha. Is this still the same Slashdort where Microsoft is one of the good guys? Really? And The EU is not "For the customers" it is, if anything "for the people". Many times those are customers, but they can also be employees.
And how fast you forget if you think Microsoft was good. Amazon basically crushes many other stores and abuses its emplyees (e.g. the people who work there) and facebook breaks more privacy laws than it has members.
So indeed, they could never have grown here in Europe. The sad thing is that they where allowed to do so in the US.
Because it is NOT about the consumer, it is about the people.
What they mean is that you need to ignore the majority of the information, just like the majority of the content is not available. Also that content changes. Bit like how we always have been with war with Eurasia.
At every time in history there was an overload of information. "History?" I see what I did there. Nice example. I went from one country to another in Europe. The historic facts where the same, the history lessons where not. I did not get a lot of facts in one country and I did not get them in another. Methods of education where different. The books where different. For that last one you do not even need to go to a different county. Just go to a different school or get a different teacher.
The downside of Netflix is that everybody gets the same things. That is not a good thing when you talk about education. We already have way too many people that are pushed through the schooling system as if they where sausages.
Different methods for different people is not a bad thing. To me Netflix is not a good thing as it reduces the variation, not enhances it. It dumbs it down, not enriches it.
This because Netflix operates worldwide, not just on a local level.
Nice blaming the victim there. I assume old people who call the Indian guy at "Microsoft" and pay in ITunes cards are to blame as well. And she was asking for it, because of the skirt she wore.
To me it sounds as if the companies are at fault and those are the ones who should see that the device is as safe as possible and do recalls if it is not possible to do it in any other way.
Bit like any other product on the market,. be it cars, food or anything else. It is thanks to you that legislation is lacking on the IT part of it as they are able to say "This smart IT guy tells it is the problem of the users. Probably they hold the device wrong." and nothing is done about it.
So it is nice that you are able to make a secure router. It is also clear that you have no idea about security as you are running anything else you like on it, making it less secure by default. Debian is not a router OS and the fact that it takes an hour tells also a lot.
What you made is a PC with a also some router software on it, not a router.
How? By not using monolithic kernels that support every device in creation, and stripping the kernel down to what is installed on the system -- especially with things like IOT devices. If it isn't installed, it doesn't need patched, it can't break, and it can't be exploited.
I agree. I am not a router or IoT developer. I just do a home install and when I do the Install of Debian, I like to do the not so automated install. There I am asked if I want a minimal kernel or not. All nice, but it also advices to NOT do the minimal install, as that could mean that some things might not work.
So people who have not that much knowledge are guided to use the less secure option.
I agree that people who make their money with hardware should be able to do this. I also want to point out that distro's should change the default of 'everything and the kitchen sink' as a default.
One of the things that I hate is all that is installed, even when I do not have a printer. Almost impossible not to suddenly get asked to install some HP-printer stuff, because it is needed for something else.
The same info as I give the airlines? Are you serious? I had to add a lot of things that I do not tell the airlines. From the tom op my head: Where I was going to stay. Whare I would be going. A contact person in the US. My social nulber of the countryfrom my nationality. And that is where the fun starts. I do not have one where I am born and what my passport says, because I never worked there. I have one where I work, but that is not my nationality. This is not that uncommon in Europe. Compare it to being born in one US state and living in another since you where 10.
So I called the US Embassy and as all embassies, they where useless. They basically told me after a week: Leave it blank and hope for the best.
I had contacted the embassy of my country and they where just as useless, saying where I could find the number. When I told them I did not have one, they told me the 3 month procedure of getting one once I moved back to that country.
So no, they ask a LOT more than what the airlines ask me. Those ask me my name and my credit card details. Oh, and the email adress, so they can spam me.
I STILL had to fill out the paper in the plane that I had to give at the desk, got a differnt paper that I had to give to a guy 30 feet on that just took the paper and put it in a basked. Reminded me of the time I went to Eastern Germany, although there was less hassle then.
I am not an Apple fan. Not even close. I do agree that it was the iPhone that changed the market. However that was done by marketing, not by innovation.
I travel inside Europe lot. I will take the train or rent the car, unless the distances are more than say 1000KM-1500KM. This means that I often pay more and travel longer than if I would go by plane and do so knowing that I could be somewhere faster and cheaper.
If land travel needs a sleepover, I will take the plane. Otherwise? Trains and/or (rental) cars.
Nixon did 1 thing. It was not very good or nice, but it was basically 1 thing. Trump does 1 thing per day. But at least it isn't a blowjob and he isn't black, so no problem there.
The one thing he did (most likely by accident) right is that nobody wants number 2 to become number 1.
From the customer side, it would mean not going there any more., So that means either getting more people and a bit less for the CEO, or letting the competition get bigger and you go broke.
Because the work still needs to be done. This is not "Another Brick In The Mall" game.
"likely be fixed". So can you put a number on that? 100:1 or 10.000.000:1 or even more? You are looking at the number on the left. I look at the number on the right : 1. That is all there is needed. And how do all these updates work with the unfound 0 day things that are being found?
XP is unsafe by design. You should not start with an unsafe system and then make it safe when a safe system is available.
Also: an update within the next decade? That means 15-25 years if at all. They should design it where they can update more often and sooner.
The first thing that will go will be the quality. The way the food industry is dealing with things now (Let's put some more corn sugar in it) does not make me want to wait for it. "But there will be rules" you might say. Sure and they will have been made by the companies. Because seriously, who cares about the scheeple anyway.
When they say X period cheaper, I never look at that amount. Even if it is free. The price I am going to pay is what I will pay afterwards.
The fact that they might give me an initial promotion is nice, but will not influence my decision.
Unfortunately a LOT of people look at only that. That is why so many people take a "free sample" and not read that unless they unsubscribe, they need to pay XUSD per month. It is a well known fact that people will be happy if they can buy something at 50% off, regardless if they need it and if the 50% represents the real value the item is worth. They claim to have saved 50%. Nom you did not. You spend that 50%. And even now I am sure people are already replying to defend the fact that they really saves the 50%, because they where intended to take the account anyway. To them I say: You where thinking about it and the temporary promotion made you decide to spend it, I am sure you would not have spend it if that promotion was not done.
The short answer? Google. That is the reason they got fined.
The longer answer is that they decided to do business in Europe and thus have to follow the rules in Europe. Just like e.g. can sell beer to 16 year olds in Belgium, but not to 20 year olds in the US.
You can agree or disagree with either or both laws, but that does not change anything.
The problem is that a religion is not a country. If you are afraid of a religion, you should also kick out those that are already there. You should perhaps start with closing their store. Have them wear a crescent moon on their outer clothing. Rally them up. Planes are dangerous, so put them on trains.
It is obvious that this happens. As a Linux user I now have a PC with a BIOS that tries to do everything, that starts a boot loader that tries to do everything, running a display manager that tries to do everything, so I can launch my web browser that tries to do everything, so I can load a website that tries to do everything to load ads that try to do everything.... and all I wanted to see was a puppy.
Well. If that is the mindset,why are they not using their second amendement rights to fight about everything since 2001. NSA and FBI does actual spying on the US citizens and havge admitted as much in court.
And all I see is the equivilent of a kid moaning he can't have a cookie. Sure, the kid is whining, but still no cookie and after a while you get used to the whining.
Before we begin, please listen to some personal messages. Jean has a long moustache I repeat : Jean has a long moustache Also : Aunt Emma is getting well. I repeat : Aunt Emma is getting well.

You must not have a pension plan, nor the intention to ever buy a house. Because both are about plans that far exceed 20 years.
Hahahaha. Is this still the same Slashdort where Microsoft is one of the good guys? Really? And The EU is not "For the customers" it is, if anything "for the people". Many times those are customers, but they can also be employees.

So you get a new kernel each time. I got that from the 78 times they said it. What are the advantages and what are the disadvantages?
Perhaps they where told that they work for Comcast.
The same info as I give the airlines? Are you serious? I had to add a lot of things that I do not tell the airlines. From the tom op my head:

What they did was innovate by marketing, not by innovation.
All these things already existed. And they did not actually kill flash.
I am not an Apple fan. Not even close. I do agree that it was the iPhone that changed the market. However that was done by marketing, not by innovation.
To me it feels more like two brothers and one keeps yelling, while holding his hand and shouting "Stop hitting yourself. Stop hitting yourself."
I travel inside Europe lot. I will take the train or rent the car, unless the distances are more than say 1000KM-1500KM. This means that I often pay more and travel longer than if I would go by plane and do so knowing that I could be somewhere faster and cheaper.
If land travel needs a sleepover, I will take the plane. Otherwise? Trains and/or (rental) cars.
One of the most? You mean right after white and yellow?
Nixon did 1 thing. It was not very good or nice, but it was basically 1 thing. Trump does 1 thing per day.
But at least it isn't a blowjob and he isn't black, so no problem there.

And it was not even the Lyft car, but one that looked like it.
I add /. to my daily browsing. I am the L33T hax0r known as 4Chan. (How do you do the reverse L and 7 again?)
