Why is the default assumption that these attempts to contest parking fines are frivolous? Have you never received a fine for parking legally? The fines are created by a human after all. If the system was perfect, they…
Thanks for sharing the reasoning!

It also allows it to be much worse too. I can't wait to do tech support for my grandparents that followed the instructions to install ScamAppStore to install an app they saw on a Facebook ad.
The EU was actually on the path to forcing everyone to use micro-USB. Thankfully Apple (and others) pioneered USB-C (bringing what it learnt from developing the lightning connector) in the time it took the EU to go from…
People are spending more than 70% more on memory because that's all that is available. Everything seems to indicate that people will pay a lot more.
This outage started a lot longer than 13mins ago. At least now I have an excuse to leave the office and have a long coffee break.

And wikipedia runs off a tiny tiny fraction of what they raise. Almost all of the good on wikipedia comes in-spite of the organisation that owns it. Without the community pouring hundreds of thousands of hours into the…
Canada effectively requires leaving and re-entering. It can take multiple months for an online visa to get processed, meanwhile leaving and reentering takes hours.
You're being naieve if you don't think SNI will be fully deprecated in the future when a standard is settled on and reaches wide-adoption. Scare prompt fatigue is real. If you're constantly blasting users with "XXX…
Mozilla has frequently made questionable choices with its ad tie-ins and promotions. Mr. Robot ads, anyone? Unlike Chrome, Mozilla has also embedded full on data-collection schemes (Cliqz which tracked typing and…
Security upgrades are never opt-in, and for good reason. The status quo would remain in-secure. Every encryption suite upgrade, SSL software version, DNS versions, etc. maintained backwards compatibility for a window…
A valid claim. The unfettered access to. etc.
If you've run a site with CORS reporting enabled, you'd see that a significant fraction of your userbase have malware extensions running (prior to manifest v3). I was absolutely shocked when I looked at the logs a…

I think a big step forward, towards a better security model, was overall a good thing, even if it meant that a good extension no longer had unfettered access to everything your browser saw. I don't think this change is…
So you're saying that because Google didn't completely up-end the security model and break almost every extension in the one-go, we should have no-progress towards a more secure extension model? uBlock Origin via…

The average Joe wouldn't know where to begin in setting that up. That solution is far from solving the problem.
If you don't have the capability to train these models, then there's almost no chance of you having enough GPU power to run inference at a large scale on these models (assuming the weights for such a model are ever…
It's not the price of power that matters, it's the heat produced. Every extra W consumed is an extra W of heat that needs to be handled, and for consoles that tend to be chucked into confined spaces, that's an issue.…
If you're tech savvy enough to monitor your equipment, you're probably smart enough not to install "free VPNs" or "free stream pirate apps" to get pwned in the first place. You probably changed your router's default…
Right, this is orthagonal to the discussion though. While the IPs and bandwidth might be free, managing the malware botnet and trying to keep a low profile so as to not attract attention of authorities, makes it a risky…
