>Well, there are the indictments against 13 Russian nationals by the DOJ, and all the materials necessary for that.

>https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/grand-jury-indicts-thirteen-r...

These indictments contain assertions, not evidence. Indeed, when it came time to go to trial, the government dropped the charges rather than present the "evidence" they claimed they had.

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/16/russia-election-jus...

>And there are reports from the intelligence services which are very clear as well, for example:

>https://www.dni.gov/files/documents/ICA_2017_01.pdf

>The only question is why you haven't found any of this evidence, haven't believed any of it

There is an endless number of reports, findings, Senate Committee conclusions, all of which are filled with evidence-free assertions. You may choose to believe the government and their evidence-free assertions, I do not. No doubt you put great credence into the letter signed by 51 top intelligence officials, including 5 former heads of the CIA that the Hunter Biden laptop was "Russian disinformation" - many people continue to believe this despite the fact that the letter has been proven to be entirely false, and the laptop was introduced as evidence at trial by the DOJ this week, with its authenticity sworn to by the FBI.

>It's almost as if you heard an opinion once or multiple times, perhaps from people or political figures you trusted. Then you internalized that opinion and it took on the attributes of 'belief' and haven't ever questioned it since it was formed. This belief became bound up with other things you believe, and now the defense mechanisms your brain uses to support 'belief' are also supporting this opinion in contradiction to facts that have been proven over the past years.

Trust and faith are for children and priests. I don't trust the government, the DOJ, Russia, any politicians, or anyone else. I trust my ability to very carefully scrutinize and interpret information. When a claim is made, I look at the evidence offered to support that claim, no matter who makes it, or what the claim is. I suggest you read the above paragraph (the one that you wrote) and try to understand how it exactly describes your own beliefs.

>Propaganda is insidious, and particularly treacherous in the way that it convinces people to argue on its behalf, and that the act of doing so reinforces the hold the propaganda has on the person.

I could not agree more, and your post is a perfect example.
> Why wound you visit a "few sites" when you can visit thousands?

A "few sites" was a quote from your earlier comment. [1] You're moving the bar. Perhaps you're seeing it isn't quite as easy as you first thought to do a good job with this.

> To make things harder, zfs send is an all or nothing operation: if interrupted for any reason, e.g. network errors, one would have to start over from scratch.

ZFS absolutely handles resuming transfers [0].

Honestly, articles like this make me doubt companies’ ability to handle what they’re doing. If you’re going to run a DB on ZFS, you’d damn well better know both inside and out. mbuffer is well-known to anyone who has used ZFS for a simple NAS. Also, you can’t use df to accurately measure a ZFS filesystem. df has no idea about child file systems, quotas, compression, file metadata…

It’s also unclear to me why they didn’t just ship the filesystems through nc. Assuming they’re encrypted (which, I mean, I would hope so…) it wouldn’t be any more risky than unencrypted via SSH.

Offline and anonymity has been gone for decades and no one seems to care. Quite literally not many people even cared when the offline version was taken away. Where ever you go and what you do is tracked constantly by a network of state-owned CCTV cameras. You're required to have a license plate on your vehicle that can easily track where it is at any given time. Banking institutions track your financial matters. These are just a tiny set of examples.

I think worrying about online and anonymity via IP addresses seems to be hand waving and shadow puppets. It's the typical "on an iPhone" mentality. As if the online and offline worlds are completely separate and cannot be governed by the same core principles. So if you care about an individual's right to be anonymous fight for the offline space because that's where it has been utterly and completely destroyed for decades and that's where it needs to be reclaimed.
Wait, even small talk is about status / position in a social hierarchy? Are you sure?
You can patent an ISA. And then everyone who implements that ISA, in hardware or emulation, is infringing. Intel actually threatened lawsuits against Microsoft for implementing emulation of recent x86 instructions on ARM Windows.

It’s a materialized view (so it’s the data structure providing key lookup).
they were playing whack-a-mole with all the alarms caused by the flood

That's common in computer monitoring systems, at my last job when we had a serious outage, we'd get dozens of pager alerts, it was hard to figure out the root cause because so many alerts fired that were caused by the root cause. I.e. like if the root cause was a root volume was out of disk space, the "unable to log in" alert was superfluous and not helpful. Eventually we moved to a better system that had a betrer sense of hierarchy for alerts as well as a way to easily silence them.
It’s a book review column, and the book is “Catland” by the literary critic Kathryn Hughes. She focuses on Victorian literature, so it’s not surprising that this isn’t a global survey of cultural attitudes about cats through the ages.
If you don't understand my comment on the energy perspective you shouldn't comment on the topic.

> What ship?!? Labs, medical facilities wtf r u smoking.

The Starship. SpaceX is currently building an interior for the Moon Lander together with NASA that will have those things.

For a small crew its totally possible to have this. Not sure what to tell you.

> And why dont you mention how many fueling launches you need to go to the moon in an essentially 'space liferaft' vs an actual spaceship needed to get to mars?? hm?

I don't even know what the fuck you are trying to say ...

Yes, it needs to be refuelled a number of time. So what?? hm?

Falcon 9 is literally launching every 5 days right now and it wasn't even designed with rapid reuse in mind.

> How? Just how is that infrastructure going to get there deploy itself and... it boggles my mind how you handwave the solutions to colonising a fucking planet.

I don't know why haters like you are so hung up with colonising. Colonising starts small. The solutions in the beginning wont be the solutions 50-100 years later. So criticising the current architecture with 'it can't do colonisation' is fucking stupid. Thanks captain obvious.

In the beginning its about establishing a research base that can be continously inhabited. If that can be achieved its fucking fantastic. And from there it grows or it doesn't.

And in terms of how. There are these things called wheels....

There are plenty of designs around for different aspects of the architecture. You haven't addressed any of them.

> Sure mate, you played minecraft and all you need is a crafting table on mars and whabang infrastructure poof icewater mining and puryfing faclities "shazam* and your farm is ready! So easy, who thought.

Those things would be built on earth. So your comment doesn't even fucking make sense.

Its not easy to do these things but you have not made any actual argument that its not possible or harder then other parts. Building the Raptor engine is hard, a lot harder then a device that takes oxygen out of the atmosphere. Building a device to collect water is hard, but a hell of a lot easier then building Starship.

You argument is basically just asserting things you don't know much about and then making childish insults.

Its funny how there are 10000s of really smart scientist and engineers that are working on different aspects of these problems and they all believe they can be overcome. But I am sure you are just so much smarter and more enlightened then all those people. Go stand in front off a mirror and pat yourself on the back buddy.

> Who is going to pay for all of it, and why would you do it in a first place? Cuz you are not setting up a colony, you are setting up the most expensive treehouse.

That's fantastic. I didn't know you were that optimistic. A continuously inhabited house on Mars would be absolutely fucking amazing. One might even say its a colony. Because, guess what, that's how colonies started.

Glad I could convince you.
It’s mostly just seething at devs nonstop for creating garbage schema, and then blaming the DB for their shitty query latency. Also, endlessly getting dragged into incidents because “the database is at fault.”

There are hardcore Nazis in my (german) home town - and they went to support their nationalistic comrades in Azow and co

So you base your view of what's going on in Ukraine not from talking broadly to Ukrainians; not from an objective reading of history and news reports -- but on what the Nazis in your hometown are saying?
I read the docs and I still can't get why I would prefer running this wrapper over running nmap or nuclei directly.

Also I wouldn't call this tool a vuln scanner, it's not, it depends on other actual vuln scanners to do the job.

Sadly there's also the old saying that "no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the average customer" (P.T. Barnum ?).
What you are saying makes sense IN THEORY. however in practice in the US most people have the shittiest insurance, at the highest cost. A chunk of america doesn't have insurance and we all pay a lot extra for their problems, and a friend of mine is in the chunk who is taking medication he is alergic to, because the stuff he isn't he can't afford, and finally we have the wealthy who have the best healthcare in the world.

Insurance for an optional thing makes sense: You don't _have_ to drive (okay, I'm in NYC), but you can, and you need insurance if you do. And mainly its to cover damage _you_ do to others.

For health insurance. Everyone in the world will need healthcare. Period. The only exception is if you're super healthy and then get your head suddenly cut off and are dead instantly. Other than this one case, you will need health care. The problem is that in america, breaking your arm, or getting alcohol poisoning may bankrupt you. And as any doctor will tell you: An ounce of prevention is worth 2 in cure. Let people get treated before things get bad, and they can stay productive members of society. As John Oliver said "the national anthem should be people holding out their medical bills and complaining in unison, because it is the only experience that ever single american has in common"
Yeah, they'll do it. You'll typically see a pair of cops with a speed gun. Then as you pass a curve, bridge, or other obstruction there will be six or more squad cars lined up. Speeders are picked up by radioing ahead. I've seen it in Illinois.
And the Mars one actually overstates it because you can use backbreaking to reduce that further.

So in actual reality with Starships design they are quite close.

I guess ChatGPT is pretty good.
It should be impossible.

The rotational inertia of these things is absolutely insane. They’re the mass of a star! Nothing short of a very close very massive black hole could alter their spin axis quickly.

They’re also extremely symmetrical objects because of the enormous surface gravity. A “mountain” on a neutron star is about a millimeter high.
MXM cards unfortunately seem to be incredibly niche and vendor locked with BIOs whitelists, but allowing for swapable GPUs on laptops would be amazing for e-waste reduction and upgradability. It's a shame the Framework laptops don't support them, it seems right up their alley.

Cool to see a project messing with them though!
> Maybe adjusting some straps and seat positions is more intuitive than digging for advanced options. Maybe it's significantly more difficult to surface options in digital mediums without introducing friction as a side-effect, because you're always fighting over screen real estate and screen legibility, instead of being able to just add a latch on the strap that's there when you need it and invisible when you don't

You design a different car to win F1 races, to take a couch across town, to drive a family on a weekend trip, to win rally races, to haul a boat … but in software we don’t want to do that. We want everything to do everything because “niche” markets are too small for companies to keep growing into the stratosphere.

Ehh. I rarely drank before the pandemic and now I essentially never drink. I don’t miss it at all. Wasn’t out at social events so I wasn’t drinking at all. I have probably drunk five, maybe ten units a year since. I consider it obvious that it’s generally unhealthy now.

I sort of lucked into a much healthier diet during the pandemic —- I had suspected Covid just before the UK lockdown, managed to get a supermarket delivery slot, panic-bought a load of healthy food and veg and then spent the next ten days reading recipes and rediscovering cooking for myself, as I tried to make things I could taste. Also developed quite a usefully healthy dependency on apples.

Both of these stuck, and I don’t really know why; habits are confusing to me because I am so disordered otherwise.

It’s interesting how the pandemic affected people in ways they might not have expected, with or without the benefits of furlough or the new-to-many experience of WFH.
I’m 12 years transitioned with both top and bottom surgery and live and work full time as a woman.

Alcohol tolerance probably evolved for survival since fruit ferments as it ages. Doubtful social needs were a big factor in that evolution, especially since plenty of humans still lack the ability to metabolize it.

I would agree though that some studies and their conclusions are garbage. That doesn't mean science cannot be advanced by better studies and experiments.
I have 0 faith in our governments to carry out any long-term projects that aren't military-related. Like wasn't a trillion dollar infrastructure bill passed a couple years ago? Where has all that money gone?

Winston Churchill received the first ever letter containing “O.M.G.” in 1917
Amazing. I have to take a crack at this.
If I want a boiled egg, chances are I want it soft-boiled (runny yolk but cooked white) which is the custom here in the UK. (As children we are given a softboiled egg in an egg-cup along with rectangles of toast called "soldiers" to dip in the yolk. I guess it's an Edwardian thing, redolent of Nannies and Nurseries.)

In all my 50 years I still cannot reliably produce a softboiled egg, regardless of the method. Do I bring the water to the boil with the eggs already in the pan, then count from when it reaches the boil? How do I judge a "rolling boil"? Or do I wait for the water to boil then put the eggs in, risking cracking? How do I adjust the timing if I want to boil multiple eggs?

I can hardboil them but sometimes overcook them and get that sulphurous green yolk edge, or I forget to set an alarm and underboil them leading to an unpleasant surprise later of a partially-cooked egg white spilling out of my inedible egg.

For fried eggs in my stainless steel pan (I don't have any non-stick pans) unless I pre-heat for ~20mins, the egg sticks and I often end up having to chisel it out with the spatula and breaking the yolk which depending on my morning mood can be a real downer. Added to which the underside is usually cooked way before the top, and the egg white in the thickest part is still clear and snotty, so I will try to flip the egg, doubling my chances of breaking the yolk and killing my morning.

Scrambled eggs are nice but easy to overcook to a dry pebbly consistency, and unfailingly create a quarter-inch layer of crusted egg in the pan which goes to soak in the sink and return later in the day as a jellyish monstrosity to cling to my hand or be clawed dripping out of the plughole catcher.

I love a filled omelette, but again it's a crapshoot - too hot a pan and the egg goes hard and rubbery on the outside, too cold and the folding is difficult, especially with solid items in the filling.

My point is, boiling eggs is undeserving of its status as a byword for simplicity. It's getting to the stage (for me) where it's an object lesson in how much I can fuck up a seemingly simple thing.

Art is not a job though, it was already a poor career choice to begin with, the fewer people that pursue it with that intent, the better.

I am no more sympathetic to illustrators losing work to AI than I am to baristas losing work to a vending machine.

I also expect no sympathy should software development jobs be automated away, that would only be fair considering the colossal amount of resources we waste, just because we can.

We have never and will never run out of jobs, and there will be no AI monopolies unless we let regulators create them.
I'm sorry but you are still avoiding my topic. Is or isn't Israel singled out by the UN? What is the metric of your choice? What is your opinion/position? Pick Asad killing 600,000 civilians or pick other examples of your choice and metrics of your choice.

UN Security Council resolutions against China is technically a dumb example on my side but my original statement you called a lie was:

> We can measure "unjustly singled out" fairly well.

> How much condemnation from the UN has China received for what it's doing to the Uyghurs?

> How many times has the UN security council discussed that vs. discussions related to Israel?

You googled that and found it's a lie. That means China was discussed more times? (veto isn't relevant to this question) The UN has otherwise condemned China (veto isn't relevant to that either) more times than Israel? What exactly is the lie here?

The US vetoes some/most security council resolutions against Israel. And sure, China can and will veto resolutions against itself. So that is your counter argument? As I said, you pick the metric. How many vetoed resolutions were there against Israel and how many against China? How many meetings to discuss these issues? If the security council wants to make a statement, as it seems to want to do endlessly against the US and Israel, then certainly it can keep bringing proposals and let China veto them, right?

What about the general assembly? China has no vetoes there.

I picked China off the top of my head as one of an infinite list of severe human rights violations that the UN shrugs off. Maybe it wasn't the best example. We can pick the Turkish and the Kurds. We can pick Syria. We can pick Azerbaijan. We can pick Pakistan. Saudi's actions in Yemen. I mean literally the list of "bad things that happen in the world that nobody cares about because no Jews" is endless. Most of the world is in a terrible state. You're nitpicking me on veto rights but you're not addressing my point.

Israel is singled out. It is the target of endless lies and racism. It is the target of antisemitism. There is no doubt about that and I'm not sure how you can be a "Zionist" and not see that.

This does not mean everything Israel does is right or that there's no criticism to be levelled at it. My argument isn't Israel should get a free pass because look how bad the world is. My argument is Israel is subject to antisemitism and double standards.

And this is before we even start debating the facts of the war and the history of the conflict.

Honestly most of the stuff I mentioned is pretty in line with Bidens infrastructure plan which did actually pass! But even if you say my proposal is pure political fantasy, so is giving everyone ozempic. If we’re actually going to dream of fantasy proposals, “give everyone drugs to mask one symptom of our many problems” seems to me an impoverished fantasy.
I'm in the same boat. I've been using 1p for a long time, and I'm generally a fan and advocate because it's the best password manager I know of. But I would definitely switch if a better product emerges.

The experience has gotten really frustrating over the years. 1Password used to be a delight to use, now it's bloated and unbearably and inexplicably slow at times. I much preferred the native app over the current electron version. The browser extensions are finicky. I don't love that the only option is for 1p to host my vault for me, but whatever, I guess I trust them.
