As someone who speaks both languages fluently, it doesn't bother me at all. The iconography could use some tweaking, but this false sense of being offended is ridiculous.

since you are handing your data to a third party, there is no reasonable expectation of privacy

I disagree with that argument. Just because I place information with a third party doesn't mean I shouldn't have an expectation of privacy. People used to have a level of discretion and "minding ones' own business".

I've experienced this before at the federal level. They're corrupt. All of them either are themselves corrupt, or complicit in the knowledge of it.

The Nothing was a great enemy to Atreyu.

No, but they do have a law about "burglary tools" that can include bolt cutters. That's pretty ridiculous if you ask me.

Colour me a cynic, but I doubt this will curb their activities.

Links, perhaps...

Docker is a solution looking for a problem.

I'm going to step out on a ledge here, but those that are happy with it really don't understand linux or much of how it works beyond editing a few confs. None of which ever touch systemd

Redhat used to be good before they forked off the desktop OS into Fedora. They went downhill in my eyes quickly after that.

Good. Systemd can die. Debian should never have started using them, too.

Because it's really hard to type "?" or "help" into a command prompt?

Please. It's not difficult to do at all. No one needs a GUI, it just makes it easier for "mom n pop" to do their thing.

I, and many others, prefer sysvinit over systemd, which I consider overly bloaty and not in-line with the unix philosophy of 'do one thing and do it well'. It's far too involved in the overall systems where, now, some desktop environments require it? That's absolute crap.

I think this is great news.

"Apple has changed its policy regarding permissions required to build and run apps on devices. Until now, Apple required users to pay $99/year to become a member of Apple’s Developer Program in order to run code on physical iPhone and iPads. As part of the new Developer Program, this is no longer required. Apps can be tested on devices, no purchase necessary."
