The real question is no if it's the energy of the future. The real question is it going to be in time to save us? Even if we knew exactly how to make fusion reactor today, how long would it take for it to effectively replace all the fo

The problem with server side ad insertion as you call it is the lack of accountability. It gives way too much power to the publisher: they want the ad money and therefore have all the incentives to commit fraud. At the moment, having the ad

StandardNotes makes daily encrypted exports to your Google drive, mailbox, and others. That's not self hosted but it's texts files so... Good enough for me.

That extraordinary claim would require extraordinary evidence ... which the JST may provide eventually. But that wouldn't entirely suprise me as inflation, dark matter and dark energy, have always seemed to me to be a confession that w

> There is no chance of a typical system owner having the time and skill... Hence the suggestion to make it tamper obvious. As for the attack surface, it is true, but it's a separate problem. You don't have to bloat your firmwa

I have argued the same as you, it needs to be open source to fix the first two points. For the third one, nobody is forcing you to buy a specific product, but yes, it will be hard to avoid. But like for vaccines, individual consent is at od

Alert fatigue is real but silent rootkits are way worse. Also, it's not just about booting windows or the OS, it's about the UEFI, which even fewer people are going to want to tinker with.

That's why things like the Pluton processor and TPMs are useful. (A rain of downvotes falls on me) Seriously, even good old BIOS is susceptible to rootkits, there has been tons of them. So no crying over UEFI please. We need a fully si

Don't worry, blocking p2p is the next step and is extremely easy to do. China has done it already and it's very effective: * Force every service provider to register their IPs and domains (for CDN use) * Force every ISP to do stat

It's not that the origin story is not important, it's not that people don't care, it's that it is a distraction. It doesn't help solve the crisis. The article makes the comparison with a nuclear bomb. This is a bad

I can answer this in one word: privatisation. The neo-liberal economy is at total odds with this industry. For a private enterprise to succede at nuclear power, it would take someone crazy and with very deep pockets like Elon Musk, but even

What would that change? If this->count was a pointer you'd still have to de-reference it explicitly. Or am I missing the point of your argument?

This seems to be complete BS to me: all I see in these maps is a lot of confirmation bias, the author really sees what he wants to see. Some maps do overlap very well but in that case it only looks interesting because we want to see a causa

Not really mysterious or a surprise. Passing count as a reference was a huge red flag from the very beginning.

Then I guess you don't care about neither the environment nor money, so it's kind of a moot point. (I am not talking about using it in reverse / heat-pump ONLY)

Also, even if your devices on standby draw the equivalent of £30 of energy per year, and even if you turned them off completely, you would still not save £30 a year if you live in a country where you need heating in the winter. Because apar

by fguerraz 5y ago
Yes, I use ipset on openwrt to block all known public DoH IPs. That is still not enough. You need custom DNAT rules to forward all queries to port 53 to your local resolver (at my home at least, Google and Garmin devices insist on using the

They definitely have a bias for the left. But they are, objective enough to be the first to report on, for example, embarrassing campaign funding issues from Mélenchon's last campaign, a few weeks before the election taking place these
