I mean the US works like this, it isn't suprising a US state also does.
If someone from the US does something illegal on your site (which is legal in your country), depending on how much they want you will end up in a US prison.
Before the US decided that betting online was OK, betting sites had travel advisories for their employees not to travel to the US.
then you have an extension with full access to everything.
unless it's one of the big guys, devs either sell the extensions or get hacked, it has happened multiple times.
how big of a deal Terminator 2 was and how big movie releases can be. Like, nothing in the MCU era or the Star Wars prequels and sequels comes remotely close
I'm in that age range and I lived through T2 and Endgame and I'll have to disagree.
T2 is one of my favorite movies of all time but experiencing the Endgame premiere, as a hardcore fan, with the other hardcore fans, was something else, it had the whole teather howling during the climax.
I also get that T2 is "easier" to enjoy in the sense that you need to watch like 22 movies to really get into Endgame.
and AI deniers were saying we were gonna get boiled like frogs, instead we got free heated swimming pools, wait a minute ...
It's cool, but I could have done it 2.45 weeks!
three letter guys would extract your key with a wrench.
Are people still using this to justify no encryption? that comic sure did a lot of damage.
Mr. Nobody should be able to decide how much they want to protect themselves. If it's unstable maybe Mr Nobody is fine with it.
Raising the cost of achieving this to enterprise budgets, just because, seems suspect. Specially when there are so many attempts to undermine secure computing by the powers that be. [1] [2]
There are many much cheaper ways to force you to give up your keys.
Yes, but that requires the Mr Nobody knowing you have access to them, which in itself is a big deal.
But let's think about it, why would they torture Mr Nobody by wrench? News stations would like to hear that, or do you think they will make Mr Nobody disappear too? Would they take those risks for a Mr Nobody?
Maybe the most realistic scenario is that people sometimes can hold onto their passwords. Scumbag or not. [3]

I guess that would drive housing prices down a little because so much of the population would be living with their parents until they save up enough for a down payment, which might not occur in their lifetime
you mentioned supply and demand, if everyone is struggling to buy houses, downpayments wouldn't just go down a little.
in the end, everyone needs housing, every single house would be occupied just as now, but instead of having renters being squeezed by supply and demand you would have owners.
how is that a worse scenario?
let developers have rent, they are the risk takers, they deserve it.
I agree that using cookies is better for web sessions but I absolutely despise those using the boogeyman to shoo people away from stuff they don't like, instead of asking them to use their brains.
they are not secure.
They are secure if they fit your risk profile, a blanket statement like this is just disinformation.
Don't treat your peers like idiots.
Did you miss the sarcasm or has GTA6 become some sort of anomalous memetic agent that makes anyone who tries to work on it not be able to finish it regardless if it's human or AI?
So your argument is "if you give a mouse a cookie"? There are plenty of companies and they just throw us a deb and we do the rest.
And even if it were a valid point, why would eye even waste a second of your life argumenting against Linux when it's being asked to a company with a projected 1 trillion dollars IPO.
What's your stake here?
After decades of heavily using the computer keyboard (every day, all day) I started getting pain in my wrists.
I got an ortholinear keyboard that looks like a rectangular grid, just 12 by 4 keys around 10-15 years ago.
I don't recall the last time I felt pain in my hands, completely gone.
speedtest has a lot of volunteers hosting local servers, which you need to do a good last mile speed test.
that capilarity is not something you can achieve overnight.
maybe the old tools are prevailing for a good reason.
I prefer people to email me because half of the time they figure out their problems while writing them.
it's not an absolute rule but people who don't do their homework gravitate towards calls and messaging because they just don't prepare their questions.
asynchronous communication puts the burden on the sender, where it belongs.
Netflix streams in 4K/UHD (15Mbps)
proper 4k, like the one you watch from a blu-ray, will have peaks of 150mbps.
the 4k we see on streaming services is awfully overcompressed.
and yeah, you can see the difference, it's day and night.
For $3500 I can get 7-8 years of GLM
mind sharing where's the go to place to pay for open models?
This doesn't seem like a simple white collar crime. If the military are betting on the operations they will carry it's virtually espionage.
the very community they are trying to court
After all, we may be a just a data source and not their intended demographic all along.

Well he is, but I cannot forget being completely blown away by the lack of, I don't even know what to call it.
On a moment of worldwide shortage, this move didn't move masks to the US that were shelved in forgotten warehouses, they raised the price and left medical workers from poorer countries exposed.
What stops people from buying Chinese printers
Exactly the same thing that stops you from buying a generic inkjet printers.
Go check Amazon. There are none.
Some say the inkjet printer head is the secret sauce, but then yousearch for generic laser printers and there are none either.
Is every printer technology an uncrackable tech that has resisted decades of reverse engineering?
I mean during ww2 civilians and supply chains were bombed to hell and back.
now this is a "small", "far away" war, so killing civilians isn't expected, but for them a supplier of agricultural products is feeding the soldiers that will be stomping their heads if this keeps escalating.
I'm not justifying anyone here, I'm just pointing out how ridiculous it sounds when we try to define a set of rules to kill each other and then say they are violating them, when we know that the good guys bombed whole cities to the ground, and will bomb whole cities to the ground, when it matters.
there's so much hate in the region that this stuff will only end one way, and I personally don't want to see Iran winning this, but let's call war by it's name.
my tinfoil hat theory is that they make small features depend on new hardware.
for example, let's say the new os depends on m5's exclusive thumbnail generator accelerator, and let's say it improves speed by a 20%.
now, your M1 notebook than on previous OSes uses standard gpu acceleration for thumbnails will not have this specialized hardware acceleration, it will have software fallback that will be 90% slower.
you won't notice it a first thought because it's stuff, fast, but it eats a bit of the processor.
multiply this by 1000 features and you have a slow machine.
I don't know how else to explain how an ipad pro cannot even scroll a menu without stuttering, it's insane how fast these things were on release
jumping from the frying pan straight into the fire.
why on earth would you give Google or Apple more attestation power and control.
I can yawn on command. Rumbling my ears and edging swallowing it triggers a yawn 100% of the time
ideally, it should be political suicide to attempt to push something like this.
realistically, if it fails now due to public outrage, they will try to sneak it again in the future.
Long time ago I had a 10km 2.4ghz wifi link with directional antennas, it worked very well but the throughtput improved with rain.
Directional antenas are far from directional, they pick noise from everywhere.
In my opinion rain reduces that noise, and if the point to point has more than enough signal margin to keep operating at full speed, it ends up improving the link.
Something like horse blinders.
why don't they jam the satellites themselves?
Month 2: The Cracks Start Showing First production issue: a service kept crashing with OOMKilled errors. ... I spent three hours figuring out: ... What the difference between requests and limits even means
so he says before this he wouldn't shut up about k8s, but obviously didn't even read the documentation.
how do you expect to use a tool as encompassing as k8s without even understanding basic concepts?
give these guys an airplane and they will start googling how to take off when they are already speeding up on the runway.
you can ask the LLM for an adhoc report. it can look at the schema, run the queries and give you the results. of course you can just give it read access.
also the API was working fine while the dash was down.
if you don't have the keys make sure to grab them for the next one.
- How is it possible that other users of Aurora aren't experiencing this issue basically all the time? How could AWS not know it exists?
I know that there is no comparison in the user base, but a few years ago I ran into a massive Python + MySQL bug that:
1. made SELECT ... FOR UPDATE fail silenty 2. aborted the transaction and set the connection into autocommit mode
This basically a worst case scenario in a transactional system.
I was basically screaming like a mad man in the corner but no one seemed to care.
Someone contacted me months later telling me that they experienced the same problem with "interesting" consequences in their system.
The bug was eventually fixed but at that point I wasn't tracking it anymore, I provided a patch when I created the issue and moved on.
