> Portuguese people love bashing Americans This is not limited to Portugal though; this sentiment exists in many countries, especially among people who have never been in America. But yeah, like your anecdotal, I have many anecdotes too

I think, as more or less a unique point in cryptocurrency history, that these people who promoted it also got around nothing. Many 'diamond hands' (such a strange concept for such a volatile asset) in this community it seems.

It is nice. I do this manually for companies (short contracts); great if I can do more automation and less manual work as often it is repetitive.

You are probably joking, but for argument sake. And then? Generate 100000 false positives per day (which is what will happen); arrest them all until proven innocent? Investigate them all until proven guilty? What? 100000 flagged data stream

I believe this is the correct response. Let Kutcher lobby the EU to make a plan for combating child trafficking and child pornography, however, do not push a solution you don't (fully) understand with it.

Yeah, think that's a healthy attitude. I never really liked living in cities, but I do like visiting them, especially mega ones that are open most of 24/7 (cities that close before 5 am I find utterly boring I noticed and I lived

During covid there were these ‘contests’ [0]. And there was more (will try to find). [0] https://techcrunch.com/2021/11/18/uk-names-five-projects-its...

Keep voting, per country, for the right people and capable digital people on the gov; the pendulum can swing the other way giving people the right to strong encryption. I like dreaming. Any country where that is a right by the way? So where

They just change it slightly every time until it passes. But it won’t be very potent in the end; I cannot imagine blanket encryption backdoors etc will be voted in. But if it does I am gone, out of principle. As tech person I cannot stand t

Going to guess some things are exempt. But yes, you are right. Our nda’s do not allow this either.

Was there so much crying about the UK ones or was everyone obsessed with covid? During covid the uk spent a lot on similar (and I think worse) tech? Maybe the uk will license it?

Or are they living there for jobs? That’s what I always hear as excuse for people to live there, not that they like dense neighbourhoods. I am old though so my network and (news/social) reading habits might be different.

Anything automated that has the potential to ruin people’s lives should first be checked by humans when flagged. That’s why this csam thing, if used, will cause crazy amounts of human work, and/or, after first ‘convicting’ a bunch of p

Netherlands. I wonder if it is similar: I saw a few here and they were friendly, no cuffs, they had a list of IPs, made an appointment to collect the drives etc (and that was with enough proof to know for sure they would find what they were

Are they cooperating with the UK; seems there were a lot of requests for proposals from them during covid with millions attached to scan e2e connections and other csam measures.

But would the system not insist images are hashed by it? I mean; I would think it’s not a weird demand that if this is to protect children (which it is not, at least not only) that the image hashes are solely for that purpose or otherwise n

You need awareness that things most people don’t understand fully are absurd. Humour can be a tool for that.
768.
by tluyben2 4y ago
Yeah also not, they will need to have proof of at least connections with some criminal networks to compel you to do that.

by tluyben2 4y ago
That won’t happen here but sure, US type of police overreach makes a better soundbite with horribly vague proposals like this. And people should be scared so I guess it’s good; maybe they will protest (probably not though because the childr

That's not what I meant; I meant 'they' believe cryptocurrencies are better than other assets (outside NFTs) as in; they ALSO believe those are better than other assets. I wasn't saying NFTs are better; I was actually sa

Still, 'smart' is usually not buying at ATH (even a local high) or not having a stop loss if you don't have time to stare at your screen all day and night. I don't know how many people 'woke up' to a 90% dump i

There are 100s of people popping up in reddit and twitter who seem to be suicidal over this (Luna+UST). Sad but there are people who put bizarre amounts of money they worked hard for (or borrowed) into this...

You should really play them both; I have the remastered versions on steam and enjoy playing the hell out of them. I often switch backward and forward from new to original graphics and music for nostalgia reasons though.

Yeah, I am getting there; I just like working under Linux more and mac OS X does a bit, but nothing is like Linux with i3 for me; it is so much more productive (for me).
