"social justice" is nothing more than mob rule. Having taught in academia/higher education before moving to the private sector, these clowns use public shaming techniques to silence people of differing opinions using threats

Frankly, I don't see a problem with leaving it enabled. There will come a day when I would willingly limit the vehicles speed when my children start to drive and they'll be safer for it. Hopefully these vehicles will auto-limit s

I'm sure your contributions would be welcome in the community. I too run it for my daily driver with my own code tweaks as well. The only thing I did was remove the top bar that had the desktop switcher and clock, and left a 1px space

His constant distain for anything not GPL'd is rather off-putting, and won't be winning over anyone with the constant derision with comments like "deserve to fail", "iBad" and "iThings". Really, Stall

Your company can do that with Linux, too, if they don't deploy it outside of the organization. There's nothing prohibiting any one entity from making a million changes to any of the gnuutils or the kernel if they don't releas

No, it's not a joke and you shouldn't treat it as such. Non-technical people really shouldn't be whining that their "free service" doesn't cater to a click-and-run crowd. The source is available to the public

Developers have a nasty habit of gutting nature and tearing apart the land for a quick cheap buck. And after working for several doing their I.T. work and thus being on the "inside" of their decision making practices, I can tell y

I'm not sure why anyone uses a big-name browser on tor anymore. It's trivial to lock something like wget or lynx/links into using the tor connection and getting the same kind of results.

If they're really after you, is it really paranoia?

I thought this kind of thing was "normal" for some people on par with how many have photographic memories, or almost innate math abilities.

oh i'm still not used to the autocorrect on OS X. Thank you for correcting my error.

lost -i in the Terminal.app will do this as well. With a little grep-fu you could have yourself a good watchdog.

> the Systemd maintainers operated without regards to the community at all Don't act surprised. Those asshats stomped over a whole lot of shit and everyone acts like they're the savior of the init (and a dozen other) systems.

It's typically the undereducated that defines this popular usage trend.

If the design of the CAD software were designed around the usage of a touch screen, and I don't think one would have to be constrained to require its use. I'm not saying they'd have to use the on-screen keyboard but build the

Tablets aren't really a problem when it comes to education. It's only a shift in how we do computing vs what we do it in. They've built tablets. We (developers) need to build the software that does more than consume our time,

Like all great futuristic advances we've seen in the last two decades that REALLY put us into the "we're living in the future" category, there's a plus and negative side. I love that I can wear a watch that doubles

Why does this concern you? Mozilla, isn't as cavalier as Google as far as releases are. I remember a time in chrome's beginning it was horribly unstable but patched often. It was the lure of constant quick updates that kept a lot

I don't have an issue with them including it, but to make it impossible to remove in an easy 1,2,3 clicks like you can with regular extensions is absolutely asinine. Browsers need to be more modular in this respect but I may be the mi
