I propose 3 laws that will solve all issues we all have with corporations

A corporation may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

A corporation must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

A corporation must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

My new most favorite way of being annoying: asking "what is the threat model that led to this security decision?".

I'm expecting, nay hoping, to be asked that for my own projects now.

@b US aircraft carriers by hull number, presently up to CV-10 Yorktown. Submarines and small escorts for mobile devices.

@ringo Just wondering what "a bit expensive each year" amounts to.

computer science: the professional study of getting into a fight with an inanimate object and losing

@gvs @amolith Tilix is my jam for split terms. Tilix and four glorious monitors.

I probably should not do things at work that make me giggle when I think about them.

Related: our inventory-and-deployment programs turn out to support naming things with emojis, and our bosses are doing a presentation about them next week. I think you see where I'm going here.

@Xantulon @amolith I wouldn't use Icecat. The last release is 60.7 from June 2019 and browsers are famously full of security holes.

@ajroach42 virt-manager. Second choice would be VMware Player and VirtualBox at third.

One of my favourite #Debian features: the #dwww package.

All system documentation is accessible, offline, via a web browser (or the commandline "dwww" utility).

Man pages, info, system release history, extended documentation, RFCs (if you choose to install those). Just massive gobs of stuff.

re: open this post to feel old 

@bhtooefr My old 2500K is still in daily service in my Linux/VM server. It'd easily OC to 4.3 GHz on the stock cooler and could just about play Witcher 3 on minimum settings.

If my gaming habit were less severe I'd probably still be happy with it as my daily driver.
