DNS blackhole the domain and run.
I wonder if it's intentional.
At last, russians got better at installing wiretaps. Reminds me of the old joke that goes "How do you know there is a soviet made bug installed in your home?
There is an extra wardrobe."
I find it unlikely that we will have another once-in-a-century opportunity to be there at the opening of a new frontier like the home computer boom was or the internet revolution that closely followed it.
Maybe it's my pessimism speaking, but the AI boom most definitely doesn't feel the same opportunity wise.
I want to do this but I'm worried about stressing the compressor with extra start/stop cycles would shorten its lifespan. Maybe they are programmed to overshoot/undershoot the set temp to prolong lifespan?
Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about how ACs work beyond the very basics.
On the other hand if this becomes mandated by law I can see it become treacherous for endusers.
This is indeed pretty obvious when you look at Unity era ubuntu screenshots. The typeface and text rendering is unmatched to this day. And to this day nobody pulled off purple-orange like they did.
But I always had the feeling that even at their peak, they were spread too thin to go through with their vision. The DE looks stunning but the rest of the system apps carry too much gnome-isms that would've gone through extra 1-2-3 design passes if they had the means.
Now I use KDE, it's extremely functional, and broadly looks like how I'd design a desktop. But when I select ubuntu as the typeface, a part of me longs for that purple-orange.
Anything like this in 2026?
Also not really a censorship issue but I'm kinda bummed that the new version will default to having the server whitelist on. Going on an ip scanning site and joining random minecraft servers accindentally left on for years is an experience like no other. Some of the longer running ones are full of signs left by other explorers, or just griefed to shit. One of the few remaining wild wests on the internet.
In an alternative timeline with Nokia winning, linux would still have GPLv2 which has no answer for proprietary drivers and tivoization. Also, the desire to dominate enduser devices by corporations/governments would still be there.
Isn't this basically worldcoin? Aside from the fact that worldcoin is run by people I wouldn't trust to watch my cats for an afternoon, the core principle with well thought out ZK crypto could work well.
This adds even more complexity with the upside of preventing players from playing solitaire on their own for 10 minutes before passing an unwinnable boardstate to you.
Also most floodgates that grind the game to a halt (Gozen,Vanity's emptyness etc) are either banned or limited.
I'd say the game overall is very fun nowadays, but the original "design space" is starting to hit a ceiling with absolutely bonkers effects being printed that literally cannot be one-upped with the current rules. Read the text of Forbidden Crown to get what I mean.
Yes, culturally not as relevant but gameplay wise it is very fun. The current structure decks on offer are great if you have a shop nearby or a friend to play with. Though depending on where you quit, you'd have to get used to a vastly different speed and complexity of gameplay.
The endgame is certainly flexing the machinery that is being built up over the last 20 years and spawning a SEV-SNP container on your machine that cannot be debugged, inspected and modified in any way. I don't think this is possible as of writing though.

If there isn't enough outcry they will go forward and disable more signing keys related to things like torrent clients, VPN software, eject UBO from the edge store etc etc.
Atleast now I'm a bit more certain that VC is indeed safe.
I know we have cockpit but it never really clicked for me. Functionality wise too crashy and not so nicely intergrated, design wise it has the information density of a grandparent brick phone.
Having it in F-droid, vetted by their policies is kind of my benchmark for "software that is guaranteed to be not crapware."
That being said I'm rooting for the devs, having an alternative for tailscale+headscale would be nice, because as it stands it's kind of dependant on the goodwill of a for profit company (finite).
I can see like a 100 ways this can make computing worse for 99% people and like 1-2 scenarios where it might actually be useful.
Like if the politicians pushing for chat control/on device scanning of data come knocking again and actually go through (they can try infinitely) tech like this will really be "useful". Oops your device cannot produce a valid attestation, no internet for you.
