Really? And where is that when I'm running Drawterm for example? And Where do programs run when they're not on the P9 terminal? Do those processes ever need access to those namespaces and the resources made available at that point? As to understanding auth, I didn't write the documents. I'm not the one who has never written a architecture document that is actually in date. > oh and i found this on another mailing list. Cypherpunks, a list I helped operate and define the parameters for. At least until last week when I got tired of taking all the heat, two federal cases in 5 years, five or six subpeonas, enough crap to make a mountain of molehills. > "The relentless mass spamming by professor rat and Jim Choate > keeps new comers away, since 99% of the posts to the list is > from people who hate the ideas that the list was created to > further, and seek to shut it down, to prevent thought about and > discussion of such ideas..." > > Now I know what you do when you don't sprout garbage here. You really should have dug deeper, I run (well ran) one of the Cypherpunks nodes. The 'mass spamming' is a long running conflict between the democratic and CACL contingents on that list. It demonstrates a fundamental hypocrisy in their approach. It's why they did -exactly- what they're supposedly against, create 'statist havens' where they can control other actions. Why don't you explain -exactly- the context of that statement? It shouldn't be hard, I've been on the Cypherpunks list nearly since day one back in '92. There are lots of archives. Why not track it back and better understand the dynamics that caused those comments to be made. And while you're at it, explain what those dynamics. I'll even give you a hint, free speech and users managing their own mailbox instead of appealling to 'daddy' to take care of it. You speak from utter ignorance of the Cypherpunks and the dynamics of that group. Apples and Oranges for no other reason than to satisfy your bruised ego. -- -- God exists because mathematics is consistent, and the Devil exist because we can't prove it. Andre Weil, in H.
