> What is their opinion about being unable to go supersonic for more than short bursts currently classified as "will not fix"

Those two countries do not do carrier ops, why would they care about this at all?

MANPADs have intercepted a few missiles, but are not a tool for intercepting missiles.

> Yet it would have been a PR disaster if NATO admitted to supplying weapons to Ukraine before the invasion started. So MANPADs are implied to have sprouted like mushrooms in Ukraine..

You can’t be serious, NATO openly delivered MANPADs and vast amounts of other munitions before the war started https://www.armyrecognition.com/defense_news_february_2022_g...

Maybe try to learn some basic facts about the subject before commenting?

> Denmark joined because the US invoked Article 5 after 9/11

Article 5 has only been invoked once, and did not involve any actual conflict.

Have any of the competitors been proven in combat anywhere?

You’re just lucky, plenty of spam calls in the EU.

Of course they can.

European authorities are still able to enforce fines against him unless he’s exceedingly careful, even if he doesn’t have direct presence in the EU.

This is why many websites just block European IP addresses entirely.

You might think you’re safe in the US, but perhaps you use a payment processor with significant European presence? Stripe or Paypal, for example. European authorities can take your money.

> skate 5km every other day to get water

Is it so shallow you can’t just make a hole in the ice?

They don’t hide it better, there’s just much less of it.

What is that meant to disprove?

This is just lazy populist nonsense, why give it any airtime on HN?

His argument essentially boils down to that some corruption exists in Northern Europe, therefore Southern Europe can’t be more corrupt.

Yes, AppArmor and snap try to. Still worlds away from what Windows and OS X are doing, not to even mention mobile platforms.

Desktop linux still exists in a single user world today, excluding some exotic and super fragile setups you might see in .edu networks.

It’s worth noting that desktop Linux has mostly missed this development

Outdated and unpatched does not mean easy RCEs.

Let’s imagine you compromise a telco and get past the hurdle of these tractors not having public IPs, they probably still won’t have any services listening on the network.

If they do have some services listening on the network, that’s probably going to be John Deere’s own software and not e.g. an ancient version of Exim.

Without more information this is just silly clickbait.

Vehicle registration has nothing to do with ownership, you don’t have to own a car to register it.

In Europe we don’t have titles for cars like in the US. You don’t have to perform a weird ritual of signing over the title to sell a car, you don’t need a written contract at all.

From an European perspective the idea of a government registry tracking vehicle ownership seems downright bizarre. Our DMVs generally just track keepers and not owners.

For land it makes sense, but cars? why?

Sure, but you get to push your encoder settings far less than you otherwise could. You always end up with either significantly bigger files or significantly lower quality.

Swartz was going to get a custodial sentence of less than 6 months, quite likely just probation. A slap on the wrist.

What exactly did you expect the punishments to be like? A fine?

The result after recompression is far from impeccable.

> That's just because setting up cameras on public roads isn't allowed as you can capture people as well. Writing down license plates would be fine.

Nonsense. https://www.enforcementtracker.com/ETid-851

Yes, indeed. Pixel perfect rips of already compressed streams, immensely blowing up the size and requiring another round of lossy compression to actually be useful.

You can’t produce good quality rips like this, if that was the best solution the DRM people would have won.

Airbnb does this because fraudsters use it to cash out large amounts of money from stolen credit cards, they’re a lucrative target.

It really appears that this CVE was issued based on that super vague twitter thread.

You are very confidently wrong, but still wrong.

>It's about risk of absconding

And putting up a bigger deposit obviously helps address that risk.

>Secondly, no, cash bail is not a thing in the UK

It is. In the UK it’s called a bail security. It’s not common, but absolutely a thing.

See on lexisnexis https://www.lexisnexis.co.uk/legal/guidance/securities-suret...

>Someone being arrested in the UK for extradition is not part of the UK justice system

Absolutely is, and the rules regarding bail are the same.

>Unsurprisingly, foreign nationals can't have their passport taken away by a foreign country, who'd have thought?!?!?

What? Of course they can. It’s not at all unusual for people bailed for crimes in the UK to be required to surrender their foreign passports.

You just ask the target to install teamviewer or anydesk…

These are probably support staffers working from personal computers at home using some sort of remote desktop software, hard to enforce any security policies.

If this was genuinely an important issue to even just the 38 million people living under the poverty line, they could certainly find candidates. If you count low-income people as poor, you’re speaking of something like a hundred million people.

The real problem is that people simply don’t care. People are much more willing to go to the polls over their right to own guns than issues like this.

Wait out an appeal at their home. Rich people have fancier homes? Boo hoo.

Cash bail totally exists in the UK, even if uncommon.

I’ve had to hand over money to get a friend out after he was arrested due to an extradition request.

> If you've done something very bad, or are a big flight risk you will not be granted bail, but again, not a money issue

It absolutely is a money issue. The bigger surety you can put up, the less those things matter.
