Sure. Trust. But shell script at least gives easy means to have a glimpse what is it going to do. As legitimate websites of software have been breached to serve infected packages (like CCleaner[1]) or otherwise fraudulent content (even kern

Hah, it is quite surreal what kind of scripts are asked to be curled and piped to a shell. And some users do eithout hesitation, because some website asked them to. Hopefully this pipe to sudo shell joke works as an eye opener to some.

No. This wasn't an article about one person making piracy possible. It told a story of few individuals who, on their behalf, brought the music available to the scene. And how the music got from scene's inner circles to the public.

I'd say this made up quote started with constructive criticism and what ever came after that could be ignored. Was it necessary? No.

I think hounding and insulting Linus does comes at least a bit from self protection. I can just assume the amount of wacky ideas he might get on daily basis, that would have little or no value in the product. Being aggressive about low qual

The Linux kernel development culture has always been like this, so it is a bit strange that foul language using bunch of developers turning out to be foul language using bunch of developers is a shock for someone. It suits for some and sure

And for the last mile: Moving the downloaded goods from Fast Internet Place (as in the computer class of the school) to Slow Internet Place (home with V.34 only connection). And to send them via snail mail between swapper friends.

The other thing is privacy. I don't want to give every service a "full access" into my phone. At least I have a feeling, that my privacy is in better hands, if I access services using up-to-date mobile browser (or Tinfoil for

How do you mean meaningless? What do you do with a "good" IM app, if your loved ones aren't using it? The most of the relatives and friends already have WhatsApp installed and are using it. Can't contact them with Telegr

Because you can reach your friends and loved ones with WA. It is quite simple. You can make a better IM with fewer people, when you don't have bloat like stickers market and celebrity chats. And don't try to push people to buy tho

The problem with combining smaller towns in Finland has been, that the now redundant workforce in each town has been given a long period of dismissal protection. Five years has been quite common. And in Kuopio some people gained even 15 yea

This was the first time I read Navis' comments about Moroder ripoff case. I wish ASD got well compensated. It is interesting to read, that Navis (or ASD) won't be available for third parties (as in music videos.) And he has no cur
