    So you think a person that would turn off UAC wouldn’t just put NOPASSWD in the sudoers? I doubt that. And even if they had to enter their pwd… Wouldn’t that just be annoying for the casual user instead of increasing security? I doubt they would be like “Oh I have to enter my pwd now, that really makes me think twice about whatever I was going to do with sudo.”







  • Amazon umschifft das ein wenig, denn streng genommen hat auch das ein-Jahres-Paket keine feste Laufzeit, du kannst es als Kunde jederzeit kündigen und dir dann den Rest anteilig auszahlen lassen.

    Danke für diesen Beitrag. Dieser Umstand war mir bisher nicht klar, da er erst beim allerletzten Kündigungsschritt ersichtlich wird. Ich war schon kurz davor eine Rage Mail zu schreiben, um ein Sonderkündigungsrecht “einzufordern”. Aber so war die Kündigung jetzt doch weitaus geschmeidiger :)

    I don’t think most people have an issue with compensation for good content, it’s just there are not a lot of monetization schemes that support this. So what you get instead of quality content is stuff like 40 minute video tutorials with 5 ad breaks about a subject that could have been explained in 5 minutes. That’s also why people tend to put reddit at the end of a google search because chances are good you find a simple post with the exact information you need instead of all the blog sites that explain the same shit in only 5003937352729 words with 300 ads inbetween that show up at the first result page because they game the seo system.




  • If they are 100% transparent in regard to where the money goes, I’m in. The problem with something like youtube premium is not that it’s unaffordable to the majority of users. It’s that at this point you have to assume that they don’t need the subscription fee to cover their costs, but to shove that money up some CEOs or shareholders asses. Yeah that’s not gonna happen unless they force me to and even then I’d think twice about if I really need that service.




  • Either they blatantly lie about the outcome of the password crackdown or they see no issues at all to showcase how mind-bogglingly greedy they are. I think I’ve read this week they claim that subscriptions increased by 6 million worldwide. You’d think that is enough increase in revenue for a while, but no, let’s increase prices now. Weird timing imo, unless they’re testing how far they can go
