if you don't mind me asking, when you say your kids 'have been so coddled', well... by whom?

Getting a 404 here.

>did you know that many shopping malls track you with license plate readers?

As well as cell-phone tracking to analyse footfall around the shopping mall (i.e., high-traffic areas, low-traffic areas).

Not even in theory. I live in Germany and can get 500ml of average beer for around 0,50€. That's cheaper than soda in a lot of cases (ignoring the cheapest soda). We can also drink in public legally, and it is socially acceptable.

Might I suggest carrying a small bag with you for your personal effects? Sure it's a change of habit for you, but with the ban you're going to have to change your habits anyway, and this means you can buy a nice, durable canvas shopping bag or something to that effect.

Here's a hot tip: you can reuse those plastic bags!

>but isn't the problem initial liad time most of the time? How could we solve that?

Off the top of my head, a good way seems to be to write better sites that don't include 10mb of javascript libraries.

Does anyone have any good resources for someone with reverse-engineering and security CTF experience looking to get into fuzzing?

Not exactly (Gates was in bed, Allen chucks him the magazine), but the feeling was portrayed fantastically.

>but what other solution is there to this particular problem?

I don't know, letting the machine run despite having a voided warranty would be a good start.

There exists the concept of criminal negligence. I would say being in the wrong and being incompetent are not mutually exclusive.

I'm assuming you mean irssi, rather than ircii. ircii is super old and basically unused these days.

Thanks for the heads up on the OpFor issue - I just started playing through the original HL games again.

>But see, I can understand weapons building. The motivation is protective towards one's society, and that is the intended result, even if that might not be the actual case.

Not really.

If you work for Raytheon, you are supporting a company that sells arms to the following countries: https://www.raytheon.com/ourcompany/global

Northrop Grumman have a list of their worldwide presence here: https://www.northropgrumman.com/AboutUs/OurGlobalPresence/Pa...

If you work for a defense contractor, you are not 'protecting your society' - that's not even the intent. The intent is to make money by selling tools designed to kill other human beings.

They sent donations to a free email service that the people calling for violent action against AfD happened to use. That's literally it.

I predicted the same around 10 or so years ago with the massive deluge of free mobile games flooding the market, making it hard to find genuine quality. Turns out I was wrong.

The argument to share your source code extends beyond the argument that the average end-user can take that code, alter it and redistribute it. The bar for entry for contributing to hardware is not 'has their own multi-billion dollar fab center'.

Most networks support a channel mode that only lets people connected to the server via SSL join the channel.

Some networks only let people connect via SSL.

Cool, I look forward to connecting to your Slack server.

Yes, as I understand it, that is correct. When you are in a country that is a member of the EU, your data held by companies is subject to the GDPR.

I'm afraid I can't answer your question directly, but printers being made proprietary was one of the things that led Richard Stallman to starting the GNU project, and the fight for companies to provide source code for the products they were selling to users.

>In 1980, Stallman and some other hackers at the AI Lab were refused access to the source code for the software of a newly installed laser printer, the Xerox 9700. Stallman had modified the software for the Lab's previous laser printer (the XGP, Xerographic Printer), so it electronically messaged a user when the person's job was printed, and would message all logged-in users waiting for print jobs if the printer was jammed. Not being able to add these features to the new printer was a major inconvenience, as the printer was on a different floor from most of the users. This experience convinced Stallman of people's need to be able to freely modify the software they use.

For sure. And one notable exception to this is Sweden (sort of). While they are in ERMII - and are obligated to join as soon as they meet the criteria - they are intentionally avoiding meeting the criteria as a means of staying out of the eurozone.

>Estonia is a member of the EU, and is therefore bound to use the Euro and only the Euro as its national currency

Just a nitpick, this statement isn't quite true.

>Nine countries (Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Sweden, and the United Kingdom) are EU members but do not use the euro. [1]

The term you are looking for is the Eurozone rather than the EU.

Unfortunately not. However, there is an open-source project Redshift[1] that I'm sure would be greatly welcoming of community support :). It also has a GTK client, etc.

Not the chap you're replying to, but we had that in middle school. I'm 27. I think it was a reasonably new thing here. I don't remember them teaching us much about economics, all I remember is a lot of drug paranoia, and how to make a CV that wasn't awful (which to its credit I felt was worthwhile)

Malware they might be, but calling them a virus is incorrect. They are not self-propagating.

How about a pluggable PAM module?

I really like this idea. I collect old videogame consoles, so I'm pretty used to paying Ebay for nostalgia. However, I wonder if old electronics are much less efficient and end up using more electricity - thus actually causing more harm to the environment than a newer but more disposable plastic model.

3m 5200 Marine Sealant is my go-to for permanent sealing solutions (they do a slightly less-permanent version - 4200 - that might be more appropriate)

I think you might be interpreting some non-existent malice between the two movements. Stallman's stance is simply 'There are two movements - open-source and free software. Please affiliate me with the correct one'.
