  • Given that Mac keybindings for “common special functions” (Open/Save/Cut/Copy/Paste/Find/etc.) use Command instead of Ctrl, leaving Ctrl effectively unused unless in combination with Command, this argument doesn’t hold much water.

    Sure, some Emacs fan at Apple decided to add Emacs shortcuts to Cocoa controls, but that was a pretty arbitrary decision since people coming from Mac OS 9 didn’t use the Ctrl key, well, ever.



  • I’m not saying they aren’t allowed to show ads, but I am saying that once they do, they are no longer allowed to refer to themselves as independent.

    No company that wants to advertise on your website is stupid enough to sign away editorial control, i.e. once you agree to display their ads, you are no longer allowed to say anything bad about them. And even if they did, there’s still the looming risk that if you do, they are well within their rights to pull their ads and there goes your income.

    If you’re going to show ads, be honest to your readers about what that means.





  • Yes; I wanted to mention that dhcpcd is not affected because the title explicitly mentions the DHCP client (dhclient), so people might go looking for alternative DHCP clients in the comments.

    I think it’s a bit confusing that you mentioned the DHCP client (dhclient) and DHCP relay (dhrelay) in the title, then link to the Arch Wiki article about the DHCP server (dhcpd). Yes, dhrelay is contained in the dhcpd package (dhclient, however, is not), but I assume most people will be using a DHCP client and few will be operating a DHCP server or relay.
