Yes you are, when talking about the poisoned cake. Poisoning it is a crime. > because you do something for free doesn't mean your actions don't have consequences. Of course there are consequences - society is a closed system. T

You are confusing legal and societal obligations, again. OpenSource maintainers and coders don’t owe you anything, so please stop pretending that they do.

You can use a smart plug that turns on when the battery drops below 20%. I’m going to use this kind of automation for a tablet with HomeAssistant in kiosk mode.

It's super difficult to rent a flat in Western Germany. There are literally long queues for viewing a single flat in Berlin. It's slightly better in the rest of Germany, but still difficult.

I wasted 10 minutes trying to find the pricing page. There’s no way I’m going to use an app that deliberately hides the pricing information.

Yes, and this is exactly the reason why root access should be possible for every device, without jailbreak.

Suck for what? There’s plenty of use cases for old devices. It’s not for you (or a corporation) to decide what’s good for me.

It's actually the opposite. 3-way handshake is the way to check that the communication channel is established and humans do it all the time. - hey! - what? - we need to talk.

I'd recommend you to read on what exactly these tier 1s are doing. Hint: they provide transport. It's technically impossible for them to control L7 for the most of the apps traffic. But that actually doesn't matter in the con

What is interchangeable, your lie about "it's trivial to shut down" and your bs about "oh but that's too difficult"? Those are two different things, even though both of them are not true. And sure, you missed m

Internet is decentralized as in - it's divided into multiple autonomous systems under local control of the owners. Your examples are most likely about some github repo or a steam app blocked, but the thing is - that's not Internet

That was a nice change of direction from "it's trivial to shut down" to "how many users are capable". And the answer is - basically every single one of them is capable, it's just a matter of motivation. The rig

Oh yeah, just for a second I thought it wasn’t irony. Let’s set up the guardrails.

That’s not the only silly thing they did. Ansible is awful.

> racism against white people is a great idea Perhaps not all Americans know this, but not all white men of the world are responsible for the sins of the American fathers.

When somebody gives you a greatly oversimplified explanation of a very complex issue you can be absolutely sure that you’re being manipulated. This is especially true when the message is given in a condescending tone.

Every single time in emacs/vim posts there’s a guy who knows better than me what is better for me, without even knowing me and my reasoning. There is a lot of reasons people use modal editing, but we didn’t realize that all of them don

> Do you use a smartphone? We have a saying that loosely translates to “If the barn burns down, so does the house”. The meaning is that it’s not really wise to let the house burn down if the barn is burning.
