No need to distinguish ports when you can remove them all instead.

Windows has been showing popup USB speed warnings since at least Windows XP.... so 25 years?

Let's not use this cope to mislead anyone into thinking this is a unique Mac innovation (it isn't) that trumps this abomination of human factors (it doesn't).

$150 netbooks solved this by labeling the ports "SS" or using blue USB-A inserts, but those are matters inferior PC users have to deal with.

> One is security updates and bug fixes.

That's where you're wrong. They're not one and the same.

Debian stable often defers non-security bug fixes for up to two years by playing this game.

I'm not interested in new features unless they make things actually work.

Debian stable time and again favors broken over new. Broken kernels, broken packages. At least they're stable in their brokenness.

Hence my complaint.

> What it's about is, newer versions change things. A newer version of OpenSSH disables GSSAPI by default when an older version had it enabled.

Debian patches defaults in OpenSSH code so it behaves differently than upstream.

They shouldn't legally be allowed to call it OpenSSH, let alone lecture people about it.

Let them call their fork DebSSH, like they have to do with "IceWeasel" and all the other nonsense they mire themselves into.

When you break software to the point you change how it behaves you shouldn't be allowed to use the same name.

Maybe this is the kick in the ass Debian needs to upgrade the embarrassingly ancient dnsmasq in "stable" because while I can't think of any new features, the latest versions contain many non-CVE bug fixes.

But I doubt it, they will lazily backport these patches to create some frankenstein one-off version and be done with it.

Before anyone says "tHaT's wHaT sTaBlE iS fOr": they have literally shipped straight-up broken packages before, because fixing it would somehow make it not "stable". They would rather ship useless, broken code than something too new. It's crazy.

I'm fairly certain (an earlier iteration of) that came out in Windows Vista which is nearly 20 years ago. It was called Aero Snap.

It's a good thing this software isn't used in millions of devices which almost never receive updates.
