It’s probably both

What I mean is that these kinds of people usually look at the financial cost per year for a given solution that’s already in place and always look for something cheaper (usually only on paper).

Usually they look at the cost of a licence without giving a single thought about, let’s say, the processing power that’ll be needed for the new thing, the expertise to set it up and run it, and all the migration work that will be needed to make the switch.

Also, when these things happen, most of the time you have to fire/hire/train people to adapt, which means you lose some of your internal knowledge and experience. That’s something that can’t be really quantified and can really hurt an IT system.

In the end, with all the cumulative costs, it’s often far more expensive to switch solutions, and not financially speaking, but that doesn’t necessarily appear on the bottom line they will see from their desks.

Figuring out the navigation and flying the ship is definitely part of the experience. As others said, it’s much easier with a controller and the autopilot is really nice, but precision flying is a part of the game you’ll have to go through at some point (like small platforms landing and flying only with your momentum).

The worst thing in that is the amount of money and human time it must take just to migrate everything. People only looking at the bottom line is the bane of IT…

Germany and ping ponging between proprietary and free software every 2 years, name a better duo

I mean, Microsoft is evil. We’re way past that point with them.

When you ask why, some people answer why not

How do you do that, is there an app?

Well it’s a good step in the right direction, not a massive difference but still

And damage!

I’m sure we’ve seen nothing yet

I’m French ahah. But sometimes it’s nice to see your country from an outside perspective. Being a tourist in your own country can be interesting!

Is it possible for you to share your list?

That first response was awful, like fuck you man, maybe I should read the doc but maybe your software should be better designed if it handles my data like that. Jesus Christ…

You can read about SELinux here or ACLs here. SELinux can be pretty complex if you’ve never used it, so make sure you understand it well. I believe it should be able to do what you want to achieve.

I guess you can use ACLs depending on your filesystem, or SELinux user contexts.

Yeah that would incite you to lie from now on.

Isn’t that standard practice nowadays? You push an outrageous thing to test the reactions, then you pull back and then you push something similar but toned down to be more acceptable. A while later you incrementally move towards your initial plan.

You just pay random people on the internet to do it, it’s fairly easy if you know where/what to ask for.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it were paid by the companies currently battling them over copyright. Bunch of greedy bastards.
