  • Another hypothetical but ( probably very) unlikely scenario: if two people were cahoots and one accuses the other, and the other was willing to go through with the chemical castration, and manage to prove it in court, and then the alleged offender gets exonerated ( be it with prepared evidence or the accuser admitting they mistakenly identified them ), isn’t the UK just doing a bankruptcy speedrun?

    Given the stage of capitalism we’re in, I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of people did this. Or at least attempt it regardless of how stupid it is? People have done riskier, stupider, and more convoluted things for a LOT less. If that happens en masse, actual victims get less attention and sex crimes start getting taken less seriously.

    I think if systemd were documented in a more consumable format (the man pages need better organization IMO) more people would see how powerful it is. Mounting directories with BindPath, and BindPathRO, Limiting systemcalls, socket activation and cgroup integration, and nspawn containers are features I can’t live without.

    I feel like a lot of people that get attached to the “It tries to do everything and it’s against the unix philosophy” argument might change their minds when they see the tradeoffs. It has its problems for sure, but you get a lot out of it.

    These days I don’t even use docker containers for running services. I just put it in a systemd service and lock it down as tightly as I can.



  • I’m not commenting on implementation itself but rather on how Mozilla went about with an opt-out approach into the collection program (even if it was for testing) to a community they have cultivated with the promise of privacy.

    Collecting my data is a big deal. It doesn’t matter how it is used. I should at least consent to it.
