As long as the Snap store doesn’t allow for arbitrary repos like flathub and is limited to only those apps Canonical have blessed to be present on their store (assuming of course you haven’t forked over tens of thousands of dollars to them

For the longest time many, if not most Linux distros, used a bunch of shell scripts for init. And many Linux users whined for many years after that mess was replaced by systemd and many still do.

You most likely will be punished more severely by the law for denting a car with your rock than a driver would be for killing you with their car as long as they were not drinking or ran away from the scene of the crime.

They hired a lot of admins because that’s how they make money? If you’re President heading a department of 10,000 vs a department of 5,000 it’s much easier to justify doubling your salary relative to what you were earning just a few years a

The political aspect is obviously not true relative to the past. The post WW, Cold War era was marked by the federal government, senators and intelligence agencies literally maintaining lists of “communists” that were blackballed almost ent

Have you used powershell? Of course it’s available on all OSes right now, but Windows has had incredible programmability (not comparable to Linux, but superior to MacOS), and since Powershell probably has a much more powerful scripting stor

Frankly those are trips that were disclosed and Thomas’s trips weren’t. That’s one of the biggest problems with what Thomas did (and shows that he knew what he did wouldn’t pass muster). Of course, that’s assuming you’re not one of the peop

I suspect there’s a lot of gray areas and I suspect justices of all stripes have tripped over the gray area multiple times. But I think all the justices can see what Thomas was doing was pretty awful and I doubt any of the other justices, e

I don’t think this has any impact on the broader question of judicial vs constitutional supremacy. I think this simply tries to address the fact that some of the justices have been ridiculously corrupt. I mean, think about it, irrespective

Criticizing Gnome and KDE is not the same as criticizing the German effort to fund open source SW projects. Yeah, the criticism of the effort absolutely seems misplaced. Even the criticism of the money going to Gnome seems misplaced unless

A lot of people seem to believe that, which is completely nonsensical. As someone who runs a tiny hyper-local non profit (we take in a few thousand $s a year), running a non profit requires as much, if not more, work than running a for prof

There you go proving that it’s not just that many Linux users have a bad design sensibility, but worse, they will defend bad design as good design. Not only do you defend it, even your defense proves that Comic Sans is a bad design, because

Or more relevant to this, Apple wanted to retain the employee that had been working for them for 3-5 years instead of replacing them with a completely new hire because of bureaucratic legalese. The PERM application was almost certainly subm

I think the donations part of it isn’t even that important. If you think about how legislation does (and can) work, lawmakers, even if they were the most gifted people on the planet, obviously are not experts on everything. As a result they

There is no other company you’d say that about. Steve Jobs and Tim Cook was/is Apple’s CEOs. No one praises or criticizes the chairman of Apple or its CTO for the company’s direction or vision. Most people wouldn’t even be able to name
