I mean, not if they comply judiciously with EU law. It's not like Facebook have been famous for the care with which they have followed all the rules laid upon them.

Yeah, but they'll have way better chances if FB isn't around.

Surely, being literally banned kills the network effects quite quickly? If they sense blood in the water, you'll have Eurobook in a week, and that's that.

This is not an accurate description of anything. - Traffic analysis only works for a global adversary - Feds would need to control a very sizeable chunk of the network to deanonymize your HS, and you can use your own nodes (also see Vanguar

There is a very simple way to deal with the agent. Just don't answer any questions. Open the conversation, and then respond with "I want to cancel my subscription", no matter what they ask. If they ask if you want some other

The easy way to do this is to just connect with netcat and send it from your home IP. If it violates SPF, it is all but certain to go into spam.

These companies are providing critical infrastructure. If I run a business that's dependent on the phone lines and they cut me off, I'm entitled to a hell of a lot more than the monthly fee for my line. There's many businesse

Now, see, I've been using Photoshop (and Premiere, and After Effects, and...) for all my life, and yet I've somehow never had this problem. Haven't had to pay a single cent, in fact. With each new headline like this, I feel m

(reposting my comment) From my layman's understanding, the process is this: 1. Measure outside interference sources 2. Measure MRI of "nothing" 3. Use ML to estimate f(interference) = noise 4. Subtract estimated noise from si

Sure, but it's not like it has the potential for overfitting. From my layman's understanding, the process is this: 1. Measure outside interference sources 2. Measure MRI of "nothing" 3. Use ML to estimate f(interference)

Why so expensive? Couldn't you just site it way out in the boonies? If you put it on a giant purpose-built concrete cube, it seems like most of this stuff becomes cheaper.

If I recall correctly, some of the Chromebook models had 3:2 screens so you could get "more web on the screen".

This is ... not true, though? Consumer goods are more expensive in most of Europe, sure, but that's because of VAT - after adjusting for VAT, the price is usually the same. This makes sense if you consider that customer protection usua

It's intentionally built to be crap. If your requirements are constantly changing, you want to be able to turn on a dime. If you have "nicely architected" software, that's going to be a lot of work. If the "software

In other words, then, China is doing this for no discernible reason, and the US is just being kind in pointing out how they are harming themselves? Why would the US not sponsor terrorists in China? Some separatism would do good to distract

Not if their adversary went from 500M to 200M at the same time.

You're considering moving because you'd have to spend a day setting up a post box and new analytics? You don't think you're being a wee bit dramatic here, homie?

Google could trivially re-domicile to Ireland if they wanted to. Just do a reverse merger, and have the services within the US provided by Google LLC, which becomes a subsidiary of Google Ireland Limited.

Well, is it to defend against small, irrelevant third-world countries with a handful of nukes with barely functioning delivery systems, or is it to defend against large, serious places with serious arsenals? Because these are two very diffe

Unlike web1 and web2, web3 is a grift. In contrast, this appears to be a genuinely innovative technology.

There's no contradiction here. It's obvious that when the U.S. criticizes Chinese behavior, they do it in furtherance of some goal. Since power is a zero-sum game, assuming that it is happening, it follows then that stopping it wo

Surely, this is not a serious take. For one, NK hardly has the capacity to "destroy" the US - they barely have working ICBMs. Secondly, whatever the amount of nuclear warheads necessary to deter this is, it's surely less than
