I find plenty A to C and C to C cables at the supermarkets these days. They also have started showing up with things which take rechargeable batteries and just assume you have someplace to plug in a type C, which these days is fairly reasonable. For most phones it's perfectly safe to use a $4 cable, they are only drawing a few tens of watts anyway.

I'm gonna go ahead and answer you seriously, because why not? The answer is sustainability. Believing everyone should be entitled to the requirements for survival (e.g. food, clothes, shelter, medical care) as well as education (most people disagree only about how much) is different from believing that everyone should get everything they want. For example, you could believe that without working, you shouldn't be able to own much. Instead of handing people a bunch of money, you'd provide them with housing and food, etc.

But it's actually not sensible to do it that way, because if you give people money, they spend it and you tax it, and then they spend it again and you tax it again, and you get it all back eventually but in the process it induces a lot of work. And isn't work what you want done? So yes, of course you hand people money. And then instead of handing them food and necessities, people just go buy those things from this fearsomely efficient crap production machine we call capitalism, and the wheels keep on turning until we deplete our natural resources and/or destroy our biosphere with industry... at least, if the road we're on now continued. But that's not inevitable, it's literally only because we're continuing to allow big oil and friends to decide where we get our energy, how we're going to transport people and goods and so on.

Nonetheless, there were organizations which did drop them after their big no input validation fuckup.

What I'd like to see is a full Linux-based ARM setup with a fast CPU and a Mega2560-like controller on the side, with interprocessor communication channels designed to support message passing between one or more threads in the Linux app and code running on the 2560, i.e. the Mega's address and data bus would have to exposed externally and they would have to share some RAM.

But maybe that's just me.

Clownstroke is not required for compliance, there are other tools which do what it does.

The timing of an attack ad is good, but people have short memories, so the timing of THIS ad is crap. They should have released an ad like this within a couple of weeks of when clownstroke failed.

The failures on Linux could be repaired remotely, unlike the infamous failure that took down all of those windows machines. Not surprised you're trying to equate the failures, though.

Apple sells the devices to humans who then own them.

We do not need more houses. We need to seize them from those keeping them empty and put people in them.

Endless growth is called cancer.

There is no planet b.

We haven't developed space enough to move industry there.

Do the math, instead of meth

"A free and completely voluntarist market is the only real measure of value"

So the only real value is in libertarian fantasies?

Can't wait for it all to crash and you to lose your smugness with your shitcoins

Your not being intelligent enough to understand what's wrong with systemd jibes with your being too cowardly to not post such a shit opinion anonymously

To be fair, I mostly am as well, just with my cynic hat firmly in place. :-D

Dumb cope. They could convert local accounts to network accounts if a user tries to use a feature which requires them.
