How did this common-sense-defeating liability culture actually start in the US? From a European perspective it is really strange to be liable in situations like this.

I guess even a disposable vape has more computing power than the Lunar lander. (I don't know if that's more or less ridiculous than a key fob, but at least a key is not so disposable.)

Without paying for remote backups, can I just manage my own backup on my own hard drive, and restore it when I want to?

Also, "extremely rich" is like "extremely successful in life" to a lot of people. But for the latter, emotional connections are also important.

Are you sure? Because last I checked OpenSnitch used different techniques from namespaces, that seemed more brittle to me.

Is the Japanese diet so full of ultra-processed foods? Couldn't quickly find a source for Japan, but this meta-study [1, see Table 1] gives a list of the percentage of UPFs per national diet. It lists Korea (25.1%) and Taiwan (19.5%),

I guess, from a Western-European perspective, the problem is that with the choice of Democrats and Republicans you get the choice between right-wing and ultra right-wing. Having right-wing politics that funnel money from the poor to the ric

What I don't get is how the bar for the Democrats seems to be so much higher than for Trump. Sure, "the typical man" is more easily validated by Trump than Harris, but at the same time Trump says much worse things about women

Synthetic data can never contain more information than the statistical model from which it is derived: it is simply the evaluation of a non-deterministic function on the model parameters. And the model parameters are simply a function of th

The interesting question is not the choice between diversity and merit, but how you attract and select the most meritorious candidates in a setting where your company overwhelmingly skews towards one demographic, given that people are mor

I don't think this is a matter of merely re-shipping the same products. For example, if you look at poultry, the Netherlands imported 240 M€ worth of live poultry and exported 2300 M€. https://www.cbs.nl/en-gb/news

Punitive damages are not a thing in a large part of the world. In particular in the European countries where Paypal or some of its subsidiaries reside.

The reason you're getting downvotes is because your comment is irrelevant. The point of the article is the transition of passwords to passkeys. Minimizing the number of accounts you have has absolutely nothing to do with that. If the p

Amazon Prime Video is even worse, on Linux they only serve 480p. Any pirated file is much better quality.

Besides the actual hardware, I think the biggest problem is the software implementation of trackpads in Linux (at least in libinput/Wayland). Even running Linux on my Macbook, the trackpad experience is vastly inferior to macOS. I don&

You don't think that having children is a selfish decision in itself? I have thought long and hard about whether I want kids or not, and ultimately I concluded that I should only have kids if I myself really wanted to raise kids (regar

I think the concept of "licensing" should not apply to something you own. If they want to rent you a CPU, fine, but then they should also bear the costs for when it breaks.
