Personally i think a lot of people do threads because it's easier to write. Also you can take days or weeks of writing threads in public, updating them with new information, without appearing to do "stealth" edits, or adding

I'm not sure that will work, as Wine will probably break the DRM, which is the reason that non-Chrome OS Linux doesn't get Netflix 4k in the first place.

As you said, workers are also consumers. Each landlord wants to grow his GDP. In a pre-pandemic setting offering higher wages to attract labourers would have been useless to this goal as all of the land was already being farmed and there wa

It wasn't but you had the opposite of the effect that you have now. Right now the top 1% are getting a lot of the additional wealth that's being created, while the bottom 99% stay mostly the same, or improve at slower speeds. So y

Definitely, 6-7 bits might be enough to identify you. But Chrome allows for plenty of fingerprinting methods of its own. You can't just install add ons that disable the features or feed bogus data. Then you are the one guy who uses fin

Pretty cool stuff! > When using a weekly watch-list with a size of 20 variants (less than 0.5% of the weekly average of new variant sequences), EWS flagged 12 WHO designated variants out of 13 (Fig. 4.A), with an average of 58 days of le

A 1% browser (and Firefox is solidly above that) means approximately 6-7 bits of entropy. If Firefox's fingerprinting protection removes at least these many bits, then it's worth using Firefox.

Yeah this is what the great reset is about. It has advantages and disadvantages. Advantage is less incentives to produce short lived products. Disadvantage is that individuals have way less control over things.

You are right, NAT is why the internet still works in the first place. However, NATs have many issues, like severely harming peer to peer capabilities. There is also additional complexity. My ISP frequently has downtimes of their NAT infras

The comparison is wrong. ipv6 is already fully developed, while ipv4 is getting crowded. There are already more devices connected to the internet than there are ipv4 addresses. Already Android devices alone are more than 3 billion, PCs 1.5

From what I saw, both Intel and AMD are trying to adopt hybrid CPUs that hopefully have a power consumption curve closer to M1 systems. So I hope that this improves in the future.

But you can't just say that the flag is stable while the output may change. Third party tools might rely on the output. This is okay for things read by humans (say the error messages) but fails for things that tools are parsing, like d

Google Pixel phones are phones though, and not personal computer devices like M1 Macs are. Phones have traditionally been more locked down. A fairer comparison would be to Chromebooks, which do have a screw to let you flash a different BIOS
