I’ve repeated it a hundred times security = confidentiality, integrity and availability. One reason to strongly prefer Apple over Google is that (as I understand it) you can still walk into a store with ID and recover your online identity.

RAM requirements? My current rule of thumb is “a byte per parameter”, but I doubt this runs in 1/9th that (~ 3GiB). Also, perf speedup?

I imagine a good forger would add wear marks to the barcode so it doesn’t scan for a plausible reason.

The hospital thing is standard practice in the US. The Canadian hospitals likely have to lie to get reasonable payouts from US insurance companies. For instance, I once needed $600 of tests at the ER. The hospital billed $80K. The insura

It would need to be actually negotiated and stuff, but the opposition quote is just agreeing with all the public statements I have seen from the EU and Canadian leadership. So, I guess the opposition supports associate membership in everyth

I have a litmus test for democrats. If they pass, it could dig out in a decade or two. If not, it is probably game over: Do you support pursuing criminal charges for current members of the executive branch and their counterparts in privat

Your argument is that some vague hypothetical bad thing could happen to Canada if they diversified their trade partners, so they should just accept economic terrorism from DC and not attempt to support the parts of their economy that alread

Yeah, but the federal government is completely ignoring the constitution. Which amendment contains the clause claiming the rest of the contract survives if parts are just unilaterally deleted by one side?

Don’t forget granting partial control of that other strait to the Houthis a few days ago. Closer to home: there have been a record number of firefighter fatalities this year. It is partially climate change, and partially redirecting nation

I read the comment as: Trump’s policies are all forcing the US into stagflation so hard the fed has to do this, knowing it’ll cause a recession. Fed actions typically take a few years to be felt, regardless of administration.

They should sell copies. I’m sure some foundation model company would happily hand them more than enough to establish a self sustaining foundation. Also, then there would be multiple copies. They could even give torrent access to librari

Are there any decent/reputable residential proxy companies? I’m pretty sure I’ll end up needing one occasionally, for those days when my residential IP has a poor reputation score.

My use of wayback has skyrocketed recently due to anti-bot measures. I often cannot get past captchas, and archive.org is one of the fallbacks I try. However, archive.is, etc are more reliable. I wish the internet archive acted more like a

They hide native resolution on a lot of displays. Text is blurry on those as a result. Thankfully, my desktops all run x11, so Apple’s fractional scaling brainrot hasn’t spread to my Linux or BSD’s yet.

Still compatible with SE 2+ and 11+. Hopefully that means a few more years of security updates for the last reasonably sized devices they made. iOS itself has been getting strictly worse every release. Maybe graphene or something will save

We can do more than hope: Move the wall from the southern border to the eastern border (and probably embargo whatever oil rigs and space launch platforms are planned for places like Monterey Bay) That way, we can get to keep our beaches, a
