RDP is the future? Makes sense. It's been a while since money was poured into networking.

>home computers are replaced by thin clients Ah, but that's the genius of this circuit around the tech cycle. You need a "thick client" to access those subscription services, as running the (web) interface requires shamefu

I refuse to use VS Code on principle. It has captured a staggering percentage of software development, across many software disciplines. Somehow ARM/Keil has been persuaded to go all-in on VS Code and will deprecate their "legacy&

Where "curve" = "exporting shiny toys without thought to long-term consequences". Good to see the EU is finally catching up to the harms of this and other US web tech.

At 170Wh per kg (and ignoring the weight of the containers and any safety considerations), 20GWh of lithium battery would weigh 120,000 tons. This is a lot more than a typical Panamax DWT of 60,000 tons, which also needs to include the ship

No-one is "speaking out against" the one who is pointing out any wider discrimination, beyond whatever aribtrary circle you choose to draw. What is being "spoken out against" is the idea that taking the moral (or politic

As a person, treating everyone the same is an excellent response (and even a political one, if you wish) to counteract a system of discrimination.

That's easy to work out from the parent comment. They conclude that 16,000 tons of batteries are needed for propulsion, with a total capacity of 3GWh. For a typical 40kton cargo ship, that leaves 24,000 tons for more batteries, for a e

If those are your concerns, then why is it so important that this freedom of anonymous expression only happens on the internet? I think what you are really asking for is private, encrypted comms but only to a certain subset of people. Other

>Not being able to be at least pseudo-anonymous has a real chilling effect on speech and expression. Even if there are laws in place protecting such rights, people will self-censor when knowing they are being watched. This supposed golde

Arguably, those early adopters of online services were "occupiers" of a system designed and funded by military and academic goverment bodies.

If only it were that simple. To fix the analogy, imagine that every other kids' dad left the liquor cabinet unlocked and allowed them to carry liquor around anytime they liked.

He's not wrong. Nothing has fundamentally changed in battery technology since 2020 - power densities are about the same. A "long haul" EV tractor unit gets about 500km range and weighs ~4 tons more than a diesel equivalent.

The government already sanctions other communications, along with every other aspect of your life. Why does the internet get a pass?

Further evidence that a national firewall is a prudent idea. What kind of careless government would permit anyone in the world to have unfettered, anonymous access to their citizens' thoughts and minds?

Maybe they are, but they would also need to ensure a well-defined subset of HTML and also show that the subset is a reglar (Chomsky Type 3) grammar. It seems that even the very conceptually simple example given by the questioner is impossib

Our response to Covid was just the accelerant. We're lucky, in a way, as we can see the outcomes of many current policies a lot quicker.

This book loves to berate those who lived through mass hysteria and didn't notice, yet was printed in 2021 and didn't discuss Covid.
