No, it just means that people from that area cannot handle higher temperatures and humidity. Many parts of the world are not used to higher heat and humidity, and those same places are experiencing both more regularly, so it's quite relevant, and scientifically valid. Pennsylvania is nothing like Alaska. Nor is it the same as Qatar, but that should be obvious to most.

The "won't someone think of my mom" argument. Somehow we get by just fine on x86 with arbitrary software being allowed, but for IOS it's unthinkable?

Hard problems are solved with money and political will. Political will is created with money. Money that is provided by companies who profit massively from the status quo.

That article says nothing about human society. The Earth will always be just fine. It's us that won't be.

I find it hard to argue with his reasoning. Temperatures are rising, we know why, and we are not doing anything about it because too many people make too much money from the status quo. We will most definitely not hit any targets that will meaningfully slow the increase of heating, and society as we currently know it will change, and not for the better.

TLDR: "Parts-pairing is bullshit", and Apple is fully invested in it. Repair means less sales, and they are willing to lobby at the highest levels to ensure their sales.

A VPN tunnel into your home network is one way, or a VPS you control that has a similar connection into your home network is another.

I would assume the reason is not a legal one, but a cultural one, i.e. having a very obviously foreign name a few generations ago in the US might make you a target of discrimination. Changing something like "Alexei" to "Alex" would help you stand out less.

> So in short, Warner Bros. wants less content, and more easily monetized big-tentpole productions for known brands. It wants viewers to pay more for the content they watch, and you shouldn’t expect to cancel as easily when you find out there’s nothing available worth watching. But there’s a positive to all this, you see. When asked about a potential theme park centered around Barbie to make bank off the company’s recent success, Wiedenfels said “the short answer is yes.”

Pretty much sums it up.

People who believe they should be treated equally and people who literally believe in a master race and genocide are not equivalent, and anyone trying to make an equivalence is either intellectually dishonest, or agrees with the Nazis.

"Some people think" is not an argument. Much of life is gray, this is not one of those times.

> Unions are necessary because your employer is richer, stronger, and has more lawyers than you do as an individual. In unity there is strength.

To me this is the key point, that often gets lost or forgotten. Companies inherently benefit from a power imbalance, proportional to the size of the company, and you represent a cost center to them most of the time. This places you at a huge, and permanent, disadvantage, and one of the only ways to combat it is unify with other workers and bargain. The only person or group who exists to maximize your well-being is you/your union, not your employer, so it makes sense not to trust the employer to look out for you. They're busy maximizing returns for shareholders.

How do you suggest the people who are using Tor for anonymity pay money to use Tor? That might make sense for cryptocurrencies, but for Tor I think it's unusable.

I've always thought that reality has made their business model obsolete and untenable, so instead of adapting, they lobby and get laws written to protect it. Essentially "rejecting reality, and substituting their own".

It's also quite hard to be in violation of a law you more or less wrote and passed.

When you're a core member of the W3C, and you use that position to push browser features that help your browser and remove features that hurt your ad/surveillance-based business model, you are a steward, and a bad faith one at that.

Your own phrasing indicates that there is a battle to be lost or won, and Google has indeed won. Which is pretty clearly a bad thing for the Internet as a whole, and quite good for a single company and their shareholders.

Ge transistors clip audio signals in a "smoother" way. A softer knee, its called.

It was originally compiled for penetration testers/offensive security people. You land on a box with low priveleges, check around for commonly misconfigured binaries, and get root.

A guy named Karl came to the exact same conclusions, in 1867.

It's funny how not one sentence mentioned corporate real estate, which I think is a far bigger driver of the push to in-person work than "you can't interrupt people on Zoom" or whatever inane reason these corporate types think justifies the huge (and patently unnecessary) expenditure in employee time and energy commuting represents.

Alyssa Rosenzweig is the very talented developer that has been bringing up the graphics on the Apple M1 for Asahi Linux.

Got any links/suggestions for those forums? I'd love to get some inspiration, like the OP provides in spades.

This I think is a result of the mythology of "rugged individualism" so prevalent in the US.

I also learned a valuable lesson from running a marathon. Mainly how to be comfortable with being uncomfortable.

You've just described what Marx identified 150 years ago.

> "Linux is running on every continent, on every ocean, on billions of devices, in orbit, and on Mars."

What a fantastically cool sentence!

I would suggest doing some research on what happens when you try to raise the bar from the inside. There are countless examples of retaliation, to the point of murder, against people who question the status quo. Often times people who do as you suggest end up quitting in disgust anyway.

Thanks for writing this. What happened to Turing was heinous, and I'm glad history has ultimately recognized him and his genious.

ReactOS is used in a similar manner for a lot of Windows devs, offensive security, malware devs presumably. Since Windows isn't open source, React is a great resource for seeing how things could/might be done, relevant APIs, etc.

Kagi lets you do exactly this. You can allow/block list certain site results, or create a curated list of domains to include results from.

> The negotiation power should go both ways.

I think you fundamentally misunderstand unions and the worker-corporation relationship. Historically, and through to today, corporations have most/all of the power. Which is why things like child labor, 16 hour work days, etc. were very common, until workers unionized, effectively pooling their power in order to negotiate with corporations. If you didn't have to work as a child, or don't have to work longer than 8 hours, thank a union.
