News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Actually the systemd guys looked at upstart for redhat in the beginning, but choose to rewrite it anyway. That had nothing to do with the Canonical entanglement though.

Though I dislike Unity and Mir, I think RedHats understanding of "Open" Source is a lot more disturbing.. https://lwn.net/Articles/432012

In the face on inaceptable laws and regulations it can't be helped. We can't just wipe any political discourse with this sentence.

I hear your words and all I can conclude is: What a _great_ ruling. Seriously.

Decentralization is a major thing we need right now. Also: the EU gov. agencies are very unlike the US ones in that we have a political power over them.

Well that's bad timing but really, this sort of news is a good thing. No software is perfect and now they can improve upon these findings. Password Managers are still a very valid technology. Better then Firefox/Chromes integrated plain text login stores or using the same password everywhere.

Though, IMO, a password manager which uploads all your password onto a central location with thousands upon thousands of other peoples password is just a really damn stupid idea to begin with.. Even if it's encrypted or whatever.
