And there's the more basic issue that there is way too much complexity in my
Linux OS to understand or be reasonably sure of completely correct operation,
with apporoximately 1 million lines in the Kernel, lots of things that can pop
in or out, and no real check on device drivers.
I'm a lot more than J. Random User, but I just haven't had time to learn it all.
There's simply too much of it, and I have a day job.
Not that I don't like Linux...I do...it's that I want to do more, so that a
DEFAULT user is malware-proof and malware aware, and so that a reasonably
educated user such as myself can actually understand and completely control the
whole beast, even with you and everyone else sending me malware of extreme
quality and value.
Remember, my address today is supposed to be 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, but it
changes to 10 Downing Street for an hour every Monday at 6AM, if the program is
signed by a company in Redmond. Further, the mail it tries to send goes to
dev/nul but only after the program thinks its mail server has received it. An
alarm goes off and stops everything if more than one piece of mail is sent per
day, so when a "Melissa"(I Love You) virus comes by, I am the first to
know.
