Odd accusation since Sunak is Hindu.

. Germany is (sadly) not running a China-style Zero Covid plan.

Assuming sarcasm

It looks like an electronic shackle offenders under house arrest get

How does the article lead to this conclusion?

I think in the near future we'll have deep neural nets that create and puppet an VR avatar for us, while we're sitting normally in front of our PCs. Kind of like a recursive version of a v-tuber: you pretend you're wearing a VR headset and listen to the pointless rambling during meetings, while your boss pretends that everyone is being so much more productive.

Teams is still trying extremely hard to provide a usable text chat, and now they want to go to VR?

The hubris!

Banana republic

Because macos doesn't have hardware destroying bugs?

Bug free software doesn't exist. Hardware destroying bugs are thankfully very rare, but they do exist.

That'll show him the next time he opens HN!

Headline: "Smoking does not cause cancer."

Article: "This study proves that smoking does not cause skin cancer."

This is the worst attempt at corporate propaganda I've seen in a while.

I never imagined the day would come where I'd agree with one of Google's product decisions.

Signal is another centralized platform which explicitly prohibits using 3rd party clients.

Can't say the N word in Guix

I think Guix is more than ready for providing development environments, even for proprietary apps on open source technology stacks (but Nix will probably be easier to pitch). As an operating system much less so.

Facts don't generate clicks

A direct war between NATO and Russia will go nuclear and cause tens of millions of casualties in the best case

If you want to go and fight, do it yourself

"It rather involved being on the other side of this airtight hatchway", as one Microsoft blogger would say.

Not completely down but many requests are timing out

Github uptime has been pretty bad in the last weeks.

It might be a DoS for a webserver that's supposed to be IO-bound.

Turning on that behavior for all python code in a patch release with only a global override is sloppy.

If only there was a way to look at the alleged evidence...

How many of those services are honeypots?

Probably at least the majority of the discord ones.

Fascism is when the state stops blocking projects. The less projects get blocked, the more fascist it is.

And when no projects get blocked, then it's national socialism.

Right. If you want to perform a regime change, look at its historical track record in countries like... Libya, the invasion of which was called the worst mistake of his presidency by Obama.

You make it sound like the more Africans you kill, the more warmer Europe gets, which is nonsense. Last time I checked, wars only destroy.

Civilized discourse with warmongers is impossible. If you want regime change in some country thousands of miles away, go do it yourself. I am not going to send myself or my kids to die for your hubris.

"Sort that country out" is an euphemism for killing tens of thousands of people on both sides of the war.

No.

Of interest is that none of the points in the "What could be done to reduce bills?" section increase the the availability of gas. The tax cuts, support packages, price freezes, etc. will result in more money chasing the same amount of energy.

If living consuming less and living simply is "absolutely a bad thing" then consuming more and living more complicated lives is absolutely a good thing.

I did not say that.

I did however imply that being unable to afford heating (or even being unable to receive heating at all) during winter is absolutely a bad thing, and that's the path Europe is headed towards. Having a high GDP per capita does not mean high environmental damage at all; in fact the opposite is true. Compare how emerging countries generate electricity with how developed countries generate electricity.

Reduction of living standards (of the population of course, not Macron's) are absolutely a bad thing.

The South Africanization of Europe is going along nicely.

As opposed to the record-high energy prices and inflation in the eurozone? This article is lying by omission.
