Forty bucks lets you turn pages on a non-paper device. What a world we live in.

Let's be more specific about how and why this could happen? What scenarios could lead to the total destruction of mankind?

It wasn't 7 years to find the right spot. It was 7 years to realize Texas isn't as accommodating as he hoped, and he can buy off a broke state cheaper than a rich state. Of course, finding enough people to move to the Texan Everglades was easy compared to finding enough who will live in the bayous to run his steel penis rocket facilities.

Doesn't seem fair, does it...

I'm still salty about the switch to SystemD in the first place. I grew up on the simplicity of Linux's three tenets:

1. Everything is a file
2. Everything should be kept as simple and discreet as possible
3. Text (ASCII) based files wherever possible for configs and logs

SystemD came along and just blew all three of those out of the water and made it look and act more like Windows with its complications. And now it's pushing non-needed items like Birthdate into the core functions.

Is it wrong to feel okay with Russia complaining about hacking for a change?

Which four words are we supposed to remember?

A family member works for law enforcement in the camera and data department, and uses Flock cameras all the time, for all kinds of crime. They have proved very useful and have improved the departments efficiency tremendously.

All access to the software is logged, and every access has to be reported and attached to investigations.

I personally do not want a surveillance state, but it seems silly to ignore technology that improves law enforcement and saves money at the same time. As long as strict controls are in place, which do not allow abuse, and it remains within the strict uses outlined by law, why not?

Sadly, you're exactly right. Things were pretty cool when engineers ran Google. Now the MBA's have taken over, and it's no longer the "disruptor". It's the "establishment".

A news aggregator should write blurbs like a news site, and not assume every reader knows what every proper noun is. Plex, an animal husbandry fanservice anime sharing company, ...

Namecheap actually shut off access to my cpanel for a few hours, while they applied "mitigations". I hope it's enough.
