Shut up. That's warranted given that this is essentially what you're telling me here (also more explicitly in the last part of your message, as quoted at the bottom here). > > > > Repeat after me: I can display what looks like a login screen; > > > I don't to have anything to do with ctrl-alt-del to display that. > > > > I do not need to repeat mantras.

Once again, that's the opposite of what I said, and completely missing what I said. > > > I've looked at the > > source code and issue tracker of upstream Firefox in the past and it has > > upstream support for pledge(2) and unveil(2). > > Great, you figured it out: if you want to know if a given piece of > software uses pledge, grep its source code for pledge. Sounds very tiresome and cumbersome to check. You failed to point at any rule according to which I'm not permitted to ask a general question about such software without resorting to tiresome and cumbersome manual methods like what you're suggesting here, and you consistently ignore this by bringing the same manual grep/find suggestion again and again with no sensible reason given what I explained now. > > > Your "if there is one [program I care about]", "duh", and other things > > you've said so far to me and I haven't pointed out in this paragraph show > > that you're very disrespectful towards me. > > Nothing gets past you. False. I strive to exercise critical thinking, analytical thinking, and logic as much as possible. Nonsense, however, doesn't "get past me", as I rightfully evaluate it as nonsense and therefore dismiss it. Ditto regarding true but irrelevant things. > > > I saw that I got replied to using marc.info, > > No you didn't.

Correct; I assumed you made a honest mistake. I had no better way to know what's true, however, so it's not really my fault, because I acted in a good way within the limits of my then-current knowledge and range of possible reactions I could react in the situation. > > > this isn't my first time using a mailing list, > > but I'm pretty sure it's my second time, and I'm fairly new > > to how mailing lists work.

Hansteen's disgusting behavior has absolutely nothing to do with any contribution he may or may not have contributed whatsoever. Furthermore, I said quite the opposite: I mentioned how he's part of the OpenBSD news website that I love to visit and that I've seen his name in many places (for example, I found his networking tutorials in the past, and saved the links for myself because it's good learning material and interesting). I explicitly acknowledged that, and it has nothing to do with him being an asshole anyway, yet you ignore both of these facts. > You really need to shut the fuck up now. > > Please note that I am replying to you directly, off-list. > Hint: there is a reason for that. > I am deliberately shaming you on a public mailing list because you're a troll. I may also block you in my Gmail settings if I'll find the setting in mobile. I'm giving you a middle finger. ~ | ~ | ~ | ~ | ~ | ~ (Note for everyone: This message is intended to shame a troll; if you're here to follow the technical discussion only, feel free to skip reading this message.)
