No law is universal, but this one is I believe quite well established in most jurisdictions.

Not quite. Russia is crumbling. Their market is worthless, so it’s not just western companies leaving it, Chinese are doing the same. Entire Russian part of Belt and Road got dropped and is instead being shifted south. And because they l

Quite the opposite, it’s precisely how things are intended to be - and pretty much always were. The law states clearly that correspondence belongs to its recipient.

This isn’t defence in depth, this is security by obscurity. Also, honestly, if you are manually typing passwords and copy/pasting private keys, you can’t expect any security anyway.

Contractual obligations that go against the law are void. And it means that indeed, you are supposed to just ignore them.

NFS4 is broken in fewer ways FUSE is, and it has the advantage of being standardised and implemented by everything. The natural way forward would be to get rid of FUSE in this stack, not NFS4.

This is something that's often said, but it's just not true. In France, the Church was the "internal occupant"; it was an uprising. In Spain, the Church was known to be ally of fascists; we can see the consequences of

We believed in Putin's bluff for the past two decades, and see what turned out.

I wonder if we could have radio beacons for pedestrians, in addition to the current braking systems which use radio waves reflected from electronically passive pedestrians. It might not even require GPS or anything complicated; just respond

Of course not - it’s Russia who invaded the West. It would be merely a defense and peacekeeping.

Not true - Chinese companies hold lots of IP, eg for 5G, both bought elsewhere and developed in-house. But yes, while Americans believe everyone else are subhumans and can be invaded with impunity whenever profitable, Chinese prefer learnin

Why assume this one Russian weapon actually works, if all others turned out to be shit? Seriously, can we really expect a country that can’t even manufacture cars to be able to refurbish nukes? Not to mention that the assumptions of MAD doc

Another way to fix the problem would be to help Ukraine a bit more and forcibly take the gas from Russia as reparations. At this point it’s obvious their military was all bluff. This doesn’t even change the final outcome, it just speeds it

It’s exactly the same thing: penalizing people in the name of religion. There are no examples in the other direction, ie penalizing people in the name of atheism.

Sure, but, however weird I feel saying this, this person wasn’t particularly important - he was a clerk, just a better paid one. It’s not like we lost some scientist, or artist. He wasn’t even a celebrity.

In many western countries you can be prosecuted for not following certain religious dogmas, like Catholic views on sexuality and reproductive rights.

That’s what fundamentalists keep claiming though: that preventing them from raping children and denying people their basic human rights is religious discrimination.

In the West, discrimination against Christians is practically nonexistent. What does exist is opposition against hate speech and promotion of harmful behaviors, and many fundamentalists claim they should get free pass because of their reli

There is a fundamental difference between a SW devotee and a fundamentalist. And no, it’s not in any way inflammatory. Unless you’re living in Iran. Or southern US.

Indeed, and that's where the current strategy comes from: bleed Russia in a slow, humane way. Russia already can't escalate using conventional means, simply because they no longer have the people nor hardware required to do so. E
