Canada (and other countries[1]) levy a tax on blank media (cassettes, CD-Rs, DVDs, etc...) to compensate rights holders for piracy of their work.

I lived on a US military base that regularly received typhoons. Damage never exceeded $5 million, and was typically much lower.

Much of the housing was built in the 50s. It was definitely low quality, including such issues as bad electrical grounding and about as many cockroaches there are stars above. At least, that's how I felt as a kid, anyways.

But, it was made of concrete and had steel storm doors. The biggest issue for us was flooding (we were at the bottom of a hill) but newer structures tended to be on stilts or have a sacrificial first floor. This was true both on and off base.

Rents off base apparently are pretty cheap by US standards. And this is with a climate akin to that of Hawaii with beaches nearby.

So it's possible to build well and be cheap.
No country has any recognized territorial claims to space. Roads are built within and between territories. I don't know of a road built on unclaimed territory that grants a far away government jurisdiction over every car traveling through the said territory, even if these cars used other paths or went off-trail.

I doubt FEMA money is actually used for the immigrant stunt and Florida is not unprepared for hurricanes. Florida actually has pretty good stormwater management infrastructure, mostly because it has to. Homes in South Florida are also required to be built out of concrete block and have hurricane windows. Point being: Florida is decently prepared for storms. Could it be better? Of course. But I would not say Florida is complete unprepared. I do think there needs to be changes to insurance and government aid though. We're distributing (read: subsidizing) a lot of the cost of living in an expensive area. We're seeing ripples of this with insurance companies not wanting to insure houses in Florida. That or making it more expensive to get insurance directly (premiums) and indirectly (you can't have a roof over 10 years old in some cases because, by law, they have to pay to replace a roof if a few shingles come off).

I say Florida a lot because I lived there up until recently, I can't speak for other states.
In general it doesn't seem like anyone is living high on the hog in California with these salaries and my remoting from the midwest, at lower pay, is the better deal.

What? Starlink eventually wants 40,000 satellites - with 5 year lifetimes that'll be 8,000 per year... there are numerous other planned constellations, so figure something like 15,000 LEO per year within a few decades.

15k satellites per year with a 5 year lifespan and a 1-year decay means you'll be stable at 75k satellites. 5 year lifespan with a 3-year decay means you'll eventually be stable at over 100k satellites in orbit with 30,000 of them 'dead' and decaying. That's a massive difference in collision risk.

Literally in the next paragraph it invalidates your point

> Reports submitted by banks to the IRS would break down the numbers to include physical-cash transactions per account, any transactions with a foreign account and transactions between accounts held by the same owner. The IRS wouldn't receive details on individual transactions but, rather, gross yearly totals.

This implies tracking of purchases. In particular, a half-awake person will use cash to make transactions they don't want someone to know about. It doesn't take much digging to correlate a cash transaction to something if you know a few more details.

At any rate:

> I'm never excited about moves that involve more tracking of individuals, but I also don't think it's fair to characterize this as "tracking purchases".

It is exactly tracking purchases. Whether it's disguised as "tax data" or "purchases" the fact is they know it. Splitting hairs is exactly what they want you to do to distract you from yet another incursion into our right to privacy.
One of the main use cases today for VPNs is to pirate movies or access geo-blocked content. That and dodgy hotel wifi.

I don't really see it as "giving" a commercial advantage to anyone if the new rule's purpose is to prevent something harmful and someone happens to benefit because they're already not doing that harmful thing.

In my view it's really a separate issue if SpaceX has too many advantages and that levelling the playing field somehow would be useful; allowing companies to grow too powerful does cause problems, and I don't think there's a moral requirement for regulators to be "fair" when dealing with corporations. They are not humans.

The need for that sort of intervention should not keep us from instating otherwise beneficial rules, though.

The language of the parent is strong, but the context is if those rebuilds were not subsidized, they probably would not happen anymore. If you get rid of the economic incentive to build there... no one would. Of course, to become public space, which is a logical use of damage-prone areas, the land would have to become so cheap from lack of interest that the state could buy it back. It would be a long process to get there, for sure.

> So, a nuclear war would be the consequence of NATO nuking Russia as a consequence of Russia nuking Ukraine.

No, NATO won't nuke Russia. The brilliance of the situtation is that Russia is so broken NATO can neutralize it using only conventional weaponry.

Russia will still claim it has to use nukes, as it's "too dangerous to the state existence itself". They won't have means, but more importantly, they won't have the will.

Of course this is all not clear nor guaranteed. That's the nature of a serious war. But we have what we have, and surely attempting to make the best steps possible.

The Pakistan floods were due to massive rainfall exacerbating glacial melt, both of which were triggered by climate change. Pakistan is responsible for fewer than 1% of global emissions and experienced catastrophic flooding anyways. It's an incredibly poor nation that got the short end of the climate change stick. The level of sorrow that Florida pales in comparison to that of Pakistan; I'd argue that Pakistan warrants $100B as much as Florida does (if not more).

Admittedly there's also grinding poverty in parts of Florida so I appreciate the comparison; that's a good hole in my argument.

Should we provide compensation for Floridians to move to safer areas? Yes.

Should we provide compensation for Pakistan for improved flood management? Yes.

Should Pakistanis or Floridians rebuild in the exact same places and the same ways where they've been building? No, unfortunately nobody gets that luxury. That's the horrible thing about climate change - we have very few options and they all have major downsides but we don't get to opt out. Florida's going to experience massive flooding regularly and Pakistan will face the same, and either populations in both areas adapt in some fashion (build for floods or move) or continue to experience mass devastation when the inevitable occurs.

I don't get to dictate where people live any more than I get to dictate where the flood waters go. It's heartbreaking but that's the world we're stuck in.

Thanks, I guess.
Part of the problem is that they never delivered on some of the features that really would have distinguished it from being just another streaming service. Features like youtube integration where a video of someone playing the game might autopopulate a stadia link to start playing that same game right now.

But the main thing they got wrong was the library of games. The success of just about every console launch has lived or died by the # and quality of games available at launch. Only in this case they were launching with games that were already available for anyone who wanted them. There was no additional market to tap into, existing PC games already owned the games Stadia was selling.

This meant the value proposition was either:

1)the low cost of entry for non-pc gamers. This is a relatively hard sell though. There aren't a lot of mass market games that you can't also find on cheaper consoles, so converting console gamers is rough, leaving you with non-gamers to bring into the fold, which is even tougher.

2)Convenience for existing games that already owned the same games. This is where Google really missed the ball. They should have used their giant size & resources to forge agreements with the big publishers that would let folks who already owned games on Steam to play them on Stadia. Pay them off the same way console makers pay for exclusive titles: a cost of doing business. Or a cut of ad revenue for ads shown during live streams of their games. Or even negotiate for consumers to pay a small 1-time fee to add a steam game to their account: This is a bit how Apple was able to be so successful with iTunes early on. Lot's of people already owned physical copies of music they ended up re-purchasing on iTunes because at $1/song it was pretty cheap to buy a "best of" sampling of your existing collection for the convenience iTunes offered. I don't think I would have purchased a Steam Deck if instead I could have spent a few dollars activating games I already owned on Stadia instead. Heck models for this sort of thing already exist: I've paid $1.99 to "read" an audiobook version of a book I already purchased from Amazon a bunch of times. There were multiple ways Google might have overcome resistance from existing gamers to adopt Stadia due to not wanting to repurchase their favorite games.

Instead the "free" games included in a sub were either a) already owned by the target audience or b) little better than shovelware. You got very little for subscribing

This. I'm not sure why it works any other way. If the location is somehow critical to the local/regional/national interest than those entities can subsidize the insurance cost. But the free market should handle the situation. If people want to live somewhere that's fine. If it's too risky to insure, than they are on their own.

GeoIP is only necessary when seeing a new IP. But once the IP starts to build a reputation, then the specific location can be determined. It's especially true if you buy something online.

MS is already stopping the bad guys by blocking the domain. You are supposed to do proper IR and clean up after yourseld including finding out the cause of the compromise which MS can't help with. What happens in the real world is people delete the file or webshell and think the bad guys are gone and if MS unblocks them then the campaign continues.

Or the bad guys themselves do that pretending to be the site owner. MS analysts can only inspect the normal site and the malicious URL that has now been removed in order to unblock it.

This is how abuse and IR works, I am surprised at the naivette of the responses here.
I‘m surprised to see the claim that the App Store approval rate is high for this sort of app. From the review guidelines:

> 4.2 Minimum Functionality

> Your app should include features, content, and UI that elevate it beyond a repackaged website. If your app is not particularly useful, unique, or “app-like,” it doesn’t belong on the App Store. If your App doesn’t provide some sort of lasting entertainment value or adequate utility, it may not be accepted.

I share your concerns.

It brings to mind seeing videos of primitive tribes being given automatic weapons and thinking "you don't 'deserve' this, you haven't evolved to create them and therefore shouldn't have your hands on them"

That's the way I feel about the internet with "modern" society -- we're still too primitive to use these tools. We're still of tribal mindset but we've been given something quite dangerous that we are not well equipped to handle.

I see the tribalism here in HN (which I consider to be a top site for intelligent dialog).
It seems there are more alternatives. Use the USB-PD supply for the laptop and another one for you 5 devices.

It's a bad laptop design. An iPad or Android phone/tablet can fast charge with a good supply or slow charge with a cheap one. The laptop should do the same, accept whatever the supply can deliver.

Also, what's the problem with the user using 5 individual small USB chargers versus a big one? The efficiency of all USB chargers is about the same, so it doesn't matter how you split them up. In fact, a small USB charger working at maximum output is more efficient than a large one working at 20% load.

You are correct that ideally the USB-PD supply should monitor the actual usage and route power accordingly, but I'm not sure it's such a problem in practice.
