I guess what finnn meant is that nobody can actually stop you from ignoring moxie's statement.

Didn't Signal have some weird licence restriction saying that non-official clients are not allowed to connect to official servers? How does this client bypass it? Can I use it to text a friend who uses the official servers?

One crucial difference that seems to break the analogy is that money is a utilitarian tool. It doesn't have an absolute, “true” price or way of managing it. Anything that makes people feel happy and economy grow is good, and is “true”

You don't even have to look at extremes like Oli London (thanks for the link, them/they/kor/ean are awesome!) for an example. In the past few years, whenever I hear about something new American wokes are suggesting or so

If you use Tridactyl, you can quickly jump to the search bar with “gi”. That's what I do.

Usual signatures do not allow homomorphic operations on the signed values. You will have to use special fully homomorphic signatures (FHS) for that. Suppose you did this and encrypted + signed your values with FHE and FHS as Sign(Encrypt(x)

Remember that FHE does not ensure authenticity of your data by default, it provides only privacy. If you send your server two encryped numbers and ask to multiply them for you, the server may send you their addition instead, or just encrypt

For anyone reading mbsync(1) and getting confused now: they have renamed Master-Slave into Far-Near in the latest versions.

I see the point. The Emacs way can also be seen as object-verb, it's just that object is given via selection. I don't have any objections to what you said, maybe I was wrong about Vim/Emacs difference. But. Kakoune is still s

M-spc just inserted a space for me. Do I need some package for it to work? What does your sequence of commands mean in English? I have no doubt that what I've shows can be done in Emacs. How natural is it to express? How much scripting

Vim provides a different, more efficient modal language for talking to the editor (which Kakoune further improves). Emacs on the other hand doesn't, it just gives you some ad-hoc shortcuts. Emacs's language is no different from th

Ropes is a performance improving technique, not a conceptually new model to think about strings, isn't it?

I'm not sure if Emacs qualifies as an editor for saving time. As you say yourself, Emacs people tend to play a lot with customization (and Emacs didn't seem useful with default config to me; what the hack is C-x 2?). At the same t

Yes, I agree. What you say reminds me of synchronous-asynchronous analogy I just made in another branch of this thread.

Even though I'm a big admirer of keyboard-driven interfaces, I don't think mouse should be eliminated. Mouse can be better than keyboard for some tasks. The problem I see is: a lot of things that non-modal, GUI interfaces use mous

It is explosive only when mixed with enough oxygen, much like gasoline or propane. Hindenburg did not explode, it burned (quite fast, I should add). As I understand, If you make a hole in hydrogen tank and set it on fire, it will just burn

The suspect may not an ID with them. Waiting until you identify the person is an extra opportunity for them to disappear. Naked mugshots can be a solution in some places. Some write that in Russia police can beat the confession out of you,

Some procedures are harder to violate without getting caught than others. Not all cops will cooperate with the corrupt ones. And if some of them want you to disappear, they will need to hide it from the others; procedures are intended to ma

How do you verify that the convict made the choice, and that they weren't forced to or tortured? This is a good reason to make it mandatory to publish mugshots. You can make mugshots visible only to some trusted list of human right act

Agreed, I'm very happy with their Kobo support. A great discovery for me was that Calibre can convert to KEPUB (subset of EPUB tailored for Kobo readers).
