Personally, I'd do the same thing as the cops if I were in the situation you describe: do nothing and rake in the moolah, and if anyone has a problem with that, pretend it's someone else's fault.
Because they're not a threat to society, have not been determined to be guilty, and throwing people in jail (only to bond out anyway a couple days later, in most cases - funneling more money to bondsmen) is a great way to (a) spread a pandemic and (b) waste money giving them what they want (shelter, food, healthcare, etc.)?
Some of it does, most doesn't
I don't know of anything in crypto which actually works (read: does something better/cheaper than pre-existing technologies). The single value of it is speculation.
Do you really want Microsoft adding tabs to it, though? Because they'll do it the same way they did it in IE. "Your tabs are also windows because we don't understand the difference, enjoy!"
Respecting my property rights is actually an infringement on your liberty
No, disrespecting other people's property rights is an infringement on their liberty. You being told not to disrespect other people's rights is NOT an infringement on your liberty.
Not being able to legally kill me without some just cause is also an infringement on your liberty
WTF?
everyone agrees that its a matter of degree
Oh how I wish that were true. Not even most people can agree on that.
What citation? LOL There wasn't one (just a footnote, and not even on the proper page) but I'm not sure why you think a citation would make a blatant falsehood any more true.
This sentence is an ad hominim: I don't think you know what "ad homenim" [sic] means.
Saying something about the way someone presented their argument? That's not an ad hominim.
LOL.
No, virtually nothing made 18 years ago is secure. In fact virtually nothing made a day ago is secure, but when something has been sitting around stagnating for 18 years that means the world has had ~6575x as many opportunities to find a vulnerability.
... can we talk about the fact that it has a copyright year of 2003??? Sure, I totally believe there aren't a billion known vulnerabilities in that OOB management chip's code... the damn thing is old enough to vote!
it's a distinctly different paradigm from the familiar a-file-is-a-stream-of-bytes convention of Linux/UNIX/NTFS
Each of those platforms has an analog to HFS forks.
coo' coo', go try and scam someone with an NSF, see how it goes my man.
I never said it wasn't subjective, so I'm not sure why you're commenting here. I said IF one insisted on a single definition. i.e. like the person I was replying to did.
"That orange cell right next to Raleigh" is an outlier, unlike say... St Louis.
Where did I say that?
No. They should be held responsible for their own mistakes. I'm not sure who else but the CEO and board you think have the ability and responsibility to make sure their company is acting appropriately.
We have functional civil courts, and they are more than capable of remediating wrongs
That's actually a good one. Thanks for the laugh.
The culture around ARM mobile phones and tablets heavily emphasized bootloader locking
Virtually all of which are user-unlockable. But keep telling me how unopen they are?
(BTW, those of us who actually want secure systems very much appreciate the fact that malware can't overwrite my boot sector without a hardware-level vulnerability.)
I'm afraid we've completely forgotten to separate the means from the end goal.
I'm afraid we've completely forgotten "the ends don't justify the means". ;)
It's 1% of the whole population, but a much larger percentage of certain political ideologies.
Blockchain is the future of nothing...
Yeah, fuck that. Fuck blockchain. Fuck Meta. Fuck Zuck the schmuck. That’s all I have to say about that.
I like this guy.
How else do we incentivize companies to make sure things like this don't happen, if there's no punishment for companies who do them repeatedly?
Uhh, inheritance definitely counts as income, but I'm not sure what income taxes have to do with what we were discussing. The supposed numbers you pointed to don't come from the IRS.
keep believing that. Hope your car doesn't get stolen.
Which is indisputably a problem with our society.
I wasn't aware that it had to be socketed to be open?
Has absolutely zero to do with either openness or ARM.
When I hear "complete" replacement for Explorer, I think a replacement Windows shell, not "just" a replacement file manager.
I'm not sure that running an ad means what you think it does. Businesses market against their competitors all the time.
ARM is significantly more open than x86.
You're correct, Raleigh isn't in tornado alley. Raleigh also gets a fraction (somewhere around 1/3rd) of the tornadoes that St Louis does. Whereas St Louis gets as many tornadoes as most of whatever YOU consider "tornado alley".
Then you clearly weren't reading.
I never claimed otherwise.
