News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Because you haven't experienced a problem in your body that is rotten deep inside but shows little to no symptoms. My friend died in Alberta. It took two weeks to even see a doctor and more to wait for antibiotic shots.

Doctors try hard to not make problem a problem because the system is fucked in a way that doctors benefit from less patients. They don't try to cure. They wrap up the symptom and makes patients think it's a small problem.

Oh yeah, there is a way to be cured without waiting in Canada. When you're on the verge of death.

I despise hypocrites praising health-not-care in Canada. It just makes me sick.

Don't forget 6 months waiting time for breast cancer diagnoses.

Don't forget over a months waiting time for a simple antibiotic shot, which my friend died while waiting.

Don't forget, can't see a doctor for two freaking weeks for a simple stomatitis.

Don't forget 3+ months and waiting for a freaking endoscope procedure.

For everyone not in critical situation, your country's health care is shit. Don't even deny that it's fucked up.

Thanks god I moved out of that country after my friend died due to sepsis because of the fucked up system that made him wait months to get his antibiotic shot.

Re:Deanonymizing Tor Circuits on Sunday February 02, 2020 @01:03AM (#22215430)
Actually it's not like you think.

It's OK to use guards for yourself because

1) there are thousands of non-public guards(bridges) 2) you choose the path to the rendezvous point 3) middle nodes don't know the type of the traffic

Also there are a few things wrong with your article.

  And the rendezvous point must be in this list (because you shouldn't have a private rendezvous node).
This is not true. The spec does not specify that.

  Usually Choopa LLC -- a cloud provider that is regularly used by hostile actors.
Choopa LLC is not regularly used by hostile actors. You can't say that citing one report.

  However, the relay, rendezvous, and exit nodes must be publicly known so that lots of Tor traffic will use them.
Not true with rendezvous points.

If you need a location hidden service it’s wise to run your own guard.

Not enough airflow to filter air. Really, it's just an expensive way to waste money.

Seriously? 600mA? Air purifiers are rated like 30W for a reason.

Re:FreeBSD is an amazing operating system on Monday January 20, 2020 @05:45PM (#22102694)
If I want lot of work and an amazing operating system, I'd' ve built an operating system myself.

Since I'm a person with a job, run serious things and has a deadline, I use linux.

While they're on it can't they make http version of it? Some browsers don't support modern https, you know.
Re:BlackRock’s decision to dump coal signals what’s next on Friday January 17, 2020 @12:06PM (#22076546)
Quite a lot of the East does not. Also, UK replaced it's coal for natural gas because large coal mines are not near it.
Re:BlackRock’s decision to dump coal signals what’s next on Friday January 17, 2020 @01:30AM (#22072385)
Efficiency is not the factor when considering energy source. People pay money for stable electricity, not cheap electricity.

>b...but we can store energy!

No we can't. Energy storage systems are catching fires like Australian wildfires and until it gets solved, no dice.

Re:How Carlos Ghosn Was Smuggled Out of Japan on Thursday January 16, 2020 @03:26AM (#22062615)
The fact that the particular "criminal justice system" did not even allow him to contact the media sold me. He can't get a fair trial in Japan because their system is broken.
You don't know what earth's temperature was back then. And you're comparing the "estimated average" 20,000 BCE to 1800 to "the recorded temperatures" of 1800~ with a raw graph? And "coincidentally" earth's temperature changes dramatically after 1850s?

God, no wonder why some people believe strange things.

Overpopulation excluded the factor of "technology innovation". Climate scaremongers are doing the same.
That could be your imagination. Australia's temperature is quite in the normal range, similar to that of 1960s.

Yeah, fire because of arson?

There were much bigger fires past due to lack of fire supplies. What's your point?

fear-mongering much?

Marijuana legal states are rich or have been gentrified so they use less opioid.
Re:UK court rules MI5 agents can murder, kidnap, and torture on Sunday December 22, 2019 @10:53AM (#21857775)
Victim's feelings are not an excuse for censorship. Just simple as that.

Free speech will ironically protect victims because it allows us to uncover more accurate truth. Falsehoods like fake news, especially holocaust denials can't win against truth, but with censorship it can.

Re:UK court rules MI5 agents can murder, kidnap, and torture on Sunday December 22, 2019 @10:50AM (#21857748)
American democracy has it's flaws but at least it's protecting rights for free speech. I'd happily live in a state with free speech rather than some 1984 nation with slightly fair representation of votes.

Basic rights are order of magnitude more important than everything else. Good luck supporting candidates you like when you're censored.

Re:Ways to reduce the costs of an HTTP(S) API on AWS on Friday December 13, 2019 @11:12AM (#21782820)
First, they can offer both http and https endpoints. Second, you can send HTTP request if you set NSAllowsArbitraryLoads=true.
Re:Ways to reduce the costs of an HTTP(S) API on AWS on Friday December 13, 2019 @10:57AM (#21782650)
Or just encrypt in-house and use HTTP.
How about a Department of Truth to censor all your ideas, posts and ideologies? That should prevent fake news, right?

Fun fact: Engineers + Linux costs more than buying a bunch of Windows 10 copies with basic sysadmins.
Nope. If the government fooled the magistrate, it is disallowed. However if the magistrate has failed to decode the law correctly and issued an unlawful or unconstitutional warrant, the evidence obtained by the warrant can be used in court.
Yes. If the magistrate fails to notice the illegal-ness of the evidence and gives the warrant, it is valid nonetheless.
