Say what you want but chit-chatting with people you know is far more fun and dynamical when everyone feels free to interrupt others. Part of that culture is of course learning to not let go, and fight back those interrupting you - refusing

Interesting, can you elaborate on the pros/cons of the office for you?

But crypto wasn't invented for rich people and drug lords to launder the money, so why would anyone give a shit about their problems in the first place? It still would make a lot of sense for regular folks who prefer their online habit

In theory traceability is not a problem if you can maintain a complete anonymity of your online persona - which in practice most people can't.

Shouldn't we instead solve the problem that you might "need some protection" because you're doing something political - instead of relying on security-through-obscurity which honestly doesn't even really work anymor

Perhaps if you're obese and your body can burn enough of its stored fat you could maintain it for a while, but 1500 kcal/day is too low for an active person - for most people it barely covers the BMR needs. In order to stop body f

The problem is not in OSS, but that people now want to live from it. Open source development is primarily a hobby, something that you do for free because you enjoy it, or maybe for self-promotion or something. Obviously some projects get po

I love it when people say "Oh, I'm not a programmer" and then continue showing the stuff they've built (and fully programmed) that is a way beyond in complexity than what most of us professional programmers get to work o

To reiterate after giving it a bit more thought, this actually could be very useful if combined with fingerprint or facial detection as approval method - a bit like what Apple is now doing with passkeys, but will work with many more service

This sort of defeats the idea of 2FA, doesn't it? If it's implemented as a software service on the same device, it's (well theoretically at least) hackable at the same time as the device itself. The 2 factors from 2FA are bot

Sounds a bit like 2nd-graders who wish to skip the multiplication because they don't need 2*3 - they can pass the test just by calculating 3+3 after all... When learning, unlike the person teaching you, you don't know what's

strictly speaking it's a rate limiter, not captcha... but frankly it's probably closer to what most ppl use captchas for these days...

It's a nice toy, but I doubt its practical value as in design you deal with color palettes, not standalone colors. I might be wrong, but my gut feeling is that "the most popular" color wouldn't necessarily end up as a pa

It's not a huge deal and maybe it's just me, but I find adding the word "Imaginary" in front of their Gods completely unnecessary, even annoying. I never heard anyone explaining Christianity by putting Imaginary in front

Absolutely, WE should do exactly that (and there's a plenty of things that we can do to protect nature around ourselves) - instead of living in hyper-urbanized cities and pissing online on people who actually live for a century or more

> they've either been without that road for 40 years, or moved there knowing the situation. It's a really weird argument, you're basically saying that people shouldn't be allowed to upgrade their infrastructure ever?

It's the thing with every tech ever, first you need to know (way to many) intricacies, and then the tools evolve and you don't need anymore... I remember having to fight sound cards and modems on linux once, or (slightly more rece

For me this light pinkish text on the dark purple background is far worse choice... it's not just the eye strain that I felt immediately, it also has this anxious and aggressive vibe. Good choice of color palette for a striptease club,
