I've been measuring my buy'n'hold portfolio in terms of total gain / time. Have I "lost" a bunch of money since the peak? Yes (most of my stocks are tech). Do I care about losses since the peak? No, that isn't how I measure value.

I've taken a similar tack when determining the value I have in a vehicle for example (or the cost/location of an apartment relative to common commute destinations). Basically, the value of the thing is in the utility I get out of it, rather than what others would pay for it. My car, for example, gives me a huge amount of utility in terms of visiting family, friends, engaging in hobbies, traveling relatively unfettered, etc. If I had to value that utility I would compare what I can currently do with the closest conceivable alternatives.

It makes for a fun spreadsheet puzzle, to be honest.

The last time I dug in and did the math, it was for housing location and cost, commute distance and cost, and cost-of-time.

unicredit.it is not on the list, but unicredit.ba and unicredit.ro are. (Lines 7331 and 7332) It does send HSTS headers.

danskebank.se and sella.it are not in the file, nor are the base strings, but both sites do send HSTS headers.

fideuram.it is not on the list, and does not send HSTS headers, so they don't seem particularly interested in security. They also haven't set an A record for the root domain, so visiting `fideuram.it` returns NXDOMAIN. Only `www.fideuram.it` exists.

> London, New York and Paris have multiple ballistic missiles aimed at them from different sites (that we even know about). Are you so confident that every single missile could be intercepted? Is Ukraine worth the risk?

If the world lets Russia get away with using a nuke with no serious repercussions it will likely lead to a serious increase in nuclear proliferation and destabilise the world.

Because if Russia can nuke Ukraine with no consequences why can’t other nuclear powers?

Because of this the best and most stabilising thing that can happen if Russia uses a nuke is a devastating and overwhelming response that shows the world what happens if you nuke another country.
My mistake, you are right.

During World War One, the government provided cigarettes to soldiers to help ease boredom and reduce stress. Prior to the war, less than 0.5% of American people regularly consumed cigarettes. By the war’s end, approximately 14 million cigarettes were distributed daily.

According to Lukasz Kamienski, a political science professor at the Institute of American Studies and Polish Diaspora, and author of Shooting Up: A Short History of Drugs and War, cocaine also became a drug of abuse on the frontlines. People turned to the drug to boost energy, combat fatigue, and reduce wartime anxiety. It gained popularity when the British army created a drug known as “Forced March,” a combination of cocaine and a cola nut extract. People then began to self-prescribe the drug as a wartime aid.

Many of the soldiers’ wives and girlfriends sent packages of cocaine and heroin purchased from London pharmacists labeled as “useful presents for friends at the front” or sometimes “welcome presents for friends at the front.”

ice only appears at the poles and mountainous regions. the poles are negligable for albedo becuase so little solar radiation reaches them. And the glaciers as a percentage of global area are negligable (glaciers are a minor % of land, and land is only 25% of global area. Clouds cover the oceans).

Why are you arguing like a lawyer instead of coming up with a valid point for me to rebuke? Obviously I was referring to just the general notion of people saying racist stuff in chat. It's no the end of the world when that happens.

Saying that you find the game less enjoyable when people say racist shit just makes you sound like an annoying person.

The fact that you brought up racism and then used this strawman of "game being disrupted" is actually hilarious and shows what a thin spine you have.

Amusing to see how the new management was put on a mission to eradicate original founder Rony Abovitz’s legacy as part of their rescue. Rony was all about magical experiences and glamour, the new management made the logo ugly, removed any reference to entertainment and uses “Enterprise” more frequently than a Star Trek episode. This is what Magic Leap should always have been, no doubt.
> If it were really "cost effective" it wouldn't need the constant cheerleading and handwaving. Nor would it need the massive government subsidies.

The total subsidies ever spent in solar are about the same order as the subsidy on a single nuclear reactor. That age is now over and most new utility scale projects (the majority of installations) are fully unsubsidized.

It won't even be economically preferable to keep existing gas running soon, let alone run a nuclear plant. Any money spent on nuclear now is just a handout to the builder and a handout to the gigawatts of fossil fuels that money could make obsolete.

These timescales of iteration are hard to imagine for folks that weren’t alive at the time. In my mind, Xerox was a photocopying company forever (like Kodak) and PARC was just an interesting thing they did.

When you mention that these were about a decade apart, the pace of technological progress seems insane.

My point feels pretty clear: Blizzard is doing this to raise the effort required for people to evade bans by making new accounts. People get banned for cheating, for being disruptive in chat, or for throwing games on purpose. I support this decision by Blizzard, because those things make the game less fun to play.

No straw men here, and racism is only in the thread because it’s a common example of people being disruptive in chat.

Citrix is far less of a company than it was not long ago. It is responsible in no small part for what we know today as remote desktop and VDI, it had all the Goto products, including GoToMeeting, and of course Xen. Many of these products hit the market before people knew what they were for… “why would I want virtual desktops, why would I want virtual meetings…” Some of it was awkward to use, but arguably only because it was such an early entrant. But lately, it has been unraveling, shedding the Goto line and all the related voice and video and collaboration products to LogMeIn… Microsoft now offers most of what Citrix once had exclusive. And now, … well, here we are. No love lost with me, really, but it does seem like a landmark in enterprise computing history.

> Law Compliance Cannot Be Voted

This isn't the end-all-be-all statement the authors think it is.

Law compliance can be voted, a community can absolutely decide not to follow a law and do illegal stuff with their software. Of course, then they get shut down by the legal system and the entire community faces consequences up to possibly jail, including the maintainers who didn't agree to the decision...

but this is not Fedora definitively breaking a law which will hurt the maintainers. This is Fedora fighting against a patent troll which will cause a big legal hassle and then back off.

I imagine the devs just don't want to pay for lawyers or don't have the funds, because you know, open source doesn't generate revenue. That is what they should've said: "we are doing this because the alternative is getting sued and we don't want to pay for a lawyer? Do you (the community) want to pay for a lawyer?" Maybe some think this message is rude but I like it, it actually puts this situation in the hands of the community.

> It's "Generation as a Service" at this point, and it's bullshit.

Wow that really is bullshit! Is this a US thing? My solar equiment is german... I think. Vendor is Fronius. There is a locally hosted monitoring web app, it can even create a wifi access point if necessary. It apparently works fine even without the network.

There is a cloud service too. It's meant for me as an end user but the solar company that I contracted took over the account I created in order to "provide remote support". I really have no clue what they're doing with it but I can't figure out if they're selling anything I'm generating.

Where I live (Brazil) the solar energy I generate gets converted by the power company itself into kWh "credits" which will offset energy consumed from other sources. These credits expire if unused so I have zero incentive to generate more than I consume. Not sure if this is the same as the carbon token you mentioned.
