I'm very sceptical about the claim that offshore wind is more expensive than nuclear. Licenses to operate offshore wind parks are auctioned in Germany, with interested parties bidding on the amount of subsidies they'll receive. Th

Do MTAs actually do it though?

I don't think it's appropriate to speculate about other people's neurodiversity. Also, for the most part he is "the project".

Does it matter what's more important though? He's the only one who gets to decide what he spends his time on.

That's really not the only thing that changed. Games are also massively more complicated today. It's one thing for three people getting a 2.5 MB single player DOS game reasonably bug free. It's an entirely different thing to

Well, digital services are much more complicated than a fridge, or a book. Not only that, but they also require a machine to run that is also orders of magnitude more complicated than a fridge or a closet.

It's not entirely clear what type of process actually lead YouTube to terminate this channel, so we can't know either. > there are other extra jurisdictional mechanisms that Google employ to make your life difficult as a creat

Well, if the user actually checks the signatures and remembers from their last visit that their should be one coming along with the software, maybe. That's a big if though. Considering there's no disadvantage in deploying HSTS an

Well that would highly depend on what I'm seeing. If it's a single user there might be an attack on the way against that user. If it's multiple users, there might have been a compromise of some credentials. It's definite

Slighlty offtopic, but it's ironic how a service with the tagline "Online backups for the truly paranoid" serves insecure connections to its website and doesn't employ HSTS. Especially since the user is expected to downl

There's a lot of value. For example, if you see failed logins against random user names like "dbadmin" or "root" it's likely just random scanning, but what if suddenly lots and lots of valid user names appear?

I haven't seen a case where the port is 2222. And I've seen a few cases because I helped quite a few people with firewalld/SELinux issues related to changing the SSH port.

One thing to keep in mind here is that there is no absolute security. There is only security against some specific threat. If the threat is "someone is specifically targeting you", then changing the port is indeed useless. However

It's weird how there's a stigma against frozen food when it's usually of much higher quality and retains much more nutrients and vitamins than any other form of conservation. And unless you live near to the coast, fish always

uMatrix is without a doubt used as a commercial trade mark. Again, commercial doesn't mean money is involved. It's also still used by the owner, as it's still listed in several extension stores. Trademark protection also does

Marks used in trade are automatically protected, just by their commercial use. uMatrix has been commercially used as a name, so it is a trade mark (nb: commercially here does not necessarily mean money is involved). Trademarks don't ne

Why would you need to buy "approved" chargers? If the vendor gets to dictate which chargers I buy, I'm worse off than before the days of USB charging. Also, a lot of official chargers are cheap, bulky and slow. Third party do

Having print as a statement was a mistake with a lot of downsides (see https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3105/ for the rationale). It would take quite a lot of effort to offer the new print function and the

The idea is that the lottery run by the state is fair, honest and less exploitative than a free market alternative. And if there's no legal lottery, an abusive free market alternative always emerges. And a bitcoin scam can rob you of t

Yeah. There is no modern consumption without detrimental effects. And the thing is that the total effects of a system are difficult to estimate even for experts. And when we talk about birds, let's not forget the devastating effect of

That may seem like bloat today, but in those days, web mail barely existed and was inferior. If anything, using the MUA bundled with your browser was less power-userish than using a stand-alone client.

Per this reasoning, producing The Wire or Breaking Bad and most of the "Western Canon" was already unnecessary. Humanity has produced enough written content in antiquity to keep you reading for a lifetime.

A lot of brilliant content just requires more time or investment than someone with a day job has. And arguably, creating content alongside a 40 hour job is a compromise on quality itself.
