Public property requires permissions for you to act upon. Do you, or the person in question have those permissions? No. Can I go and randomly fix potholes on public roads? Also, no. For anything public you also require permissions.Two wrong

The authorities dont take a lot of cases. Once again, why are you the arbiter of right and wrong? Go to the authorities. Thats why they are there. If you dont like it, take it up with them. What is socially acceptable is not what is morally

Yes? It's likely no longer in the spot is was meant to. 2' to the right could mean it's in the way of cars, customers, etc.

No, you don't lol. You do realize both the algorithm to decompress the media, and the media as well can be stored alongside, right? Including. any instructions to actually use that media.

Assuming the book is kept under good conditions, in a humid controller room, with nobody touching it? Your point is moot. there's a reason we moved to digital media, and why nobody keeps paper copies of everything, aside for last-resor

Right thing to do according to who, you? Why do you get to decide what is right and wrong without a court of law? I thought we outlawed that ages ago.

Nor does it mean otherwise, what's your point? That's damage, regardless. If I go around and draw a very nice stick figure on a painting, versus throwing paint on it, are both not damaging? Not his property, not his right.

No, it is not. This is the purpose of a government. If you dont like it, vote it away. Don't go around breaking other people's property because you don't like what they have. It's illegal.

It's not an act of civil service. Nobody asked you for help. You put it upon your self to impart judgement on others with no authority. Did they ask for help? No. Are you damaging the car? Yes. Are you intruding on others rights? Also

Terrible example, digital media can last far longer, under the same circumstances. Have a USB drive Hard Drive, or USB? Plug them in 10 to 15 years later, chances are, they will have far less damage than a book in all those years. It's

Even if it is, it's not his responsibility, not his right?1 If I see someone speeding, should I jump in the road and tell them to slow down? If I see someone parked illegally, should I slash their tires? It makes no sense.

Why is this someone else's problem, other than the owner, or authorities in charge of this? If there is a tree fallen on my property, are you going to come and remove it, or do you expect me to do it?

No, it's the opposite. What leads to a "Russian" driving culture is people taking matters into their own hands. I've lived in Europe. People love to be up and all about it, thinking they have the authority to do anything

It says he pulled it off, not unscrewed it. Literally in the article. What right did he have to do that? Not his car or property, nor his job. If I don't agree with the ruling of some judgement around banks, I don't go around brea

I don't agree with the license plate being covered, but that also doesn't give you the right to go and around rippingt hings off of people's cars. It's not his property, leave it alone. This isn't any different than

How would this work with other voices, like a coffee shop, would it hear those simultaneously, and interupt a command? Also, how do you handle using OpenAi whisper, seems like they do 30 second intervals - would that be an issue if your com

This is the only major issue holding me back from upgrading. When you run 3-5 visual studios, couple of RDP connections, etc, having those windows in the taskbar is a big productivity booster. I had to rollback simply because after a while,

What are you specifically referring to? .NET core has pretty much everything and more than .NET Framework did. In my personal experience, and that of colleagues, it was a pretty smooth experience. We mostly had issues due to some API change

Why are actual privacy issues like this not covered by any media outlets? I'm tired of hearing about Trump all day.
