information asymmetry and lack of competition pretty much absolutely guarantees there will be no significantly lower involved

Strange how the police seem totally unwilling to act in the case of a much more severe blockage

if you want a full system format and are happy with the defaults, you can just keep pressing enter, and besides entering a username and 2 passwords, that is it as far as interacting with the installer goes.

you need to prepare for what you know what will happen, not just what you hope will happen.

Not everyone has an iOS device, or bluetooth/wifi enabled even if they do.

If there is an emergency, all the large companies can simply go to the government for free money, why would they care about doing anything but absolute profit maximization.

Surveillance capitalism is a better term

or as Nintendo puts it "Improvements to system stability"

yes, clearly it is the user's fault that their dishwasher wont work without an update.

ipv6 is hardly an abandoned standard, 35% of google users access google over ipv6, and it continues to grow every year.

IPv6 is also usually faster than ipv4 these days, because the overhead of fragmented ipv4 routing is large. In the past it was slower because of lack of understanding/support for it from larger ISPs, and consequently poor routes, or really suboptimal tunneling setups.

Another possibility, you are bad at detecting nonsense

I've got bad news for you if you think our current crop of politicians and businessmen are going to pick lives over profits in an analogous situation.

You are confusing simplicity of usage with simplicity of implementation. "dumb pipes" implement simple services for fixed or low per unit costs, the entire appeal of ready to use complex stacks like EKS is simplicity of usage.

but could easily collide with something at apogee, especially if the collision lead to a cascading style kessler syndrome event.

collisions can easily push things into higher orbits.

The problem isn't so much missing pixels, its that bright satellites raise the noise floor of the image significantly, the more satellites in shot, the worse it is.

Its the same reason telescopes can't just "filter out" stuff like city lights and human radio sources.

users are never going to switch because by-definition-minor-mailers cant reach them

Not in a legal sense, but in a practical one, companies had no effective way of locking you out of repairing your own machines, unlike today. No need for a round of pedantry.

I'm not sure why it needs to be done by billionaires independent of nation states, the trip to mars sure won't be.

It was not an update, started happening to me on arch linux, where Firefox does not automatically update. Seems like some kind of timed enabling of https3 support.

Asking a libertarian to understand coercion is like asking a fish what it means to be wet.

Do they need to be to poke a significant hole in your argument? They colluded with basically all of the largest high paying employers in the SV ecosystem.

That is absolutely going to have a massive systematic effect on compensation.

if you design a protocol to somehow have "upgradable" hashes, clients still need to be patched to support them, and old clients still will not work. Its the same mistake TLS and IPSEC made, supposedly extensible, but not really because to actually get new features, clients all need to be upgraded, and old incompatible clients still exist, and will never work with whatever new features you want to employ.

You aren't really gaining anything, and you might as well just have new versions of the protocol, and save all the pointless ceremony, complexity and security holes.

There is no way (beyond maybe embedding some kind of executable code in the protocol itself, which seems like an insane idea) to have support from "day one" for algorithms and functionality that don't even exist yet.

I'm sure shes very interested in keeping up the appearence of Google's Integrity

The counterbalancing forces google actively colludes with you mean?

I don't think many people consider tax evasion "democracy"

https://www.openssh.com/agent-restrict.html just got added to openssh

that has nothing to do with sshd's listening socket, which remains owned by root

you cant block the actual port bind, but you can block any packets from reaching it, so the difference is mostly semantics

Its pretty trivial to disable the ability of users to listen on certain ports higher than 1024 with a firewall config.
