If glyphosate is banned we will all starve.

There is no strong evidence of its harm yet. It may be an EDC, but we don't have the data to prove it.

The fearmongering has got to stop. Why wasn't Bayer/Monsanto allowed to provide expert witness testimony? Are we going to continue to throw scientific methods out the window?

What are they? I've certainly never heard of them or used them. Are they used in production or are they toys?

DHCP: isc-dhcp or dnsmasq

DNS recursor: dnsmasq, unbound, bind, djb's dnscache, maradns

None of these are written in memory safe languages, but they're the only ones I would trust because they have YEARS of testing and getting the RFCs right.

Vendor? This is open source software. It's not proprietary. There is no "vendor".

The reason these devices are cheap/affordable is because of the open source community. The reason the internet has made it to this current state is because of the open source community. If you want the internet to be better and safer you have to roll up your shirt sleeves and contribute in any way you can.

The problems you complain about in the African American communities can be traced back nearly 100 years to when we created these African American communities.

The Reconstruction era following the Civil War saw African Americans distribute themselves across the entire country. We have census data to prove this. They lived and worked in every county and nearly every city. They owned homes and they worked hard for their living. Now 15 years earlier whites were pissed off at the Chinese for taking railroad jobs so they violently expelled them from their homes and jobs causing them to aggregate into cities which now have Chinatowns. This was considered socially acceptable because they were mostly illegal immigrants.

After those 15 years had passed whites started blaming blacks for their problems, the economy, etc and with the rise of the KKK into powerful cultural force and worming their way into politics unchallenged by the extremely racist Presidents Harding and Coolidge, the whites were emboldened to do the same to blacks. The whites expelled them from entire classes of jobs. They were lynched, their houses burned, and they were run out of towns. Municipalities created ordinances to prevent any blacks from living there to "protect their culture and way of life". The African Americans congregated in large cities encompassing entire neighborhoods/districts and that's where they stayed because whites were too afraid to go on their violent rampages where they may be outnumbered. This behavior however was largely absent in the old South.

In 1921 in Tulsa OK whites went on a rampage to eradicate blacks from their city. They even took airplanes and dropped dynamite on their communities. It's the only recorded air raid on lower 48 US soil. The whites failed as there were too many. The black community persisted there and still exists.

Whites caused this problem. They forced them to huddle together in ghettos. They kept them poor by taking away from their jobs and creating unions that wouldn't permit their membership (fun fact: blacks were allowed in the NFL until 1933).

This is the result 100 years later. Stop rewriting history. Read a book.

I don't think they've ever released code with version history, so it would provide little benefit other than a famliar UX.

Of course I'm talking about the first amendment, the only protection of free speech that exists in the USA. Any time someone brings up free speech and it's involving non-government entitites is just kidding themselves that they believe they have a "right" to express their views however they want.
