Never suggests anything on linux Chrome 57.0.2987.133

Absolutely the nicest way to say "join my cult or get out" that I've ever heard of.

It is not astonishing that a company that would do this would also lie about it. They knew what they were doing.

This is how cynical I've become about this kind of stuff, I see it as a small victory that AT&T admits they're doing it.

This will continue as long as so many people want linux to be a free version of Windows or Mac OS X, instead of a free PC unix.

Still using it, at home and at work.

You know attorney and police officer are really different jobs, right?

Good. When I have a problem, I can get a hold of a human at Zillow and they're nice to work with.

As far as I know Trulia is just a very complicated cron job.

I've been using Slackware for years now both at home and at work. It's a great distro and that's because of Pat!

I appreciate what Alexis is trying to do here but I hope he isn't assuming that the FCC just doesn't understand the problem. That's how this reads to me. Maybe the idea is to be diplomatic. I don't think the FCC cares. The FCC understands what is going on and it wants to do whatever is best for the FCC.

The best thing for tech companies to do is to start destroying some political careers. That's the only thing the machine understands and the only thing it's really going to respond to.

Offhand I can't think of any of my friends who haven't been arrested.

"Today we also lost extensive online forums for a community of sex workers to keep each other safe, screen clients, and blacklist predators."

I'm hopelessly cynical at this point in my life, so I'm not surprised at all that our government sees that as facilitating prostitution.

Same here, I checked it every day for many years. It was one of those fundamental parts of the linux experience in the late 90s.

It surprised me how much emotional impact this announcement had for me. I hate to see freshmeat go, even if it wasn't much anymore compared to what it was. Oh well, you can't go home again.

At my first real admin job I had root on an E6500 machine and really thought I was the shit.

Call me paranoid but this just looks like really good evidence that Truecrypt was secure.
