bhamlin, to piracy in Why are so many people downloading the movie Paul all of a sudden?

Nice try, Paul’s producers.

bhamlin, to comicstrips in Banned books

Ok, I’ll bite.

It feels like most of your position comes from a place of misunderstanding just what goes into a lesson plan about literature; possibly even a deliberate misunderstanding. Schools aren’t giving children books with smut and senseless violence. These materials are constantly being reconsidered and reevaluated. Vonnegut was something taught when I was in school, and removed right after I graduated.

This comic is pointing at the fact that nearly every book on these lists isn’t there because the content is actually a problem. The lists just have books that some religious group dislikes regardless of whether or not they’re being used.

Besides, somehow the christian Bible is somehow still “approved” while having more rape and violence and men kissing men than any book I ever had to read for school.

bhamlin, to asklemmy in How would you rate my stick?

bhamlin, to linux in What's your current favorite distro that isn't Arch, Debian or Fedora?

I miss slackware.

It still kinda exists, but really has become a ghost of its former self.

bhamlin, to linuxmemes in Name em

None. I use Gentoo and everything is compiled statically.

bhamlin, (edited ) to privacy in How bad is Idea of .Zip as password manager?

I don’t know that I’d really add more. It all depends on who and what you’re protecting against. The only thing that’s secure is something that doesn’t exist.

National level hackers have access to resources you might not be able to think of. And if they really want in, rubber hose cryptography is super effective. But most “hackers” on the Internet? And encrypted zip is often enough to deter them. Not impossible, but you might not be worth the time and effort.

In summary, there is better. Much better than an encrypted zip file. But only you can judge if you’re a juicy enough target to pursue more esoteric protection.

bhamlin, to linuxmemes in what's your ubuntu?

My Ubuntu is Manjaro.

bhamlin, to linux in What distros have you tried and thought, "Nope, this one's not for me"?

The problem with SELinux is that everyone rushed to push it out, alongside packages affected by it without support for it. So it was a crapshoot whether or not you’d have something working each time. That is better now, but was initially a colossal pain in the ass for about five years or so.

bhamlin, to linux in what caused you to get into Linux?

Red Hat Linux was the only viable option for me to use on the AlphaStation I’d just bought off of my former employer, and the rest is history.
