[03:08] MinceR there's the "just trust me bro" approach to "security" where some corporation locks you out of your own computer "but it's for your own good", and it's supposed to be secure [03:08] MinceR (and then of course it doesn't even accomplish what they were hoping to, as demonstrated every time someone breaks something in Restricted Boot) [03:10] Sompi_ MinceR: I mostly need fallacies that advocate software bloat in various forms [03:11] MinceR i see [03:11] MinceR there seems to be the idea that an "init system" is supposed to do everything, for no adequately explained reason [03:12] MinceR also the idea that the kernel must do everything because performance [03:13] Sompi_ and also related to that, if the kernel does not have a statically built-in function for something, it means that the whole operating system that is based on that kernel somehow "doesn't support it" [03:13] MinceR yeah [03:15] Sompi_ For example, Linux is (as most kernels are) completely agnostic to any charset-specific stuff - the syscalls take either strings that end with null byte or have a static length. So the kernel doesn't "support" UTF-8 or any other charset/encoding whatsoever [03:15] Sompi_ In the Windows world that would mean that Linux "doesn't support unicode" [03:17] Sompi_ But some things are definitely faster to do in lower ring levels - for example flow control for networking sockets [03:17] Sompi_ Google wants to break all that by introducing various means of flow control in userspace with their crappy replacements to the HTTP protocol [03:21] Sompi_ And kernel-level TCP doesn't actually even add that much extra complexity, compared to a situation where everything uses UDP and every networking userspace program must implement its own flow control [03:22] Sompi_ But as usual, corporatists turn everything upside down and break established and carefully thought systems by adding complexity into places where it isn't needed and removing it from places where it absolutely is needed ● Dec 02 [04:00] admfubar hilarious... i just got this "newsletter" from medicare with this title "Stay healthy with Dr. Oz.
