Am I the only person that finds it odd that a self-professed throwaway account is anonymously attempting to speak for RC?

I think that means you're using SO as a tool..?

> Again, I’m not saying that systemd is perfect but that most of the complaints tend not to acknowledge the many problems it solved It solved nothing but the problems made up to justify its existence. And the ones those faux solutions c

The conventions "Do one thing and do it well", and "Don't break the user experience" are not threadbare or shabby. Not UNIX nor its derivatives did spring fully formed from the foreheads of K̶n̶u̶t̶h̶ Thompson or R

Just following up to point out the subsequent publication of the existence of a report by US intelligence services indicating a massive cover-up of actual SARS-CoV-2 involvement statistics for Wuhan and across all of mainland China. I submi

These are all countries with aggressive health programs developed in the aftermath of SARS and honed by H1N1. You're comparing apples and oranges not only in terms of border controls limiting ingress after recognition, but also SARS-C

Don't assume the data going into this model has anything to do with reality. There's a very, very good reason that the China data almost perfectly fits a curve. That's because they used a quadratic equation to generate the

Sort of. But no snapshots. Wanna use LVM for snapshots? 33% performance hit for the entire LV per snapshot, by implementation. ZFS? ~1% hit. I've never been able to see any difference at the workloads I run, whereas with LVM it was

Again with comparing apples and basketballs. There are alternatives to Google search. I used them before Google existed. I still use them today, when I want to. I have the choice , which is exactly the difference between the telco monop

You never used the old long-distance telephone system, did you? The only thing that was gold plated were the executive bathrooms at AT&T.

And what % of people that actually have alternatives like FiOS (unlike me) don't subscribe to comcast? Saying 50% of subscribers in Comcast's footprint is prevaricating about the bush AF. Why, you ask? If 50% of potential Com

I have comcast service in one of the most dense urban environments in the US. I have no alternative. I am being bled dry because there is no competition of similar service. Please, if you're going to compare things at least stick to f

I find interesting that all these analyses of transportation modes generally fail to take into account the bootstrap and maintenance cost of the infrastructure. Roads are absolutely awful in terms of carbon cost, why isn't there more

Whataboutism is escapist, used to sow discord, and as such is a method of division commonly used to attempt the derailment [ha] of an otherwise useful discussion.

I take issue with your hypothesis. Tablets and chromebooks have already been around for several years. Why do I still use a desktop for work? Why don't I just ssh everywhere from my eyepad? Because they suck at making me productive.
