Well I see a lot of people already moving away from Linux due to the systemd fiasco. This gives people options so that;'s good.

I've the same. If I get a popup or an overlay I simply close the tab whatever was on it. Without even thinking. If I notice an advert I think scumbag company, how can they think that interrupting what I am here for is more likely t

Couldn't agree with most of this more. HTTP/2.0 seems to be me to be an entirely pointless set of unwanted complications and agendas disguised as technical improvements.

I feel there is probably a little bit of truth to this, but not enough to make a huge difference. Maybe it will help you lose weight a bit faster in combination with eating less, excercise more etc.

Not sure how much I agree with this. Turned down heating anyway :)

So which browser can we use instead when they start this dumb idea?

very good. Except "now has a required minimum of 25 (paid) vacation days per year, no matter what country they live in." Well no. If they live in the UK for example they have a mandatory limit of 28 days not 25 because it's t

I was taking this seriously until "The new rules are especially onerous for women entrepreneurs". No, it's just the same for everyone.

I think the bigger issue would be knowing who is using it. One team might think we only have 5 people so we'll use it! And a different team in another office might think the same. Oops.

The new gmail is ok although it has absolutely no advantages over the old one so it's merely irritating they changed it just because they could. Except for the compose button over the top of my text which is really awful and I hate it

Yeah and too many times when you complain about this kind of thing you get accused of "hating change" or some such thing. No, I hate THIS change because THIS change is bad!

By reading this comment, you agree to pay me £100 if you downvote it. :P (worth a try)

Are there any symptoms that indicate that it's probably not a heart attack? I recently had "stabby" pains in my chest area and as I didn't know what it was went to urgently get checked out and it was basically muscle pai

I read the first line and I thought it was going to be a proper linux distro without all that new systemd junk. But then I saw it was for z80. Very disapointed :(

It's pretty much the same with applications and websites. The "trendy" ones seem to have fancy interfaces that are useless (I'm thinking of this trend in web page design to have vertically scrolling pages where each page

Trying to work out which linux dist to switch to. Obviously one that doesn't use systemd. So what choices do I have?

I don't necessarily agree with all of this analysis. I think the more likely reasons are that it's very easy to be against the war when you are not in power. But once you are in power it's not sufficient to be against it, you

The article appears to not answer the question. It makes claims that reheated pasta raises blood sugar more slowly, but seems to say nothing about if it's more fattening.

I don't really want to use wayland or mir. I'd rather keep using the current perfectly fine software.

by jbb555 12y ago
I couldn't agree more. If it become impossible to use linux without systemd then I won't be using linux any more.

Ah, it might make the web faster on mobile . Not very interesting.

Yeah, makes sense. I guess. But I'm more and more worried about the web "platform", it just gets more and more complex each day.

Or exceptions in many languages for error conditions that you don't want to accidentally ignore.

by jbb555 12y ago
This to me is a good example of why exceptions in modern languages are good way to handle errors. In this case the user has basically ignored the error return from fork() and the accidentally used it in kill. If fork() had thrown an excepti

Surely the only answer possible to this is we don't know because we've not been everywhere?
