I've been saying for years that the US' non-cooperation with the ICC is a ticking time bomb. Our country has hundreds, if not thousands of people that could potentially serve life sentences for war crimes. Some of them soldiers and police, some of them lower level officials, some of them senior level officials, and some of them presidents. The US has passed laws effectively declaring war in advance on The Hague and any country that works to indict American citizens in the ICC.

But it's pretty damn easy to call our bluff. What lengths would they really go to protect 0.0001% of our population from facing justice for permanently maiming, torturing, and killing thousands of innocent non-combatants? Would we be willing to face losing our NATO allies? Being excluded from the G7/G20? Would we be willing to face trade sanctions, crippling our entire economy? We can wag our big american dicks about, but no political party could survive those sorts of international punishments, let alone sacrificing American lives to protect murderers. And it's just a matter of time before someone really calls our bluff and does something about it.
The Value of Uncertainty
I’m not scared of their strategy because I’m aware of it.

I’m scared of adding all the unknown problems of Windows to all the problems of Linux and then having to depend on that on a daily basis.

So, I won’t use it. It’s too easy to buy a used computer, slap a new SSD and RAM in it and run Manjaro Linux. I recommend an HP Elite 800 from Amazon for $200-$300. Then if you need Windows it’s just one KVM/RDP click away.

Same here. I have a VM ready to go in case I need Windows. I just checked and last used it in April... Maybe it's time to delete that VM.
Well, that’s also not true.

Microsoft invested a grand total of $250 million in Apple. Apple turned around during that same quarter and spent $100 million on Power Computings Mac license. Apple didn’t become profitable until years later. The $150 wouldn’t have saved Apple.
You’d be reporting a loss on those!
I am actually unable to install the raw apk. After changing the allowed source setting and getting through the warnings, it says it is installing but at the end just says "App not installed".

This is why we need to support open source hardware and mobile operating systems.

But the large companies work together to close the existing networks. So we also need things like mesh networks and alternative service providers.

But ultimately there has to be some democratic push to reclaim some long distance internet links for the people. Or build new ones.

Unfortunately, no file transfer protocol built atop ssh (scp, sftp, etc.) can have high throughput rates over high-latency links because ssh has a small, fixed TCP window size. There are high performance forks available like HPN-SSH but they are rarely used in practice.

Currently, the highest performing remote file transfer that I’m aware of for most situations is HTTPS.

That doesn’t answer the question, that was an unnecessary example about the status quo, how would it be worse if the IRS treated them like currency because you just wrote an example showing how it would be better. Let’s just wait for the person I originally responded to then
yc was 0 to 1, not 1 to n. You can't be greedy when doing 0 to 1: you'll just fail. But those imitating yc are doing 1 to n, and it's easy to underestimate what made 0 to 1 work in the first place.
Hopefully your brain will prevent you from doing that. When OS developers say that the C library is the public interface and syscalls are private, you listen and use the C library.

Golang authors completely ignored FreeBSD's policy and went with syscalls directly because "they don't change in practice" and that is infuriating. Porting to new architectures is much harder, for one.

Maybe we just need a new agency. One that targets rich people that us plebs can support and politicians can promote. And then just keep the IRS how it is going after plebs for us to hate.

Seems like institutional failure if I have to vote for IRS expansion, the same people going after my tiny coffer, for the IRS to go after anyone else. That's a dumb conflict of forces.

You can try a live demo of Netlify CMS here to get a feel for the editor workflow: https://cms-demo.netlify.com/#/workflow

The irony of this entire shitshow is TikTok was skewered for not being open enough to political content in the west, leading to regional moderation changes that made politics and risk of influence possible on the platform. If TikTok was allowed to operate like Douyin in China - largely apolitical - then much of current worries could have been averted. Chinese style censorship can be useful and complementary to existing partisan platforms. Sometimes you want an apolitical space for impressionable demographics. Overall I still find TikTok pushes less politics to my feed for my interests.

I'm anticipating a future where foreign platforms like TikTok are just webapps and can't be banned without implementing great firewall. What will countries do then.
Disagree 100%. To me, what we are seeing IS the effect of a company that HAS been effectively nationalized, too big too fail, and time and time again doesn't feel the brunt of its horrendous decisions.
There is an apathy around bombing civilians in Islamic countries, especially if done by another Islamic country. It is considered just a matter of business/strategy to supply weapons to Saudi Arabia, even when the extent of Human rights violations there are fully known. This problem can be resolved only when there is a broad recognition that all Humans are equal, regardless of religion, caste etc.
Hmm... not sure what you mean. I just swapped ctr-c and ctrl-shift-c so that copy would be the same in every app.

Not to drag us too deep into philosophy, but you can make a pretty good case for the Linux way as well. On my machine, the super key is mapped exclusively to window manager shortcuts. It's how I move, close and resize windows, change splits, open apps, switch workspaces, pop open temp terminals, emojii choosers, a calculator, all that quality of life stuff. Copying and pasting is an app thing, and apps get ctrl and alt as their modifiers. It does make sense to me.
America supports Israel financially, politically, and with military support. Israel is genociding Palestinians right now.

And you have constant bombings of civilians in the Middle East.

And you have sanctions on Venezuela and Iran which lead to many many civilian deaths.
He is right. There is no black and white changeover from regular life to civil war. We are just going to slowly slide into it.

Ah, could be.

My data does not support that conclusion. To the contrary, the vast majority of business decision makers are still on a Windows based machine in the US.

I can validate this directly as we operate the largest library of long-form professional/technical content library on the web. Over 700k professionals per month are registering and downloading content specific to their needs.

Below is the current breakout of their device factor for 2020:

Windows = 97.26%
Mac = 8.21%
Linux 2.92%
Chrome OS = 0.27%

Clearly just one perspective into the market but we've never seen Mac approach any level of critical mass within the US professional marketplace.

Hah, I'm sure you're right. The mustache threw me.

"There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact." - A. Conan Doyle
You seem to ce conflating "story telling" with "fabricated incident with no basis in reality". That is not what it means, at least not in all cases.

Rather, story telling includes relating true actual events in a form that creates sympathy and interest from the audience and public. Disintermediating elements of luck, randomness, or familiarity by repetition can be hard. The point remains that Parks was seen by Black civil rights activists and the NAACP, and at least arguably demonstrated by the 1950s US press and public to be a compelling narrative.

There's no claim that Parks was the first refuser or arresstee (she clearly was not), or that her story is false. Those are all red herrings. The point is that the story was sympathetic and compelling.

I'd think this might be more clearly apparent in fewer than four explanations. I won't attempt a fifth.
Similar comments are written by citizens of China and Russia - assuming their own government is an unquestionable force for good, simply because they were born there.

I miss the time when this kind of low-analysis drivel was not on the Internet, and was relegated to family gatherings, etc. When we could still hope that as more people found forward-looking hangouts, this type of lazy ignorance would give way to intelligent discussion. Now these nationalistic propaganda ruminants eat up all the energy in the discussion (every.single.time.), and it's clear they aren't going away.

Only superficially.

The most important aspect in the early sci-fi visions of computers was that you could trust the answer the computer gives you. Futuristic sci-fi computers were, and are, DWIM[0] - they understand what you're asking for, and give back as accurate and relevant answer as possible. This is in stark contrast to real-world search engines and voice assistants of today: sure, they can tell you a lot of things, but half the time they can't parse your query correctly, and the results depend less on their accuracy, and more on who paid more to get their stuff in front of people (relevant or not). Second-guessing and sanity-checking answers are a standard part of our interactions with query-based interfaces. So we have a lot to go to match even cheesy robots from pulp comic books.

But we sure as hell nailed the glitter.

This is a misunderstanding of the purpose of Debian, which comes in several flavours: Stable, Testing, and Unstable. Stable does indeed "lock" older versions of packages, but this comes with the enormous benefit of reducing maintenance caused by bugs, regressions and incompatabilities that occur in newer releases. Only security updates are released, but there are also methods for installing newer versions of packages if you like, which is exactly what I want from a server operating system.

If you are looking for more of a Fedora or Arch-like experience on desktop, then you could investigate Debian Testing or Unstable.

As for the radare2 security issues, it appears that the package is part of the Ubuntu universe or community repository, and has been abandoned by its maintainer. It won't receive any official support from Canonical. It's probably a bad thing that Ubuntu allows this in a way that's not super clear to the end-user, however the best solution would be for somebody to step up to the role of maintaining the package, or for it to get removed from the universe repository altogether.

This is a mis-representation of what I said as well as of the reference I'd provided (and your "Nonfactual reporting" edit isn't substantially different). What I'd said was "they're not generally considered to be fact-focused." which is to say that more of their work is analysis given known facts, and analyses can skew in any direction.

> The article says that safety measures at the firmware chip level are disabled.

Those are the safety measures protecting the PMIC, not the battery. Is that temperature cutoff even low enough to matter before the battery is on fire?

It isn't clear that the software protections ever mattered anyway. If the kernel crashes, or is just charging while turned off, I sure hope it's still designed to be completely safe, and not a sudden explosion risk.

That happens because Congress wants it to happen. They have cut funding for high value enforcement and pushed going after low income filers, which is both amenable to their major donors and helps fuel the narratives about big government and taxes being too high.

This also plays out in other ways: Intuit spreads a ton of money around trying to prevent the kind of automatic tax and online filing which happens in most of the world because thinking of taxes as hard provides them with a steady stream of customers.
It seems like the intent is for RBS to be auto generated from other tooling. Sorbet for example lets you write inline type definitions and is planned to fully integrate with RBS.

The other good thing about RBS being in separate files is it can be integrated into a library without breaking compatibility with older Ruby versions.
Linux is definitely better at privacy by leaps and bounds. But! Performance, no, there are use cases where windows outperforms, and others where Linux does. Security they're almost equal with Linux with a slight advantage if you keep your OS up to date and fire walled.

This could be true.

Also could be true you were part of a data leak from one of the exchanges. The IRS actively pursues collecting this data, and I've had some very interesting conversations with one of the contractors they use to help scan the Internet for such things.

If you were included in the mtgox leak, you probably got such a letter too.

Why Is Rent Seeking So Bad for Competition and Growth?
Those aren't very good examples. They're way different and I don't think anyone is claiming satisfactory is infringing anything.

I would go to OpenRCT2, which specifically has you copy over the graphics from a genuine copy of RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, and OpenTTD, which includes new graphics in place of the ones from Transport Tycoon Deluxe. However, no one actually knows if this is enough of a difference to matter. It's more about convincing the original creator to ignore it than actually being legally robust.

And then for non-game software we have Java in Android.
correct but the mess Android have is somehow direct result of using Linux's kernel, read about Fuchsia and why it was created.

NumPy Reeling After All-Male Authored Paper Triggers Twitter Diversity Backlash
These two things are not mutually exclusive. The decision to allow operating without a battery is a mainboard design decision and has very little to do with the protection circuitry on the battery pack. In a device like this, the decision to require the battery as the primary current source is usually due to the high current draw for activities like initial searching for a cell tower. Lithium batteries can source this current easily, but if you want to run without the battery, your charger needs to be able to source that max current as well. Sizing the charger to handle this brief load translates directly to additional product cost, so it is often not done that way.

The protection circuitry on the battery pack is designed to protect the cell from charging and discharging situations that may damage the battery. You definitely want those protections in there.

I'm not aware of any worse tax consequences, but I guess it is possible considering the potential for those sweet long term capital gains rates.

The problem I have with treating cryptocurrencies as property instead of currency is that it creates a massive accounting burden, effectively killing its potential use as a transactional currency. Can you imagine what it would be like if you had to report all of your bank statements, credit card transactions, and cash transactions to the IRS and have it all reconciled?

WordPress is more about the ecoystem than the CMS itself. If you just install WordPress without any plugins or themes, it's pretty useless.

WordPress is so popular because you will find a plugin or theme to fit almost any need.

The majority of the users are not developers that care about composer, WP source code or out-of-the-box potential. They are users who know that once they install this platform they can create whatever site they want in a few hours doing a few Google searches and maybe spending a few hundred bucks.
