It was unblocked earlier this year. No reasons were given afaik. But even earlier this year, Yourporn's layers have won appeal in court and got youporn unblocked.

> Fun fact: Bitcoin scrypt doesn't support loops, so it's limited in scope in what it can do with a given transaction. Not so with Ethereum.

AFAIK, it was done on purpose: http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/25427/the-bitcoin...

I think thats incorrect. It was made from chromium which has native linux support. In fact, I unpacked archive and I couldnt see any wine parts

I dont see a point in using yet another proprietary branded chromium, that sends info to yandex instead of google.

Makes sense to those who'd rather phone Moscow than Mountain View.

Something tells me this browser isn't really aimed at us.

At least wrt searches you can easily send info to, say, AOL, every browser, Y.B included, allows that. (It is interesting for the Russian-speaking auditory to note that Y.Browser doesn't include search engines of other Yandex's competitors on the Russian market - Mail.ru and Rambler, while it has Ask, Bing and whatnot).

Modern DE's also depend on logind. Which could be replaced with non systemd implementation that has same interface on dbus.

To give people some idea of how practical a non-systemd implementation of logind's dbus API is, here's the documentation for it: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/logind/

It's big, gnarly, essentially undocumented, and contains a bunch of features to support tricky cases like multiseat machines (systems with two or more sets of keyboard, mouse and monitor, each with a different user) that are rarely used but still need to be supported because the API's designed around them. Even the systemd developers don't think a reimplementation is feasible.

Apparently 'Veteran Unix Admins' can't even spell systemd right. It not necessarily correlates with their overall knowledge of systemd, but it's still very strange

Ha, they fixed it. It was spelled SystemD before
