Well, that solution is also perfectly applicable if we were to colonize a desert, or Antarctica, or the ocean floor. Still, all of those are easier than colonizing Mars even if we throw unprecedented amounts of resources at the problem.

Worst case would be healthcare systems collapsing, and a majority of essential workers falling ill, dying, or simply refusing to go work. It would possibly cause severe supply chain disruptions, which in its turn could result in local food

Is there any data to back that up? My necdotal observations from Denmark says it's the opposite; the ones who end up walking the streets are pretty much trafficking victims only.

Adding my voice to this. It would be an amazing tool for web work -- the vectorized images look far better than the very small jpeg images used in lazy loading today.

Apart from the breaking of various old taboos? Trafficking. I'm sure there are plenty of prostitutes who deliberately chose that path, but an uncomfortably high number of prostitutes are victims of human trafficking.

Also, packet radio, and semi-related, the good old IrDA ports in computers and PDA's in the late 90's/early 00's.

My original point was just that; public housing is not something you just do with a one-time investment, and it requires a serious long-term commitment to keep it viable. I agree that many of the previous projects failed to commit to keepin

That works both ways. We have an actual bell as a doorbell. People knock because they don't realise they can ring the actual bell. -.-

In general, large public housing projects may seem very nice at first, but once the maintenance costs start going up (20-30 years later) it will become increasingly difficult for a publicly owned business to avoid increasing rent. Old build

Yeah, that might just be me. What you are describing sounds completely alien to me. I still struggle with comprehending why people insist on bringing the basic stuff online -- my security cameras should not require Internet access -- but

Agreed. You mentioned ML though, and that's a different matter. Checking hashes is definitely viable, but only works for known good examples.

Because there's a shitload of cheap surplus 2.4 GHz parts in stock now that everyone wants 5 GHz capability? Also, many people have really, really crappy routers, walls that 5 GHz signals have issues penetrating, and so on.

Yeah, it obviously does happen from time to time, but is it normal? My anecdotal data point: 3 devices all isolated on their own AP with no way to talk to eachother or the rest of the world. 50 is a lot. 120 is just insane. :)

My guess: Client-side scan for certain keywords to identify grooming and some kind of signature-based identification of known child-porn media. Basically what I assume Messenger does today, but on the local devices instead. The general publ

You will need to have the database accessible for the process serving the web page and there's no way around that. When using a database stored elsewhere, the config file will still contain the user name and password, but the user&#x27

That was one of the more common causes of crashes back in the AmigaOS days; one program crashed and while doing so it screwed up the OS and other running applications as well. It worked quite well as long as your applications were well-beha

That's one hell of an advantage on the other hand; not only can we move entire populations in a fairly short time-frame (by simply grabbing our things and walk/run there), we can also adapt to the new surroundings and find ways to
