The general idea behind these kinds of bills is to do supply-side management of fossil production: reduce oil production is order to help with pollution/global warming. This sounds alluring but in reality, the same demand exists - it

If you wish for an fs common to both BSD and Linux, ext2fs would be perfect - better than UFS for the job.

The scheme is highly amusing, the problem being that you still have to launder the money. Sure, the keys to the new wallet are available, but how to explain later how the money was earned in the first place (and why no taxes paid then)?

Google always treated AMP as permanent, even going as far as to introduce AMP Emails *, and slowing down non-AMP javascript content. It was only because of legal exposure created by the slowdown that they were forced to deemphasize AMP. *

I tend to be critical of Apple, but the spectre of them charging for sudo is absurd. I suspect that the actual reason is boring: This is a developer oriented feature and these features aren't judged as important as other stuff.

Internal company LANs will never switch, both for cost reasons and because IPv6's addressing choices are badly suited for it. Maybe one day companies will abolish the internal LAN and move to zero-trust, but until they do IPv4 will sta
