To give an example from the german jurisdiction, if you buy a TV that fell off the truck, you are in posession of the TV but do not have ownership of it (however, you are not required to actually give the TV back, you can do what want with

Tor public keys don't prove identity (ie, that is cloudflare.com) while such a certificate over, for example, Alt-Svc headers does. Pure .onion certs exist as well and give extra reinsurance that you're on the correct website.

You can configure an invalid DNS server or set the DNSConfig in systemd-resolved. The DNS server option being set at all causes the fallback to not be used, regardless if it's empty or not.

This discussion is the worst to have to repeat every time. This fallback will only be used when: * You have no DNS and NTP servers assigned via DHCP (your router does by default in 99.99% of cases) * You have no DNS configured in /etc&

They are because being kicked out of the EU requires unanimous vote and hungary and poland just veto eachother into the EU. Nobody expected two states to become fascist at the same time when the EU was created.

>On the other hand, why does society need movies that cost $100 million to make? (Much of that being what the stars cost.) I personally like some of these big budget movies. This reminds me of when I was talking on reddit about OSS games

Batman is a superhero that operates in darkness and has black clothing, yet people don't think of Batman as the BBEG of their comics, no? There is an entire TVTropes page dedicated to "Dark Is Not Evil" and it's not a pu

The old code checks for the filepath to be present before attempting to dlopen it. The new way requires you to dlopen the path. This is very meh because dlopen already executes code from the library, so if you didn't want that, good lu

Germany isn't that much different, the federal government has a bit more power but generally people from one state differ much from another. Compare Berlin and Bavaria, if you want an example. Bavaria is one of the more expensive state

I don't think that is true, plenty of police forces around the world call themselves police without feeling the innate urge to shoot at innocent protesters with lethal force.

Hence you ought to rebuild it from the ground up and if the police breaks the law they'll be punished for it. Why is it so hard for americans to imagine that it's possible to have atleast a semifunctional police apparatus?
