Exchanges of goods and services are taxable here. I fail to see why it should be applied to everything else, but not personal data. It's just intellectual property exchanging hands, no?

Based on my personal experience providing support for s/mime setups, you'd need: 1) A centralised solution for managing keys and certificates, connected to a login that the customer will be able to recover in pretty much any situa

A beautiful vision, but not practically viable. The average user isn't ready to handle private keys -- many can barely be trusted with their email passwords. This means you either need centrally issued certificates for each domain, or

25k+ hits/minute here. And that's just the scrapers that doesn't just identify themselves as a browsers. Not sure why you believe massive repeated scraping isn't a problem. It's not like there is just one single act

It's a hobbyist project. It doesn't need any "worth" apart from the joy the author got from it. Kudos to the author for doing this _and_ sharing it with the world.

Today is rainy and windy. I look forward to going outside with the missus for a moment to plant a few trees. That won't change the fact that my knees are hurting, that the economy sucks, or that our eastern neighbor is waging a genocid

Modsec should be able to handle it.

Which part of it is overblown? The loss of trust in US being a stable enough partner to trust them, or the outrage regarding US bullying tactics in international politics? Threatening to invade your allies has consequences, and the damage h

My recollections of being bullied is several decades old by this point, and it's probably something that varies from school to school, but I am convinced that bullies won't stop until they are forced to stop. The means may be verb

I live down-wind of most of said plastic garbage where I live. Trust me: by now I'd happily pay the neighbours to clean their own plastic garbage from my field. Right now it costs me a day of work every spring to get rud of it.

So, everyone that buys food?

I think we already had this debate in the 80's. Only it was about cassettes and VHS-tapes.

The social insurance (arbetsgivaravgift in Sweden IIRC) is paid by the employee. Apart from that, many compare the salaries in Copenhagen and Malmö, which is obviously unfair with Copenhagen being the national capital, while Malmö was a run

It looks like one of those subdomain names used by scammers who use hijacked DNS accounts to create subdomains on legitimate domains and use them for phishing. _IF_ that is the case, then it must have been in the UPS end.

Nice, thanks! :)

Both are excellent books, worth a read.

I mean, apart from a few kidnapped ones in the 1800's, few Sentinelese have ever interacted with the rest of us. Human-Orca contact, on the other hand, is relatively common.

Where I live, decapitating the chicken with a hatchet held in the other hand is the norm. The brain dies/falls unconcious within seconds even without stunning. It is messy if you don't know how to do it, though. If you don't

It's easy to say when others feel the same way, but I'd like to believe it's mostly a matter of adapting expectations to reality since there's no realistic way to get 8 billion people agree to what the proper way forward

I was thinking more in the line of e-Fuel and the like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrofuel But sure, if hydrogen can be used, stored and then consumed then I can't see why it couldn't be a good idea, a

This. It, along with diesel, is also the power source for most wheeled veichles in current operation on the planet. I'm sure EV's is going to take over in most areas given enough time. Until then, it's only logical to run ICE

Absolutely! Alas, the Finnish administration seems more interested in using areas with cheap electricity to attract electricity-intensive industry rather than, say, exporting it to other countries. Heck, in neighbouring Sweden they have iss

Too bad there's no infrastructure in place for producing synthetic fuel with the surplus electricity. It might not be efficient, but if we're producing surplus electricity anyway, then even inefficient storage/usage won'

Can confirm. It's the norm up here. Wikipedia says the practice was imported from the US after WW2.

Yes, animal husbandry is an integrated part of food production, but there is merit to the suggestion of _reducing_ meat consumption; most of the world has increased meat consumption per capita quite a lot the last 20 years and going back to

Windows 2000 was fairly solid as long as the device drivers weren't too exotic.

Yeah, Bing has gone completely nuts the last six months or so. They'll happily send the equivalent of a small DDoS at sites hosted on shared hosting, knocking them completely offline for a while. Nuts.

by 2000UltraDeluxe 3y ago
But how can you trust it to provide accurate information? When I've played around with Bing, I've been seeing hallucinations and outright false data pop up quite regularly. My initial assessment of LLVMs is that they can be great

More pressure to keep profits high due ongoing financial shenanigans. Add consumers with little to no options, and the expectation that the common good is more important than profits. It turned out profits were more important, and now peopl
