Vague on purpose. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING claiming the DNC email (and more importantly the PODESTA emails) were "hacked" can be summed up in three words.

"According to Crowdstrike..."

That's it. No one else did any investigation, just Crowdstrike. The same underhanded, dishonest company that LulzSec and Anonymous felt the needs to expose time and time again for their fraudulent ways. People who have no problem lying or framing people.

The fact that censoring the left is shocking, but censoring the right is heroic tells us everything we need to know about the world in 2019. It is also exactly why people vote for Trump, Johnson, Bolsonaro, etc., etc...

Yet we are still somehow free to publish or post articles such as these without being arrested, tortured, interrogated, electrocuted, and having our heads locked in a rage cage. Perhaps the author is exaggerating just a bit.

More “let’s hate on Microsoft because it’s trendy” bandwagoneers. I guess the 25 year old vulnerability in bash was not a bad thing, eh? Or scp’s 35 year old vuln did not affect anyone? Come on, people. Stop acting like Microsoft is the only vendor worth criticizing

"But SPARC and Solaris are basically dead"

This is not an accurate statement. Oracle is still actively developing Solaris 11.4 and releasing regular updates. They plan to support Solaris and SPARC systems to at least 2034. This does not sound very dead to me.

"Redistribution of resources that will improve both the well-beings and the productivities of the vast majority of people. " ... Um, has this guy ever had a conversation with an average Joe from China? Me thinks not, based on this statement.

Automatic updates can be disabled with 2 clicks of a mouse. That's it, 2. I can't believe we are still in a culture that only hates Microsoft while pretending that Apple, Alphabet, Ubuntu, and others don't practice the same questionable behavior on a daily basis. This article and the so-called study are narrowminded garbage.

Every time someone says 'read the manual', I weep for humanity.

When I open most manuals pages I may as well be reading 'ᐅᒥᐊᕐᔫᑉ ᐳᓪᓕᓕᒫᐸᒐ ᑕᑦᑕᕐᓂᖅ ᐊᒻᒪᔭᖅ'

It does nothing for me. I am seldom any smarter afterward.

These people don't understand there are different brain types, and only ~25% are read/write brain types.

Couple that with the fact that many in technology write in a broken, sterile form of English that any grammar correctly immediately flags as wrong.

No, the 'RTFM manual' people are typically extremely left-brained, analytical, black/white people who have no ability to see from others' point of, and often little desire to do so.
