HPE Instant On is pretty nice. Zero problems over the last seven years. It literally just works, including seamless handoffs between multiple APs.

Let's look at an actual case study of a police state. I think we can agree that a state-controlled paramilitary force executing a political opponent in broad daylight, on camera, is pretty far along the "police state" spectru

We do, objectively speaking. We have free elections, viable new political parties, working mechanisms of feedback from the population to politicians, and a constitution keeping up with the times (we had a constitutional change just this yea

How is it worse than I suggested? There's no "surveillance", for all intents and purposes it's just a hole in functionality requiring age verification to be filled. Article 1 doesn't guarantee that as a kid I can us

It's no more "warrantless search" than object recognition in your photo app. Signal deliberately misrepresents the policy, which is about connecting (already existing, local) object recognition to (already existing, local) es

It absolutely doesn't. However, the argument doesn't work when it's about connecting the "is the user a kid" bit to the existing and constantly running object recognition (phone cameras already run skin detection al

Ironically, the very OP statement is exactly that: trying to make the world a worse place because they believe that that is how the world works. The solution to avoiding dictatorship is engaging in politics and preventing dictatorship direc

This is really disingenuous coming from Signal who pioneered secure compute architecture for a number of useful features [1][2]. On-device checks are no more "surveillance" than Signal's private contact discovery is, and the

> There are various other potential methods to verify one's age, all of which are forbidden by OFCOM. Account age, zero-knowledge proofs, key signing, some kind of OAuth thing, physical tokens that require proof of age to buy, etc.

What compelled you to write this? It's just a random point having no relationship to what you're replying to. Why have you typed this and pressed "reply"?

The question is completely different from the point I was making. "X did bad things on their own" and "Y had absolutely no relationship with X at any point" are two points so blindingly obviously different that I'm

I don't think anyone engaging in a good faith discussion would make the conclusion you just made.

You can't just skip the currently present and urgent defence requirements because they're "politically sensitive" and then go twenty years back to support your point. But even if you want to do that, why don't you g

"People who have seen the state of the military first hand are saying that we need to fund the military" is not really shocking or sinister.

Why? Have you seen what Russia is doing to Ukraine? What's wrong with a European company working on not letting the same (or worse) repeat in the Baltic states or Poland?

> Car ownership costs are the second biggest expense for most households after rent, and self-driving cars cut this in half. Living in a hostel with a shared bathroom can cut the biggest expense (rent) by more than half. Would you?

Sure, more people would use them, but it doesn't mean that the majority of people would trade normal housing with dedicated bathrooms (that are used only for a fraction of the day) for that. Normal housing market didn't die when d

I found Phil's lab content [1] [2] indispensable for just this. Phil is a great communicator and gives in-depth explanations, so I didn't just watch most of his youtube, but also bought his mixed signals course and was very happy

Do you live in a dorm with a shared bathroom? Most of your home is only used a few times a day. People buy cars because it's a little bubble of home away from home. They store their stuff in there, it smells like them, and they don&#x2

You keep saying "loitering" and then use one way ranges. If "loitering", where does the time on station come from? Are the drones refuelled? Do they land or do they just crash when they run out of fuel? Or is "loite
