Of course not. I was not making the claim it was perfect. Merely that only Apple goes to the lengths they do to try to make perfect things. You think samsung and google are running around studying paintings to try and understand the nuanc

Again, they already had elevated or root privs. If you've already got root privs nothing will save you.

This article here is the reason why Apple is killing others it competes with. No one else goes to these lengths to perfect some feature. They just don't care. It's the reason the iPhone 8 is also years ahead of android phones in s

I don't doubt your claim, but what terrifies me about this if it's true is how willing companies are to give up all their data, security, etc for Google and company to mine, sell, etc. I would never do that. I just don't get

God I hope so. The last time I touched HP/UX was 2001. I still have nightmares. It's a wretched UNIX. It was running veritas, another wonderful pos software.

Actually it hasn't been done before. That CVE required elevated privelages on the host already. They didn't break out of a jail.

by X86BSD 9y ago
I have enough confidence in FreeBSD jails to not worry about that. If I found someone who could actually break out of a jail I would at the least buy them dinner anywhere, their choice. You can't modify a running kernel by direct acces

That would be pretty cool!

I don't. When I was setting this up I didn't find any guides or blogs about doing this so I thought it was not of interest to anyone. So I just went about implementing it a piece at a time. Installing pam_jail, then getting /

I've been using something similar for a while now. I use pam_jail on freebsd to drop the ankle biters using common ssh login attempts like test, ubuntu, oracle etc into a FreeBSD jail where I watch what the do and get a copy of all the

As do the BSDs. That's what vendors need is stability regarding drivers.

Not every new OS does. The ones that do are using the GNU stack, at least initially because they are there and it saves time. Even then down the road some purge GNU from their OS in favor of better utils, more liberal licensed code, etc.

by X86BSD 9y ago
No more so than the BSD/MIT/Apache licenses. The BSD license predates the GPL. And has none of the dead weight or baggage.

If I logged on to a UNIX box, and ifconfig was not there I would install a real UNIX. Seriously I am not going to hunt down or figure out why basic UNIX tools, interfaces, or APIs are not there. I'm just going to write the OS off as a

Good riddance. I got so tired of my Spotify account being hacked that this last time recently I just said enough and moved to Apple Music. I liked spotify's interface better but their security sucks and they can't seem to stop use

I pay for HBO Go on Apple TV. I really like HBOs interface. It's very simple. Clean.

Solaris is dead. Maybe you didn't get the memo? And your comment has absolutely nothing to do with Linux or the Linux community.
109.
by X86BSD 9y ago
What you ask is what many outside the Linux community are so annoyed and frustrated with. The Linux communities complete inability to look outside their echo chamber. Constantly reinventing the wheel poorly and in a broken screw portability

Everyone can walk to anything they need. I've never been to a city in this country that didn't have a grocery store, a radio shack, or any store of items I might need . So again that's great you enjoy walking. I don't f

I do not doubt that at all. They only left India once they stole everything of value. Unfortunately I know only about the diamond. But I believe you that there is much more than just that.

You said that PG had no clustering solutions, I showed you there were. Some of them may require more work than others but there ARE clustering options none the less for PG. It's inaccurate to say there are none.

The new street car is awesome! especially for visitors. And it's free. It was well worth the money and they have plans to expand it to the northland as well. If we could get it to run from KCI to the plaza it would be a huge boon. Bike

You just described Kansas City, actually that fits a good chunk of the Midwest. I'll take my wide open space and rolling hills to the insane cost of a shoebox to live in, in California anyday.

But this is the problem everywhere. In the states that's the reason outsourcing is such a huge boner for companies. They refuse to pay the market rate for Americans who will not work six jobs in IT for the pay of one. So they then clai

I believe they have a certain large diamond as well they stole from India and they would like it back.

This is the reason Syria was destabilized by the US. Natural gas to Europe. Period. This is not about Assad, the US is simply demonizing him to justify their destruction of another secular soverign country. Russia supplies Europe with almos
