> Since this only happens for photos on their way to iCloud, in your analogy it would be like searching the bags when you put them in the cab to go to the airport.

I think this would be more like if the TSA installed scanners in everybody's houses that scan everything as you put it in your suitcase. Yeah, it only scans things on the way to the airport, but the scanners are in my house. I don't want them there. My house is my domain.

It's the same way with my phone. I don't want the government/Apple evil detector running on my phone. I know that a false positive is unlikely and I know that Apple and the government have made very clear they will only look for Real Evil. I still don't want the scanners on my phone.
Is it apparent to the sponsor when someone is watching using youtube-dlp versus a regular view? I'd imagine most sponsored segments are negotiated based on subscriber count or view numbers.
Find something that Facebook doesn't own? I mean, there ARE other options, right?
Also - you can't deny them entry if they leave, and you have to keep your house in livable condition (as if you're a charity landlord).
Monoclonal mice aren't out in the wild. Some of the lines are incapable of breeding, yet we keep making them.
I live in Uruguay, it's not an alternative, it is very expensive. Good quality of life, but you don't live well on that budget. You need up to 2k a month (one person) to live well. Brazil and Argentina are very insecure and economically unstable.
Are the consequences of the massive energy usage also opt-in?
In a way yes. But its also using leverage to amplify your gains.

Say I get $90,000 to go buy a house, I spend the $90,000 and have 1 door. I get a tenant in it and they make a $90,000 down payment. I then go buy another house and get another tenant in it and they make a $90,000 down payment. I now have two houses and still have the same amount of money I started with, I can continue this cycle and as long as property appreciates I don't just get the property appreciation from one house I get it from all of the houses so (% appreciation * property value * number of properties).

Say it is a $100,000 property and it appreciates 3%. If I had just bought one house and put the money in an interest yielding savings account I would get some low % return. If I instead chained it to acquire 10 houses I would get $30,000 return, which is 30%. But if the value of the house goes down it works against me!

Obviously this ignores transaction costs, interest costs etc.

Ok, that's fair. Maybe I'll finally decide that Ubuntu has more drawbacks than advantages for me (and it does have both) and finally switch to Debian directly.
If you can afford to rent a flat in London, you can afford a flat anywhere, it's not about homelessness.
I've started saving anything I ever watch more than once. Cooking recipes, music videos, learning materials, etc.

I started when a group I listened to removed all the content they had put up over the past year and said it was promotional material for their latest album which was garbage.

Ads have gotten so bad that any videos over three minutes have multiple ad breaks so watching longer music videos or sets are just completely ruined when watching on YouTube.

I wish there was a good set up for single watch videos since the ad algorithm tries to anticipate good places for breaks, which often times is right before punch lines to joke and when you skip over the ad they tend to put you back a few milliseconds ahead of where you stopped which can ruin jokes. I rarely watch for enjoyment (as opposed to learning) on a computer so I don't get the benefit of using an ad blocker like Ad Nauseam.

I’ll never understand how people can be close to effective with Google Docs.

It’s fine as a replacement for Word (I guess? I’m not much of a Word user). But Excel is so far ahead. And the ergonomics of working in a real application vs a web app is a significant difference.
I've also switched from Arch (has been on it for ~10 years) to NixOS (~1 year so far), and fully agree it's amazing.

I've been thinking how interesting it would be to create a user-friendly Linux distribution on top of standard NixOS (similar to what Manjaro is to Arch), which would not require learning Nix language or tinkering with the configs. I mean, system configuration/choosing packages/drivers/kernels should not really require a user to write in Nix language - the sane choices can mostly be represented by a set of GUI checkboxes. There also could be GUI utilities for other Nix goodness, such as creating nix-shells with necessary dependencies available, declaring wrappers for proprietary software, or building temporary VMs. So, I would say, the user absolutely does not need to know a lot about Nix to fully appreciate robustness of NixOS way, and in principle, with the right tools/GUIs it can be very approachable for even non-technical users - it's just that user friendliness seemingly has not been a priority so far.
Can't you just break in, post a selfie to twitter saying "the squatters have left :)", leave, then break in 48h later and keep the place?

I really highly doubt that the original squatters continuously inhabited the place, as though they were clinging to a new Kia in a radio contest.
Too high. For example, for my home city there is a figure that would be the 90th percentile net salary

Pretty sure the Big Bang is still "just a theory". I think the headline should have said "When the Big Bang Was Just a Hypothesis". Bad NYT.

Offensive Security certs (e.g. OSCP) are similar to what you're describing. The PNPT is similar too but also emulates a real-world engagement on top of just needing to root boxes.
I needed a non-linux system recently to update the firmware on a Digidesign Mbox... had to borrow someone's mac.
The state of cryptocurrencies is nothing more than a visible symptom of larger systemic issues that have clearly gotten out of control. It would be much more beneficial to try and understand why the market has decided to consider it valuable in spite of everything you have said rather than just blame and dismiss it based on its impact. We aren't paying the price for cryptocurrency, we are paying the price for policy that has made cryptocurrency attractive.
How about a “been there done that, now naturally inoculated” badge?

While I’m all for vaccination, I’m concerned that its advocacy is moving past scientific and reaching religious fervor.
Well if you take that all as “luck” then certainly your predisposition to hard work is also “luck,” at which point you’ve denied free will, which might actually be true but isn’t very actionable.
Given that my wedding ring is permanently egg shaped due to some impact that I don't even remember, I'll stick with gold.
Interesting hearing the situation in Spain! In the US, you sometimes see arguments centered around there being lots of vacant housing, but they usually neglect to mention that a significant majority of those units are actually either (a) so rundown they're actually uninhabitable, (b) empty for a month or two between when the old tenants leave and the new tenants move in, or (c) in middle-of-nowhere cities/towns that don't have any jobs.
Risk… you are exposed to the risk of decreasing property values if you buy.
Yeah it can be due to nvme, because then it's at least somewhat responsive. Ran into an OOM situation with a newer computer of mine that has an NVME and I could close the offending electron application easily.
To be fair I would agree with you that some of his guests are great (e.g. Quentin Tarantino) and I do enjoy the long-form interviewing. But Rogan himself, to me, gives off bad vibes. Not really sincere or actually interested in his guests more than he is interested in himself. I find he'll say he's interested and come back with some show of how cultured and learned he is by bringing some obscure minutiae. I think he should be truly interested in his guest and put them in the spotlight.

Sorry to point out the truth but Joe himself is an unaccomplished stoner and promotes lifestyle choices that are repugnant to me. I would never trust him with my kids. So why would I trust him with my time?

Others do a much better job of the long form interview and have themselves provided some value to society on their own merits. Tim Ferriss and Jordan Harbinger to name a couple.
The copyright issue is what sucks most. For the US the first implementation of copyright allowed max 28 years.

Since then the cycle to make/market/distribute/profit off a product has gotten much faster.

If anything, copyright should be shorter than 28 years. Not longer.

I love the original The Matrix(1999) movie. But it has had it's day in the sun, earned money and become "old news" at least 10 years ago.

In a "free market" sense, 12 years is a long time to have a monopoly on IP. If you have failed to make whatever money you are going to make of this IP by 12 years, then you are sucking at your marketing/use-of-IP and there should be "competition in the market" with your IP, to best make use of it.
Given that MSFT still sells Exchange that you can host internally, they wouldn't even be ABLE to shut down the org.

Like other malware, they learned that it's best to not draw attention to yourself. Viruses don't put a big animation on your screen anymore, they silently enlist your machine in a botnet and steal your account number and credentials. Toolbars (now extensions) don't change your search engine, they silently add affiliate parameters and cookies.
> Yes, Facebook is now almost useless. T

Not my experience. A contractor recently told me almost all of his business were driven by his company's FB page. I'm also aware of a few small businesses who do most of their business via FB connections. FB is well and alive in the mainstream, even if it skews toward more older group of people.
Greece probably has Spain beat by a large margin in this regard.
Whether properties are expected to go down in price or not doesn’t change the fact that their is always a risk that property drops in price.

Oh, I wouldn't have a problem with a tenant reporting the crimes of a slumlord. I just really hate Reddit crowds of do-gooders who brigade over a picture and a blurb.
Do we understand blockchain and crypto well enough?
And that computation is something that did not exist prior to the introduction of this feature, nor is that computation useful for anything other than the operation of this feature.

You can split hairs over terminology and call this "scanning" or "analysis" or "inspection", but the end result is the same. Your device is now computing information with the sole intent of using that information to make a judgement about the content you're uploading and about you/your account.

Without that "scan/inspection/analysis", the server-side process can't do anything on its own.

If you're happy in a share house, you could live on that in Aus, albeit frugally. Though if you wanted to live outside the cities you could get rent down to $600AUD, and leave you $800AUD to live on, $200 a week for everything else is stacks.
I care about freedom more than most people using Linux these days.

But from a historical perspective, desktop Linux was only made possible by Nvidia and their closed driver. That's a sad fact. I've been on Linux "desktop" since 1995 or so. There are only two businesses that really gave much of a crap about Linux (other than Red Hat) and those were: id Software and Nvidia. ATI had total garbage for drivers for many many years. Practically up until AMD bought them. I built a HTPC back in 2005 around a passively-cooled ATI card trying to get it silent as possible. The idea was that I would use the Radeon driver on Linux and everything would just work. But it didn't. And I was stuck using Windows.

ATI shares part of the blame for why Linux never made it on the desktop. You can't have one of the two major video card vendors dropping the ball for so long and come out okay.
Could be argued that that was a mistake in the original specs for the Web. At the time, as I recall it, "double-click for action" was already a pretty well-entrenched standard on multiple platforms.

Very much this.

My professional life has been interacting with very large organizations (as clients, not employers) -- think Fortune 500 firms, if not bigger. Major oil companies (I live in Texas), major defense contractors, etc.

These are not GSuite users, generally speaking. It's Office and Exchange in these places. Microsoft is VERY VERY STRONG at the Enterprise level.

I have ADHD and I don’t think I have a single bill that is not on autopay. The only exception was the property tax on my house, until the time I made the expensive mistake of forgetting to pay it. Now the bank pays that
automatically out of escrow (from my mortgage which is also on autopay). I’m pretty sure I could fall off the face of the earth and none of my creditors would notice until my job stopped paying me and my checking account ran dry.
A) Judges generally don't take kindly to be played for fools. Do this and you make a judge very very angry, which is not good for whatever you want the judge to do.

B) The FBI doesn't keep logs of who accessed what because a judge wants it. They keep logs on who accessed what because they want to know who leaked documents to reporters. Something like the Fincen Files leak: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FinCEN_Files is investigated by figuring out everyone who opened the files in question.

The FBI has even more important information than this, in particular the identities of confidential informants and undercover agents. Those cases are actually more complex because they are highly protected- with good reason, if someone unauthorized accesses this data it can get people killed- but desperately need to deconflict: there have been cases where a FBI office in City A was using a undercover agent to try and trap drug smugglers in City B, while a confidential informant in City B was trying to trap gun runners in City A, and no actual criminals were involved.
Weird. Works for me. Could you plz retry. Thanks

Post your issues/an example then. I'm legitimately curious.
the entire premise of the article is literally about how those mean single family home owners prefer to keep single family zoning and how the california government is advancing a bill to go ahead and increase density anyway
Our family was like that. We had every single device version up to iPhone 11.

Then Apple bent to the will of the Chinese government and removed apps used by HK protesters. I don't live in Hong Kong, and I'm not affected, but it was a red flag (no pun intended).

Then they bent to the will of the new US administration, removed Parler, and threatened Telegram. I use neither, but again, red flag.

Now this. Textbook definition of hypocrisy, maybe?

We were in a holding pattern on Apple upgrades since the HK decision, and now we are two generations behind on iPhones, and (I think) four generations behind on iPads. The thought of upgrading and giving Apple more money is not appealing to any of us, so we'll keep our current devices for as long as they work, while searching for an exit from the Apple ecosystem.

It's just anecdotal, and I'm sure Tim Cook won't lose sleep over losing three iPhone and three iPad sales.

Law, order, morality.. those are things defined by a democratically elected legislative branch, and enforced by the judiciary branch, not by rich suits in closed off board rooms.

In my mind, this is just a cooperation between law enforcement and big tech to get around the 4th amendment protection.
Interest doesn't have to be money, it's any benefit received for giving a loan. In this case, the benefit received is staying in the apartment unit in exchange for the loan.
You remember correctly:

More than 99% of recent deaths were among the unvaccinated, infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci said earlier this month on NBC's Meet the Press, while Walensky noted on Friday that unvaccinated people accounted for over 97% of hospitalizations.

This holds up really well, in any STEM field, not just mathematics. Celebrate those dimples on the surface of human knowledge, if you can, in fact, even make them. Very few people can, and our future depends on them.
Exactly.

And so while "tavolo" in Italian is masculine, our table is feminine. And while our planète is feminine, Spanish's planeta ends with an A and is masculine.

English generally doesn't have genders on common words, except for cases like vehicles that can be found used as feminine (ship, car, …) [1], but that's fairly anecdotal.

In my experience police was extremely professional in every interaction. Hell, I've even witnessed them refusing a bribe (body cameras tend to do that). Healthcare is also cheap. Had multiple tests to determine whether I needed an operation with no health insurance (I was on a vacation there that time) and it cost me below 150€.

As for language, of course, your experience will depend on where you want to live in the country. North-east sees less tourists than the coast, and finding that sweet middle might take some trial and error.
Why is Gnome the reason people don't stay on linux?

The article makes it look great to anyone familiar with macOS, which while it has faults is generally regarded as a pretty good OS GUI.

Is there something bad about Gnome the article is missing?
Why would you not want to pay more rent and invest the rest of the savings yourself? The landlord (at least in the US) almost always has to pick up the tab for all those repairs anyway.

You also get to avoid the risk of the landlord not giving you a large sum of money back.
> But what then do you think is a realistic alternative?

Not my department. I'm perfectly happy being a parasite. I used to watch Twitch every now and then. Twitch introduced server side ads and made ad-blocking unreliable and annoying - so i stopped using twitch.

My life doesn't depend on youtube, and if they decide to shut me out or the platform stops existing, that's fine with me. Maybe other video platforms can try out other models instead of that effective monopoly google has on online video currently.

I've also already said that I tolerate non-obnoxious ads. But looking at the rest of the web, it doesn't seem to go in that direction, so I'll keep blocking until they kick me out.
Why not have the job move to the person instead?
And it neither gives it "more entitlement to newcomers than to current owners" nor does it "obligate current residents to change it".
Of course they discriminate on age. They don't want to make it clear to the people they are doing it to.
At 30 days they gain rights as a tenant. There was a case years ago of someone with an AirBnB I believe where they stayed longer than 30 days and then refused to leave claiming they had established the place as their residence.
> Most of the squatters aren't trying to extort, they're just trying to get somewhere to live for free or for cheap. Yeah, some are freeloaders, but lots of them have lost their jobs and/or are suffering the combination of the crisis and the spectacular surge of pricing on real estate this last years.

So much speculation. Do you have any proof for these claims?
Amusingly, trying to debug issues with Windows is equally frustrating, but for different reasons.

Hmm, I thought ECM and tap-disintegrating EDM (which is not very precise and does use a huge amount of power, unlike, say, wire EDM) had pretty astonishingly huge MRRs?

I think the density ratio for tungsten and steel (19:8, just over 2:1) is actually more even than the atomic mass ratio (23:7, just over 3:1). So I'd think that even on a volume-per-coulomb basis ECM would cut tungsten faster, assuming comparable faradaic efficiencies. Do you have any idea about the electrode-potential question? I'm totally lost.

While true, it's not by much; mortality for covid-19 is less than a percent of all hospitalizations, iirc.
Onboard graphic is pretty good these days, unless you plan to game high-end stuff. I'm actually using my 4790k's onboard graphic (2014) as a daily driver since I use my GPUs for compute only.
I think Bitcoin is ridiculous and wasteful, but I'm also conflicted because I think similarly about many physical products: jewelry, mansions, oversized personal vehicles. There's a lot of embedded energy in all of those goods. Who am I to judge which ones are worthwhile. It all makes me dearly wish there was a global tax on taking the resources out of the ground.
I've had the experience you are talking about in the past, But this is mostly gone now. Most of the distros ship with wifi drivers so you can do an internet install.

Most wifi cards on Laptops now are either Intel or Killer. So most distros will ship with these common ones. They also usually ship with universal drivers for things like trackpads and monitors so that at least everything "works" out of the box on a fresh install. However you still are best hunting down specific drivers for your equipment to get the best experience or performance.

My personal experience is that if you use a Dell or Lenovo laptop, that you won't need to worry about compatibility. These two companies in particular seem to have the best linux support so their equipment generally just works. I have found HP to "mostly" work. Good luck with Asus or Gigabyte. I wouldn't even try a lesser brand than those.

Battery life on Linux is a mixed bag. There are tools you can install that can give you incredible control over your battery and drag a battery's life out much longer than you would get from the same laptop on Windows. But you will need to constantly manage it and be aware of it. For example I need to go into the terminal and manually change a profile every time I connect and disconnect from the charger. As opposed to Mac and Windows that mostly manage themselves to get the best performance/battery life ratio. I found that if you don't do anything with Linux and just run it on battery that you will get substantially lower battery life than the same device would give you on Windows.

Sounds exactly like the left in Berlin
Again wrong.

Singapore is building HVDC lines from Australia as we speak. We have been building underwater cables for a very long time (100+ years now) so it's pretty much a solved problem currently. Deep sea oil rigs have existed for decades at this point. Turbines in comparison are easier than oil rigs.

So tl:dr; we can absolutely plonk them down everywhere, and in fact we should.
