Fedora isn't even the most used.

But what's this BS about "secured desktop computing hardware"? That's what worries me the most.

Smells like an anti-trust lawsuit waiting to happen. The thing will even require drivers or whole programs to furnish a (industry-issued) digital key.

Quote
Marketed as a replacement to BIOS, UEFI provides a secure boot protocol, which requires the OS to furnish a digital key in order to be loaded by the machine. UEFI then can block the operations of any programs or drivers unless they have been signed by this key, a move that should prevent malware from infecting machines by changing the boot-loading process.

In other words, DRM at the root level and hooked into the operating system itself. Sounds like MS is trying to bully practically everyone into a new DRM format.

I hope that initiative goes down in flames. And shame on Fedora for supporting it.

It may not be the most used but it's the first one to fall. This is what happens when "trusted" computing is enforced.

EDIT: This has the potential of completely removing the capability to boot with live disc or USB that's loaded with an "unauthorized" OS. System repairs then gets a lot harder to do.
Multibooting is also at risk.

Yeah, my mother worked at a wally world once. Worst month of working she ever had. Wal Mart is a huge pile of bull shit; I'm glad you got out of there and didn't give them another bit of your precious work hours.

Yeah, it's not worth it to work at such jobs. Ever. It's a sick world we live in where unwillingly debasing yourself for other's profit and amusement is considered more respectable than doing nothing.


My worst job was at Domino's. I got it easy compared to everyone else; I got fired on a technicality, while my boss got his soul crushed with empty promises of advancement, unpaid overtime (80+ hour work weeks, sometimes), and massive amounts of butt kissing that went nowhere.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

DF thread in kag forum:
Quote
i play this game, im a member on the community
in all honesty, the community is full of people from 4chan, a rather famous trolling site.

people in the forums might say that the game has many possibilities, and they don't know that some people prefer vanilla, and in dwarf fortress vanilla, it's no fun, very dull.

one time i posted a thread on some fun stuff to do, all of them just kept saying the same thing, which is: MOD THE GAME!!!!

*somebody saying that the UI is quite bad, and he's right. there is no denying that, but thats not the point.*

Quote
Finally someone agrees with me, I'm already starting to think Toady first aimed his goal for a dull fantasy game, but as more people come and thought it's some fun game, Toady hid his fantasy goal.

Dwarf Fortress gets boring over time, even the Fortress Mode said fun mode, is very boring, even Adventure Mode is boring too.
Game's too boring.

*the guy that said something about the UI saying that he does not agree with him, and is just saying something about the UI.*


How can he be a member of the fucking community if he thinks we are all 4channers and retards and mindless fanboys and that DF is dull?
I mean, seriously. wtf.

EDIT:
Quote
Most mature community?
You mean that guy that made jokes of the French?
You mean people always talking about genitals?
You mean people always talking about phallus?
You mean those IMMATURE jokes?
Seen them all, had enough.

Lolol, this is a perfect chance for trollage. Please, help me, i'm not such an expirienced troll :(

UPDATE:
Replied.
Thread link - Please note, a friendly mod removed the hate.

How in the fuck could we be people from 4chan. There are not broken memes everywhere and we haven't raided anyone for Bay12.
