I don’t think it’s a conspiracy, but it is definitely odd.

In my opinion, the headline is very clear.

Yubikey also has usb-c versions with compliant plugs.

Indeed, sounds like a legitimate win to me.

It’s basically a FOSS Chromebook.

Ok wow.

Well, to be fair, back in 2020 the switch was also my first console since the N64.

Hope you enjoy it!

It always baffles me how many Mario Kart games they keep selling.

I guess it must be almost exclusively little kids who get it with their own first Nintendo at this stage.

Wow, air to air even?

But do you know what the COP is at -30?

Interesting.

At these temperatures, I can’t imagine air source heat pumps being very efficient.

I would probably have a spare gas, oil or wood based heater and use that for days like this, or for if the power goes off on days like this.

Do most Finnish people pay spot prices for electricity?

And when you subscribe to 1 or 2 rotating streaming services and only torrent for personal archiving purposes, you aren’t even depriving the streaming services of any revenue.

We should call it archiving instead of piracy to be honest.

This right here.

The TV comes with the cheapest removable feet, because VESA mounts exist.

Thanks, that clarifies it and definitely answers my question.

Anyone know if this Archeologist edition also includes the main game?

I presume so, since edition kind of implies a minor deviation or bonus stuff.

The best solution I can think of is to have something like Tor.taxi

Also, they curate the collection so that it doesn’t get filled with low quality garbage.

Part of preserving and sharing knowledge is doing quality control.

It’s a joke.

UTF-16 already exists, which doesn’t favor Roman characters as much, but UTF-8 is more popular because it is backword compatible with the legacy ASCII.

UTF-32 also exists which has exactly equal length representation for every character.

But the thing that equalizes languages is compression.

Yes, a text written in Cyrillic with UTF-8 will take more space than a Roman language, easily double. However this extra space is much more easily compressed by an algorithm like GZIP.

So after compression, the two compressed texts will then be similarly sized and much smaller than UTF-16 or UTF-32.

You are right, but it’s not just poor developed countries and not just windows either.

Back in the 1990s, copy protection in general was weak and companies wishing to expand market share did not prioritize combating piracy.

They always just focused on making the big companies pay through licensing audits and kept prices high to ensure revenue.

The whole industry just accepted that students, researchers and tinkerers would pirate their software.

Photoshop, Office, Visual Studio and even enterprise software like Oracle had this dual strategy: let piracy help spread market share among those who can’t or won’t pay, while maintaining high prices and security audits to drive revenue from companies.

Many companies still follow this strategy.

Indeed.

Torrenting over I2P is the future. No need for VPN and no dependency on donated bandwidth like with Tor.

The technology needs a bit of refinement and it seems they are struggling to attract and maintain good developers.

In my opinion, the fundamental protocols of I2P need a revamp to make torrenting faster and more efficient.

It will take a few years before we solve these problems.

For sure, but population wise they are also just smaller. Not that many British/Irish content creators relative to the Americans.

The USA dominates the anglosphere.
