Just another reason to delete your reddit account with regularity. I've lost count of how many accounts I've been through now.

I've never run AV software on any of my Mac computers or any of my Linux PCs. There's no need. I will never get a Mac or Linux virus. I'm vehemently against running AV software on Linux at the enterprise level, too. The be

How on earth is this a criminal offense? Copyright law should never, ever be that powerful.

It's a real shame, because HFS is an absolute abomination. Apple will remain without a reliable, full-featured filesystem for another decade, it seems.

For one thing, it breaks nearly every audio application (Serato, Ableton, etc.)

I am getting progressively more fed up with Apple with every new iteration of OS X, but unfortunately, none of the things I need to run will work on Linux yet. Hopefully that changes, because I don't know how much longer I can hold ou

Democracy these days seems to be more and more illusory. I'm willing to bet these same MPs will help make the IP Bill become law, anyway.

I guess people will just have a hard time getting a response out of me if they try and contact me via Facebook message. The Messenger app will never touch my phone.

Wow. I knew there was a reason I've always done all my work browsing via a tethered 4g connection and an SSH proxy.

Another great tool is the Aegis Win7/8 cleanup kit. It'll uninstall all of the Win10 nagware that seems to make it into every OS update. It also blocks a lot of the MS phone-home hosts and removes a bunch of other spyware Micros
