What about a special reduced uplink power mode, with only 128Kb of bandwidth for example? Additionally, you can conceal the dish from terrestrial detectors, by putting it in a forest clearing for example. Those two things combined might mak

I wonder if SpaceX has enough clout to influence the ITU decisions somehow, through political lobbying, for example?

From the article: "With current techniques, it will be hard for victims to identify who has assaulted them and build a case against that person." The author is trying to claim it is as serious as assault. That is madness. It'

The GNOME code of conduct is just so toxic, I encourage people to disobey it deliberately in protest, e.g. by making some offensive jokes. " Influencing or encouraging inappropriate behavior. If you influence or encourage another perso

This is just the tip of the iceberg: Bluetooth keystroke-injection in Android, Linux macOS and iOS: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38661182 These laws which criminalize viewing or reading things need to go now .

Yes, absolutely. It is today's equivalent of moral puritanism. It is absolutey inconceivable to me that a 21st Century society could be prosecuting people for viewing images . Distributing and making those images should remain a crime

What about reducing our usage of the Internet and using local resources instead? Personally I have local mirrors of various code repositories, and thousands of ebooks. If you want to nearly eliminate all surveillance, then you can air-gap y

Nobody should ever be prosecuted for viewing or reading anything, anywhere. Doing so is a hallmark of a de-facto police state. It's a fundamental liberty we have forgotten about as the frog has slowly boiled over the last 40 years.

They've joined the Linux Foundation, does that mean the models are going to be eventually censored to satisfy the foundation's AI safety policies? That includes ensuring the models don't generate content that's non-inclu

It's not sustainable because the more people they are, the worse their living conditions will be. Look at how densely populated Asia is. Does everyone want to live like this? Overcrowding is also not good for our mental health.

It depends on who's doing the theft. If it's a high status organization or individual they get away with it, including those behind the 2008 financial crisis. If it's a low status individual, they get put behind bars. It&#x27

Your stance here is ridiculous. Common sense says it's wrong to arrest and/or prosecute people over such a trivial matter. So much for all your supposed "justifications" for doing so. Have you completely lost all sense o

Then they can start cracking down on the problem if it becomes widespread. But not when it isn't. When the punishment far exceeds the loss caused by the "crime" then it is absolutely unfair, it undermines the rule of law itse

Roundup being used as "drying agent", even I didn't know about that one. So much for me complaining about Sucralose and Aspartame, now we have glyphosate added to our foods, in large quantities. Shit. https://en.wi

Yes, and my kids are likely to be like me, outliers, that will end up suffering the same way. And I heard the reason why teens act out so much can be due to the incredibly stifling environment they are in for their age. I think the rise of

Also power trips (especially by radio hams) and territoriality (impinging on "their" spectrum). It really is animal behavior there, people are supposed to react better than that when such trivial "offenses" happen. If th

Well the ground is creating that exact opposing electric field anyway. If trees were planted to the same height as the wire, then the loss to the electric company is the same. He's just in effect increasing the height of the ground sli

Yes, caught for "stealing" 63 milliwatts of electricity, from charging the 88uF capacitor in that video from 426V to 489V over a period of 40 seconds. If that was running all year round it would consume 0.6kWh of electricity, whic

Polychlorinated Biphenyls, Agent Orange, 2,3,7,8-TCDD, aspartame, patented GM crops and now glyphosate the list goes on. Monsanto (now Bayer) is really living up to the name of "evil corporation". https://dioxindorms.co

But again he is barely even abstracting a single watt of energy. To take legal action for such a trivial "offense" is beyond ridiculous.

I looked at the overall actions of the group of people, instead of what they are saying.

It's not possible to abstract any sizable amount of energy this way, unless the line is kilometers long. It's the scale of the "theft" that matters, which is so trivial compared to the inherent losses in the transmission

The line losses are so huge anyway, this would barely even register. Heck a few large trees close to the power line would drain more energy than this. Considering such a trivial act as "theft" is completely ridiculous.
