Facebook wants you to feel its a intrinsic part of your life, but in reality its not. Your brain fools you. What you dont know about, you wont miss. For me that 90% garbage on Facebook is not incentive to give in to the feelings of missing

Once Facebook changed their algorithm that hid people I didn't communicate with regularly further down my feed, in favor of the few that I did being in my face more, I have to say, I lost interest. So, about 4 or 5 years ago I quit Fac

One has to wonder if every car is electric or Hybrid gas/electric, where we will mine the ingredients to make all these batteries? Theres only so much of it to go around apparently.

I'm replying to myself because the original comment I was replying to was flagged, as it mentioned RH employees down votings. Its the little things isnt it.

Is this how you would fund the military and healthcare?? with property and gasoline taxes? how amusing. Excessive tax is a burden, fair enough. But "Tax is theft" fetishism is just a lack of the reality of how civilization happens

I think, outside of Hollywood. The Tech industry in general is one of the most ageist.

Yea, I feel the cognitive decline is a kind of an excuse, to mask the expense of experienced programmers. Only in the tech industry is this an issue. No one would complain about a 63yo brain surgeon, who according to some IT HR people would

The problem with Old Programmers, is not their work. Thats solid. Its the fact that they have mortgages, pensions, health issues, etc. This costs employers money. And employers HATE giving money because they feel like since you are getting

What systemD has turned in to, is FAR out of scope, for what RH probably gave encouragement for. This will boomerang back some day.

Its not hostility... Its how do you think your streets, and roads, and all the other things that created your modern society are paid for. Anti Tax is a sham. You want to just avail of everything free and not chip in for it? Would you rathe

You are right, But I imagine thats by lobbyist design. If there was the will to investigate, it would happen easily. Its odd how Tech which changes my browser search gets heavy regulation EU wide, but not fiscal items, where a currency is s

Exactly. Thats my point. Its not beholden to me. But alters what I see, based on what fulfills their interest, not what fulfills mine.

Just because YOU cant figure out how it works, does not mean its not possible my friend. But I will say, that when you have a backdoor, and suddenly that backdoor stop providing intel/data/whatever, its usually a good indicator.

I hate to point out that LOTS of Linux Distros did not and do not have Red Hats finances. People have been contributing to it for nearly 20 years just fine. Not sure how you could even think that people need Red Hats finances to create some

Is anyone else fed up of systemd yet? Increasingly Jack of all trades, master of none. Can we have something new instead? Or maybe Red Hat can put Pottering back in his holster? I'm sick of Linux Servers I use, being "improved&quo

@willlstrafach, Nothing you have said convinces me the commentator you are replying to is wrong. Especially since an NSL would prevent ANYONE who detected anything from speaking about it. Updates that tweak code to introduce vulnerabilitie

What is annoying about this all, is that the EU picks on tech companies a lot. They seem to do absolutely NOTHING about the financial houses, that got away with an awful lot during the greatest financial crisis the world has ever seen, as a

I feel it does benefit the consumer. You are assuming that google is going to show me the best search results etc for my query, while in reality they are displaying what suits them and their advertiser better. Which is great for google, not

Stuxnet as an entity, was just the method to deliver different payloads right? I'm not exactly convinced if id ever class that as a weapon over a clever hack. I mean, is the ability to read and find holes in code, a weapon? Was it a we

Good for the CIA having skills and tools like this. These are needed. But is hacking really a "weapon"? I think that hacking is a technical capability or tool, but I wouldn't call it a weapon. The flip side of this is that we

As new facts emerge, and things develop, so does the story. I mean, should the press only be allowed to do a power point presentation, once, for posterity when a story breaks and then never revisit it? I'm failing to see what your grip
