The comment I was replying to is also whataboutism from Europe. It was Nazi's who didn't like free speech. Shutting down any sort of debate by yelling "far-right" at everything isn't a functioning democracy either.

All while Europe dabbles in outlawing and criminalizing opposition parties they’re deeming “far right”. Sure anyone who opposes unlimited unrestricted immigration is now “far right”. Regardless of opinion, democracy is about the people dete

Thanks for the details. Sounds more like OS level support being crap to me. The OS could and should maintain IPv6 preference tables.

The whole ping vs ping6 seems more likely than lazy developers.

IPv4 uses ARP which is just a half baked multicast. IPv6 is much better designed.

Sure, but I’d argue that it’s largely reduced stress rather than raw materialism. For example being able not to worry about paying both the electric bill and a child’s dental work this month. There’s many other research that corroborates th

Both sides are right. Life is cheap in many developing nations. My hope is that this tech could help governments in those regions to protect their citizens even when their GDP returns are significantly lower.

Zionist settlement started in the 1870’s on legally purchased land. Most of that land was uninhabited. Tel Aviv was founded on literal sand dunes in 1908 and is Israel’s most populated area. Jaffa was the closest Arab city which is still pr

That the US contributes doesn’t take away from the billions Israel did and does invest. The US defense contractors also get a big chunk of that aid. The US also gives similar levels of military aid to Egypt as well. The EU and US give billi

Israel invests in defending their civilians with technology like Iron Beam. In contrast the Gazan government strategically uses humans shields [2, 3] and despite this the majority of Palestinians still support starting this war by attacking

> 50 distinct issues? That's devastating. If these researchers found 50 issues, we all know there's more that 50 issues in the codebase. That's rough but for a systematic search of a large system it seems reasonable. There

I believe that FTL communication (if it's achievable) will start out in data centers at small scales. Perhaps millimeters. Possibly as an extension of Quantum Computing where some probabilistic asymmetry can be taken advantage of. The

Each Iron Dome interception cost many times more than the cost of the rockets. This will make it cheaper for other poorer nations to afford and operate.

Personally I think that defensive technology like this is fantastic. It means that innocent citizens will be protected from constant bombardment or thread of bombardment by cheap mass produced rockets or drones. Israeli civilians have faced

BTW, how do you feel about ActivityPub in general?

True Alpine is pretty snappy. I don't like using it as muslc has given me headaches before. Arch is faster generally too but not as much. Maybe there's something with systemd stuff.

This is awesome! Small projects like this that take off are fun to read. Maybe I'm imaging it but FreeBSD really seems to have far less bloat than Linux distros and better latency. I just setup a $4/mo FreeBSD VM on Vultr with 1G

Personally I just hope there’s a buffer overflow (underflow?) that lets us jailbreak this universe to get warp speed or FTL comms! More realistically it breaking down would hopefully give us a new physics frontier.

Ideally it'd just be software driven. Take an ultrasound scan, adjust, blast. In theory this could be done in milliseconds to counter patient movements. Pretty nifty really!

Don't cancer metastases have more to do with cancer mutations allowing the cancer cells to form new tumors? Some cancer types tend do not develop the ability to colonize new tumors while others do regularly.

Yet despite using systemd installing Tailscale on Manjaro and other Linux’s still can’t handle integrating with MagicDNS without some hackery. So far tailscale magicdns just works on FreeBSD. I second that systemd is great, for services. An
