Suse, micoshaft's lapdog, is no stranger
to doing the crap on unfortunate enough to use Suse..
You have to look at Suse/Novel from a micoshafty point
of view - if its gonna keep its lapdog style
slave friendship with micoshaft going for a bone
then it needs to do the bad on Linux.
Root access for everything - yup that sounds like
Suse/Novel doing the bad on Linux.
Other projects that I had the displeasure of finding
broken in Suse included Gambas across many a revisions.
Gambas was quick to point out the fault is with Suse
with distro specific instructions of what they were doing
wrong which made me drop Suse crap on the spot.
There are plenty of other working distros out there.

Torvalds was enraged that it took weeks of “arguing on a Bugzilla
that the security policy of requiring the root password for changing
the time zone and adding a new wireless network was moronic and
wrong. I think the wireless network thing finally did get fixed, but
the time zone never did - it still asks for the admin password.”
The final straw though was when Torvalds’ young daughter “Daniela
calls me from school, because she can’t add the school printer
without the admin password.”
Then Torvalds really blew up, “Whoever moron thought that its “good
security” to require the root password for everyday things like this
is mentally diseased.

Torvalds has spewed a lot of crap over the years (he called criticism of
Microsoft a "disease", for example, then proclaimed his undying love for
Tivoization), but he's really jumped the shark this time, describing the
standard UNIX security model as a "disease" too, whilst drooling over an

Linus Torvalds is showing he understands the importance of usability.
He is much, much smarter than any of the herd.

In other words: he is making sense. As Shuttleworth does. And Jim Zemlin.
He is not a Stallman cultist so you hate him. And anyone who largely agrees
with Torvalds, Shuttleworth, and Zemlin is deemed a Wintroll or other form
of troll in COLA.
Completely absurd.

As far as the "credibility" that Linus, the father of Linux has. The entire
Linux community knows exactly who he is. Who or what the fuck is a "Homer"?
Fact is that a "Homer" like you isn't qualified to wipe Linus's ass you useless
jackoff. If Linus were to spit a wad of phlegm on the street it would have
more credibility than a sad nobody like you.
"what little is left of his credibility" - priceless coming from a "Homer"
like you.

If Torvalds despises security so much, then why doesn't he just switch
to Windows and STFU? I mean he's already half-way there anyway, with his
overpriced Apple toy gizmo.
The mind boggles.
It's shit like this that makes me want to switch to GNU/Hurd, and tell
Linus "disease" Torvalds to shove "his" kernel up his arse.

real sacrifice in support of your so-called "principles".
And I think you know as well as anyone that moving exclusively to
GNU/Hurd will be a real sacrifice, even for a wacko *nix-head like you.

His creation of Linux afterall was to give a free version-look-alike of

few years working on another OS project for some company... and they do
flouridate the water.
How come on the toothpaste tube of Crest does it say not to swallow the
flouridated tooth paste, and that if you do, to see an MD?
Flourides are also used an the active ingredient to kill rodents.

He'll never admit it though because he has too much class for that.
And class is something so missing from the Linux community in
general.

Because it is made of *detergent*. The tiny amount of flouride has nothing to

Yes and the electric chair uses electricity. Dosage matters.
Christ on a bike, I thought this flouridation nonsense was past its use-by
date in 1975 or so.

communities are now trying to get the poison out of their water supply.
Flouridation of the water does not prevent tooth decay as the dental
association wants people to believe. What happened to me and found out
the hard way is that over time the teeth get very brittle and start to
crumble in big chunks. Then you need a crown. And that is what keeps
the dentists in business. So I stopped using all flouride products
about 15 years ago and haven't had that problem occur again.
I believe that this stuff just isn't safe and mostly a way for the
aluminum industry to dump their byproduct for a profit.
People get confused between Sodium Flouride, which is the aluminum
refinery byproduct with Calcium Flouride, which is found naturally in
some water districts and is good for the teeth... better known as Calcite.

That's absolutely hillarious. A do-nothing nobody like Homer claiming that
Linus Torvalds needs to preserve the "little credibility" that he has left.
Here's a simple reality check - take the top 1000 contributors to Linux/FOSS
and ask them who Linus Torvalds is and ask these same people who "Homer" is.
Homer is a unaccomplished nobody who isn't qualified to wash the urinal that
Linus pisses in.
