It's a class that's allowed to access another class's private members. Obviously Linus doesn't have any, because he codes in C.

It's a user group

I searched the web and found this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friends

It’s a second user account on your machine. Of course, you don’t put them in the sudoers file. 

I actually made three new friends on new years eve completely through mentioning Linux. We were at a party and I had a really bad year last year so I was rusty in the "talking to people" department, the few people I knew there, who are indie games devs that don't use Linux, said something (can't remember exactly what) that made me reply with a Linux joke and those three people moved their chairs closer to me with a "ooooh, a linux nerd, let's fucking go" energy. We went on such a nerd dive that they party host told us that we aren't allowed to talk Linux anymore or we'd have to leave.
We talked a lot more through the night and had to really concentrate to not get thrown out, haha.

Friend here, what's a linux?

Our prophet

What this whole thing has taught me is that there is a market among billionaires for someone to peddle enslaved kids.

Now epstein is gone, and has been for years, but that demand doesn't just die. I don't have proof, but there is zero doubt in my mind that epstein is not a one and done. There's either another epstein, or more likely a dozen smaller epsteins out there.

There's a part of me that thinks all these ICE abducting kids is being done at trumps order, specifically as a means to replace epstein.

Epstein was not just a pedo pimp. He was a power-broker and a fixer for the American and Israeli rich elites. Not everyone was in for the girls, some of them were in for the other illegal stuff.

Beyond just the pedophilia, his (Epstein) operation was largely one of socialising, and securing (probably coerced) introductions from people he helped facilitate and now held blackmail over.

e.g. using blackmail material on a Bill Gates to secure an introduction to another wealthy and influential individual, offering them a “massage” and then producing kompromat at a later date to bring them into his circle.

Now don’t get me wrong, everyone who found themselves in this position was a willing participant, not a victim - but I can understand how so many oligarchs eventually found their way into his little black book.

Just oligarchs? Oligarchs don't suprise me at all. The more surprising aspect is so many artists, scientists etc. I guess humans have a weakness for someone who makes them feel like a privileged member of a boy's club.

He'll probably be associated with Satoshi that way, he tried to fund the bitcoin reference client with the intent to use it for untraceable transactions. Bitcoin has always been traceable though.

This proves all billionaires are evil, abhorrent scum.

Something that the society achieved in the last 150 years are two dogmas:

• 5/7 8 hours workweek is a maximum
• people before 18 should not have sex with people after 18

I'm kinda glad that questioning these puts one into a category of weirdos.

He's right that we shouldn't infantilise teenagers by calling them 'children', lumping them in with prepubescent children as if there's no difference between them.

Have you read his comments and replies?

WELL well ~well~

I agree. Jxl is superior.
