I wonder if there's the stat somewhere but I'm sure a sizeable portion is at least half Brazilian so it makes them a "half"—as Japanese like to say—which they don't tend to regard very highly. It is indeed a margina

It's not directly related to your post, but Japan has a very significant Brazilian population that live in very specific parts of Japan. Toyota[1], and its prefecture Aichi, are known for having a Portuguese-speaking population and the

To everyone working at Big Tech: you should be ashamed of helping those oligarchs make their plans reality by working for them. Thanks to you, privacy, free computing and democracy will disappear.

I agree that the GDPR could have gone much further but making data harvesting illegal was never the point—and this is not my opinion. Websites could show a small banner that says "hey, we use cookies for targeted advertising; click her

The priority of the GDRP was that you needed your users' consent to process their personal data. The industry answer—cookie banners—is something that the industry created because their tracking incentives were higher than their users&#

I had a completely different experience. First 30 or so hours were pretty inconvenient: dry eyes, bandage lens that would cause itching and general photophobia. The Doctor removed my bandage lens after less than 48 hours and the same day I

If you have other questions, I would be happy to answer them. But I'm just one of many thousands person. I think all Doctors would tell you that you should do the surgery because they have a financial incentive to tell you so. However,

The Doctor clearly saw that my eye hadn't fully healed and therefore diagnosed that it was the reason I wasn't seeing perfectly. Don't get me wrong, it is still far better than when I didn't wear my glasses. So even if i

In all offices I worked in, less than 10% had their own water bottle. The others barely drank 2 cups per day. They go to the toilet at most twice per workday. Baffling.

But on a homelab you can host any service you want and start/stop it whenever you need to. Sure cloud storage might cost less in the short-term, but if you need more storage or more services, a selfhosted option is far cheaper. VPS are

I want to give my thoughts to answer a few comments in this thread. If the atomic bomb was first developed by the Japanese, they wouldn't have hesitated to use it just like the USA did. Does it make it more right? Absolutely not, but a

For some reason I can't find the RSS feed for the newsletter; anyone that did who could post it here? I can only find the one for the "announcements"—which seem a lot less relevant to follow the progress of the project.
