  • The reason people say that Arch is unstable is that you are expected to read the news on the website before every update or else your system is liable to be broken – and sometimes it will break in spite of that. Oh, and the expectation is that you’ll be updating multiple times per week, and if you don’t, you will soon be in a situation where to install any package you must update your entire system.

    Most other distros place no such expectations on the user.





  • Calling it a “one-man spam campaign” when that one man does not send any of the emails himself (well ok, he probably sent a few himself) is pretty rich. Good article, terrible title and lede.

    Joachim’s campaign is blocking more traditional lobbyists and campaigners, too, they said. Mieke Schuurman, director at child rights group Eurochild, said the group’s messages are no longer reaching policymakers, who “increasingly respond with automated replies.”

    Great success.
