It is undoubtedly a new piece of research, but the cause is always the same: corporations exploit people because they are taken out of government and democratic control effectively everywhere.

Some corporations employ more people and have bigger budgets than some countries and they often influence people's lives more than the government. Yet they're effectively electoral monarchies where electors and monarchs are just a bunch of rich assholes who respond to nobody.

Only when we change that system then those headlines will stop.

No need for acting when the (non-US) date format is superior

It's the tragedy of our times that advocating for basic human rights is somehow "leftist"

I create tables every day for run-of-the-mill stuff that simply doesn't need a database. No one has time for that.

It seems that your issue isn't the lack of tables in sheets but no easy way to create a simple db.

If we want to break Microsoft's monopoly than we can't do that by reimplementing Microsoft's monopolistic ecosystem. And that creates the opportunity to correct questionable and arbitrary Microsoft decisions.

People are used to MS Office now but so were they used to typewriters a few decades ago. And if we're changing OSes we don't have to stick to one office suite.

I strongly disagree. The porn is a huge issue, but there are a lot of actually useful websites where kids and teens can learn about their interests. Gatekeeping all that knowledge would make young people significantly less knowledgeable

I'm genuinely curious where their penny picking went? All of tech companies shove ads into our throats and steal our privacy justifying that by saying they operate at loss and need to increase income. But suddenly they can afford spending huge amounts on some shit that won't give them any more income. How do they justify it then?

the (reasonably) exact number is probs only really known by Russian AF Command

You overestimate Russian Army competency way too much... if they even cared how many people died

One issue with "hacky" methods suggested here I can see is they might disable eCall in the EU. And eCall is actually a safety improvement so for some it might be a very suboptimal compromise. But maybe if enough people show resistance to uncontrolled data collection then some meaningful legislation will be passed.

Drives are usually encrypted with symmetric ciphers (usually AES) and these are reasonably secure against quantum attacks with a key big enough.

And with the vast majority of crimes you just need to wait until the statute of limitations, which in cryptography and quantum fields is quite short period.

No more secrets.

Post-quantum cryptography enters the chat

Quarterly finances kinda answer that. Jumping onto the AI bubble brings investors, makes your company highly valued and gives managers fat quarterly and annual bonuses. It doesn't matter if the company or whole industry goes under in the future, because those bonuses have already been collected.

Who would decide tho who can impeach Supreme Court Justice? Because it can't be SCOTUS as that would be deciding in your own case and you guys also don't have a separate constitutional tribunal

I presume you're from the US but at first I was surprised you can even not take all vacation days. Cause in my country it is actually illegal to not use all vacation days and the employer pays a fine for that. Which leads to a bunch of people having days or even weeks free in February/March as they're using their vacation days (the law necessitates them to be used by Q1 or so of following year).

Poland went through such populist policies and their only outcome was massive inflation

"Never have I been so offended by something I 100% agree with!"

This is what it feels like to be a decent human being not a leech

Relevant XKCD for the OP https://xkcd.com/1053

Slightly related to the issue of remembering addresses, I think the main issue is with the fact that local nameservers are pretty much non-existent if you're not running OpenWrt or OpnSense. Which is shameful because the local nameserver is an amazing quality of life tool.

Also the fact that officially there are no local TLDs except for ".arpa" while browsers won't resolve one word domains without adding http://

And don't get me started on TLS certificates in local networks... (although dns01 saves the day)

I would love to start using ipv6 but my ISP decided that their devices won't support prefix delegation because "nobody uses ipv6 and nothing works with it"

Can it even make sense tho? To me JS is an example of a not too good thing that people started too eagerly so now they're trying to make it make sense.
