    You are part of the problem. In fact, you are the problem. You know, tenants have rights too, they pay taxes, and as a rule they tend to pay more taxes and get less break for it th…

    pkg_add -Uu won't address a single update under https://www.openbsd.org/errata.html , i.e. the very most important ones. Also as far as I know pkg_add still doesn't know about rest…

    It wasn't? Then why did they? As I've repeatedly reminded, sudo is in ports. I thought credential caching was left out because it was another unnecessary bloated feature creep and …

    Ya'll are beyond parody. It was added to CVS two months ago? Yay. I'll be sure to upgrade and rebuild from dev in CVS. Call me when doas has finished reimplementing sudo, oh so muc…

    How does that matter? Fact is you move from 5.7 to 5.8 and boom, no sudo. Check the release notes, and yeah, it's replaced with Ted's little side project. In 5.9 release notes it's…

    Much to like, but one point is somewhat outdated and another is missing. 1. The lack of an AppArmor-type MAC implementation is somewhat outdated since Theo rolled his own with "ple…

    How is this to supposed to show "how vulnerable you are to this sort of attack"? This runs standalone. 1. As a general rule, if you download and run an untrusted standalone program…

    Then you knowingly bought a combo shitbox. There have always been quality consumer wireless access points, modems, and routers available, but you chose to buy the combo shitbox.

    well, that wasn't as alarming as "one down the shed there that'll use 13 litres of petrol every hundred yards." I hope it is moving a lot of dirt in those 100 yards.

    You say all this like it is a problem. Go to the yard sale and get yourself a 1970s era color TV if you like it so much.
