The same result for the average poor sap, the only difference is who’s pocketing that price increase.

> "Why didn't Amazon do this when the Biden administration hiked inflation to the highest level in 40 years?" Leavitt questioned.

Because then it was Amazon pocketing the profits.

I don’t even consider cyberattack a possibility since I assume all systems involved are completely airgapped. This was obviously something done from the inside.

> opened the schools to help communities of color

Farewell, racist schools. You won’t be missed.

That’s a really long stretch there.

What does open source have to do with this?

There will always be places devoid of normies, thankfully. They exist in every platform, new and old. Knowledge of dog whistles will be necessary though…

I’m too lazy to look it up but there was some string you could send over IRC that would make some routers drop the connection immediately - if you pasted that string in a big channel you would see dozens of people immediately disconnect.

That’s hyperbolic. An LLM gets you like… 90% of the way there. That’s much better than the previous baseline of 0%

Have you tried using code generated by an LLM? It rarely runs at all until you fix it yourself.

It reminds me of how ezines would publish source codes to run exploits with slight errors so script kiddies couldn’t run them if they didn’t know how to fix them.

How do you “accidentally post a photo”?

>it's like saying "hey I got free lemonade here, but you can't have it unless I decide I like you first."

Which is completely reasonable, you may need a different analogy.

More like they love their content so much that they think those who want to read it would endure that penance.

If you are seeing ads it’s probably because you inadvertently disabled your ad blocker or it’s not properly configured.

You have to reverse engineer the protocol encryption, which is illegal in some places. Also, lots of copyrighted material such as NPC names and quest text must be stored in the server and transmitted from the server to the client, which is piracy in plain terms.

First, to download the world of Warcraft client, you need to log into the battlenet client, which requires an account. Second, the world of Warcraft client is completely useless without a server to connect to. Alternative world of Warcraft servers are technically possible but illegal to run.

If we are going to discuss how to protect potential victims, yes, it’s very relevant.

I think maybe later means no. But it’s worded to assure the user that the choice is reversible.

Because our metabolisation mechanisms are extremely complex and many things, like genetics, decide how we metabolise food; we are not petrol engines.

I agree, but I don’t see how facebook getting punished gets us any closer to a good situation.

Both parents working make child rearing extremely hard but there are some obvious taboos around this discussion.

Your comment mentions that your nephew swaps between games every 5 minutes but it doesn’t say why that is bad. Or maybe I don’t see how the argument follows.

Piracy is very good and morally right except when it’s someone I don’t like doing it.

Just seeing HN mad like this makes things like these so much worth it.

Screens were much narrower then so constraining the width of text was not necessary.

> He and his cohort had to decide which health-insurance plan to choose, how much of his salary to devote to saving for retirement and other financial details. “Every one of us went out into the hallway and called our parents,” he admits. “We were graduates of really elite schools, and we still didn’t know what to do.”

That’s not because you are a child or an idiot. It’s because you know your parents have EXPERIENCE, and that is something you will never acquire from a course.

> I feel like GrapheneOS shot itself in the foot, being exclusive to Pixel phones. Pixel phones were great, in the past, but now they're mediocre

Interesting that someone would say this. I’ve had several Nexus and Pixel phones in the past (last one was a Pixel 2) and they were all pretty bad in terms of hardware and the support from google was non existent. I only bought for them for the software… which wasn’t great either. They have always been mediocre phones, to put it mildly.
