Dev and admin terminology can really freak muggles out a lot...

Hazarth94742yI think a parent should always be able to kill it's children. It's much easier to manage that way

hjk10157312y@ars1 Daemon != Demon
Quote from Evi Nemeth:
Many people equate the word "daemon" with the word "demon", implying some kind of satanic connection between UNIX and the underworld. This is an egregious misunderstanding. "Daemon" is actually a much older form of "demon"; daemons have no particular bias towards good or evil, but rather serve to help define a person's character or personality. The ancient Greeks' concept of a "personal daemon" was similar to the modern concept of a "guardian angel"—eudaemonia is the state of being helped or protected by a kindly spirit. As a rule, UNIX systems seem to be infested with both daemons and demons.
Listening to colleagues discuss "executing children" under certain conditions...
