    No, not just his methods, unless you agree with shit like this:

    Leftists tend to hate anything that has an image of being strong, good and successful. They hate America, they hate Western civilization, they hate white males, they hate rationality. The reasons that leftists give for hating the West, etc. clearly do not correspond with their real motives. They SAY they hate the West because it is warlike, imperialistic, sexist, ethnocentric and so forth, but where these same faults appear in socialist countries or in primitive cultures, the leftist finds excuses for them, or at best he GRUDGINGLY admits that they exist; whereas he ENTHUSIASTICALLY points out (and often greatly exaggerates) these faults where they appear in Western civilization. Thus it is clear that these faults are not the leftist’s real motive for hating America and the West. He hates America and the West because they are strong and successful.










  • I don’t believe there is any particular advantage of linux insisting on password input for privilege escalation. Obviously there is no proof of this, but I suspect that the design of this privilege escalation flow in linux is at least partly caused by its popularity as a server OS, for example the UI flow for Windows UAC wouldn’t work if you’re trying to remotely administrate a server through the terminal.

    Is Windows + UAC + no password secure?

    It should be, in fact I believe that by default if your local admin account doesn’t have a password set, remote logins and run-as is disabled for that account so you might even be able to argue that it is more secure. It’s probably one of the reasons why Windows 11 comes with a recommended option to disable passwords and only authenticate through Windows Hello.

    I’ll try to exercise my “assume good faith” muscle here because I think the above poster is at least genuine about what they are posting: I believe this poster wishes that the people who oppose the proliferation of AI at the cost of human connection would “put their money where their mouth is” by reaching out to the people that this poster feels are unfairly ignored.
