It's the best. For people who want the absolute best, they're willing to pay whatever it takes.

The constitution prohibits search without a warrant, and cruel and unusual punishment, but here we are. What's "legal" doesn't really matter.

My father works for a big pharma company, which means they have to listen to the federal government or risk being shut down by the FDA (which would be easy for Trump to do). He uses this an excuse for the company's complacency, and by

Trump has maintained he has the power to declassify things with his mind alone, so I'm sure this is entirely true. Whatever they were talking about, bam, it's no longer classified. At least they're using Signal, I guess. Can

Do you have a source for that? I assume they just sold browsing data, since that's the easiest way to make money in this sort of space (or, I guess, used it to better figure out what kind of credit card you'd consider applying for

I figured it just made money by tracking and selling your browsing history, it's owned by PayPal after all. I was shocked to learn about the cookie-stuffing. That's like, arguably a crime.

Even in more modern times, the details of how a population of people came to be can get lost. For instance, nobody actually knew where the Romani people actually came from until the 1800s or so, and even then, the theory of a migration out

Hacker News is a small subsection of the internet. I think the majority of people, probably 90% or more, simply do not care that much.

They'll murder you in cold blood, and get away with it. They'll move to another county and get a raise. They'll steal your possessions and drain your bank account, and get away with it. They'll share your nude photos and

I believe with software-based encryption (LUKS and the like), the decryption key ends up being stored in RAM, which will always present a risk. And TPM-based solutions don't have this problem. Could be wrong though.

I mean, yeah. They knew they were about to make a ruling that was unpopular with the masses. The Supreme Court only exists because of America's love affair with British common law. It's a relic of a bygone era, like the drinking a

Things I cannot (easily) replace, such as contacts and photos, I keep with Google (this will change once I run out of free space, most likely). For passwords, I use Bitwarden. Everything else is either account-based, or can backed up using

A large part of the FBI's job is to shut these militias down. You can't grow a resistance movement without making some noise, and the US government is obviously very keen on maintaining the status quo. Examples from the past are e

In your car crash example, that police report could be a key piece of evidence in a civil case that causes one party to need to pay up rather than the other. The amount they have to pay could be enough to ruin their life. Of course, that&#x

Be coming homeless isn't a problem with the person, it's an outcome of the system we live in. The population of homeless people would end up probably where it was when you killed them all. Though I do wonder how long that would ta

At high levels (19), it gives similar ratios to xz and 7z. But you're correct that the main advantage is the comparatively fast compression and very fast decompression speeds.
