Does it work for porn collections too?

I 100% agree. They need to be much harsher and will lead to a regime change soon. But not in Russia, but in Germany (AfD), UK (Farage) and France (LePen), as predicted by Emmanuell Todd. ;-)

Trump would be happy if the UK joins the US. With Canada. And Greenland. ;-)

"There's a big difference between having something explained to you and developing expertise in it."

No, there isn't. You get things explained in University. Then you build on top of this knowledge.

"Not everything moved. Cloudflare is a US company, I still use it, and I’m at peace with that."

I am not. THe cancer of the Internet. Sometimes Cloudflare does not work abroad. It is annoying.

"Here’s the reasoning: Cloudflare sits in front of my public-facing websites. Its job is to cache, protect against DDoS attacks,"

If your host has no protection against DDoS then find a better host.

You can find very cheap CDN, if you really need them. Likely you dont.

As a word of caution, Cloudflare can have a devastating effect on SEO if you are not a paying customer and serve your stuff from your own URL. Cloudflare allows this only for paid accounts.

I found the computer in the article more interesting than the fact, that gaming is getting faster under Linux.

Interesting, but I wish it was half the size folded...

No shit. And an Open OS. It works great.

26 USD: https://pine64.com/product/pinecil-smart-mini-portable-solde...

It runs IronOS - Open Source Flexible Firmware for Soldering Hardware

I hated it too because I had a shitty soldering iron. Could have used a ironing iron instead, so shitty was it.

Use this, stop complaining: https://www.cnx-software.com/2022/07/29/pinecil-v2-soldering...

Pinecil RISC-V soldering iron with the Pinecil V2 featuring a new Bouffalo Lab BL706 RISC-V microcontroller with Bluetooth LE connectivity, optimizations for higher power levels, as well as tentative support for the new USB PD EPR standard (Extended Power Range) working at up to 28V.

A buddy sent me the link. Looks interesting, I am going to check it out. I am not aware it was on HN before. Maybe some people here have an opinion about it.

Most people don't know, that "prediction markets" are acutally based on an idea by DARPA in 2002, after 9/11/2001.

Why the downvote?

You can fly to the EU for 600 USD (retour), more in high season. Non business people are willing to spend 1200, 1400 USD. I assume around 2000 USD the demand will fall off significantly. At 5000 USD for economy it will be close to zero.

Inkscape is great but I wish Xara Xtreme for Linux had not died.

I use mc as a file manager. I have no idea what you are talking about.

After a terrible, possibly criminal experience with a hoster, I ended up with: https://www.interserver.net/

I am very happy. The speed is insane. I always thought and was told that WP is the reason for a slow website. No, it was my host. I pay around 10 USD per month but I think the smaller plans starts lower.

For what it's worth, I am very happy with them. But I only host a few WP and FreshRSS. I think they support python too but for Django I use: https://www.pythonanywhere.com/ I pay 5 USD a month there but I think this plan is not sold anymore.

Directus seems an unorthodox idea for a website. Is this a marketing post?

Emacs is an outstanding, extremely powerful piece of software. It just lacks a decent editor.

Bullshit

Somebody using this name claimed my site if fraudulent. Now, please show your ignorance regarding trademarks and ask how he could use the name if I have an old trademark....

"Dog fighting is not a serious concern in modern fighter combat"

We heard this before and it was a disaster.

"And stealth doesn't just "fail"."

Nothing is invisible. It depends on your frequency that you use for detection and other technologies. You will find out if your are "invisible" for an able opponent (speak, China, Russia, not Iran) in battle. But then it may be too late.

Read the Sci Fi story "Superiority", formerly required reading at MIT engineering courses.

Well, I don't understand why he did not complain to ICANN? This would be the second step after customer support failed. Last step is a lawsuit. GoDaddy is opening itself up there to liability big time.

[Assuming that the poster gives true statements, but I have no reason do doubt this]

Trademarks mean Bullshit. Facebook closed a site of mine besides having a registered and valid (US) trademark that precedes everything.

"If we’re being clear-eyed about it, America has, historically, been brutal to many of its citizens. For some, that treatment is far more recent and unfamiliar, inspiring the desire to find happiness, safety, and security elsewhere. And while it’s tempting to believe this sense of urgency can be wholly blamed on Donald Trump, he was, in reality, an accelerant to a necrotic system.

When the middle class began to crack in the years following the 2007 economic collapse, the old American instinct to migrate in search of opportunity shifted. If leaving was something Americans did domestically, the horizon shifted further afield."

No plane is invisible. It is totally unclear if Russian or Chinese technology can detect them. I mean, there is one way to find out....

This being said, should the "invisibility" fail, it becomes a plane that can't dog fight, cant fly very high, can't fly very fast, can't carry a lot of load, needs an insane amount of maintenance (10h per 1h flight) and is expensive. Big bet!
