Looks like finding abuse by a powerful man acceptable in the name of internal stability isn't part of Peng Shuai's values.
I only subscribe to Netflix, and these days I don't even bother to check if things are on there first. If its a show I actually want to watch, why not go where it's guaranteed to be?
I thought the most recent study said that prior Covid infection does not offer as much immunity as the vaccine does. This was posted here also.
What I said is not "defunding the police", it's making sure that the people in charge of the money share my (our?) values. We do NOT want cops, judges, or wardens who dehumanize the poor, the black, the accused, or the convicted. Moreover, we do NOT want someone who can't accept the reality of bad cops, systematically bad police departments and justice systems, and who insist that everything is fine. Because obviously it's not.

But you have to give that person power, and that means control of the money. The police chief, sheriff, and mayor are great places to start, but at the legislative level you've got to start funding and testing other approaches.
It's an Informational RFC, not a Standards Track RFC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Request_for_Comments#Status). That said, I think the magic number is pretty firmly established.
My favorite part about NFTs. One individual can create an endless amount of wallets and place hundreds of offers on a NFT asset making it seem like there is high demand for an item. You can also buy NFTs from yourself anonymously to make it look like an NFT has momentum value.

It's hilarious how easy it is to create illegitimate value with anonymous or pseudo-anonymous actors in any market transaction.
Interestingly, much higher quality internet/mobile network access seems to also be cheaper outside the US. I was kinda shocked when I heard how much some acquaintance paid for gigabit internet/ 4G mobile in Spain.
Let me tell you as a white man that does not own anything but his laptop and a few clothes: crushing individuals in the name of Greater Good always backfired on us and it will backfire on you, too.

I am not even sure if we learnt this lesson yet here in the West - power is corrosive to human rights - but your answers seems to be radically rejecting its validity altogether.

Solutions like VMware vCenter work well for live migrating, cluster balancing, HA priority etc. it’s not exactly a cheap product though.
Oh yeah, I’m familiar with that, too. That makes more sense. Believe it or not that doesn’t clear the big three for music either, or at least didn’t when I got out of the business a decade ago. But BMI and such have special deals with real radio that would make Internet radio weep, so you’re right it’s better. (Former MD here.)

That’s the likely outcome. They’ll probably push for the mechanical video recording and the creative content within it to be different licenses just like music. And then you’ll still have to license the music within it, probably both the recording and the creative. IP structure in complex media is so entwined there won’t be a simple answer here, I’m afraid. I wish it weren’t so.

The worst outcome possible would be a lot of creative folks in a television production realizing the distinction between the two music licenses and creating a setup where there is five or six for video (script license, series license, translation license, likeness licenses, blah blah).
> Many in the world don't have access to a financial system. If they have internet, now they do (assuming they can find some way to onboard).

If anyone has access to the internet, they have access to banking services. I mean, there are internet banking services being offered in Burundi and Mozambique, two of the poorest countries in the world.
Nah, what's full of shit is you up on your intellectual high-horse acting as if you're the god of all knowable and unknowable things.

You yourself - o great one and master of all logic and intelligence - should know that a conclusion can still be true even if there is no well-documented evidence simply because enough research hasn't been done yet.

But of course it's much easier to blow people off with a "cite your sources, bruh" and then act like you know everything with a zero-effort comment. Yea, pretty sure it's you that's full of shit.
Have you checked a Whois history tool like https://research.domaintools.com/research/whois-history/ ?
He rant it every 60 seconds, so I don't think he was too concerned about tracking instances. And it doesn't really matter for purposes of classifying traffic levels.

That forum is what looks even more interesting than the hardware being reviewed in that post.

Depends on where you live. In the US, there are definitely no more carbureted cars. But overseas is a whole different story. I wanna say like 2017 there was Proton or something like that with a carb on it.

From some quick Googling... The Ford Ka in Europe was carbureted (and pushrod!) up until 2000.

I believe the VW CitiGolf was carb'd until 2008.

Lada's maybe had carbs up until 2014.

I think Proton even had one until the mid 2010's also.

Interestingly. I thought that here in the US, we got rid of all carb'd motorcycles as well. But Honda is releasing the 2022 Navi, and it's carbureted! Especially weird since they have other 110cc engines that have fuel injection.
With all these ARM/RISC-V based SBCs like RPi, I always wonder why no one every wants to make similar 8086/80386 SoCs and SBCs?
They only did that in the US, Netflix had international distribution rights.
Tesla has been near the bottom of CR reliability rankings for a while, this isn’t new. My Mazda dealership had the CR list prominently on display (with Mazda at the top last year). Musk has dismissed the CR rankings while touting Teslas’s great scores on crash tests and safety, and their sales numbers and apparent popularity.

My comment was sarcastic. I know several Tesla owners who seem very happy with their choice. Customer satisfaction seems higher than the CR rankings merit. Similarly I know people who love Jeeps, although that brand also gets low marks.
The kernel folks do a pretty good job of keeping track of which past commits a new commit "fixes", which they put in the commit message. For example, the patch linked in the article says:

Fixes: bf296b125b21 ("tcp: Add GRO support")
Fixes: f993bc25e519 ("net: core: handle encapsulation offloads when computing segment lengths")
Fixes: e20cf8d3f1f7 ("udp: implement GRO for plain UDP sockets.")

That said, using this to track how many bugs are introduced each year is problematic. It's often the case that commit A introduces a bug, commit B aims to fix it and says "Fixes: A" but turns out to only be a partial fix, and then commit C completes the fix and says "Fixes: B". Naively, based on the se annotations it would make sense to say "B introduced a bug", but as in my example, this isn't always the case.

Greg KH discusses this in his talk "CVEs are dead" (video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeeoTE9jLjM slides: https://github.com/gregkh/presentation-cve-is-dead/blob/mast... ).
The right direction, true. Touch screens are cheaper to design and build for, compared to physical controls, but do they benefit the safety or convenience of the driver? I don't think so.

However, apart from the touch screen being optional, I think Mazda has a fairly driver-hostile user experience with their controls.

I have a 2020 CX-5, and it's still very opinionated about how I should be driving. For example, it will grumble at you if you touch a white or yellow line, or if it thinks you're too close to the car in front of you and not braking hard enough. I'm generally a fairly safe driver: close to thirty years with a license, all but two years of that being city driving, and never had an accident. You wouldn't know it from the way my car yells at me every time I drive it though.

Oh, and it asks me to agree to a legal disclaimer every time I start it up! Love being treated like that.
I am going to guess that you know the answer to this already.
My heuristic is to extend pre-2022 trends outward:

Higher stock market even though everyone keeps calling it a bubble

More inflation, but not as much gain in the CPI as 2021

Strong GDP growth, same for corporate profits

Big tech gets bigger; Facebook, Tesla , Amazon, Google Microsoft stock keep going up.

No anti-trust action against big tech companies

No bursting of 'higher ed bubble' despite Covid

US dollar continues to be strong

Bezos, Musk remain richest men alive

Biden wealth tax fails

Fed raises rates maybe twice; bond market and stock market unperturbed

Higher real estate prices in spite of insistence of it being a bubble

More political division and unrest online, people are angrier than ever at each other online

Covid never goes away although daily case counts will remain below 2021 highs

Because it actually _is_ connected through an OnStar or similar system. You just don’t get the benefit unless you start paying the subscription cost.
You speak in absolutes, but the world is not black and white.

Look at the publicly funded Bell Labs in the 1940's - 1970's

They invented everything from the transister, tcp/ip, C language, satellites, cellphones, and the list goes on ... they were not-for-profit because the government allowed ma bell to be a government sponsored monopoly.

Look at that incredible work done, which would not have occurred if they had been forced to churn a profit each and every quarter.

It is a tragedy what happened to Bell Labs when they finally were cut off from being a non-profit in he mid 1970's. The shell of Bell Labs remains, iirc the buildings are now owned by Nokia, but it is a very sad result for the company that pioneered our modern society.

A great book on Bell Labs is called The Idea Factory, highly recommend that.

VW Up and its Skoda/Seat equivalents. It literally doesn't have a digital dash at all, instead it provides a place to mount your phone if you wish and a very basic radio.
Not sure I understand. I pay Comcast for Internet but dropped both cable TV and landline a couple years ago and cut the bill in about half.
- COVID will continue to be a thing. Some new variant will come along and force everyone to lock down again.

- The fed will have no choice but to keep interest rates low. This means we will have another year of rapidly rising asset prices.

- Supply chain issues will get worse throughout 2022, massively fueled by US-China tensions and COVID related shifts in demand. Major inflation like we haven't seen since the 1970s.

- Crypto will undergo a major crash in 2022. It follows predictable, cyclical patterns, and we are nearing the end of the classic boom/bust cycle. It is unclear whether this will cause the Tether situation to blow up.

- Mainly due to supply issues, we won't get a taste of any AR/VR metaverse type stuff next year. There will be a lot of hype-laden news articles about it, but nobody will actually live this future yet.

- Nothing will happen in China with Evergrande or any of these other companies. Nor will China invade Taiwan (yet).

- The "lie-flat" movement massively picks up. People don't realize how widespread this sentiment is in Gen Z, which doesn't need excessive consumerism to be happy, all they need is a computer. It is unclear what effects this will have on the economy.

The answer is always the same: no licensing deal could be arranged. The precise reasons for that may vary, and certainly the license holders will vary, but since there's essentially nothing you could do about that, there seems to be little point in Netflix telling you over and over "this would be available if we could get a license deal"
English has the same basic distinction: "Burg" = "castle", "Schloss" = "palace".

But upon having a closer look, things become complicated quickely: "Schloss" ist typically used for unfortified residencies starting in Late Middle Ages/Renaissance. But there existed unfortified residencies since the Early Middle Ages inside towns. The term for the early imperial or royal palaces is "Pfalz", which has the same Latin root as "palace": "palatium". Sometimes the term was also used for the residency of a bishop.

Then there are castles that were both, strong fortresses but very representative. Nuremberg castle, Trifels and the Wartburg are examples of these, or from a later period Heidelberg. Sometimes a castle was later converted into a sort of palace by tearing down walls.

The terminology varies in such cases. The "Heidelberger Schloss" (a strong but also very representative fortress) is called "Heidelberg castle" in English, "Schloss Mespelbrunn" (a converted castle) is called "Mespelbrunn castle".

There is also a rarely used standing expression "Veste" ("fortress") used as a title for some specific castles (for example "Veste Coburg").

I agree with the parent that the “theatrical backdrops for complex ceremonies relating to status and prestige“ is a bit oversimplified. But we need to keep in mind that the function of a castle is typically very complex. And the "theatrical backdrops" is an important one. That their defensive value was quite limited could be seen during the German/Austrian passant revolt in 1525 when thousands of castles had been destroyed in a couple of months, while the aristocrates nevertheless won the war in the field. Typically the castles had only a handful of defenders and quickely surrendered, or the aristocrates just fled and did not even try to defend their castles. Only some strong, well-manned fortifications hold out, often just barely like fortress Marienberg in Würzburg.
.io (like all ccTLDs) is not governed by ICANN, fwiw.

But your point is valid that domains are essentially registered according to the terms of a probably-long and verbose agreement.
Buttons and dials, sure. But no sane person is longing to buy a car without reverse cameras or collision avoidance.
Yet, are you rich after torrenting that? Of course not.

There's the disconnect. The phantom in the system that some people aren't groking; the leap of faith. Why do (a vast minority of) the NFTs in that torrent still have value, despite the torrent existing?

Why is Disney worth $275B despite all of their movies hitting The Pirate Bay immediately upon their release?

I can Google Image search pictures of the Mona Lisa with zero effort. Thus, the original is worthless?

I'd ask detractors of the crypto/NFT movement really think critically about those questions. Not just for minutes and hours; not just for the time it takes to bash Reply and say "lol right click save as". Read up about the history of money; integrate ideas about megacorporation control over our government and economic systems, human behavior and nature, and what the concept of ownership really means.

I can't refute all the arguments against in one comment, and some are legitimate. But I'll leave you with one thought which fundamentally changed my viewpoint on NFTs: isn't it beautiful that you can right click save as on an NFT? That this system exists which, theoretically, enables creators to see compensation for their work, one consumer of that work to feel ownership/responsibility, and the population at large to enjoy it for free?

Zelle today, FedNow instant payments in about 12-18 months.
Are they though? They make less money than streaming services... I do believe they actually lose money hosting these piracy sites.
Not fragmentation of payment, fragmentation of streaming rights across Netflix, Hulu, Disney, Prime, etc. I don't see the two as particularly related.
I wonder what would happen if the alexa recordings captured some HIPPA protected medical information that a customer spoke verbally in the privacy of their own home.

Consider a point on a wire. As the current gets going, the current at that point will go from zero up to the final value over some (small) period of time. The magnetic field around the wire at that point must also grow from zero to it’s final strength over that period of time. The growing magnetic field causes a current in the wire flowing in the opposite direction as the first current. This slows the flow of current in the wire (so that it doesn’t happen instantaneously), and it’s also the source of the energy in the field; it’s called the self–inductance of the wire. An inductor in a circuit is just a coil of wire so that the magnetic fields from many parts of the wire all reinforce each other and cause a larger opposing current in the wire.
This kind of situation is sadly usual in China and the World tends to turn a blind eye, like with the 'Uyghurs situation' so I hope WTA keeps the pressure.

Coincidentally I'm reading Red Roulette by Desmond Shum. His wife is in a similar state than Peng Shuai.
The Google TV app does a good job at that. It checks all my installed apps and links directly to the media item in that app if I pick a piece of media on one. It will also link to services I don't have, or offer a pay-to-play through Google itself.
I think people clearly want something like a Spotify or YouTube music, but for video content. You can host videos all you want on the internet, but YouTube and Spotify are popular because of it's aggregation and suggestions.

I want to watch shows that I'd like, I don't care who makes them. Finding good stuff to watch is harder than watching it, and people would clearly pay for a unified service that recommended you (and enabled 1 click viewing) of content regardless of license holder.

You can clearly see why content owners wouldn't want to do it, you lose the "stickiness" of your product, and have to compete with other shows for eyes, without the friction of "exit the app, open another app, find what you manually have discovered".

There's probably a 9 figure startup idea in there if you can figure out how to do it without getting sued.

There is so much noise surrounding NFTs, primarily in the form of hot takes and clickbait headlines, I’m exhausted and almost don’t even care to seek out the signal being buried by it.

Common sense tells me that NFTs — in the sense that they are non-fungible, immutable entries on a blockchain that cannot reasonably be edited or changed — are brilliant for things such as copyright, ownership (say, a deed to land or a car). They are practically permanent unless the electrical grid goes out, and at that point we’d have bigger problems than proving ownership.

This could also completely change the process of tracking and paying out things such as music royalties.

The list goes on.

Is there any thoughtful content out there regarding “why NFTs (and other blockchain tech) are good” rather than yet another Medium post on why they’re bad, actually? The pessimism is tiring.
>>Chinese values are different from Western values and I expect people on the other side of the world to respect and understand that.

The ability to criticise public officials and politicians without fear of being "disappeared" should surely be a globally shared aspiration, regardless of cultural differences.

As you say, this is no longer the 19th century. Societies evolve and leave behind unfair practices previously regarded as cultural norms.
4) Plex only supports some codecs. Oddly enough, my Samsung TV seems more flexible than Plex. For a handful of video files it's easier to just stick them on a USB stick and walk over to the TV than to wander lost in the dark forest of video transcoding.
I drive a 2007 SUV too for just this reason, and plan to move to an EV for the same reason. And there's another commenter in this thread who also has a 2007. Coincidence? I think not!
Have at look at Subaru's from like ~2014 or older. IIRC, the safety and reliability are quite good, and I believe they're pretty barebones as far as digitalization goes.
Absolutely horrifying how people can just "off" there, like a button. Unlike in the USA, where a high profile, human trafficker with connection to former presidents and billionaires, mysteriously "popped off" in the daylight by surveillance cameras "unfortunately" malfunctioning and guards mysteriously not in their place.

Or some other guy, was he called Edward? That revealed that the government itself was breaking its own laws, sneaking and policing innocent citizen. Something proven even later by investigations by the government itself! and he still had to flee the country and can't come back!

And 330 Million people, without fear of censorship or anything just "meh"ed it off

Gee CCP have to step up their "off" game, truly horrifying that they still have to employ censorship and fear to do it!
I realize the CCP would like foreigners to treat all Chinese people as a monolith, but there's no reason anyone else should agree to that.
What would you use them for, and how much are you willing to spend? Classic cars and italian sport cars don't have digital gimmicks, as well as american muscle. If you really want something without digital gimmicks get a motorcycle. People who really don't want to be tracked have a motorcycle.

To answer your question, it depends on what you plan to do with the car and how much you want to spend.
Toyota, Honda, Jeep, Porsche, Ford, Ferrari, Chevy.

I think you will always need a trip to the dealership and it won't even always be an issue with your infotainment. The exception is if you know how a lot about cars.

Also, people don't need your car technology to track you. I know people who lost 10k of camera equipment in their car because they were targeted using other attack vectors.

I have tesla at the moment and it has a lot of digital gimmicks. I am thinking of going into porsche or c8 in the next few months.

You brought up a really good question about privacy. I'm seeking some wisdom about that too. I know that my location, supercharging, and trips are tracked. Prob even sentry might be watched by a content moderator at tesla.

Now, let's say i switch to a porsche or a c8. Wouldn't i still have privacy risks? The risks are, my cellphone, wifi, bluetooth, credit cards, data brokers, cookies, in-store purchases, transactions, or even more sophisticated attack like using people i know as another vector.

You can even track people on the blockchain. I think the exception would be something like monero.

So, I guess can someone more knowledgable share info about the issues privacy issues with tech gadgets in cars. How big of an issue is it if you are already completely integrated in modern tech society?
My algorithm is like this:

Pick the body style you like/can afford.

Remove the engine and all electronics and sell them.

Install crate engine and aftermarket electronics to taste.
I have a third-generation Mazda 3 and their tech is solid. It's the basics (Music, Radio, Calls, Messages and a modest GPS). It's solid because it's not buggy, responsive and quite simple. I'm yet to have any issues with Bluetooth (which was a hassle on Renault/Fiesta cars). It also has no other privacy invading crap.
