It's so appalling to me to see such brazen advocacy for read only computing. This is such a teenie tny narrow little window of computing. Nothing should be consigned to sch irrelevances.
- mikewarot 3y agoBack in the read-only OS days, we had a crude, but extremely effective capability system. I'm not asking for a return to 1985, but I do want things to be as safe now as they were back then. While there are places for things to hide in hardware now that didn't exist back then, the operating system models haven't been updated in 40 years, in terms of the use of the users authority. It's equivalent to handing your wallet to the cashier any time you make a cash transaction... which nobody does except as a last resort in extenuating circumstances.
