As a seller, the buyer can claim that the package they received was empty or just had a brick or whatever, and eBay will almost always side with them. I have multiple friends who were been hit by this.

More so, La Liga wants Cloudflare to take it down for the entire world, not just block it from Spanish IPs, regardless of whether the host resides in Spain. Cloudflare has refused to do so.

I think that ended up being a red herring. It just happened to be the case that the ARM test had huge pages disabled while the AMD64 test had them enabled.

Depends on your definition of efficiency. Any ride service will drive more miles thus resulting in more congestion and more energy use than personal vehicles, because in addition to driving from point A1 to B1, they have to drive from B1 to

If Waymo's announcements come to reality, that is happening this year. Phoenix entered full service in 2020, then San Francisco and Los Angeles in 2024, and Austin and Georgia in 2025 (in partnership with Uber). But this year they are

Agreed. The main problem with domain squatting and sniping is scammers either trying to impersonate another organization, or extort trademark owners into paying insane amount of money to obtain a domain which has no legitimate use to the cu

I think there are many ways you could address this issue that don't involve circumventing constitutional rights. Most of these systems take a photo of the car, which you can often use to verify who the driver was. For serious offenses

That would run afoul of the right against self-incrimination in the US[1]. The government can't compel someone to admit they were driving, and can't punish people for refusing. The government has to provide proof they were driving

Seems like one solution could be that after a certain number of violations the registration is revoked. And it can only be re-registered under special registration that allows use by a single driver.

That local cache is often implemented as a drop-in replacement for the upstream package repository, and packages are still installed with the same package manager (yum,apt,pip,npm).

Sure, a photo taken in non-visible spectrum is still a photo. And stacking photos taken with different wavelength filters or sensor can also be considered a photo. For example the headline image of the spruce tips taken in a lab is photo. A

The NAEP has two types of tests - a long-term trend assessment, and the main assessment[1]. The long-term trend is given less often (and rather sporadically recently), and 2023 is the most recent one available. The main assessment has been

We don't have any NAEP long-term test results for years between 2012 and 2020, because they were canceled due to budget cuts[1], so we can't use the linked data to determine whether the decline started before or during COVID. We d

Observing the heliopause at different locations would be interesting. The two Voyagers and New Horizon are all headed more or less through the bow. We still have a lot of uncertainty about what shape the tail of the heliosphere is, not to m

What was unique about the Voyager flight path is that the alignment of planets allowed us to visit Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune in a single trip using gravity assists. From what I've read, the final velocity they obtained allowi

Yeah, it is common for pictures in space to look like simplistic raytraced renderings because the lighting and shadows are so sharp, lacking atmospheric diffusion and scattering.

We spend more on debt interest than we spend on the military or anything really other than social security. That isn't a useful comparison anymore.
