mircea_popescu: well, other than the part that it has infanticide, maybe you should check it out.
mircea_popescu: quite exactly mirroring the consumer computing market. "my windows computer doesn't fucking work" "switch to gentoo" "will it work then ?" "no, but maybe you like the icons better"
mircea_popescu: pretty decent part of a play or something this. "so if i become a woman will my sex work ?" "no, it still won't work" "So then ?" "well maybe you like it not working this way better."
mircea_popescu: well maybe you miss the barn of a difference between "guy who is a girl because he prefers it" and "guy who claims to be a girl so as to [...]"
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform all perversion is boring to the normally endowed.
mircea_popescu: i wonder if i could get tenure with a program on illiteracy.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform truely usia is engaged in the empirical demonstration of the ancient notion that perversity knows no bounds.
mircea_popescu: i like 69 as much as the next girl, but it never occured to me to pretend i'm a tupolev airplanewhile doing it.
mircea_popescu: i mean the entire "why do girls date assholes i have a great sense of humor she doesn't know what she's missing" beta lament is one thing
mircea_popescu: social justice warrior posing as transgender lesbian female to get cooch ?
mircea_popescu: somehow in the entire "must grow big fast" thing people omit to point out that well... you don't wanna rule over retards.
mircea_popescu: serves them right for ruling over a group dumb enough to believe that shit.
mircea_popescu: amusingly, n ceausescu was accused of this. people believed.
mircea_popescu: i don't actually keep that well indexed a list of this score
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform i think most recently it was "hey, this christian dude isn't all bad"
mircea_popescu: brendafdez turns out half the people in the google grup of "women interested in linux" are actulaly guys.
mircea_popescu: so fucking banal in its "cultural revolutionary war" rehash it's really hardly worth the mention.
mircea_popescu: the reason chinese peasants are starving is not enough socialism, dontcha know.
mircea_popescu: then they morally responsible for the cesspool turn around and accuse the pillars making sanity possible of... you know, "fish rots from the head"
mircea_popescu: meanwhile in idiot us discourse, because of all the "care" being "expended" to "protect", nobody can talk to anyone about anything, and as a result everyone hates everyone else for no reason.
mircea_popescu: anyway, it's pretty well articulated. consider the way this place works : once anything can be said, people suddenly manage to find "representatives" of groups they thought they hated quite likable. this happens on a regular basis.
mircea_popescu: lol. and this is not his employer's agenda. this is just, you know, because reasons.
mircea_popescu: "If you are a newcomer to Linux, either grow a really thick skin. Or run away, it's not a friendly place to be in." << also do not be in linux.
mircea_popescu: anyway, the ideological cleavage is pretty clear, and it will only resolve itself in time.
mircea_popescu: defunct washington post/nytimes/libertard press spawned gawker.
mircea_popescu: but i gotta appreciate the delusion. really, lennart thinks he's me ? cool.
mircea_popescu: ahaha. 1) systemd is not nor will it ever be successful. 2) systemd is a grease spot strictly because of the red hat drilling platform upstream. once that goes away, the whole set of fleas and their "successes" and "ideas" and choices and whatever also go away.
mircea_popescu: " have a thick skin (and so do most of the others involved in systemd, apparently), and I figure that plays a major role why we managed to bring systemd to success, despite all the pressure in the opposite direction. "
mircea_popescu: this incidentally is pretty true : i don't know that anyone sane would want anything to do with lennart and his horde of derps either.
mircea_popescu: o. Currently, the systemd community is fantastic, and I really hope we can keep it that way."
mircea_popescu: "My personal conclusion out of all this is mostly just that I don't want to have much to do with the worst offenders, and the communities they run. My involvement with the kernel community ended pretty much before it even started, I never post on LKML, and haven't done in years. Also, in our own project we are policying posts. We regularly put a few folks on moderation on the mailing list, and we will continue to do s
mircea_popescu: unremarkably, he's all about re-tweeting poettering on google twitter.
mircea_popescu: GNOME Display Manager (gdm) before 2.21.1 allows local users to change permissions of arbitrary directories via a symlink attack on /tmp/.X11-unix/. << lulzier one.
mircea_popescu: it's just... not designed or implemented by people with an understanding of computing.
mircea_popescu: "GNOME Shell 3.14.x before 3.14.1, when the Screen Lock feature is used, does not limit the aggregate memory consumption of all active PrtSc requests, which allows physically proximate attackers to execute arbitrary commands on an unattended workstation by making many PrtSc requests and leveraging a temporary lock outage, and the resulting temporary shell availability, caused by the Linux kernel OOM killer."
mircea_popescu: seems more like self-wankery. "here's what we'd do to mila kunis if she knew who we were or cared"
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo did qntra eat my comment or they go to moderation or what ?
mircea_popescu: it boggles my mind that one has to be "allowed" to introduce a defense.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you don't understand how the world works. people who meet us armed forces socially and people who are willing to write USG SATAN in 5yo guts, provided the 5yo was spawned by a private first class have virtually no overlap.
mircea_popescu: BingoBoingo there's a good idea somewhere in there but kinda mollase'd out.
mircea_popescu: isis is pioneering the "before you can get voice, pick a name off this list and torture their children on cam"
mircea_popescu: i suspect they just want to see if the... buoys actually float.
mircea_popescu: so earlier trinque dumps trinquette, now indiancandy1 finds true love in brendafdez...
mircea_popescu: ask not what this produces for me, ask instead how i could best serve.
mircea_popescu: lol you're too price driven. gotta be service driven to succeed, you're a woman after all.
mircea_popescu: it's supposed to be unappealing. that's what keeps you in your current rut.
mircea_popescu: indiancandy1 a while after your tits are on the article, for sure.
