The real traitor is Biden who handed the presidency to Trump and only cared about covering himself and his family asses. I think that was the point where you realize the democrats have just given up and did their part of selling the country. Some people must be now moving Bitcoin, Gold and other valuables out of the country before the big unveiling kinda like what happened with the soviet union.

Breaking the seal and demonstrating the capabilities, and getting it into the hands of consumers set the conditions for the Steam Deck's success. The Steam Deck exists because the Steam Machine existed, and it's in this context that the Steam Machine succeeded. You don't need overnight instant success for the program itself to succeed.
Just one tiny opinion and maybe a tiny piece of the puzzle is that the US allow chemicals in foods that are banned in the EU. There is likely a lot more to it but I suspect that is at least one factor.

> Inventing the automobile has clearly made humanity less fit. Should we stop driving?

Yes, pretty please.

I live in a town of 400 thousand, it's basically 10 kilometers accross. Very easily walkable. Why does everyone drive? I'm about as fast on foot as when they're stuck in morning traffic. I'm also enjoying my time more than the people stuck in traffic. (And I'd enjoy it even more if there weren't so many cars around!)

I don't understand people who drive to the gym to walk there. They could just walk to the gym and back, instead of going to the gym...
You’re calling Trump “economically illiterate,” but what you’re saying will happen is exactly the motivation of Trump’s policy. He just thinks it’s a good thing rather than a bad thing.

Trump’s bet is that the upsides will be borne disproportionately by his base, while the downsides will be borne disproportionately by Democrats’ laptop-class base. It’s not irrational to think that will be the result.
That's why lots of us are worried about when something happens to Gabe, and some black suited C level raven is promoted as CEO and starts asking questions like "why don't we push for the latest expansion packs? why don't we gate features behind subscriptions?" and all that anti-consumer shit that breaks with the original spirit of so many products.
Yes, this is the puzzle piece many are missing.

They see a way with china by the end of the decade so they are trying to remove dependence on their manufacturing and flip Russia to our side.

Except there isn’t any guarantee of a war with china, it’s just an idea they have. For all we can tell they have no intention of that. Taiwan is tricky though
I have been looking for something like this! I really like the interface. I wish I could click on the picture to enlarge it, so I can confirm that what I am looking for is what I am looking at. For example, we use 3-4 types of lentils and I am not sure if "brown lentil" in the database is the same brown lentil I have at home. I also really liked that I was able to search for "masoor" and the results showed red lentils; often I don't know the English name for something so it's hard to search.

Ask HN: How will Trump tarrifs affect remote workers outside US?
I am currently working remotely from EU against US and I wonder how the ongoing and escalating trade wars will affect us.

Anyone already being affected? What are your plans for the future?
FYI you can make your own installation media with a USB drive and the Rufus utility that can do several things for you:

- Skip the microsoft account step entirely

- Skip stupid "compatibility checks" (I have a garbage tower PC from 2012 that runs 11 just fine on my workbench)

- Automatically create a local account with full privileges

- Skip the long and drawn out setup procedure

And none of this is using any injected or cracked software as far as I know. It's just using group policy stuff in the installer that's normally used in corporate environments.
And who is their target demographic?

In some ways, it's because valve caved and did the equivalent of tax cuts for the rich. You have revenue more than like, 25 million/yr as a publisher and you reduce your infamous 30% cut to 20%.

CelerBuild vs. Jenkins: A Lightweight Deployment Alternative for Indie Devs
I wrote a blog post comparing *CelerBuild* (a lightweight deployment tool I built) with Jenkins, focusing on modern deployment vs developer control. Jenkins was too heavy for my small projects—hours of setup for a simple app—so I created CelerBuild to deploy to any Linux/Unix server with SSH, using just a Shell script. It supports any language (Java, Node.js, Python, etc.) and I just released v0.8.8. What’s your go-to deployment tool? Any tips for simplifying CI/CD?

IBM invented the Fn key so if anyone has their Fn key where the Ctrl key should be, it is the copycats.

> The Fn key first debuted on the monochrome display ThinkPad 300 in October of 1992. Yes there was a ThinkPad with a monochrome display. The Fn key circa 1992 was placed exactly as it is today. Interestingly enough, Apple uses the same positions for their Fn and Ctrl keys as ThinkPad. Every other notebook personal computer manufacturer that I know of has the Fn and Ctrl key positions swapped. Some would say backwards.

Specific rates weren't known because they were spitballed last minute, apparently based upon a ChatGPT conversation. That there were going to be significant tariffs has been openly gloated about by this admin and mouthpieces like Howard Nutlick for months. Do you think every other country needed a specific number to start their response plans?

And really that is a silly theory regardless. The US would achieve maximum effectiveness by doing a normal tariff legislative process and then soberly discussing with all parties. Instead it's constant on/off brinksmanship. Because Donald Trump is a profoundly stupid imbecile with a simpleton, child-like understanding of the world. There is going to be customs and business chaos as this is factored in.

>As far as reciprocity goes, how is this plan not based at least in part on reciprocity?

It has zero bearing on reciprocity. Reciprocity is matching the other party's tariffs.

If you're richer than the other party, or if they sell things that you want but you don't sell things that they want, that isn't reciprocity. It's like if I tariff my children when they buy from McDonalds -- I mean, McDonalds doesn't buy from me! - and claim it's reciprocity. That would be insanely stupid, right?

It's a massive tax hike on Americans -- a regressive tax that will hit the working and middle classes the hardest -- shrouded under some patriotic America thing. No way anyone falls for this...right?
Well I think that is the point. The university now are rolling over, not protecting their student.
This is really well articulated. It's like how a company uses fiduciary responsibility to shareholders to justify a pivot away from some kind of principled stance.
As far as quality goes, the main things steam looks for [0] to release is that it launches on the platforms you say it's available for, and that it matches the store page you've made for it. Presumably it'd have to be absolutely malicious for them to get involved past that

I am fine with that. If they provide any kind of valuable services I will make account with them and pay them money. So why not start with that small part of the project - make anything people want.
Isn't it kind of a bloodsport to get into the midweek madness or seasonal sales? It's like curated playlists in the music apps but for games.

> Other countries also have different population numbers. To take a random example, why would e.g. Uruguay (population 3.5M) buy as much from the US (population 100x) as the US is able to buy from them

Because the U.S. can buy from Uruguay only as much as 3.5 million people in that country can produce.
> a lot of people assume the economic consequences like these have not been understood by the WH

I think you're making the same mistake a lot of observers are making: you're looking at this from an economic perspective, and think those decisions were taken on an economic basis. But that is likely not the case.

The Trumpist movement is entirely focused on political aims: re-establishing old hierarchies of power inside the country, and entrenching them for good. The important work is the slashing and burning of welfare and safeguards for lower and middle classes, putting minorities "back in their place", and entrenching the wealthy into positions of absolute dominance. Everything else is a distraction, to keep newspeople busy and the population focused on recreating an idealized, "Happy Days" 1950 society. Enemies will be created to make you hate, this or that policy will be picked up or dropped just to keep you arguing, and meanwhile the important work is made irreversible. Once you destroy what was built over a century, it will take decades to rebuild them, and meanwhile the New Normal will take root and become impossibly hard to remove.

Fascism and nazism did not move from economic principles - they picked up what they needed as they went, opportunistically, because their main aims were fundamentally political. The Trump II administration works in the same way: the priority is political dominance to achieve political aims at societal level, everything else is tangential and opportunistic.
Not actually hiring in the US. Check Connor's previous postings. Now they're not even pretending that they can afford US hires.
At least I lived long enough to see the liberals who spent the first 55 years of my life bashing the US (often correctly) for imperialistically stomping all over the rest of the world, using its massive military to force its currency and culture on other nations, and meddling in the elections of sovereign nations to create puppet governments (just to name a few of our favorite activities), turn to pining for the former glory of the US empire.

That wasn't on my bingo card.
Yeah; the Steam Deck still runs a Zen 2 chip, while handhelds like the Ally X are on Zen 4. We'll likely start seeing some handheld PCs begin upgrading to Zen 5/Strix Point this year, and IMO that may be the point where these devices start actually being able to replace desktop gaming PCs for some gamers.

So many people around the world have been hurt by the terrorist US government. This lessening legitimacy will hopefully provide them some sort of justice.
Yes and: IIRC, their intent is to bolster the US dollar as the reserve currency.

Not that I understand it, cuz am noob:

Admin thinks US dollar is too strong. So they want to devalue it. Which will then trigger a sell off of US Treasuries, further devaluing the US dollar.

I have no idea if this is the Admin's actual plan, the merit of such a plan, or if there's any realistic hope for achieving the intended outcome.

If any one can make any of this make sense, please chime in. TIA.
That's a fair point, though CT is only strictly enforced by Chromium-based browsers at the moment. There would need to be some resolution to this issue, but the CT problem doesn't seem to be insurmountable in a 5 year timeframe if the relevant parties are motivated to solve it.
Does Epic take a smaller cut for the store? I know it becomes exorbitant to lease their engine, UDK, since they take a percentage depending on the licensing contract you've signed.
They really need to do much better about how they communicate this to users.

Developers are unable to opt out of the system and Valve will just put a "verified" tag on a game with zero input from a developer.

Valve needs to set proper expectations of who to be mad at when a game breaks on the Steam Deck if the developer themselves never pledged support.

Most users don't understand what an OS really is or how a game works on the Steam Deck (SteamOS) instead of Windows.
If you change the parameter to a more accurate <%50 of time the country has existed> you can include plenty of post colonial nations to that too.

> If it needs to go through a DERP server, then it may suffer but in my experience that’s pretty rare.

It's semi-frequent in my case, and it's painful every time it does that since Tailscale's official DERP servers are very slow (they seem to have some aggressive QoS). It would be nice if Tailscale supported using regular TURN servers so I could just use one of the hosted solutions.

This is the same president that took a sharpie to a map, to show the incorrect path of a storm, because he could not admit being wrong or making a mistake.

I've been running headscale for 2.5 years and it's been pretty good. We use our gmail domain for logging in, which gives a big benefit that users can self-serve their devices. Unlike with OpenVPN in the past where ops had to hand off the certs and configs. Really the only downside has been when they accidentally connect to the tailscale login server instead of our own and then can't figure out why they can't reach any services. We use user groups to set up what services users can access.

We are still running the old headscale, because we have some integrations that will need to be ported to the new control plane. According to "headscale node list | wc" we have ~250 nodes, most of them are servers.

One thing I really don't love about tailscale some of the magic it does with the routing tables and adding firewall rules, but it has mostly not been an issue. Tailscale has worked really quite well.
Why is the existence of the largest games on the market's survival proof thst Steam doesn't own 90% marketshare? Do people remember what monopoly means? Do they think any small dev can be a COD competitor tomorrow?

Btw, based on my friend Bazaar still has its own balance issues arising every other patch.
Frankly it sounds like someone who voted for Trump and wants to avoid having people criticize him for it, dressing up his "stop picking on me" schtick with pseudo-intellectual rationalizations.

You can't ignore politics when it's actively destroying your country - it's just not possible, and trying to ignore it is not the moral or ethical choice.
Breitbart is not a reputable source.
> Because the writing has been on the wall that people are no longer going to pay for operating systems.

I don't mean to be rude, but when has that writing not been on the wall? You can find scripts to activate Windows on fucking github. Like maybe people would be less apt to steal it if it wasn't so insanely simple to do that you could automate the process in a bat file?!

Add to it, I'd bet money the VAST majority of the time, people are using those things to install Windows to devices that already had Windows installed legally from the factory, with a legal license purchased by the OEM, that Microsoft refuses to, and has refused to permit users to reinstall with since I was a young bab in 1999, despite the fact that my GRANDMOTHER knows that the longer you run an install of Windows, the worse it performs, because it's poorly engineered.

Personally, I'd be fine paying for Windows if I could buy perpetual, permanent licenses for it that I could install with repeatedly, and that the OS wasn't constantly shoving ads in my face, haranguing me about using a stupid Microsoft account, and using enough telemetry to enable identity theft. But Windows licensing has always, always been exclusively the domain of PC manufacturers and corporations. Microsoft refuses to make it even slightly better to use for users, which is why users by and large just crack it and get on with their lives. $200 for a key you can use three times is fucking absurd.
A bug bounty might be viewed as a 24/7 pentest conducted by everyone in the world willing to work for the bounty price.

While you're waiting a few days for steve to get back from vacation and approve the PO for a pentesting contract, everyone else in the world is already pentesting your systems anyways.

Doesn't look like Verizon has bug bounties, so I guess we're lucky that the person who found this one was willing to work for free.
> Since trade is conducted largely in USD, that means other governments must purchase USD to trade. This is the core of trade deficits. Foreign countries buy US dollars so they can trade with other people. That guarantees the deficit since they give us something in exchange for USD

I'm not convinced it works like that. When a foreign country buys something from another foreign country using USD, the seller country then receives that USD. The seller country then use those dollars do buy something else from a third country - unless they have imbalanced trade and keep accumulating the dollars, like China does. But, in general case, there's only a need for a limited number of USD in circulation to serve as "working capital" for all foreign exchange. There's no need to keep getting new dollars, as the old ones get recirculated.
Most Americans just don’t care that much about international affairs.
This is no longer true. Said loophole was eliminated in 2017, and completely closed in 2020.
> If they fold and remove tariffs on the US

The issue with this is the "reciprocal" tariffs that were announced are not related in any way to tariffs imposed by other nations. According to the administration, they set the tariff rate for each country as (trade deficit / (imports * 2)). Obviously the country in question cannot undo this even by zeroing all tariffs with the US, because none of this is based on tariff rates.

Since the Nixon admin ended the dollar standard the world has basically been pumping the US economy in so many ways, enabling US imperialism.

1)Dollar standard guarantees countries will absorb US budget costs, since they all have to have dollars they have to accept their money devaluing as the US creates artificial inflation.

2)People buying the US stock market due to no fears of free trade, now why would a Chinese or citizens of certain other countries EVER risk buying US stocks? the trade has become so flimsy if even possible anymore, this is a cold war 2.0 at full scale, 54% tariffs on China are not a joke, that almost kills trade entirely, it wouldn't surprise me if China cut relations at some point now or if it keeps getting worse.

The real reason for this tariffs is a very Thucydides trap moment, ALL these tariffs were primarily targeted to China and countries that could potentially be a "threat" again if China were to "fall" economically, example: Japan, SK, India.

Oligarchs are for it because they want to eventually privatize the stock market and go back into a weird pseudo aristocracy, where they control the most powerful corporations in the world, just like back in the 1800s. (notice how Elon keeps SpaceX, Neuralink and others private?) Since the 90s unlike the rest of the world the stock market has halved in size in the US and the trend will keep going until only a couple individuals control the US economy.

This whole plan however has a flaw, it assume China won't eventually pass the US technology wise, but in the event that it happens, what then? will you not trade with China then? if that happens then you become basically North Korea where you are isolated from the latest technology, as the gap grows you get further and further behind in your standard of living. If that scenario happens it would be catastrophic for the US.
