One of the first posts I saw was the N word over and over

The content you’ve linked really does a good job at showing how completely decentralized P2P social media is a terrible, terrible idea.

Then you can’t use passkeys!

Ah yes I forgot that’s how things work- if anyone writes a report on something trivial, all non-trivial issues cease to be.

Really we should be thanking journalists, we wouldn’t have world peace if they didn’t write articles like this.

Well the main argument of the article is that they physically fall apart quickly, and are difficult (or impossible without fabrication skills) to repair

It’s completely asinine to make some observation of our material conditions and declare that we’re “hard wired” to act a certain way

Not everyone, not if you have an eye for identifying discount grocery stores with clearly grey market goods!

I thought you were saying that Marxism-Leninism suffers from naivety of pure math and I was really twisting my brain working that one out

if you read the mailing list, you know there’s a lot of reasons. Linus hates out of tree and closed modules for quite a number of reasons- but in this specific context it seems the most relevant.

Don’t…read a book by its cover, my friend. Her is not particularly about the gender expression of the robot.

Nope- that generally only applies if you’re a celebrity; or if otherwise your job is your image.

The cops will lose this.

That’s exactly why they want you to do it with them though- so they can make you do it too their standards.

You’re practically not supposed to to build external modules. It’s supported to only the most minimal degree- Linus, and the Linux project, WANT you to build things in.

And as everyone else has told you, this is so that support for hardware is in Linux and in distros BEFORE users have to taint their kernels and create crazy bugs kernel devs have to deal with.

I would love to make a bet with you, and I'd be willing to, but I really don't think I'll get to collect.

F-Droid is lawful good, Cydia was chaotic good

You can, and should, build things in public.

EDIT: I just don’t trust promises for things to be open source. Notch said Minecraft would be open source, and look where that went. A promise let’s you skip out on releasing the code if it turns out to be a convenient or profitable options.

> System call filtering isn't a sandbox. It provides a clearly defined mechanism for minimizing the exposed kernel surface. It is meant to be a tool for sandbox developers to use. Beyond that, policy for logical behavior and information flow should be managed with a combination of other system hardening techniques and, potentially, an LSM of your choosing

They aren’t (and do not) require any privleged system calls, whatsoever.

If you can actually exploit a system call, neither a MAC based approach or a pledge will help.

You don’t understand namespaces, there are no mechanisms, or root specific mechanisms, you could use to elevate a namespace.

You don’t get any kind of god powers like kernel memory access, if you don’t have access to the system call you can’t debug.

Like I don’t understand how to explain to you that SELinux locks down system calls in an identical way conceptually.

Most medicine is efficacious long after it’s use by date

The scientific consensus is that children need more sleep than theyre getting, and that waking up later is healthier. I assume this problem is the same in most parts of the world.

I can’t see myself needing a CPU upgrade for a long time. I used Ivy Bridge for a decade, and my Ryzen is far far more powerful.

Right now the only compute upgrade I need is a GPU and I think that applies to a lot of people.

My suspicion is that iTunes for PC won’t even show listings for DRM protected podcasts, which is why you can’t find it.

I do love it but please add L/R buttons for the touch controls!

Sure Bjarne, you’re right, if you follow best practices- use static analyzer- special compiler time options. If we research and develop, we can make a safe C++.

But if you wanna write safe code, from scratch, because you don’t want to recycle your dangerous old C++ codebase; then why would you write that new code in C++ when rust is ready and here to do it?

You are making your own assumptions about what Mastodon is and you’re mad that you’re wrong.

“Federated twitter” does not imply any of the things you think it does.

Twitter has moderation. Federated twitter has moderation. Twitter is a platform focused on communities. Federated twitter is even more focused on communities.

Twitter is run by faceless nobodies and Elon Musk. Mastodon is run by Eugen if you join his instance, or your friends if you join their instance.

In NO WAY does federation imply

1) That it’s like email

2) Less moderation

3) Privacy

4) No politics

5) Any of the other weird shit you assumed

The only single thing federation implies is that the servers are run by independent operators.

They weren’t following the tesla, it moved into their lane.

The tesla crash in question happened on a freeway, in california where stopping on the freeway is illegal.

It was also an unsafe lane change which caused the pile up, not just the braking.
