I hope no one has to work with you, you're insufferable.

I'm one of those affected, it has been busted about 24 hours too...

to expand on that:

"In computing, a symbolic link (also symlink or soft link) is a file whose purpose is to point to a file or directory (called the "target") by specifying a path thereto."

If you do have sudo you can be very restrictive on who can run what.

(just like Hacker News where the comments posted must align with dang's views, he's also known as "the algorithm").

> Your link is dangerous to our democracy.

Democracy relies on free speech, which you don't believe in. I'm well aware this point will be lost on you as you're too busy being hysterical.

Do you pity Fritzl? Where's your line...

Feel free to point out where he didn't make two distinct statements.

Good to see we're on the same page.

> ...what does this have to do with foreign investment in local assets?

Perhaps you missed the rest of my comment.

The current trend is that people from nations that were colonisers are the cause of, and are responsible for, the woes of descendants of colonised peoples. It's good to see that you can see through the bullshit too.

There are only select groups that can invest in property, they must reach the baseline investment sum and ongoing payback before they can play the game. Having unchecked offshore ownership is massively damaging to the local people, it raises the bar all that much more. Offshore control of property can easily be weaponised, where it's not about investment but instead about legal denial of property to the locals.

NZ suffers from some of this.

It wasn't until the 1800s that hand washing was tied to health (Semmelweis). The 1300s would have been a filthy, filthy existence it's not a great surprise the plague spread like wildfire (past its initial vector). Basic hygiene has helped humanity massively.

> Dying of respiratory or cardiac failure is horrifying enough

That is how you die, regardless of events it's ultimately brain death due to lack of oxygen to the brain - pray your heart stops one day (everything else is worse).

> Dying of respiratory or cardiac failure is horrifying enough

I know you were making a reference to c19. Yes, being kept in solitary confinement while you suffocate to death by order of the state would be a miserable way to go (tax extracted and left in an "exit room").

Here in NZ the state forced an elderly man to watch from the roadside as his wife was buried but politicians were allowed to go swimming during the same lock down... Disgusting.

I don't believe the latter half of that sentence but sure, I'll tone it down.

That one makes passwords vanish from ones memory quite effectively.

win98lite, was windows install modification for win98 to remove some stuff so you could play computer games more while you weren't defragging your hard drive.

Wakey wakey.
