It's just a first step. Transferring crypto from a DEX to a fiat offramp may be restricted or illegal in the future.

Opera has a built-in 'VPN' option, which is actually isn't a real VPN, but merely a proxy server for web browsing. It's easy to use and if it's just about hiding your IP address to a web host, this may be sufficient

I don't see an advantage in holding Bitcoin over say, stocks, other than speculation, if for every transaction you have to choice to either identify yourself or produce tainted Bitcoin.

Privacy coins aren't. The problem with Bitcoin is, that it CAN be regulated to death.

I had similar experiences with DT. When taking RAW+JPG I always struggled to create an edit of the RAW in DT that is more satisfying than the out of camera JPG - and I watched quite a few videos and read a few guides, also trying to work wi

Well, I didn't mean that Canon products are particularly bad in quality. I own a perfectly functioning 40D from 2007 myself, which I replaced by a Sony A7III just recently, as I hate the fact, that Canon tries to force their customers

I'm pretty sure these devices won't last more than a few years before some electronic component fails. Same as for 'modern' cars.

What I meant was exposure compensation, sorry. Filmulator might be worthwhile to try, I'll check it out.

I gave Darktable a try (never used Lightroom), and as an amateur, it is still kind of hard for me to achieve something better than the "out of camera" JPGs when post-processing RAW photos from my rather old Canon DSLR camera. I do

I'm also speaking of e.g. the junkware running on automotive headunits. These systems are expected to be shut down at least once a day, so overall focus on (not only long-term) stability is really low.

Even with perfect hardware you will still have to reboot due to software instability. Lots of software isn't even tested to run for weeks/months/years.

Here in Germany the rights of ISP users are supposedly better protected than in other jurisdictions. At least that's what I heard on this podcast [0], latest episode iirc. [0] https://www.stitcher.com/show/cypherpu

What are people using VPNs for mostly, if they're living in a country without internet censorship? It's either your ISP or the VPN provider, which can log the websites you have visited, so there isn't a clear advantage of usi

So for each of the affected projects, there may be wallets that forged an arbitrary amount of currency using the exploit, which cannot be confirmed by an audit of the blockchain due to its private nature? Or am I missing anything?

Inadequate use of FSM is what scares me a lot, especially in embedded development. The current state in software should be the result of sensory information whenever possible. Or at least state consolidations based on sensory information ha

Not sure. This article [1] sounded plausible, when I first read it. It will be interesting to see how governments' stances will settle. [1] https://joekelly100.medium.com/how-to-kill-bitcoin-part-1-is...

Near-zero cost transactions are not sustainable. They're basically burning through their VC money to pay a small number of validator nodes to host their blockchain, which is not that different from using a centralized database.

Mono211 was such a quality netlabel. I used to download all tracks they (and other labels such as TDR) released back in the days and listen to them while learning to code. This shaped my taste in music as the only other influence in this pr
