> But personally I don't think IPv6 is ever going to happen.

Weird. I've had "native" IPv6 service continuously since... 2004? 2006? and IPv6 via a 6to4 tunnel that terminated in Hurricane Electric's network since two years before that.

Bonus: I discovered recently that the Zoom teleconferencing software works just fine if you have only IPv6 connectivity.

Is there stuff that's IPv4-only? Sure. But IPv4 doesn't need to be shut down for IPv6 to have happened (and have been happening for a long time now).
I'm surprised you use Macs since you usually lean toward more open HW and FOSS.
> There was never any promise like that

There wasn’t a treaty obligation. But there was a promise.

Similarly, there is no treaty obligation for America to respond to Russia nuking Paris with even harsh words. Just promises around the treaty obligation to take “such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force” [1].

Let there be no doubt: the United States is defaulting on its promises in Ukraine.

> The idea that they are secretly and suddenly changing their sales strategy

I don't know about "sudden". The reddit post is kind of old. That said, I have no idea when "Brother Genuine ink" even became a thing. I saw nothing at all about it when I bought my printer from them 10-15 years ago. It certainly wasn't mentioned as a requirement for getting support.

It sounds to me like at some point they got their tech support to tell customers that they need to have "Brother Genuine ink" in order to get support (or at least techs were told to strongly imply that was true) and now it's come back to bite them in the ass
I bought a TCL smart tv and I was forced to connect to a network & sign in to something before I could use an external HDMI input. If there's a workaround I gave up finding it.
I think this is rapidly changing, now that the US is essentially a hostile foreign nation.
Ukrainian nukes were about as Ukrainian as Texas-based US nukes are Texan — they were Soviet weapons targeting US cities, with launch authority and maintenance cycles controlled from Moscow.

After independence, Ukraine had physical possession of a huge nuclear arsenal but lacked the codes and infrastructure to operate or maintain it long-term. The only practical options were to dismantle them, bargain them away, or possibly sell off some nuclear material or technology to third parties — though they ultimately chose to denuclearize under the Budapest Memorandum in exchange for security assurances.

What could have truly deterred Russia was Ukraine’s enormous conventional military inherited from the USSR (actually, the size of Russia's), but it was steadily gutted over the decades through underfunding, corruption, and arms sales.
If you are unhappy with these, you should contact your state legislators to have this practice banned. Particularly if you are in California.

What a ridiculous statement. Any dictatorship is a subpar expression of a state. We don't have to figure out the best government. We already have all kinds of ideas about this collected from millennia of thought on this subject. We just have to study and bring it into reality.
I suppose you’ve never had to maintain a system heavily reliant on meta-programming techniques.
Or worse, some hacker/government locks your car doors, and turns your car into a remote-controlled 2-ton 140mph ground-to-ground projectile, while you're driving your kids to school.

Just make Sidebery one of those 3 or 4 recommended extensions when you first install Firefox. That extension is fantastic. Typically I'll disable the internal tabbing system entirely and only use Sidebery with auto-hiding.
Typically if you want to indicate that somebody is an immigrant in the US, you put the country of origin in the front. British-American or European-American would be ok I guess.

I guess an American-British would be somebody who immigrated to GB from the US in that convention, but actually I’m not sure what convention they use over there.

Anyway in this case they aren’t talking about anybody who’s immigrated at all so it is pretty much unrelated.

Well, AM and FM radio are plagued with ads, always were and always will be. As far as I can see this is just a replacement for the fact that nobody listens to radio in their car any more.

There is an entire older generation that is used to ads being blasted in their cars. The visual assault is new though.
Sun also produced the MAJC[0] (Microprocessor Architecture for Java Computing) processor, a VLIW design. It was only used in one of Sun's graphic boards.

It would be great to be able to buy a car and then delete the OS and install something I trusted on it but I can't imagine they will ever allow that. (If this is a real thing and I don't know about it please post here!) The printer world is the model I bet the car companies are all looking at WRT this approach. Litigate/claim DRM/make it hard or impossible for aftermarket/etc etc. Basically, these companies are the adversary as opposed to a partner in your driving experience.
As a patient with an under-served condition I quite often focus on the financial rather than human cost of not having a better system of care when talking about it.

If someone’s going to object to improving the system it’s mostly likely going to be on grounds of cost.
Reminds me of an anecdote from communist era Poland.

Factory workers were encouraged to suggest means of improving yield and reducing waste. In a pencil factory, a worker observed that no one sharpens a pencil all the way to the very end - there is a minimum length that is comfortable to hold. Therefore the last bit of the lead is never used, and thus wasted. Duly, the factory stopped filling the last 1/4 of the wooden shell with pencil lead and the worker was given a prize.

Next year, another factory worker suggested that, since the final 1/4 of the pencil is empty, they might as well get rid of it altogether. Factory accepted the idea and the worker got a prize.

First, optimize the country by deporting dangerous immigrants. Then, optimize the deportations by cancelling them due to price.
New Yorker here. Last year one of my meditation teachers here in the city casually mentioned that in some sects of Tibetan Buddhism there's a prophecy of some sort of catastrophic global event between 2026 and 2032, and a former monk friend of his advised him to leave NYC by 2030. From some casual googling it seems like the text is "The Light That Makes Things Clear: A Prophecy of Things to Come".

I'm a non-believer when it comes to these sorts of things, but if anything was to convince me otherwise it'd be watching Trump speed run us towards another World War these past few weeks.
First you need to identify young users. Which means you need to identify all users.
Not entirely sure. I now flush all non-allowlisted cookies on browser exit after moving to LibreWolf, so I'm less concerned than I was about that sort of thing.
will stuffing them full of ads finally be the thing that convinces people to give up the emotional attachment they have to their cars?
In car infotainment advertising needs to be banned at the state level, likewise much of the telemetry they send home. State legislation is good for this kind of thing. Like you cannot sell a car with this feature in the state or display such advertising while on state roads, possibly even you cannot register a car in the state with this feature.
At least the power plant is burning that fuel and spewing garbage into the air in a place that isn't your home. And power plants capture more of that pollution than cars do, not to mention that many of them burn cleaner fuel than gasoline or diesel.

And most people tend to keep their cars for 10+ years. The power grid is changing all the time, and it's likely in the time that you own your EV, the sources it gets powered from will become cleaner.
The UK also has a nuclear arsenal [0]. A bit smaller than France's, but the reality is both pale in comparison to the US and Russia. Europe has no natural leader, it's an ensemble of what some would now call random countries that only have relevance when considered together.

But that doesn't need to be an issue imho. Decentralized systems are generally messier but also more resilient than centralized ones. If this situation leads to an arms race of individual countries, the outcome may well be that the combined total force is the strongest on the planet. The question is whether they're willing to go there. They would have the engineering and industrial footprint, but they would completely need to change their political DNA. Avoiding armament of European nations is literally the EU's original raison d'être. On a more practical level, they would need to ditch the Maastricht rules on fiscal discipline, something that is also deeply enshrined in the EU's institutional mindset, as well as its laws. Or they would need to issue collective debt, but that runs against the political DNA of some member states. Everything is doable, the question is whether the sense of urgency is strong enough. Given how keen European leaders currently are to let everyone who wasn't asking know that they're helpless without the US, it seems that there's still a long way to go.

I'm not disagreeing with you! We just need people to make this sort of point thoughtfully, in keeping with the site guidelines. I know that's not always easy when strong feelings are present. (It happens to me too.)

I also don't disagree with you about people's lack of consideration for others, but I think the scope is much too narrow to talk about that as a HN thing or a SV thing or even a national thing. It's present way beyond those levels and may just be a fact of human nature (though fortunately not the only fact).

No country will risk its own annihilation to defend the borders of another country. That's why de Gaulle left NATO in the first place, he didn't want anyone else's finger on the french nuclear button than his own, he didn't trust the US would go nuclear with the USSR over France. Third party nuclear protections are little more than warm reassurances, but will amount to nothing when the day comes.

And to be honest I am not even sure first party nuclear protection is worth that much. French president Giscard d'Estaing famously said he would probably not have used nukes if France had been invaded under his presidency. What a moronic thing to say (it massively undermines French nuclear deterrence).
No bank is going to let you withdraw funds off of that $200k until it actually clears the ACH, plus a couple of days.

They have nice clients (e.g. for MacOS, Tizen). Ofc headscale is a thing, but if you have a company, it's also nice to have someone to yell at if your mission-critical tailnet suddenly b0rks.

Imo they don't charge all that much relative to their value, depending on who you're asking.
Somewhat tangential: JEEP products that are not the traditional Wrangler and all of it's myriad variations are most likely the worst American vehicles ever made. I'm talking the Grand Cherokee, Wagoneer, Compass, etc.

This crap is being tried on that vehicle because JEEP drivers are some of the least discerning car buyers on the market. A perfect test bed for the most toxic features American manufacturers can imagine.

So it's a great sign that they are noticing and complaining. If this group can't handle it, hopefully they will consider it a failed experiment. For now.
Yes, generally the only people who would be able to withdraw $50k from a savings account are people who are well-off enough to have $50k in a non-retirement savings account. Doesn't it follow, then, that such a person would be seen by the bank as a "well-off customer" and thus enjoy higher withdrawal thresholds?
> I feel like a lot of hype around Tailscale is because it vastly simplifies VPNs and their associated networking

Tailscale is based on Wire Guard, isn’t it? Now there’s a piece of software that truly made VPNs simple. I have a tunnel back into my LAN by way of an EC2 instance and all it took was two super simple config files on each machine.

That’s a nice theory but nuking empty silo’s is pointless.

So, attacking them just means they launch everything at you while also wasting your nukes.

No - the reason they do is because they can and it rakes in tons of money. Period.
Let me demonstrate the issue to you with a hypothetical situation:

An anonymous open source developer of a popular tool is identified by a bad actor. This developer is offered a million dollars to install a backdoor that allows the bad actor access to any device used by consumers or that software product.

Now, if that developer is anonymous to you, you have no legal recourse after the developer used their software product to launch a cyber attack on you.

That is the issue.

Also, not hypothetical, many such cases: https://arstechnica.com/security/2025/01/dozens-of-backdoore...

The largest "monitor" I can see on Newegg right now is 48" diagonal:

https://www.newegg.ca/lg-48gq900-b-48-uhd-120-hz-refresh-rat...

And that's an outlier— most are 27-36", with 32" being the overwhelming sweet spot.

In contrast, my TV is 77" diagonal, and most people would consider 55" to be about the minimum size for a new TV at this point, outside of special applications such as the bedroom/kitchen/etc. I don't know where I'd begin to go about purchasing a 77" 4K display from a digital signage vendor.

Whoa, that's not helpful.* We have to ban users that attack others like this, regardless of how wrong the others are or you feel they are.

If you're going to respond in cases like this, please make sure you aren't breaking the site guidelines yourself, because that only makes things worse.

https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

* btw, it also makes moderation a lot harder when people post like this. I'm not saying you need to care about that if you don't want to, but some readers might find it interesting to know: if you think that another account ought to be moderated, the worst thing you can do to inhibit that is to post an attack in the threads.
You're missing the the bigger picture by getting bogged down in technical details. To an end user, the difference between thirty seconds and ninety seconds is often irrelevant for things like AI, where they expect a delay while it "thinks". When taken in that context, you're now comparing a 14" laptop running off its battery, to a desktop rig gulping down ~500W according to my UPS, for a mere 66% reduction in runtime for a single query at the expense of 5x the power draw.

Sure, the desktop machine performs better, as would a datacenter server jam-packed full of Blackwell GPUs, but that's not what's exciting about Apple's implementation. It's the efficiency of it all, being able to handle modern models on comparatively "weaker" hardware most folks would dismiss outright. That's the point I was trying to make.
The fact that Brother cartridges even contain a DRM chip at all proves that the company is lost to the dark side.
Just stayed at a couple of places in Portugal which were "adults only" and it was fine. Also stayed at places which were explicitly child friendly and designed with facilities for children. Seems perfectly reasonable so long as there are a mix of places in an area available for different needs.

(I guess a hotel which had children allowed and non-children allowed sections far enough apart that you could have a child-free area would be a possible workaround; in the same way that not EVERY room needs to be handicap-friendly even if you need a certain number which are)
Some monitor brands have started pushing wifi connections. Samsung has "smart" monitors now, other manufacturers probably do too
That is somewhat confusing. If the problem is that 3rd party toners can't get the "chip holder design" right, then why would putting in a new chip fix it? Either that is a confusing name for something about the chip itself, rather than the mechanism on the cartridge for holding it in place, or else swapping the chip won't work because the "chip holder" is on the cartridge.

The capacitor is, I suppose, a more credible explanation and would explain my observations, but tbh, Both options sort of just seems like DRM by a different name. I can't think of a legitimate reason for requiring such a feature, other than making it more difficult to use 3rd party cartridges.

That would mean that it isn't a firmware issue, which is good to know, but it also means that Brother is engaging in the same category of practice: making it unecessarily more difficult to use 3rd part toner.
Yes but you don't own the bus/train nor the road with the billboards. But supposedly, you do own the car. Do cars get cheaper by adding ads inside? Nope.
It wasn't; the key part of the piece is the revelation that $50K was not in fact a huge sum of money for someone in her socio-economic class. The thing that caught Patrick's eye originally, if I'm reading correctly, was that she didn't get the usual "come back in a day so we can get the funds together" message.

I suspect although I can't be sure that this is one reason why he's elliptical in this piece. The core piece of information is that she misrepresented her wealth in the original article. Personally if I'd just been scammed I would also want to minimize myself as a target, so I can't blame her, but it's the discrepancy that caught his eye.
> Most importantly, don’t do it for money

Them's fightin' words, around here...

I used to be a musician (a fairly good bass player[0] -Don't laugh. That hair was the height of fashion, at the time).

I used to be an artist (a fairly good one[1]).

I ended up sidelining both of them for writing software. I don't really regret that, but writing software for other people really sucked. Sucked like a galaxy-core, supermassive black hole. I worked for a company that took Quality seriously, so I didn't have to deal with the internal shame of deliberately releasing crap software. I probably would have gone nuts, if that had been the case, and no amount of money would have fixed it.

I now write the software that I want to write, on my terms. It's a joy. I have to keep the scope pretty humble, but I have been having the time of my life.

I love sci-fi! Thanks for sharing. However to destroy humans, violence is not necessary. All you need is the power of language. How many people have died because of a false belief? An AI only has to convince humans to “drink the koolaid” or murder another religion in the name of yours.

No, because there is no CUDA. We have fast and cheap alternatives to NVIDIA, but they do not have CUDA. This is why NVIDIA has 90% margins on its hardware.
> The US convinced Ukraine to scrap their nukes

To be fair Ukraine didn't really have nukes. I mean they technically had nukes in their territory and maybe could have kept them if they really wanted to but it's a bit like e.g. Scotland trying to keep British nukes after declaring independence. Wouldn't make a lot sense.

Economically Ukraine was in a horrible state. Nuclear weapons have extremely high cost and I'm not sure if they even had any delivery vehicles? Also the the political repercussions, trade relations with Russia were very important etc.

Last but not least Russia and Ukraine were certainly not adversaries back in those days. After all Ukraine was on Russia's side when they attacked Moldova to establish Tranistria. Them going to war back in the 90s would have been almost as absurd as US invading Canada...

Roots like carrots? Sure! In fact, I'm inclined to think it's unhealthy to just eat soft foods. Roots like a stick? Our teeth were not designed for that.

Also, excessive chewing can lead to TMJ issues.
