This is inaccurate. They let it go a lot, but they used it happily the minute you got on their wrong side, and it absolutely was enough.

That's just a very light beginning, a prolog, not more. Imagine Facebook with all its data run by the state, and fully used.

What I meant was that it was "all over Europe" only because a half of it was communist, not that only communist states had public telecoms and/or the entire Europe was communist. I'm very sure at least the eastern part w

Why? We're on a free market. Surely they could simply add a big surcharge. I'd expect their insurance to go way up too.

I never said only communist states could own/owned telecoms. A lot of these changes - even in the west - came to be after communism in Europe has fallen.

You picked one example where it doesn't fit while there are at least 8 EU countries that did exactly what I said. BTW yes here in Central/Eastern EU we deem France very very leftist, just few small steps away from full-on socialis

Only because of the communist past. Most states privatized these operators and the yellow pages continued to be published by them as private companies without any need for regulation.

I don't know what relevance this has to the fact that any brands of anarchism anywhere were as bad or worse than the US ever was, and (unfortunately - I'd really like them to succeed) never better. > widespread institutions run

It wasn't anything like the distinct European institution in these places, which was hell anyways - there was a good reason why these people risked death and went to America.

No, it was at best the same, US was never worse - and only much better after the abolition. The sad fact is that these anarchist places devolved into feudalism/slavery and then straight into warlordism. The only difference was that the

The problem with criminality is that what we feel like is absolutely irrelevant, which is why this is a big mistake. The fact is that weed is criminal in France/elsewhere in Europe and that is a problem that must be recognized because

Legal criminal activity is an oxymoron. The legal system defines what is criminal, and that has nothing to do with morality. And even though I'd tend to agree, I absolutely don't understand why you're making a connection to c

It's not about ownership of the URL. It's about ownership of the token itself - the interesting thing is who issued it, how it got to you. Think downloading photocopied Mona Lisa VS obtaining the original directly from Leonardo VS

Pages can do whatever, it's not like I really notice if it loads in 1 or 10 ms. But torrents definitely are capable of using the whole connection, as well as any downloads from Microsoft servers and many local Linux distro mirrors, Doc

I was a contractor for a few F500 and all of them had separate DevOps teams that we were supposed to interface with; we didn't even have access to the cloud console. But I was also a contractor for few large companies (but nowhere near

You're looking at it from the SW dev angle, but DevOps is very interesting from the management angle too and you can leave stuff like K8s to some DevOps engineers after you've done your consulting. I mean stuff like GitOps/tr

Well my phone (Samsung S9+) can do like 12 hours of Node.js+VSCode coding while using BT keyboard and mouse. Not bad IMHO. And the USB-C port of this phone can be used with a usual dock to connect it to a screen and wired peripherals.

Maxthon browser used to use IE engine. It was done because Firefox engine was hard to separate from the browser (still the case today) and WebKit wasn't ready for use at least until 2005 (when it was open sourced).

Persistent in this case doesn't mean forever. It goes away when you stop smoking for a while.

Free entry - but for those going for the religious service. That's not me. At least that's how it was all around northern Italy few years ago when I visited.

Damn dude - let's look at some data. This feat of ingenuity requires cca $25k - but distributed over 5 years. How many family households in the US could pay $5k/year? 3/4 of all US family households have income over $50k, mor

The same in EU - e.g. in Italy, if you want to see a church from the inside, tourists pay a lot while the locals don't.

Yeah, and there's the difference - putting it on a blockchain is incredibly permanent, and might not be easily attributable to a person.
