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 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.

None. I use Gentoo and everything is compiled statically.

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.
