Handytinge··on Cloudflare Warp
> Upon the expiration of the initial period, or at any time thereafter, APNIC shall consider a request by Cloudflare for a permanent allocation of these IPv4 addresses to Cloudflare. APNIC undertakes to refer any such request to the regional Address Policy Special Interest Group as a matter of a change to the current research use designation of these IPv4 addresses, and APNIC shall be bound to the outcomes of this policy group.

Looks like Cloudflare are about to make a sizable "donation" to APNIC.

Handytinge··on Cloudflare Warp
I did a bit of reading on this, and it looks like the main admin was arrested weeks before the phishing campaign went up.

It seems therefore entirely plausable that the admin handed they keys to the castle to the FBI anyway, or at least gave Cloudflare the okay to go ahead.

I can't find a shred of evidence that Cloudflare were involved directly in making the phishing page or even complying with the FBI.

Handytinge··on After a Legal Fight, Oberlin Says It Will Pay $36.59M to a Local Bakery
> Is it worth it to throw away a human life in that black whole over a bottle of wine?

Except that's not what happened. The shopkeeper was assaulted and another shopkeeper (a member of their family) also assaulted before they pursued the assailant.

Handytinge··on After a Legal Fight, Oberlin Says It Will Pay $36.59M to a Local Bakery
Except that's not what happened. The shop owner was attacked in store by the singular robber, and the robbers friends were waiting outside.

The fictional account you've constructed you're probably right about, but it has little to do with reality.

> Gibson noticed that the student was concealing two other bottles of wine inside his jacket.[10][6] According to a police report, Gibson told the student he was contacting the police, and when Gibson pulled out his phone to take a photo of the student, the student slapped it away, striking Gibson's face.[11] The student ran out of the store. Gibson followed and then grabbed and held onto the shoplifter outside the store after the shoplifter had also assaulted the store owner, David Gibson.[6] Two other students, Cecelia Whettstone and Endia Lawrence, friends of the shoplifter, joined the scuffle.[6] When the police arrived, they witnessed Gibson lying on the ground with the three students punching and kicking him.

Handytinge··on It seems that the good times for online Minecraft play are over
What if I wish to create an online one, and have my friends and their kids play there too?
Handytinge··on Ask HN: Easing wife onto Linux laptop How to?
This whole comment is incredibly overreaching and reflects a lot more on you than the GP.

You should probably try and re-read it and take stock of where you're at.

They seem to be projecting the issues they have in their own relationships, obviously a hot button topic for a lot of people here.

For the record, 95% (literally) of the world are not Americans. If someone isn't an American, that doesn't make us European ;).
Handytinge··on AirPods Pro (2nd Generation)
The issue here is the consumer laws in your country.

If my 3 year old AirPods developer a manufacturer issue, Apple would be required by law to replace, repair or refund, free of charge.

Handytinge··on Almost half of cancer deaths are caused by smoking, alcohol, or obesity
Does it, in the same quantities?

Is one cigarette a day better or worse for you that one standard drink?

> We all have a responsibility to discern what is valuable speech and what is corrosive.

That's not the internet I signed up for, and I don't agree with or support it. Very sad state of affairs.

Handytinge··on Brew Is a Bad Neighbor
I find it interesting that you see this as an "asshole tendancy".

I don't believe most people in my country would take this as an insult. There are many people from many countries (and subcultures within those countries) with differing degrees of what they will take offense from. From my perspective, the developer perceived a slight incorrectly for sure.

Handytinge··on Australian Signals Directorate coin code cracked by 14yo in 'just over an hour'
They don't.

Preservation notices are incredibly rare, and no drag net requirements exist in Australia. CSPs are free to store such things, but generaly don't - beyond required metadata.

We'll take our pav mate, but you can keep your electric fence and zorb ball.
Handytinge··on Framework is now available in Australia
As the context of this topic is Australia, this isn't necessary. Warranties don't add much value compared to consumer law, which the vendor must comply with in Australia.

Anything I've ever had a fault not caused by me with has been replaced free of charge years after I bought it, including from large American companies like Amazon and Apple.

Crime and general safety aren't valid factors for deciding where to live? Interesting, why not?
Handytinge··on LackRack: IKEA's cheapest table is perfectly sized to rackmount computers (2020)
I have a full rack, all cooled, runs pretty quiet. It all just comes down to design. If you just stick in old random enterprise gear, you'll have a bad time.
Handytinge··on $8600 MRR business on Airtable
> Assuming profit would be in the $80-90k range, that's multiples lower than what a developer could make in a job

HN really lives in a bubble. $90k USD per year is more than double the median income in the highest earning countries in the world [0]. There are very few places in the world you could not live extremely comfortably on that income.

Even for software engineering specifically, there are only two countries where the median is > $90k USD. [1]

Handytinge··on Ford F-150 Lightning: Fast Truck, Slow Computer
FYI, most Teslas have two context sensitive buttons/scrolls/side clickers on the steering wheels, which can adjust many things.
Handytinge··on Ford F-150 Lightning: Fast Truck, Slow Computer
None of these are singular factors. Usually when people buy a car, it's a multi factored decision.

I did however fall in love with the simple interior of mine, as well as the instant power. I don't use the public charging network at all.

If we're providing anecdotal evidence, I've never stepped into my Tesla and discovered such things either.
Handytinge··on MacBook Air M1 screen crack for no apparent reason
It's also worth noting he's in Australia, where sane consumer laws exist that Apple have to operate in. The staff here are pretty good.
Handytinge··on Tell HN: After 10 years of experiments, custom username emails receive no spam
I also follow this system and have had this. It's disconcerting when companies who manage your PII don't understand the format of an email address.
Handytinge··on Ask HN: Bluetooth kinda sucks. Why don't we have something better?
I had to convert that, and I'm shocked. One of your devices is surely faulty. My Airpods Pro with pretty much any device I connect them to, I can easily get 150m (500ft) LoS, and easily 50-100m (150-300ft) with walls in a normal building, with no quality loss at all.
Handytinge··on Apple held up Telegram’s latest update over emoji
I ran multiple phpBB2 forums in that time with them. They weren't "emojis" though, they were emoticons. :)
Handytinge··on Ask HN: Anyone else feels the commoditization of real estate is unethical?
How so? It's a fairly common model for each individual apartment to have their own owner, and a body corporate run by the owners manage common areas.

Trolling on the internet for fun has been a thing long before Musk, and will be a thing long after.

Exactly right. Nobody's got their phone out whilst a wall of death is forming!

Luckily for the rest of us, the US is not "most countries", and makes up < 5% of the worlds population.
