The flip side is that women that behave as you depicted often get labelled with unfunny names, while it does not happen when said behaviour comes from a man. :/

I guess not everybody perceived the tone in the same way. It seemed much more neutral to me.

Not sure about that, see my reply to your original message. As for "you fundamentally can't make code released under Apache more restrictive down the road", isn't that exactly what LibreOffice (LGPLv3) people do when the

For sure the storage format should not hinder you from using grep if you want. Even with systemd you can pipe journalctl's output and use the same old regexes as its default behaviour is to be a glorified `cat` (but being able to use t

There's a good chance that you'd be reading EBCDIC logs. :) 40 years from now, you will probably be able to invoke journalctl on the system and parse the dumped output as plain text. Or call gunzip on the compressed logs, $DEITY k

Sure, on a site that uses ElasticSearch for its logs I would have no idea where to look at. I'd be more at ease with SQL, but first you need to locate the DB, figure out the schema, get the SQL dialect right. That said, I'd be far

Yes, they are moving out of the server those pieces that benefits the most from being client side (scrolling, cursor, selection) but the document rendering/editing is still done by a LibreOfficeKit process on the server. Reimplementing

I beg to differ: hacking stuff is the real essence of the hacker subculture. Being rude is completely orthogonal to hacking.

Tbh I think in the Linus case the one using a less-than-welcoming tone wasn't Sievers. :) Of course they have a strong vision, and popping up proposing something that has already been discussed to death and rejected won't be the m

Yes, it will be officially supported as systemd is simply a default, not a requirement, as defined by previous CTTE deliberations and as implemented even before them by the Debian systemd team, which has gone to great extents to make sure y

Lennart has produced some "friction" in the past but now that he's been for such a long time on the other side, getting blamed and accused of every silly thing in the world I hope it has changed his ways a bit. Truth to be to

I haven't seen any sign of systemd going in that direction, though.

But `netstat` was already broken for xinetd-started services. I get that it probably didn't affect you, but it means that `netstat` already had its shortcomings. Now that socket-activated services may see more widespread usage, hopeful

You can also encrypt N files yielding M > N blocks, to avoid much of the issues you described while still avoiding the one-large-blob concern.

That may be the case now that FLOSS is worldwide renowed and people are starting to realize that private forks are costly, but it wasn't always so. The GPL was instrumental in forcing people to behave when nobody knew what to do, and

That's the intention, but more work is needed.

Aaaand GPG signature added!

by EmanueleAina 12y ago
He probably didn't care because it's not much more than partitioning, running debootstrap, installing the few extra packages and copying config.txt and cmdline.txt. :) That said a gpg signature could be a good thing to add.

Indeed, that was the point of using bmaptool: the actual used space is about 1/10th of the whole image, weighting around 400MB, and with bmaptool you can avoid writing a lot of zeroes to the SD card. The data is more or less split like

Yep, but the point is about running real Debian, not any Debian-derived distributions like Raspbian that have been rebuilt for ARMv6. With the old Pi it was not possible because the CPU only supported the ARMv6 instruction set, while mainst

Given that the only thing that has changed is the more powerful CPU, I'd say same fun and more interesting things! ;)
