> Is DoH browser-based. Optically, yes. Technically, no. I use it outside the browser every day.

I don't understand what you're trying to say. Firefox and Chrome have an individual setting for DoH that doesn't depend on the underlying OS's DNS configuration/resolver.

Therefore, you can run multiple instances of either browser (using profiles) that point to different DoH resolvers or are different from the underlying OS.

This is very similar to using TOR in a browser instance but with even lower friction. Currently, the biggest friction is that one profile cannot point to two or more DoH resolvers at the same time, and instead you need two browser profiles for two browser instances that resolve to different endpoints.

So it was 15T/person in 1920, then it crossed the 20T mark in 70s and now has fallen back to 15T. The catch is that the US population has increased quite a lot. Are there similar charts for CO2 absorbtion by oceans and trees?
Yup, the PinePhone is still being worked on and quite far from being usable as a daily driver. To be fair, the Pine64 folks are also very clear about this.

https://github.com/seedvault-app/seedvault/issues/165 this is the issue, and it seems they are working on it. Good. What I didn't understand is why one would need to fake some Device2Device transfer, when one could just as well patch the root cause. It's open source after all.

Putting more energy into a meta-stable chaotic system will greatly increase the number of extremes across the board. Models and forecasts are currently mostly focused on how the various averages are trending, which is fine and useful.

It's most correct to plan around every location getting more wet, more dry, more hot, more cold, more storms and more droughts.

No, bad analogy.
Move the slider to 1921, see how suddenly the current value is 24% above that one. It's basically a meaningless, cherrypicked point in time that was submitted. This feels misleading at best and disingenious at worst.

> including in France where despite separation of church and State (at least on paper) in 1905, until at least 2010 it was illegal for women to wear trousers.

You surely know that this is one of this silly law that was in place but nobody even thought of enforcing it (of they knew about it at all). It is like the law in some US city where b it is forbidden to attach a giraffe to a lamp pole.

I presume you are French. If so, can you state that the freedom of women in a cité is the same as in the proverbial Versailles I mentioned earlier?
I would also like to hear more on this, a quick look at TrackerControl's readme tells me it mainly functions as a blocklist. Which (I would think) the moment you turn off tracker control to use google maps (or whatever play services app you wanted to use for a moment), said app will send a flood of queued location data that it has been collecting in the background if allowed.

I suppose that setup could work if the user is disciplined about not letting apps that use play services run at all when not in active use, but at that point I don't see the advantage to using tracker control at all.
Most of the commentators are upset because they don’t understand cloud and what it means. As an individual, once you provide data to a third party, you’ve lost exclusive control, period. How you feel about a company is just a feeling.

With respect to this Apple thing, it’s pretty clear that Apple thinks this is more respectful of privacy than what the other providers do. IMO, this is what allows E2E messaging to actually remain E2E.

The EFF and some HN commenters are blending together the parental control aspect from the detection of illegal images aspect. They are two very different things.

And when you talk about the reality of privacy, you can, trivially, turn off the the third party features that trigger the use of cloud services.
For some supply chain inspiration - I recommend this podcast with Jeremy Cai from Italic.com:

https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jeremy-cai-manufacture...

It talks about how they could act like a software company by letting their suppliers take inventory risk. I feel like there could be a parallel here in BlackOakTV - perhaps by enabling independent studios to self-finance and have upside in the success of their content.

Nah, Aurora only works for snagging free apps from the play store via a proxy account- you're thinking of another well-known APK download site starting with an A, one which allows users to create their own 'app stores' (ie. repositories) and is rampant with piracy.

North America is a minor fraction of the northern hemisphere.

Yes, models have consistently predicted warming and drying of the western US at least since I was running climateprediction.net HadCM3 models (through BOINC) in the 00s: the return of the Great American Desert, basically everywhere west of the Mississippi and south of British Columbia.

Secondly, the cooling is an average, and relative to the situation without collapse of the AMOC. In most places, it still gets hot; but in Northern Europe, not so much. It even cools relative to the situation in 1900, IIRC.

And yes, you are right about the location. The visible part of the AMOC is called the Gulf Stream, and it's the reason London does not have the same climate as Labrador.

If you allow the sale & use of new chemicals before they are proven to be safe, you don’t just run the risk of them eventually turning out to be unsafe. You also remove all incentives to actually investigate their safety.

We’ve also found most of the low-hanging fruits of material science. Can you think of a single new chemical that came out in the last decade or two that is worth the risk of something like, say, Teflon seeing widespread use and then being shown to be carcinogenic?

…and Michael Crichton’s State of Fear is his pseudoscientific turn to the dark side, a wild recounting of dozens of superficial arguments trying to proof that climate change isn’t real, years after they had been disproven.
That's true, but the date of the most recent release is clearly shown, and it's easy to avoid the unmaintained ones. Also, F-Droid most likely has newer alternatives for the kind of app you're looking for.
Yeah, we obviously needed one more company doing it as well, and I'm sure having more positions in the job market which pretty much could be described as "Get paid to watch pedophilia all day long" will not backfire in any way.

>We don't even mention the giant logical leap from finding someone possessing CP to automatically considering them a child molester, yet someone posessing an action movie is not considered a murderer.

This is a wild and in my opinion a wrongheaded analogy. Possessing CP is a crime by itself. It doesn't matter if the person possessing is actually a molester or not. It is just like the possession of drugs being illegal and it does not matter whether the person has actually taken or plans to take those drugs.

If you read GP's comment, it conflated these two issues as if they both applied to iMessage. The point is that you don't have to opt out of iMessage to avoid being reported to the authorities. You just have to not use iCloud, a system that has many excellent competitors. You can also roll your own. This is not as big a deal as if one of the major messaging systems were snooping through all your messages and photos. That is what GP made it sound like.

Agreed, that’s my point, and I would say that your comment outlines some good principles a better solution might respect, although it’s worth noting that those principles have only ever constrained the legal system.

Your employer, teacher, customers, vendors, parents etc, have never been constrained in these ways.

Why would having root itself rule out secure boot? It's just that they refuse to offer root themselves, and only as a result of that refusal one has to use system modifications to gain root. In a sense this is the opposite of your claim: they do explicitly not cater to root users.

Personally, I much prefer the APL for a few reasons.
If I tell you that +/ is sum, you can reasonably guess what product is. (×/).

However, in q, if I tell you 'sum' is sum, can you guess what product is? Well, maybe. But it's prd. Would you have guessed that first try?

This seems like it might not be that important, and obviously to the q developers it isn't. But it is a consideration that logically leads to terse symbols.

If you had to write reduce(plus, arr) every time of course you'd rather have a word for 'sum', it's only because of the symbols that let you decompose larger problems into the smaller primitives without ending up with more verbose code than other languages.
Nothing is stopping these countries from doing this already. China, Saudi Arabia, Iran already consider forcing tech companies to track user activity. At the end of the day these companies are subject to laws of the country they do business in and this has already screwed over HK, Uigher, Iranian, Egyptian citizens. Laws forcing data to be stored in given regions alongside encryption keys has already made it dangerous to be homosexual in these countries you’ve mentioned (except Iran which most businesses cannot do business in)
As long as the US government is pushing laws that makes it easier to spy on people, it's not going to get any better.

The only hope is for other countries to (legally) force global companies to abide by local laws, just like EU did with GDPR. So user experience will vary by country of residence.

But, we've fought this type of bull crap entering via our government in the past. We rule ourselves we can literally say, "no, government, you can't do that". Why is it different now? Are people getting tired of the recurring battles? Is human trafficking on the rise?
But it IS marketing fluff, because you literally have to trust them on their word. They provide no means to verify what they are claiming and even if you could verify they could still silently update the client apps the next day (since they _exclusively_ control all platforms, all clients and all servers) and you would be none the wiser.

Technically Google also "promises" practically the same (E2EE in Chats, only sharing map data if you enable it, local photo recognition, local voice assistant on the new Pixel whatever, etc.). But since you have to trust them on this, all of it is not really much better than just having a reasonable "privacy policy" which we all know is meaningless.
Apple's a $2 trillion company. If not even they have enough legal firepower to stand up to the three letter agencies, what possible chance does any other private citizen have. This should be a wake-up call.

It's time to start dismantling massive chunks of the intelligence community. It no longer works for the citizenry that's supposedly their bosses. (If it ever did.) It's become a power blackhole unto itself.

Even elected officials, up to POTUS, have found themselves unable to control the unelected and unaccountable fiefdoms that make up the intelligence community.

I don't think they will ever be able to walk this back. The governments that twisted Apple's arm to get this look-see into everyone's devices will roast them in the court of public opinion (or threaten to, which will be enough). IMO, this will just open up more and more - it will never go back to being what iDevice owners have now.
I've used macs since the 90s and the first thing I always do is delete all the Apple apps, install little snitch, and set up the hosts file to block apple, adobe and anything else that's trying to call home. That's not misunderstanding or misusing the device, it's just standard configuration as far as I'm concerned. I don't have an M1 yet, and I'm a little worried about apps sidestepping little snitch, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

Generally my sense is that people are not good at measuring their expertise about topics. We infer a lot of data into our world views based on paltry facts and analogy to our own experiences. We think we understand because our minds paper over the lacuna of our knowledge. The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know, and how quick people are to believe that other people's experience is much like their own.

That's why I ask people to cite sources often, or listen to their personal stories, so I can learn more.
I know two people who have caught Covid in the past couple of weeks and who had had both jabs; one AZ and one Pfizer. My understanding is that the vaccines don't necessarily stop you getting Covid or passing it on. But they do make it a lot less likely Covid will hospitalise or kill you.
It's depressing to think that when that documentary came out, the general reaction of the public was ambivalence to outright laughter. Al Gore really was a visionary, even if he was 30 years late compared to the climate scientists.
"We need"?

The current vaccines provide good personal protection for the vaccinated, but since they don't protect very well against spreading, not for the unvaccinated.

When you write "we need", doesn't that really mean something closer to "the unvaccinated among us need"? It seems to me that the unvaccinated are precisely those who disagree with that need (except a few).

Only recently. Light bulbs used to blow rather too often and changing them was a routine thing. LED has changed that thank goodness.

Smart lights have been installed at my workplace. They change their setting over 20 or so seconds ‘to reduce stress’. When you press a button and nothing happens immediately it immediately irritates, and most users press it again (cancelling the change).
