The mailing list for security vulnerabilities is private, in order to keep zero days a secret before they are patched. This is the issue, not the mailing list. Moving away from mailing lists wouldn't solve this because the vulnerabilities would still have to be private.

Ah yes, the first last update.

You can't use Google Wallet to pay with NFC, they don't have Miracast, and Chromecast can supposedly work but I haven't been able to get it to work. Those are the three major hurdles I've found, but getting away from Google was a priority so I'll live without them.

NFC can have other providers other than Google Wallet, but I haven't found any that I find trustworthy enough yet. Supposedly the EU is making an alternative.

The parallel comes from the argument from rape apologists that say stuff like "men can't control themselves, it's like putting a juicy stake in front of a dog". It's a disgusting argument shifting blame to the way women dress, saying they provoked them. The message here comes straight from that, debunking the whole "dogs can't control themselves so men can't either" argument.

As for whether the dog would eat that while the trainer isn't there, I don't know about that. I trained my dog not to eat without a signal, and I have been testing her to see how well she responds to that by literally leaving the room for a while and seeing what she does. I always come back to the untouched food and her lying patiently in front of it. And it's not just me, there are a ton of videos of people doing the same and leaving their dogs alone with the food, some of these videos even part of an earlier iteration of this same trend.

Also, I don't think it matters that the dog didn't train itself. In fact, I think it says exactly what it should, that we should stop hiding behind the "boys will be boys" argument and teach our boys and men how to behave.

This isn't foolproof. A lot of malware these days is resistant to analysis because they can detect that they're running in a sandbox and refuse to run the malicioua code.

This article is satire. However, it's satire that's based on a real thing Sergey Brin said.

I mean, SUSE Linux Enterprise, the distro on which OpenSUSE Leap is based, has been developed by SUSE since 2000. It's newest version, 15, is used in IBM's Watson and HP's Frontier supercomputers. I'd say it's enterprise ready.
