So, what @[email protected] said is correct.

The existence of Hamas, and their inexcusable actions, are a direct consequence of Israel's militaristic apartheid and colonial oppression of the Palestinian people.

Hypothetical: If there was record from mid-WW2 of Jewish resistance fighters committing actions against the German population that are of the same nature as what Hamas does to Israel today, would that have made the oppression and violent action of the Nazis valid? Or would that be a distasteful, yet potentially necessary reaction to the conditions that they were subjected to?

I'd like to jump in and ask a genuine counter question:

  • What do you believe is the cause of Hamas' existence?

If Greenbone doesn't work out I might try this next, it looks interesting.

I originally crossed this one out because of the docker requirement, but because of your comment i looked again. It looks like it can be built from source instead! I'm deploying it after work tomorrow

No matter how much you lay out that policies passed by the NDP are more effective at resolving the issues that they're flocking to PP for... They always circle back around to "but they havent stopped trudeau" or "they never do anything" or even (the funniest one) "they're corrupt"

I'm hopeful for the states now that kamala is the likely nominee... But I think we're doomed up here

Yes and at the end of the day it's all just binary getting dumped into a cache and processed by the CPU. The point is that the intent of the file matters and while they do both hold text, the intent, purpose, and handling of the kernel mode/ring 0 driver is much different than a "simple text file"

So different in fact, that as another user pointed out, it has happened to Linux too

Calling a kernel mode driver a "simple text file" sure is interesting

Not to jump at you in another comment thread, but any OS that is deployed in a business environment should have some form of endpoint protection installed unless it is fully airgapped + isolated.

Despite the myth that "Linux doesn't get malware", it absolutely does and should have protection installed. Even if the OS itself was immune to infection, any possible update can introduce a vulnerability to that.

Additionally, again, even if the OS (or kernel in the case of linux) couldn't be infected or attacked, the packages or services installed can be attacked, infected, or otherwise messed with and should be protected.

I'm not sure if you intended to reply to me, but I am aware of this. Thanks for checking my understanding though :)

I see you're operating on a plane of reality where windows is the only bad software, so it's kinda pointless for me to continue here. I hope you have a wonderful day.

Y'know, I'm pretty deep in the FLOSS brainrot, but as someone who: A. Daily drives Fedora and Debian B. Works for an MSP and deals with Windows daily

Most companies cannot afford the productivity, monetary, or labour hour investment that is involved with changing to a whole new OS and re-training all of the workforce. Thats even if you ignore that switching to Linux generally also involves changing some percentage of programs that are used for business critical processes.

I love Linux, but it's not meant for every situation
