I went down the rabbit hole on this a couple of months ago. Some of the details are a bit hazy in my memory now as it was about 2 months ago, but in the interest of playing devil's advocate... > the suspicious deaths all lined up pe

Actually, in the UK, mutton tends mainly to be eaten by members of Asian, Middle Eastern and Caribbean communities. It's not widely sold in supermarkets all over the country, unlike, say, lamb. And where it is sold in a supermarket it

Agreed, there was only a narrow period a long time ago where Quora was usable and useful. It's been a domain I've skipped visiting in search results for maybe 10 years now.

True. I'd still argue it's not realistic to use arbitrary code though, as most control problems need linear or at least invertible control laws, and the analysis techniques that provide you with control solutions usually assume so

When I went down the rabbit hole of looking into pet trackers, the fact an iPhone needs to be nearby for AirTags to work is a problem to me, as well as the need for a SIM card in the tracker itself. I was thinking it could be nice to use a

It'll be a shame if that happens to my account, as I lurk on Twitter every day (but never tweet or like), but I value privacy of my phone number more than I value the enjoyment I get from it.

I've got an account from 2009 and have never had to enter my phone number (if I ever get asked, that'll be the time when I stop using it).

Are the terms for Microsoft business customers different to those for end users, with regards to privacy and tracking? Can my ssl232@mycompany.com email provided by Office365 get tracked around the internet just the same as ssl232@gmail.com

I'd pay maybe $5/month max, which is infinitely more than they make from me now given I block everything and have as far as I recall never willingly clicked on an internet ad in my life.

I don't know if this is true or not, but I read something suggesting they produced it in 1999 as a side product of something else but didn't start to examine its properties properly until a handful of years ago.

Is this even enforceable? How can the UK government determine whether encrypted traffic going to/from UK IPs emanates from a messaging service as opposed to any other service?

Yeah I suspect the USB-C docking station is the guilty party. Same software, Arch and KDE.

Tbh for me the monitor behaviour in KDE is great until it isn't. It works fine on my hardware at home but not on my Dell laptop and docking station at work. But I can live (and have lived) with it given the rest of KDE is as you say aw
