While it's polite, IMO, to include some form of greeting or other pleasantries, in any kind of asynchronous communication medium, I do not want to wake up to (or come back from lunch to, or whatever) someone saying "Hey" or "Can I ask you something?" Chances are, by the time I've said "sure, go ahead", the person won't be there anymore, and then both of us just have to wait frustratingly.

The first movie I owned on VHS was one of the Indiana Jones movies. It was either free or super cheap with the purchase of a meal at McDonald's in the 90s. Most of my VHS movie collection though was taped off the air or from cable broadcasts. When I cleared out my VHS stuff in the 00s, there was absolutely no market for it and I ended up dropping off a box of tapes at a dumpster at CalState Long Beach.

Yeah, I agree that bikes and public transport can't meet everyone's needs right now.

I'd also point out that the traffic holding up your bus is mostly cars :) so if enough people can be persuaded to shift to the denser form of transport (buses), those buses would waste less time in traffic — and so would the fewer people using cars out of necessity, and emergency services and so on.
Hydrogen won't happen in passenger vehicles and it's too expensive to produce for it to be used for much else.

Electricity is one of the fundamental forces. Using an element like hydrogen will never be as efficient.

To beat electricity, you may be able to do it by controlling one of the other fundamental forces such as gravity.

I mean, just based off personal recollection, 2 VCRs was rarer than two TVs, since the second TV would be a small 15 inch in the kitchen permanently tuned to the Andy Griffith show or an old TV in the garage for football games.

But I’m sure there are some trade organizations stats about all this somewhere. And yes, I know people who had huge catalogs of movies recorded off TV (on beta lol).
You've mentioned "third- and fourth- wives" multiple times in this thread. Can you clarify? Israel doesn't allow polygamy, so how does that work? And do you happen to have proof that there's a conspiracy to increase the Arabic population? And even if somehow there _is_ one, isn't that something a democratic country should not care about?

Is this meant to be some theoretical gotcha? Firstly, anyone who believes in what you’ve quoted is soundly dismissed as a paranoid conspiracy theorist - a racist one at that.

Secondly, this strikes me as “you guys would pass the same law if you could get away with it”. But the main reason why this kind of law would never get passed in Europe is because it’s wrong and goes against human rights and the virtue of not discriminating based on race.
No, but endpoint to endpoint DNSSEC server/client with no recursion enabled should have your host’s DNS caching do the hard authoritative lookups and should alert you of such BGP hijack and if configured for DNSSEC-only presumably prevents you from going through your crypto-based transaction in that scenario.

I'm (almost) 24 and I can relate so much with your feelings. Except that I don't like movies. Or more exactly, I am not super down to watch movies alone. It has to be in a social setup. Most of my friends (mostly girls though) are addicted to their Instagram feed. It's a bit the norm, but there are some outliers. Maybe it's a generational thing, maybe not. But I guess in your days there was something to replace social media (TV maybe?).

This triggers some PTSD with Google Maps navigation in Finland

We have two official languages - Finnish and Swedish, neither of them big enough to warrant any Google effort for proper text-to-speech. Hence, the voice navigation first pronounces street names in Finnish, then again in Swedish, both butchered by applying English spelling rules, all voiced by an extremely robotic voice

Number of calories is the only option, but there are many techniques for compliance. I'm fine with saying that skipping meals and snacking helps some people compliance, hunger issues etc... and do it myself, but want to warn against the idea that one can eat as much as they want as long as they eat on a magical schedule.
I'd be inclined to be looking for excuses to put these all over the house.... I don't need them, but I want them just from this video.
This doesn't bother me so much as I would just not reply until the question comes. What pisses me off is when someone asks: "Can someone just quickly do x for me?". It trivializes the amount of work you are asking me to commit to doing. It's a task that only someone skilled in that particular technology can do. Why don't YOU quickly do it? Oh, because you can't.
Those that need legal force to adhere to the principle of freedom of expression simply do not support it. They often believe that they do, but in all relevant metric they certainly do not.

Instagram Banned in Russia
I will soon have two macbooks on my desktop in front of me. I hope to use the older macbook to run background tasks, like uploading videos to youtube and as a third monitor.

I have keychron k1 keyboard and an mx master mouse. Keychron is currently connected to the USB hub due to led lights, latency. But the keyboard has a battery and can work off of bluetooth. Mouse is connected through the tiny dongle that comes with logitech mouses. Both Keyboard and Mouse claim to work off Bluetooth.
Can I use this program to share the keyboard and mouse between the two macbooks? Or is using Bluetooth or a kvm switch a better option?

In my opinion, there may be two types of problems.

The first is organizational. Maintaining a cross-platform GUI library takes a lot of time, effort, and reasonable knowledge of the platforms it targets, so that would need a dedicated team of at least a few people. Which is not impossible, but you need to actually do this. The closest thing to such project seems to be Gio, but I haven't tried it, so I don't know if it's any good.

The second is technological. Most ways of interacting with (native) GUIs involve FFI, and in particular C. And cgo has known limitations and performance issues, to say nothing about the fact that using cgo make cross-compilation significantly harder. So a lot of Go projects tend to just avoid any project that involves cgo.

Again, that's just my opinion as a Go developer.

I think that is part of it, and part is also copying a pattern that is appropriate in some situations into situations where it isn't.

Meaning: I totally agree with the article that asking to ask is a complete waste of time on Internet forums, especially technical ones. Those intro questions usually go unanswered, as they should IMO.

OTOH, what I thought the article might be about before I read it, is when people in RL say something like, "May I you ask a question?" before asking a potentially sensitive question. There are valid psychology reasons to do that in certain situations.

It's common for people to mimic conversation patterns, mostly unconsciously. They can get copied into situations where it is just a waste of time.
It's not enough for everyone involved to have CAA enabled. They need to have CAA enabled and to select a certificate authority that does effective domain ownership validation, which - as the article suggests - means (at minimum) multiple-origin checking of network-based challenge protocols like HTTP-01.

Personally, I think anyone who has a heightened attack risk ought to contemplate a CA that does some form of more thorough validation.

> Internment. Mandatory medication. Segregation of whole sections of society. Mass sackings. A drumbeat media consensus. The systematic censoring of dissent. The deliberate creation by the state and the press of a climate of fear and suspicion. What could possibly justify this? Perhaps the combination of a terrible pandemic which killed or maimed large percentages of those it infected, and the existence of a safe and reliable medicine which was proven to prevent its spread. This, of course, is what we are said to be living through. This is the Narrative.

> But it is clear enough by now that the Narrative is not true. Covid-19 is a nasty illness which should be taken seriously, especially by those who are especially vulnerable to it.

>It was pretty crazy though when movies were like $99 on VHS.

Yes! They touched on this in the Netflix documentary The Last Blockbuster[1], where an old exec claims that any video copy displaced a huge number of movie viewings, so they came up with a high price to charge for them.

It showed a picture of The Empire Strikes Back with a $99 price tag, which, if you assume it was 1982, would be like $290 today.[2]

According to the documentary, that only changed after someone bought the (expensive) videos and started renting them out, which led to a court case that affirmed the First Sale Doctrine and said you had the right to do that. Then eventually, the video rental stores got the studios to agree to "have all the copies you want, as long as we get a cut of the rental revenues".

This advice applies best in business settings. Business is transactional and it's very rare that someone wants to "get to know you". Those who do, will let you know by getting more involved or talking to you outside of these types of requests, not just out of the blue.

> use flock command before your cronjob, hardly a ton of boilerplate

Let's not go there shall we.

Yes I know about flock, that's what I used.

But if you are writing code correctly, you still end up with boilerplate. For a start, you need to write extra code to check the error status returned from flock.

And then there's the overall point I was making. My "ton of boilerplate" referred to the overall boilerplate, i.e. flock was just one element, so then consider all the other boilerplate that was required to do all the other stuff that systemd does out of the box.

Frankly, its a no-brainer. Systemd wins every time.
Wow you have no intelligence whatsoever. You're basically advocating for one team's propaganda because you don't like the other teams. YOU are the problem.

If you are on Windows, check out Input Director instead, in particular it works great if you have non rectangular monitor configurations.
I think the idea that this many people have been duped by disinformation campaigns is in bad faith. People wouldn't be seeking alternative sources if they had any reason to trust mainstream corporate media, and the latter has proven themselves deeply untrustworthy given the number of political scandals and manufactured crises they have grossly misrepresented by cheering them on and making it clear that critical thinking around those subjects is verboten.

So of course people are going to seek sources that do not gaslight them and condescendingly hand them down information, expecting them to eat up every bit of it at face value. Corporate media sources aren't encouraging people to ask their own questions, form hypotheses, and investigate further.

On MSNBC's Morning Joe, Mika Brzezinski said herself: "telling the American people what to think is our job".

People HATE that! How arrogant and conceited does one have to be to say something like that with a straight face? She, and the rest of her ilk like Brian Stelter, can get off their high horses and treat people with dignity, and step a level up by encouraging viewers to verify THEIR claims and become their own researchers. Not to mention, CNN has become sex scandal central with their own leadership and staff knowingly neglecting and burying them to damning effect once they've been found later, further dimenishing trust.

One only need look at all the conspiracy theories that have turned out to be 100% true these past 2 years on a myriad of topics; and were called conspiracies strictly in order to silence and control the narrative in a direction that's profitable to the corporate media and other corporations, as they see competing information a threat to their own media and products, respectively.

So I'll finish with this point: give people a break and let them seek alternative information. Chances are, if it's not confirmed or found to be false within 6 months of sharing it, because people in high places lied or slipped up and proved them right, these people will be able to reconcile that. You would be pleasantly surprised how diligent these communities are in spotting their own misinformation and broadcasting those findings freely.
I don't have a lot of background in this, so tell me if I'm off-base. Israel is occupying land that it took from Palestine, is it not? I don't feel that terrorism is the correct term for attacks on an occupying force.

As far as I understand it, it not a binary "we are fucked" / "we are unfucked" if you are talking globally, or even large nations like the US, EU, Russia, China, etc.

It's a gradient. The more CO2, the warmer earth gets.
A few years ago it was already apparent that there would be a Russian reaction to some western dealings within Ukraine. It became true and was obvious. The only surprise is the decisiveness and direct invasion, the rest should not be something that fell out of the sky.
"The search engine’s stated mission is to “show you sites you perhaps weren’t aware of.” Its results, based on its own custom algorithm and data gathering, prioritize text-based Web sites that lack ads, mobile support, encryption, and other features that qualify as good S.E.O. “Google punishes sites that aren’t up to speed with modern Web technologies,”"

"slippery slope" is supposed to be a fallacy, I call it "seeing past patterns and extrapolating". Every problem we have as a society came about because of slippery slopes. They began from a relatively benign start and progressed organically as entropy, incompetence, and greed pushed it forward to a state that was dangerous or uncontrollable (e.g. politics, environment, criminal justice, etc).

The key difference in the author's argument and your counter-examples are that things like "being declared dead" doesn't benefit anyone (unless you were any enemy). Take a look at imminent domain, drug seisures, and for-profit prisons if you want to see how "virtuous and obviously needed power" go on to be used when inevitably someone corrupt or incompetent comes to power.

Once you create a lever for the government, it will at the very least go into the playbook of "possible tools to be used for control" (or more popularly, to 'help' people). Kind of how OSHA was the excuse to force all employers to require vaccines. Whether or not you agree with vaccines, can you see that the government thinking went:

1. We have an outcome we want, that is obviously good
2. Stupid citizens aren't complying with the Executive Order
3. How can we make them comply using something we have, and excuse it as "within the legal limits"?
4. Ah! OSHA exists and has broad powers, maybe we can say that we will fine anyone who doesn't have all workers vaccinated $150K per worker per month!

That literally happened a couple months ago, so not sure how many more examples you need before "slippery slope" of "people spending 10s of millions to acquire a powerful office want power" is confirmed.
I feel there is already a similar problem with the internet in general -- there exist keys which could be used to sign a HTTPS certificate for any website. If you work your way up the heirachy there are some very high-value keys, and the same kind of problems you describe would occur. However, we all just seem to live with that.

Something similar could be set up with, with a collection of keys. I'm not saying it's a good idea, but we already base the security of the internet on a small number of top-level encryption keys.
