The French encryption ban was a moronic aberration that just lasted a few years. Hopefully just like this UK regulation. It wasn’t relevant to any Apple ads.

Even low-grade encryption was actually forbidden in France for a while in the mid 90s. I remember snickering about the whole thing back then, in a much smaller but also quite similar forum. https://www.theregister.com/1999&#

Wikimedia hosts what UK puritans consider pornographic content. A lot of it. Often in high quality and with a permissible license. I would link to relevant meta pages but I want to be able travel through LHR.

I just use Brave and its builtin ad blocking on iOS. This is the killer app of these days. Very few sites really work with js disabled.

Looks like a nice setup, but ideally the room should be like 25% of that size. Being almost uncomfortably close to each other is a feature :).

So much of the expensive "original content" is just crap. I'm happy the days when there's 20 minutes of new quality "original content". Most days there's nothing.

What happened? (Mostly separate: Not american, however I do feel the need to point out that The Postman (1997) featuring Kevin Costner is criminally underrated.)

So: Tomorrowland is an annual electronic dance music festival located near Antwerp in Belgium. They have become famous for their elaborate main stage constructions. This year the giant main stage burned down 48h before the opening: https:&

They are mostly posturing. I don't see any problem sharing a human-reviewed LLM output. (I also figure that human review may not be that necessary in a few years.)

Random: I wonder if the Thai tsunami alert network still works. It was built after the horrible events in december of 2004. Enough time (20-ish years) and government/junta chaos has passed for this question to be relevant.

Ah, I see your point. Although: I don't think the kind of developers that use low quality email providers like that follow HN. Edit: Remember those 7+ hours back in 1999 when all Microsoft Hotmail accounts were wide open for perusal?

I think there is a solid argument to be made that less than one in a thousand of curl users ever use anything besides HTTP/S.

I guess you are saying that we should build another tool, or fork curl and then remove non-http stuff. Then the world should transition from curl oneliners to, say, qurl oneliners.

Sort of separate but perhaps also relevant to the thousands cuts/slops: Isn't the scope of curl/libcurl a bit too big? It supports almost every file-related networking protocol under the sun and a few more just for fun. ( ht

We had a variant of that for pizza in Sweden around 2000-2010: Free delivery from an online order and no tips expected. Literally the same price for the pizza for in store take away or home delivery. Always wondered if that was tax or immig
