Yes, but if they did that, they would have to enforce the same rule on routers of US companies. So the net advantage for the US companies would be zero (which I believe is the point - the "hacking fears" is just a smokescreen).

Appreciated that you took the time to address my points. Glad to see that it's probably the website design that doesn't do justice to the product. IMHO, you should be putting these details in the spotlight. As a new brand in the e

Congrats! The design looks nice, but I'm not very fond of the website design. There isn't a single picture of Trefolo that doesn't crop-out some part of it. Also, every picture is in a "sterile" environment. It woul

Good luck bringing everyone together. There's still a ton of Microsoft software that relies on the presence of the BOM [1], despite practically everyone else not using it. And bidirectional rsync between practically everything else and

This is similar with how Debian handles Microsoft "core fonts" installation [1]. I.e. they don't redistribute, but automate the download from a publicly available source. [1] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg&#x2

In the end it's a game of numbers. - Couriers make more errors (or are more inclined to outright steal) because working conditions are crap. - Courier companies save big $ on courier wages because of how much they squeeze out their del

I believe the results of this policy should have a measurable effect on the number of complaints/customer support cases and they are definitely taking notice of that. But it's not that anyone will take action. This is exactly the

And UPS is probalby to blame for that. AFAIK most delivery companies nowadays work their shifts with delivery quotas. I.e. the courier needs to deliver everything on the truck (which is typically more than you could deliver in a time-based

It is the "local economy" only if you believe in trickle-down economics. The area of visited by cruise ship tourists is typically a very small fraction of the port city. Worse, the establishments in that area only account for a sm

It feels that these educational regressions are quite intentional and pave the way to a more authoritarian society. It is hard to apply an agenda on an educated and internet-connected populace. Internet connectivity is still useful as a con

Well done! I had built something similar, but as a cli tool. It must still be sitting on my old laptop, never took the time to spin it up as a service. What I miss feature-wise from my variant is text. IIRC, I had two lines of text (top and

These panoramic X-rays are typically performed by technicians/adjunct personnel. So I would guess that dentists don't directly pocket the money from them, or willingly recommend them. A more likely scenario is that dentists are em

No need to worry. They can keep the legacy admissions for the badminton club I guess.

Maybe because many of the legacy students were born with a silver spoon in their mouth? It's not a level playing field when it comes to the resources required to complete your studies. One student may have to commute for <2h per day
