But that’s not fighting and some people have that sense of humor. Feel bad for them if they are unhappy, but if they are happy, why not be happy for them?

This is still quite far from becoming law. I applaud this second open letter for rightfully addressing major concerns with this proposal and I think the timing of it is right. This does show how difficult the line to thread between encryption and privacy on the one hand and fighting crime in the digital sphere like CSAM or communication between members of organized crime on the other hand is. Still, it is important to be very careful with these types of laws. After all, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
One song that recently has been putting me into a very good mood every time I put it on is “Read my mind” by the Killers.
That was a fabulous comment though
To be honest, I kind of wanted to see this become a reality. I’m not surprised this won’t happen, but the scifi lover in me is disappointed.
Displaying the price you will pay at the counter is my personal benchmark for civilized society. No price tags? You’re a medieval backwater. Wrong price tags? Go see a shrink, USA. Correct price tags is the way to go.
Reminds me of a script a colleague has where it would sometimes accidentally wipe the entire production folder on a server. I pointed out the risk in his script and explained how to correct it like 2 years ago, give or take. He said he did, but then last week it happened again because apparently he had several scripts like that and only corrected one.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t force it to drink.
I had to learn to not go overboard with nutmeg, because it’s a very strong flavor that quickly overpowers a dish and when it does, it doesn’t taste nice. But in the correct quantity on the right dish, it’s brilliant.
150/20 over LTE. It’s good enough, although we used to have 1000/150 when we still lived in an apartment. Upgrade of living came with a downgrade in internet speed.
Iraq has shown that with air superiority, you can completely crush any large opposing force with ease if it’s executed well. The reason why this turned into a conventional war is because neither side has air superiority. If Russia did, this war would’ve been over ages ago. That is also why I think in a Russia vs NATO showdown, Russia doesn’t stand a chance, not even remotely when it comes to capabilities.

Yep, exactly the same. Has saved my ass on an occasion or two when changing the uplink config.
I was in the market for something low budget with two nics for a local firewall. Since this gave me a nice discount on top, I ordered a zimaboard now as it’s pretty much exactly what I need. Thanks for the tip
Xanthates, Sodium Isobutyl Xanthate (SIBX) to be exact. Originally they planned on dumping 250 million tonnes of the stuff, but after revising their processes they are now planning a “significant reduction” of that, but not specifying how much exactly. Based on that revision they were granted an environmental license in 2020.
The exact impact on marine life is speculative, but I wouldn’t eat anything from that fjord or go swimming there for the next 50 years. It’s pretty toxic stuff.
It breaks down in carbon disulfide, carbonyl sulfide, hydrogen sulfide and hydrogen peroxide.

What’s your source on the spacex team distracting him? I can’t find anything supporting that. I do find some interviews from anonymous employees saying it’s calmer now that he’s so focused on twitter.
Ah, that hits close to home. I have spent a lot of time and energy to get my direct bosses onboard with following best practices and doing things right from the start. To their credit, they got onboard with it and are pushing that message themselves now. Of course, the board doesn’t care about that and just jams random projects with strict deadlines without any thoughts given to the IT aspects of it up our asses, but our head of IT has apparently grown a spine and started pushing back, with some moderate success.
The MO of my company has for years been: do a POC and then as soon as it works, push that POC in production. I’m still cleaning up the mess of idiotic shit like that from 15 years ago.
Where I live (Slovakia) you need a license to own firearms. Getting that license is a lengthy and rigid procedure and needs to be repeated every 5 years. Fully automatic rifles are forbidden for civilians. The most commonly owned firearm is a hunting rifle. If you happen to own a firearm, but don’t have a license, you are required to have it stored at a police station, for example when you inherit your grandfather’s hunting rifle. For that you pay a relatively low storage fee, but you still own it.
I think these laws are fine. I don’t own a firearm myself, but I do know one guy who carries a 9mm on him at all times for defensive purposes (his daughter had a very bad experience, after which he decided to carry a gun). I like the fact that a license is always only valid for 5 years.
Good question, but I don’t know the answer. I’m sure there are, but I would guess those will likely be in French.
I used to have my pockets always filled, but since a couple of years I have a leather bag (i.e. a manpurse or as my wife calls it: the gay bag) in which I have my work phone, keys, wallet, chewing gum, sunglasses, reading glasses, paper tissues and sometimes a drinking bottle. Also occasionally a book.
