I agree those things you mentioned aren't very popular, and possibly where you are the mainstream culture is different than where I am, but I don't see any of those things as counter-culture in the sense that none of them are opposed by the dominant culture. e.g. If it came out at work that you were a member of a group that fought with foam swords, had unusual sexual preferences, or were funny atheists, you wouldn't be fired. People might say "oh, that's weird" but they aren't going to hate you.

I'm not saying any of those things are bad (in fact, I like fighting with fake swords) but there's not hostility to them from the culture and they, in turn, are not hostile to the mainstream culture, so I just don't think they're countercultural at all.

By definition I think countercultural groups will strike you as weird and bad unless you belong to them specifically. Q-Anon, for example, which speculates that the leaders of society are <bad things>, is a countercultural group because they both hate and oppose elements of the main culture and are hated and opposed by it. The kind of antifa or anarchists who are attempting to burn down courthouses or police stations in Portland are another clear example.

Regarding the “Bronze Age collapse”, there’s some thinking that it might be much less of an inexplicable cataclysm than it usually appears. Here’s a really interesting r/askhistorians thread about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/fm3vs1/how_d...
In my experience with compliance (mostly NIST 800-53) auditors will not just want to see scans, but more importantly an assessment of whether found issues were applicable and what actions are being taken to mitigate. Maybe I have just been lucky to work with particularly good auditors though.
I didn’t say they didn’t exist, but clearly it’s not just me who never really think about them:

https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=U...
You're looking for some pure, objective reality that will never exist. You have to take a stand at some point; you cannot sit and say "who am I to say?"

"Who am I to say if it's wrong to believe people should be killed and enslaved for their skin color? Next thing you know, someone may think I'm extreme for what coffee I drink!"

Your argument is inane.
To be fair when I read "for LATAM" I usually expect it to be "for one particular country but we want to pretend it's for LATAM". (Not picking on this launch specifically.)

The countries are just too different, it doesn't make sense to treat them as a block.
Standards might be a way to prevent a race to the bottom in quality. I think that is the most important thing.
According to what law? Tried in which court? And enforced by who? International law is basically: “Don’t like it? Well what ya gonna do about it?”
> You asked if other X servers are used,

Allow me to qualify: ON LINUX! Sorry if that wasn't blindingly obvious when I said I was totally on-board with a DRI3-only X server.

> The point with that is that you're bringing your own compositing and multiplexing anyway.

I did not have to do this in the X server world. I did not have to worry about inter-compositor compatibility, because there was only one compositor implementation. Wayland has made me have to do extra work for absolutely no gain. This has got to be the fifth time I've explained this on this comment thread. I don't know how much clearer I can be.

> From there it's optional if implementations want to put in additional features for IPC, window management, hotkeys, screenshots, etc, and they can choose if they want to put that in the server or put it in a separate program. So you can still mix and match on some level anyway, it's not quite the same though.

I'm glad you've understood that N different window managers will now have N different ways of doing this, whereas before, N different window managers only had 1 way of doing this. It's nowhere near close to the same -- now in order to do one thing reliably, I have to implement it N different ways.

It's infuriating that none of the Wayland fans seem to see this as a problem. It's almost as if they're the ones who won't be suffering the consequences of their bad architectural decisions!
The flipside of being so small and dense is that was fragile, which is a problem when you're trying to preserve something for a millennia. It was also undoubtedly expensive, meaning few were produced in the first place and they would be a prime target for thieves and artifact hunters. The one in the article could easily be the last one remaining.
Some of the largest players in the fitness tracker market such as Garmin, Suunto, Samsung, and Coros are hardly "Silicon Valley" companies. Sure it's possible to train without a smart watch, but having one makes it much easier to follow a structured training program, measure your progress, and share data with coaches and friends.

Didn't people travel before the advent of the "wheel"?
If it works and fits your needs then why not continue using it?
It's not a political ideology or political speech. The reason we came up with freedom of speech is primarily so you can criticize the people in power. I know that people for whatever reason got this weird idea that pornography is somehow free speech, presumably because of lobbying, but historically free speech always coexisted with obscenity laws. If you want to silence your political enemy, it's going to be hard to do on the basis of pornography, but it's rather easy to do on a basis of 'hate speech'.
We're on Signal. You don't see us unless invited.
It's not just a click or two when we are joining several meetings in a day. Personally I'm annoyed by repetitive tasks that are slow due to external factors. Joining a meeting through Meet on Chrome involves -
1. Open a new tab on the right user profile
2. Navigate to meet.google.com (second slowest task)
3. Click on a meeting. Wait for it to be setup (slowest task)
4. Join. Wait for a couple of seconds for the stream to setup.

I would rather club multiple slow steps requiring user action into one long wait time that I can completely ignore.

Probably the cheapest way to launch things. However, SpaceX has no interest in dealing with everybody that wants to launch a cubsat so you have to go to an integrator.
Yeah, I understand how it can be confusing that a community that defines itself by being an explicit rejection of the norms of society and calls people they disagree with 'normies' could possibly concern itself with what other people think. It's OK, if you haven't figured it out by now, there's nothing I can do to help you. Have a good one.
It's a little bit more than just culture. The Wayland protocol has made the compositor, window manager and window server concepts a single thing whereas in X those are provided by different applications talking a standardized protocol. It did that for good reason and there are technical ways to then implement those parts with common code still. But since that sharing is not enforced by the protocol itself there's still duplication of things that in the Xorg world were more stabilized with no real competing implementations.
Its not just power usage - GPUs are essentially unavailable due to Ethereum mining right now, which has broader societal implications given the limited fab capacity. So we have a giant misallocation of energy, and a giant misallocation of computer hardware.

Trolley-bus and tram companies in my Eastern European city are increasing fare pricing due to electricity price increases - how much of that is due to increased demand from mining?

The very real, and very negative, implications of PoW mining are becoming apparent.
Few weeks ago I was looking for something like this. If there was anything similar, it was always sold out or did never launch, I don't expect better availability with item. And if they ask for $100 which is way too high and would give me better boards, pls provide two M2 slots.
Do you have any reason to feel so despondent without any real evidence? There's already plenty of people mining with renewable/stranded energy sources, all mining will head this way. My prediction is that the "energy consumption" arguments against bitcoin will disappear in 5 years.

People are gonna tell us (bitcoiners) that the USD is secured by the powerful military of US behind it and we're supposed to accept it as a positive, but if we say that we're going to use electricity to secure the network with nothing but math and computation, we're instantly hated by the same people. What gives?

How can you be ok with wars and threats of violence to enforce the value of a currency, but not computation and electricity? I just don't understand it.
As the history of repressive governments has shown, they don't need any help in building these systems. Once they are in power, they really don't give two figs about how open and accepting your society was of viewpoints like theirs, and they can quickly assemble any instruments of oppression that they find lacking.
Commodity literally means cheap and of consistent quality.

All of those things should be commodities, even if we choose to pay for them as a society rather than organizing the flow of goods using markets.

Put simply, if you are willing to buy it without sampling it, you think it's a commodity.

That's also not the whole story. The House of Commons was completely divided on the issue to the point where the Remainers couldn't find a common position and any proposal going roughly in their direction was shot down by the other parties in their own camp because it somehow didn't represent their exact idea of staying close to the EU. It was so bad that the House had long phases where literally everything that might have meant the slightest bit of progress was consistently and summarily voted down. If this divide hadn't happened, Leave would have had a much harder time. They did play very dirty procedural tricks on the House of Commons as it was to try and force things their way.
Really those APIs bring nothing useful to the table.

OpenGL (ES) 3 with VAO was the last feature that really moved any interesting goalpost (to reuse that phrasing since we have a tree structured comment field to move those around) for games.

Most new protocols are just job security.

Edit: Also calling something that just released in hardware (OpenGL ES 3) legacy is kinda weird.

Maybe wait a decade or two?
Depends on what you are after, but why not GIT + SSH and run regular snapshots of the repo? That way a dodgy person doing bad things could ultimately be undone relatively quickly.

Any sort of backup of the git repo would also achieve the same thing.

If you are super paranoid, you could also do git over email ala the linux kernel on sensitive repos and only apply trusted patches yourself.
I always joke with people that farming is a great half time job, just pick which 12 hours you want to work. I also think the only people that want to start farming are those that have never done it.
OVH wiped my server a couple weeks ago for non-payment while I was in the middle of a support ticket to sort out a billing issue with my invoice.

Was asked for more information from a support rep. Server was auto-wiped less than an hour later.

If "extremism" gets banned, then individuals are incentivized to get things they don't like labeled as extremism.

We wouldn't be having this conversation if the things labeled extremism and thus banned from platforms was limited to ISIS and literal Nazis. It's been far more far-reaching than that. That's probably due to the incentives, not due to actual extremism.

So if extremism is subjective, it will be leveraged in that manner and you can't stop that behavior without removing the incentive. That's the point, not what is or isn't labeled as extremism today, that's just dragging the conversation back into the political gutter.

You were cellphone-only since at least 2001? If you spent any time talking on the phone back then, your monthly bills must have been staggering.
It does. While it is more powerful than Minecraft's creation side (and your child programming in Lua has an entrepreneurial motivation for Roblox bucks which translates to real dollars), the downside is that it feels more separate from Minecraft's creative side, which is baked into the gameplay itself
Except now the whole X server is part of a GNOME-specific or KDE-specific API.

The bug is "Wayland makes it so programs don't reliably run anymore because they are no longer guaranteed to work with all window managers and desktop environments." It's an architectural flaw.
I think the exchange got off on the wrong foot. I think the point to be made is that American history being seen as simply a history of racism and white supremacy is a new thing, and a sad thing. Because, as you know, other things happened here.
Microsoft Probing Whether Leak Played Role in Suspected Chinese Hack
KSP gave me the exact same impression, but there's one thing I wonder about: with sufficiently smart global optimization algorithm, maybe a collector craft could approach and collect several targets on a low Δv budget? It's not something you could do manually, but space has also this nice property that you can predict trajectories accurately far in advance, so it may be amendable to optimization.

Wonder if there's a paper somewhere that computed possible Δv requirements for a collector if you squeeze your flight plan very tight.

(Also in-orbit refueling will change this equation a lot. You could keep a bunch of such collectors continuously in space, and wait for the trash to align right. There's no hurry.)
Syncthing is pretty great and for us an inspiration technically, but we also believe it's too difficult for the non-technical population. But we're targeting a reduced easy to use UI. We're trying to get as near as possible to the convenience of Dropbox/Google while being peer-2-peer and end-2-end encrypted.
Unfortunately, that's a big cultural shift that a lot of people appear to be having trouble with.

We all really enjoyed the days when we could throw together a project and focus on the fun parts. Then came all of the other things we should worry about -- security and scaling, which are at least technical problems, but then things like privacy, moderation, and even legality.

It's fun to put up a file-sharing service; it's less fun to think about the fact that it can be used to share child porn. It's fun to have a new chat site with no filters. It's less fun when people use it to plan crime.

We don't want to face that. We want to make it Not Our Problem. And here, now privacy is another one. We used to just gather up user data and we didn't plan to sell it or lose it so why did we care?

The Internet is a lot less fun than it used to be. Or rather, we just managed to ignore a lot of the problems, usually because we weren't the ones affected by them. And so we didn't fix them ourselves, so laws got passed instead, which are never as good as what we'd have come up with ourselves.

So yeah, it's time for people to learn stuff before starting a business. That's no fun. Too bad.
If you think "lack of electricity" is going to stop bitcoin mining, you are mistaken. You are just hoping for doom on an asset you don't understand or don't like, it's just not a good way to argue against something.
> But a lot of the new stuff is now done on FB, and it means that knowledge gets pushed to the bottom of the feed, and it is impossible to archive.

Are there any maintained Facebook scrapers, akin to youtube-dl? I think there's definitely a need for /r/datahoarder style archiving of certain parts of social media.
What's New in SQLite 3.35
There are plenty of normal regex crosswords out there. What makes this one special is the fact that it's in a hex format. If anything, regex is actually what allows people to even make hexagonal crosswords, I don't think it would possible to get any reasonably sized one with normal words.

They just went the extra mile to make an special puzzle.

Nerds used to large corporate networks/university ones pretty much all had access to shared drives that "just worked" in the OS file browser.

The magic of DropBox was that non-technical users could just share that word document, have it everywhere and not have to deal with a weird terminal.

I wished Drobox built a (physicals, why not) wall at their HQ with the names of everyone who was able to miraculously recover their masters/phd thesis after hardware failure because they saved it in their Dropbox folder.
I'm starting to assume malice rather than stupidity when it comes to the US Government and it's online regulations. I feel like this investigation will serve to push even more stringent requirements for US based KYC/AML and identity verification across all online trading platforms.

Edit: Malice, in the sense that the United States can force its regulations on foreign entities without going through traditional diplomatic channels. I see this as a power-grab.
I knew Professor McCarthy at SAIL back in the day when the Colossal Cave Adventure was making the rounds in the mid-70's.

I'm comparing software to software. I want to buy honest software. If I'm paying $100/year for some program, then I'm expecting that another program with similar cost would require similar amount of engineering effort. I'm ready to pay $100/year for operating system. I'm ready to pay $100/year for sophisticated graphical editor like Photoshop.

Paying similar price for simple software? Well, I would expect something like one-time purchase for $10, that's how much I'm paying usually for those kinds of programs.

It might sound a little bit communistic, I know. Sorry.

If I'm making $20k/year, I could pay $10k for Intellij Idea. Because it's essential for my work. But I'm paying $90, because Idea creators put a reasonable price. May be that's because they're in a hard competition with free tools, I don't know.

Analysis of risks of cyberattacks on weapons systems
Today Scotland passed the wildly controversial hate crime bill. Thankfully the bill was amended several times which gutted many of the more extreme provisions. But I can tell you for a fact that people I know have been seriously preparing to go underground - they perceived this bill as such a serious threat to their freedom of speech and religious liberty that some where preparing to purchase property in remote locations to enable clandestine meetings, others started reading on encryption, etc.

Not one said “oh well, time to change my basic wordlview, since it might soon be illegal”.
Look at California Prop 16 for a concrete example. It was universally supported by left-wing groups, endorsed by the Chamber of Commerce broadly and by many of the state's biggest companies individually, passed the legislature with 75%, but failed at the ballot box with only a touch above 40% in favor. When policies left-wing groups favor are that much more popular among business and government leaders than among the general public, I dunno what to call that other than "left leaning".

When lockdown-related stresses got to me, I found a lot of comfort in my old Nintendo DS Lite. I never saw the appeal of retro game collecting, but that combination of comfortable design, good battery life, and gentle screen display was exactly what I needed to ignore the doom scrolling and stresses triggered my more modern technology.

I have been tempted to get an emulator console, but they all have brighter, higher resolution screens and shorter battery lives, so I don't actually know if I'll get in the same "flow". Maybe I'll reassess after I finish this stack of JRPGs (which may take a decade).

Once everything became "connected" (around 2010), obsolescence became inevitable. That Psion5 or Zen Stone can remain timeless because they will never sync a contact list or download a patch. The owners know what they do, and seem confident that they will not fail.
