Stimmen Sie ab über den Public Eye Award 2014. Heuer wird sogar der Public Eye Lifetime Award verliehen.
Treffen Sie ihre Wahl gegen eines von sechs transnationalen Unternehmen: Goldman Sachs, Glencore, Chevron, Walmart, Gazprom and Dow Chemical.
Zu den Favoriten gehören für uns u.a. Chevron, das 64 Millionen Liter Rohöl, 68 Milliarden Liter giftiger Abwässer und Sondermüll auslaufen hat lassen und damit riesige zuvor intakte Land und Wasserflächen im Amazonas verseucht hat und viele Menschen, die an Krebs gestorben sind, umgebracht und einige indigene Gemeinschaften fast ausgelöscht hat. Bis heute weigert sich das Unternehmen etwas gegen die Folgeschäden zu unternehmen.
Goldman Sachs steht für seine aktive Rolle in der Eurokriese im Visier. Vor der Euroeinführung hat es Griechenlands Schulden mit Bilanztricks verschleiert und danach u.a. kräftig davon profitiert gegen griechische Staatsanleihen zu wetten. Letztlich haben solche Aktionen die Reichen reicher gemacht und Millionen Menschen in die Armut getrieben.
Vote for the worst behaving company. Take part in the poll for the Public Eye Lifetime Award, 2014.
Six companies can be voted: Goldman Sachs, Glencore, Chevron, Walmart, Gazprom and Dow Chemical.
Among our favourites are Chevron for spilling 17 million gallons of crude oil, 64 billion liters of toxic waste and flaring gas in the Amazon rainforest polluting huge areas and having caused many people to die of cancer and having brought some indigenous tribes close to extinction. The company strictly refuses trying to do something to remedy the harm.
Goldman Sachs may be voted for its role in the Euro Crises having first obscured Greece´s public deficit by accounting tricks before the launch of the Euro and then profited a lot from it by betting against Greek government bonds; its active role in the crises has helped to make the rich richer while sending Millions of people into poverty.
Version 1.6 of the Scripting Free Software License has been published (S-FSL v1.6). Properties of the license: per file checksums, revenue dispense, disputed where first original author lives. Currently confinedrv-v1.7 is available under this license with the free branching option. Other programs provided by elstel.org will follow on request or the next update.
confinedrv limits read/write access for certain partitions of a hard drive in order to boot multiple times from the same hard drive with virtualization software like qemu.
improvements by version 1.7:
Certain boot problems which have arised under respective circumstances with v1.2.1 due to err-ing out gap spaces needed by grub or other loaders rather than zeroing them out or making them available as read-only should now be resolved (default currently is to zero out). It is important for grub that the partition where grub resides (i.e. the menu.lst) is at least readable.
choose for any of three modes for every partition: read, write, error or zero (sdx=sda:r1:e2,3:w5,6,7:z8); default is now to zero out any parition which has not been mentioned rather than letting any access err there (example makes a.o. partitions 5, 6, 7 writable and partitions 2, 3 err.).
The --gap and --mbr options provide means for specifying the access rights for gaps between primary partitions or all the space before the first partition including the partition table and the MBR respectively.
The [--noannot] --info sdx now provides a better readable map of the partition table annotated with symbolic references for the start and end of partitions by default. --loopusage shows all loop devices in use by confinedrv.
