I think the better solution is a steep tax on the end product for any product containing at least one microprocessor which executes instructions from a mutable (even if "burned in") memory source, which totally and completely do

Error handling is best done with asserts which check for off-domain inputs and off-range outputs, and explode the running program if triggered. I mean, security trumps convenience and uptime, right guys? Y'all do build your functions w

I love my PocketCHIP. Perfect form factor. Get one or two on eBay before they become rare! I want to try installing OpenBSD on mine sometime soon.

What will this do to Tor, which can't route UDP?

I agree. Laptops should be no thinner than 1.5". I would love a nerd machine that is 2" thick, has no less than ten various ports, has a fat battery that could last more than 24 hours at 'performance' energy settings, mo

I've often thought there needs to be a 'church' for Atheists, basically a carbon copy of the modern churches but with jesus and bible stripped out completely. The social grouping is therapeudic and I think the religion meme h

Oh please. Guns are no more the root of gun violence than BitTorrent is the root of digital piracy. Gun control is the cheap easy path to kudos and biscuits, where improving the mental health system is the long tiring hardwork nobody wants

DM an invite plz. Hopefully Tor isn't a problem. In the Age Of Snowden, I use it almost exclusively. Also might I suggest a .onion gateway (and maybe a .i2p gateway too)?

This is not good. Africa is going to explode by a billion this century while Native Europeans worldwide continue to decline, having been since the '80s.

Over thirty billion dollars per year in aid with no strings attached. They owe us, it's the least they can do!

Why rust? Didn't Ada and SPARK already pretty much solve the problems rust is tackling? rust feels like the systemd of languages: came out of nowhere and very heavily evangelized.

My dream city is one where the building layouts are not densely placed, where easements are quite large to accomodate both wider roads and greater parking area, where everyone drives a motor vehicle, where every 'intersection' is

With any luck, they'll use IBM POWER again! (Please don't be ARM, please don't be ARM)

Best idea is if someone who can read it copies and pastes it into several pastebin, dpaste, bpaste, etc. sites and links them in the comments. By the time DMCA hits the paste sites it'll be a few days later and everyone on HN will have

Yea, like over thirty billion a year to Israel no strings attached!

That's more than Raptor Engineering's Talos II POWER9 workstation max-out! :^O Talos is a fully open hardware platform too.

BitTorrent over Tor (or I2PSnark, which needs more <3) is the superior solution to bad guy big-media. It's free and only needs a minimal amount of patience.

>I do pirate. Y-har matey, good to see a shipmate aboard! In the age of advertising often times the 'legit' sources where one can buy content still show ads or handcuff your free use of it. BitTorrent (over Tor)/I2PSnark&#

I think he's right on and should continue giving this comment section the facts about what even these apparently "clean" apps are doing. Data tracking is the edge of the sword opposite to advertising and should be treated on

According to their 10Q and 10K filings, IBM is over seventy percent a consultation business with less than ten percent of revenue being made from hardware.

Hopefully this will cause an uptick in Gentoo (and OpenBSD)!

IMO the problem is two pronged: a) hardware changes too much too fast creating a constant hamster wheel of driver hacking which puts GNU, Illumos, and BSD at a disadvantage, and b) that hardware is nowhere near significantly documented enou

I'm waiting for you guys to implement a separate "screen" or "application" on all slots, which is a cryptocurrency or Forex or CFD (or even pretend "securities") client hooking up to the casinos' cent

If I had the cash (like $25k budget), I'd go all out on a Talos II (by Raptor Engineering) with maxed out CPU and RAM configuration, and if I couldn't get OpenBSD running on it I would christen it with NetBSD. I would love a &quot
