UserRights··on GitHub Desktop is now available
smartgit is very nice, but there are many mnore GUI clients on linux you can find very easily.
UserRights··on Kali Linux 2.0 Released
You should doublecheck this with wireshark yourself before finding yourself in a potentially bad situation. Kali is not so silent as advertised.
UserRights··on Ask HN: Best Linux sandbox?
You are distributing an outdated chromium with your demo app - this demonstrates quite clearly the problems with this approach: how to update software?

UserRights··on From a million miles away, NASA camera shows moon crossing face of Earth
It is really cool how the NASA gives us a better understanding of the universe and our place in it by publishing all these nice pictures.

However, I would like to have one easy accessible source for all the nice pictures that is daily updated and could be synchronized to a local school server e.g. with rsync. Is there one "ḧere-are-all-the-pics"-ftp server anywhere? It is quite time consuming to browse the hundreds of NASA sites and download pictures manually - instead I would like to spend that time browsing a local incoming folder to select the best pictures.

Would be a great service to the world to have easier access to these pictures.

UserRights··on Hulbee – A Safe, Smart, Innovative Search Engine
This is not a bug, you are just uninformed: a platform that allows anybody to use anybodys machine for anything is the final business model in web 2.0. Everybody in the startup world is getting crazy about this.

BTW google is doing it, Mickysoft and Apple is doing it - only difference is that they try to maintain exclusive customer access to these features, but it does not work out always.

hulbee entering the scene as an unrestricted distributed code execution platform freely available for anybody will change everything!

UserRights··on Shotcut – A free, open-source, cross-platform video editor
youtube can do this. kaltura has something, too. nice for kids and building joke videos or maybe for building your next presentation.

however, pro video files are BIG, and upload will take longer than actual editing process with usual upload rates.

More important: nobody wants to have a bloated webapp that runs in an already bloated web browser (all of them are!) and eats all your cpu power just by executing some cool javascript gui framework - you need every bit of performance for rendering.

UserRights··on Thesis, Automattic, and WordPress: A Conflict of Ideology
Is there a legal website where one can download all the premium gpl themes?
UserRights··on Show HN: Deckrank.co – Create and share rank-based polls easily
Links in menu not working.
UserRights··on Your Timeline: Revisiting the world that you’ve explored
They write:

"Your Timeline is private and visible only to you"

I would like to challenge Google to provide proof for this: make it work without needing to login anywhere and without sending data to any place.

This will be great marketing and it is heavily needed to restore trust into a US based company after it has been destroyed completely by authoritarian lunatics.

UserRights··on Show HN: Buttermilk Supply – knives from Japanese masters
WTF are random ads about webshops on HN page one?
UserRights··on Woah that is some wild postgresql
very nice, indeed.

it would be very impressive, if postgresql could generate it's own CRUD interface (select option: angular / react)

so much tedious frame-work could be just dropped.

UserRights··on Show HN: Hnwatch – Linux x64 terminal-based real-time HN watcher/reader

Do you remember that backdoor that was found in SELinux a few years ago?

The naivety of your comment is striking and reveals an exceptionally ignorant view of the world.
UserRights··on Hacking Team Uses UEFI BiOS Rootkit to Keep RCS 9 Agent in Target Systems
I did not know that this is an open source website. How did you hack this informations?
UserRights··on Rotterdam to consider trialling plastic roads
The Propaganda-Elephant in the Room: there is no such thing as "recycling plastics" - but still the word "recycling" is commonly used, even if the described process very clearly is not about recycling. Obviously, this is a downcycling process which will lead to dissolved plastic in the food chain after a few decades, so this is far away from an ecologically sustainable or clean solution, that might be acceptable for our next generations, it is plain stupid.

The solution is to reglement plastic production to a set of about max. 50 different recipes for different applications that actually can be recycled. Today we have thousands of patent-protected artificial substances called "plastic" and the plastics lobby is extremely strong in suppressing any discussion that goes into that direction.

UserRights··on Hacking Team Uses UEFI BiOS Rootkit to Keep RCS 9 Agent in Target Systems
Maybe he is against war? Against cancer? Against GMO? Maybe he is just reading the wrong websites? maybe he is writing critical comments on HN?

UserRights··on Falciani's Swissleaks – The Great Bank Data Robbery
This is not only an interesting story, it is also great design to explore! From all the story-telling hybrid web experiments I have seen over the last years I feel the arte guys and girls are very close to an optimal mix. What do you think? Enjoy!
