    Lunduke has a long history of using negative clickbait titles (the Linux sucks series and HTTPS is bad) to gain views. I'm not surprised that he has somehow found a way to milk thi…

    Apparently, most people on Reddit and HN feel that Solus lost its momentum after Ikey left. The relatively conservative development Solus is seeing with Josh Strobl et al. isn't se…

    As someone who has worked long hours to finish difficult homework assignments during my student years, it really annoys me when I get blank submissions corrupted by sites like corr…

    What makes you feel that malicious apps are the only vector for these exploits. The web is open and iOS users can still download files on their devices. Let's disable file download…

    Your comment brought me to the realization that the relationship doesn't hold both ways. A rational number can always be written as a fraction but a fraction is not always rational…

    A rational number (with a terminating decimal representation or a repeating, non-terminating decimal representation) can always be expressed in fractional p/q form. I don't think t…

    In softer forms of treatment like talk therapy, the patient's agency is emphasized and encouraged by the pschologist. However, the prescription (and assessment of the suitability o…

    A good judgement in my view. Culling dogs isn't the right way to end this. Sterilize them and let them live their lives out. This is going to be the humane way of ending this menac…

    This is my personal opinion. We have been devouring each other for ages now. Entire cultures have vanished, destroyed by more powerful members of the same species. The entire histo…

    I see this headline as 63% of the world now uses the internet in some shape or form. Irrespective of whether they know this or not, any threats to this vast communication network w…

    This software only provides a means to batch and automate things you'd have to manually download through "save link as". It's not chasing a moving target like youtube-dl. It's quit…

    The contributions of those assholes has been a massive factor in the success of the Linux/GNU ecosystem. I'd strongly urge potential contributors to speak with the real people behi…

    I'd much rather have the ability to fix a device myself than be locked into a vendor controlled repair solution. I've been able to extend the life of many devices I've had (the ear…

    The Bhagavid Gita attempts to define a person's response to a life event by decomposing it into "dharma" and "karma". Dharma is external and is specified by a person's birth, caste…

    I'd be wary of calling it a tax. As you pointed out it's an amount large enough to warr off spurious medical needs and small enough that if you're really injured or suffering, it c…
