they actually did take a great deal of precautions in the later American phase, like draining swamps and chemical agents to control mosquito populations. Mosquito born illness was a major factor that sunk the earlier french attempt. https:

that logic is always going to apply , meaning effectively, you are never going to be able to remove their CA cert, because its always going to break their customer's sites. So no matter how glaring the security problems a CA is never gett

the vm is eaiser to modify than the entire codebase, you have to update only one small bit of code, rather than everything. The vm is written with this in mind, and is trival to automaticly obfuscate/transform.

did you ever embed Google analytics or adsense, etc into your webpages? They collect and market user information in an almost identical way to Facebook. (in aggregate via statistical models + advertising to identified segments) You may feel

The ability to disable secure boot only applies to x86, and even there your stance has issues. I wish people would stop repeating this like its some kind of iron clad gaurentee, Microsoft only changed the reqirement to begin with after ther

these solid state specific file systems are not intended for use on the types of ssds you buy to plug into a SATA port, those are already heavily abstracted by their firmware, which handles stuff like wear leveling and block deallocation. T

i was never claiming that somehow ethernet was "built into" the cpu, what im saying is, if you want the kind of features built into your motherboard usually associated with the high end, integrated CPUs will force you to buy a high end cpu

I sincerely hope AMD can turn things around. With Intel already talking about stuff like soldered on CPUs (need 2 lan ports? that will be an extra $500, need IO virtualization? that will be even more, etc), the future of high powered laptop

EVE online strongly shares in all of your mentioned characteristics, with the exception that even in their version of "trammel" you can die, but whoever attacks you will get destroyed by NPCs after a small delay. A fun game aswel, chock-a-b

they did throw a significant amount of resources at python with the creation of unladen swallow. In the end i believe it was decided (due to GIL issues, and other language design choices in python) that it was never going to match up perfor
