Your definition involves strange mental gymnastics to turn a perfectly functional albeit expensive sewage system into a non-working sewage system. The end user experience of the sewage system in Dubai is no different…
There is no slavery in Dubai, oppression yes, but not actual slavery. You’ll find more slaves per capita in the US where prisoners are widely used as actual slave labor.
From the end user perspective that still seems like a working sewage system, no? It’s not like they’re making residents pay high taxes to pay for the tankers either.
Sure, but HN audience is primarily rich tech workers, entrepreneurs and temporarily embarrassed versions of those. In this context it makes sense to look at things from that perspective. On reddit it would of course be…
I mean I’m deliberately neglecting to mention all the European restaurants like L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon, LPM, Gaia, COYA, Zuma, Cipriani and so many others. Most of these aren’t my favourites, but they’re definitely…
Why would OP need to lie about this if he had a well documented history of posting this kind of comments? Now that would be weird.
Sorry, I totally missed the “Blindly believe all outrageous claims posted on HN” part of the guidelines. My bad.
Except it doesn’t. Twitter doesn’t usually ban accounts for tweets like these. And when they do, they’ll automatically unban you if you delete the tweet. It’s not like someone randomly tweeted child pornography or bomb…
Exactly! It makes way more sense for a person who tweeted something deeply out of character to try and disavow it in this way, than for a person that regularly tweets this kind of things.
I’m Ukrainian, very pro-West Ukrainian at that. I absolutely despise Kyiv Independent for working to discredit real journalists by pushing completely absurd propaganda, like the “ghost of Kyiv” lie. These things are…
Of course, but the fifth amendment only protects you from self-incrimination if you explicitly invoke it (or keep your mouth shut). Not if you lie.
I asserted that 5th amendment should prevent the government from using this coerced testimony. Would this not taint any investigation started on the basis of coerced testimony? Why would the exclusionary rule not kick…
Go on. How is forcing someone to testify against themselves with the threat of criminal charges (tax fraud!) and then using that information in a criminal investigation not a 5th amendment violation. I’m not a lawyer, I…
Presumably investigating someone over that would violate their 5th amendment rights, no?
> If trading hacked emails wasn't illegal, you'd have legitimate and big businesses trading them. But there are in fact big infosec businesses trading them. They just brand it as “data leak monitoring” or “darknet…
> Presumably, if Elon has a few rich friends, they could use their own money, vote as a block, and the board would still be screwed. But that’s just playing along with the spirit of the rules, not a loophole.
And now you’re watching stuff at an even worse quality than you would on Netflix.
Because you will lose out on things like dolby vision, even dolby atmos can be a pain in the ass to get working. Can you even properly playback 4K HDR content from Linux? I don’t think so. Format support on desktop…
Plex actually requires 0 maintenance, it’s the radarr/sonarr bit which deals with content acquisition that’s often a hassle. (Still infinitely better than having to manually choose and download torrents) Even a network…
I suppose the same can be said about your TV turning into a sentient killer robot.
I know all about this, my Plex server is rapidly approaching 200TB of content. Is it really convenient? Sure! As long as you ignore all the work that goes into setup and maintenance. I’d be deluding myself if I tried to…
The visuals have always been a huge part of cinema. You can hardly compare the experience of watching Lawrence of Arabia projected from film and Lawrence of Arabia in 480 even on equally sized screens. While there’s a…
What weight does trading hacked emails carry? As far as I can tell, lawmakers simply have not criminalized this. Many things that obviously should be illegal are not illegal.
But it really isn’t… The indictment mostly sticks to payment information for a reason. And besides, indictments are not law.
What steps were those? How are they distinguishable from the steps you would take to protect your website from being taken down because of abuse reports from upset people? Trading in hacked data might not be illegal…
