So if your browser has a bug, systemd would have allowed priveledge escalation and with a default kernel your bios to be overwritten. Note these bugs are very low hanging fruit security wise and shouldn't have happened at all. We understand your decision has been made with reasonable reasons for doing so (saved effort) and that your relevancy gauge is out of sync with ours and we have no idea how many devs. It would still be good if users were aware of the facts without diluting them with impotent shootdowns, not that code correctness, platform independence or security ever has a huge impact on the average users decision. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
