it turns out, civilization works because most of us are civilized.

So they compromise everyone's privacy for nothing?

This pretty much sounds like my networks class final project.

What if you are Albert Einstein?

Hey! just like my ancestors!

Just a couple of loose thoughts on this:

-The permissions that pushbullet needed originally where a bit overaching.

-We never knew which was the offending one.

-Reading the original article it crossed my mind that some of the permissions the extension asked could be used for marketing (I'm not implying that they were used for that), and maybe google just didn't wanted extension developers to have a cut on that.

-I really don't like how this marketplaces have made big companies gatekeepers for market share.

Google is always thinking on human prosperity, for a small subset of humans, of course.

This is great, I'm reading the heavily commented linux kernel source code and I was wondering how much can be done in the boot sector (other than call a more sophisticated boot loader) kudos!

Is kinda frightening that this doesn't get any more discussion here, because it means that the people that get the news here (developers, it staff or at least technical savvy users) aren't really concerned about the points he raises, even though they are very important in today's world.

This, everyone is complaining on how bad desktop OSes are now but even windows is great now, compared to mobile devices, desktop is heaven.

Really? I run Raspbian, Windows and FreeBSD on my home on different machines for different purposes, and though all three have their weaknesses, they are much better than they were two decades ago.

This looks a little unfair to 2000's Linux fanboys (which of course included me): The well maintained, comprehensive, tested list of software, mirrors and checksums that Debian had and inspired other distros to emulate were a godsend compared to downloading a code tar file and hunt dependencies manually (when not modifying code yourself), you were always free to use other channels, but other channels were just usually worst; all other points seem to have similar nuances, from a user point of view situation is similar but is actually a real problem out of scope of developers (Linux) vs. Apple just being jerks.

Not making a point, just stating that this method was how they got the golden state killer.

My bet is that, like most mammals, by becoming an adult.

So that's why TeX needs to be Turing complete.

Is very sad to read through the comments and find only a bunch of excuses, you claim being rational people: there is a problem, the solution is clear as day, what are you going to do?

Quote a single paleontologist.

The only way consumers have to impact on production of a commodity is our purchasing habits, is not weak, vegans are causing havoc on the diary industry.

Yeah, survival is more important that you having comfort food.

As I was reading it I was thinking "is it even legal to have this many misconceptions about human history?"

Avocado is a perfectly North American plant.

Alas that difference is the only thing that will actually matter; a curious enough kid will find a venue to circumvent restriction (friend's house, Internet cafe)

Yes it does,from the abstract of the original article: "We show that in-plane magnetic-field-assisted spectroscopy allows extraction of the in-plane orientation and full 3D size parameters of the quantum mechanical orbitals of a single electron GaAs lateral quantum dot with subnanometer precision."

That's what you are supposed to do, isn't? I think most (all?) car clutches are dry, so that means that not going to neutral at a stop would eat your clutch in a few months.

Baby don't hurt me...

100% on the same boat as the opening statment, but he lost me at "systemd".

"Cause non of them can stop the time"

First OpenBSD and then this, Canada is like the promised land for security minded people!
