In this seemingly forever argument, it seems there is some nuance in that Palestine is not Hamas and vice versa. One of the perspectives as I understand it is that Hamas is actually a threat to the existence of Palestine; the militaristic b

Purpose doesn't have the gravitas of raison d'être: the very reason for its existence; the thing without which it would have no reason to exist. I can't be too annoyed, for I can also be annoying and appreciate some level of

Thanks, damn. I usually look up that phrase so I can copy and paste it with the proper accents (and, uh, spelling).

I've pointed this out before, but there's an interview clip of Alex Karp saying that Trump won the election in a landslide[0]. If you look at the actual numbers, no one, with any idea of mathematics or statistics or even just basi

I don't see this is any different from Google and Meta allowing scammers to use their advertising platforms. Those acts need a serious clean up via heavily enforced regulation. It's a sewer out there.

The difference it makes might not be the point though. It might just be that this individual needs to be able to sleep at night. Either way, good for them, well done!

The "general" direction for an indoor roller skating rink is anti-clockwise. Having said that, I was recently told by a figure skater that they're always coached to perform their spins clockwise (ie. Turn towards the left). T

So a realtime whois lookup is performed when the request to the DNS server is made, and if the domain was only registered within X days/weeks, then return 0.0.0.0 (or other such blocking method). See, I've outbuilding tried compil

Do you know by which mechanism they recognize newly registered domains in order to block them?

I don't know and it makes literally no difference (to me, it may make a difference to people with more patience to dig into deep unverifiable theoreticals). In the movie The Thirteenth Floor, the main character breaks out of his simula

The one thing that makes me not afraid of death is the number of people, good and bad, rich and poor, who have succeeded at it before me.

According to the current administration, almost half of the US is considered a political enemy of the current administration. Soon they might be pushing for Operating Systems to gather political party preference information, so they can kno

Nope. That's a long way from grasping it. That's seeing it from a distance and understanding the general shape. I may just be defining 'grasp' differently to you though.

> you can't just assume that existence is bounded by your living memories I was going to raise that, but couldn't find a short enough way to describe it properly. Something like: Existence beyond what you can actually remember

I'm going to say it will be similar to the experience prior to birth / conception, ie. we were nothing, and to nothing we shall return. It's a scary feeling if you can grasp it. Grasping non-existence from within existence is

In various different projects I've been involved in where we've been implementing (not developing) software solutions I've noticed that, at management level, there is little regard given to the level of maintenance required o

This account was created an hour ago. Personally, this makes me suspicious of calling out mods for censorship. This, in turn, makes me suspicious about the truthiness of any of the information presented. I'm not agreeing or disagreeing

No, that's fair enough, and probably the correct answer overall: Find the size that best fits the "thing". Hypocrisy is invoked, however, when a party that rallies around "small government" as core to their ideology

I feel like I'm 'old' to say this, but I'm consistently surprised (which means it's at least some kind of a personal flaw) that companies put press releases out on a third party platform. They have their own website

I use it to weigh down my transportable home in tornado alley. Hasn't failed yet. Density, more-so than size, is important in such an application.

"sussed it out" = "worked it out" is a fairly normal slang-ish phrase where I'm from (Australia).

College degrees aren't the differentiator they used to be (and I'm not sure if they used to be either).

Well said. I think the only reason I remain staunchly independent is because I've never found anything that has had enough common ground with enough people to allow me to profit (to any degree whatsoever) in such a way as to corrupt th

Surveillance is not education, and it is education that will reap long term improvement. Education is hard but effective whilst surveillance is easy and ineffective. Guess which option politicians take?

Excellent point on allow listing. I feel like I'm moving further and further in that direction - primarily due to the block lists becoming un-manageable in their size / memory needs. OPNSense is beautifully flexible for this.

Republicans / Conservatives, whatever the terminology, generally have an aim of "small government"; minimal intervention. This is not a bad thing in and of itself. I was attempting to point out the hypocrisy that they choose

I was just looking at the One recently and lamenting it only has two network ports. I would have bought one if it had three. Instead I went with a Gl.inet device with three interfaces.
