This is the unfortunate reality of a lot of Rust projects. There are of course some who don't fetischise the language and there are of course community members on both sides but from the outside it makes Rust look so, so unappealing an

I’m not an Apple apologist, I don’t even have an Apple monitor. My mantra for any monitor I would buy, including the ones I have now, is: if it doesn’t have a VESA mount and optionally the ability to purchase without a stand… then I don’t b

South Korean TV, similarly to Japan, has a lot of on-screen text as part of the experience. Subtitles could be blacked out (i.e white or yellow text on a solid black background) but the universal idea of sign language is to help those who a

Why would South Korea use ASL and not KSL? Why would South Korea broadcast their news in English and not Korean for their Korean-speaking population? They are providing KSL because most countries have their own localised sign language. Aust

Gotcha, so nothing to do with the actual data (you didn't specify which kind just "data") but the mere act. So it's a problem with the legislation as we already knew. Invasive and surveillance-based legislation.

Sadly (2) is a legal requirement in Australia now, too. If asked you MUST unlock your phone and computer. So if you’re travelling here or leaving — citizen or not — you best be prepared to have your data searched for arbitrary reasons. I ha

Could you elaborate? This sounds like an “if you’re innocent you have nothing to hide” argument which I categorically disagree with.

It's possible to use Linux without any GNU userspace, see: Alpine. I get the bit and of course GNU's contributions are incredible but it's not _always_ the case that GNU+Linux is the implementation of some distribution.

Wine has a similar stance regarding Windows source leaks and ex-Microsoft engineers who have worked on _any_ Windows code. See: https://wiki.winehq.org/Developer_FAQ#Who_can.27t_contribute...

Are you contending that because the device is not part of their body —- or forces a non-functioning part of their body to work —- that they then are not _really_ speaking by having their throat movements synthetically vocalised? Does this m

So you’re saying that for a mortgage loan, or a credit card application, or a personal loan, or a car loan that a bank will never ask you: Q1: What is your job? Q2: What is your income/year? Q3: Where is your proof of income? (pay slip

Someone violated the terms of the lending platform and had their loan recalled. This is no different to lying to your bank that you got that new $10,000 deposit from selling ice cream (taxable income) instead of selling your car (stamp duty
