schestowitzI don't mind using sysv init forever, but the problem I see is systemd will become incompatible with everything else. You can have two databases like PostgreSQL and MySQL in the same server and there is no problem. You can have MIT Kerberos or Heimdal Kerberos, but not both because are mutually exclusive, but even so there is no problem in having both in the same distro since one is almost a complete replacement of the other.Sep 24 22:13

schestowitzWhen I talk about reading information somewhere else I mean the darknets, I finally figured out what can be done with i2p. And of course I do not take automatically for truth what I read there, but having read lots of information there, some not available in the clearnet, and some of them predicting unlikely events as Ukrainian rebels winning when I was convinced they would lose, and giving logical explanations of why, then I highlySep 24 22:53

schestowitzAnd about Russia: I would not vouch for them every time, I have nothing to win doing that, and certainly I would not have liked a communist government in my country like the ones of Soviet era, that's why when I was young I regarded US "help" as good. But in the particular case of Ukraine I think Russia is doing the correct think and being unfairly punished.Sep 24 22:53
schestowitzI think everyone has his own reasons to support or hate someone or some country and some are clearly justified, and the decision of when to forgive and why is personal. I know that Russia did a lot of regrettable thinks in the past, some of them recently so I would not try to convince anyone to support Russia. From my point of view, my country having never been harmed by Russia, and the way Russia has been behaving lately, I think Sep 24 22:53

schestowitzIt's been a while since I seriously played with Mac OS X (and I've never played with the others), but what I saw at that time (probably around 10 years ago) was that they were progressively replacing the old UNIX flat file configurations with some kind of database backend--I think, but am not sure now, Berkeley DB.Sep 24 22:57

schestowitzYes indeed, that is precisely the kind of can't-see-the-wood-for-the-trees tunnel vision that makes far too many techies utterly unable to engage in meaningful discussions of usability, the inability even to grasp that from a usability POV (that is, the normal, default, ordinary, standard, paying-your-rent, overwhelming-majority, non-technical user's POV) neither flat files nor databases exist, let alone constitute any kind of mutexSep 25 20:03

schestowitz"Yes, that's the point and how I see it.

Then I saw one more flame war, which spawned a second flame war, over systemd, thought about Gnome 3, and thought about Pulseaudio, and realized that this is no longer about software freedom.

-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-@schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: #bash bug is #y2k - let's wait and see how much damage actually gets done. It's mostly patched by now.Sep 27 17:08
schestowitz"Looking at the "test", I can't see it as a bug, but a feature. I haven't seen an example of how it in itself is a bug. If you put code into an environmental variable it can execute it - but is that a weakness? Environmental variables control many things. But programs can and should modify environmental variables. So where is the weakness?"Sep 27 17:08
schestowitz"Isn't the problem that (unfixed) bash automatically evals the env var's value on launch? IOW, the problem isn't that your newly forked shell can -- when you want/need it, when you explicitly dereference the env var in your script/interactively -- eval the code stored in the env var, but that it does eval it automatically on launch, whether you want/expect it to (you don't) or not. Or have I misunderstood?"Sep 27 17:08

schestowitzI don't mind using sysv init forever, but the problem I see is systemd will become incompatible with everything else. You can have two databases like PostgreSQL and MySQL in the same server and there is no problem. You can have MIT Kerberos or Heimdal Kerberos, but not both because are mutually exclusive, but even so there is no problem in having both in the same distro since one is almost a complete replacement of the other.Sep 24 23:10

schestowitzWhen I talk about reading information somewhere else I mean the darknets, I finally figured out what can be done with i2p. And of course I do not take automatically for truth what I read there, but having read lots of information there, some not available in the clearnet, and some of them predicting unlikely events as Ukrainian rebels winning when I was convinced they would lose, and giving logical explanations of why, then I highlySep 24 23:51

schestowitzAnd about Russia: I would not vouch for them every time, I have nothing to win doing that, and certainly I would not have liked a communist government in my country like the ones of Soviet era, that's why when I was young I regarded US "help" as good. But in the particular case of Ukraine I think Russia is doing the correct think and being unfairly punished.Sep 24 23:51
schestowitzI think everyone has his own reasons to support or hate someone or some country and some are clearly justified, and the decision of when to forgive and why is personal. I know that Russia did a lot of regrettable thinks in the past, some of them recently so I would not try to convince anyone to support Russia. From my point of view, my country having never been harmed by Russia, and the way Russia has been behaving lately, I think Sep 24 23:51

schestowitzYes indeed, that is precisely the kind of can't-see-the-wood-for-the-trees tunnel vision that makes far too many techies utterly unable to engage in meaningful discussions of usability, the inability even to grasp that from a usability POV (that is, the normal, default, ordinary, standard, paying-your-rent, overwhelming-majority, non-technical user's POV) neither flat files nor databases exist, let alone constitute any kind of mutexSep 25 21:00

-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-@schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: #bash bug is #y2k - let's wait and see how much damage actually gets done. It's mostly patched by now.Sep 27 18:05
schestowitz"Looking at the "test", I can't see it as a bug, but a feature. I haven't seen an example of how it in itself is a bug. If you put code into an environmental variable it can execute it - but is that a weakness? Environmental variables control many things. But programs can and should modify environmental variables. So where is the weakness?"Sep 27 18:05
schestowitz"Isn't the problem that (unfixed) bash automatically evals the env var's value on launch? IOW, the problem isn't that your newly forked shell can -- when you want/need it, when you explicitly dereference the env var in your script/interactively -- eval the code stored in the env var, but that it does eval it automatically on launch, whether you want/expect it to (you don't) or not. Or have I misunderstood?"Sep 27 18:05
