Don't the police live and work in the same society? Their cars don't run with the lights on all the time.

You cannot buy a car in Europe without: - lights permanently on ("safety", definitely not for your ability to get lost in the dark) - continuously stores logs of speed, brakes, seatbelts, signal, vehicle inclination, GSM connectio

As the other commenter has posted, refunds for inexistent bookings or refunds for someone else's booking are pretty frequent. Other simple stuff is overdue payments for fictive deliveries such as soaps, toilet paper, cleaning bills or

As a passive hotel owner and active programmer, I can confirm it's always been the case. In the hotels business, getting customer requests, invoices and refund requests seemingly out of nowhere isn't too uncommon. Receptionists, w

It's exactly DRM, management of legal access to digital content. The "media" part has been optional for decades. The comment they replied to didn't suggest sane defaults, but DRM. Here's the quote, no defaults work

Don't equate solder to (liquid) metal touching other metal. Soldering is a chemical reaction between metals, and it needs a pretty high temperature for that to occur. The solder simply touching the other metals isn't enough, those

I wish there was a tailscale-like equivalent without connectivity encryption, for devices which encrypt at the application layer (like almost the entire internet does). We don't always need the lower layers to be encrypted, this is esp

You're taking things literally, but the point is that everything is overpriced with apple and they're getting away with it because of the cult following they've cultured and are now milking. In my previous comment, I simply p
