EDIT: "With grub, the situation varies; if the device has a graphics card, it usually means that driver modules need to be placed in the boot as well.", "usually" carries a lot of weight here, none of the systems I had had this kind of a requirement.
Freedom is a finite resource in which copyleft licenses take from the developer to give to users. (which ends up at the same point as the article but I prefer wording it this way.)
Seems like launching a browser tab with:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
and navigating to duckduckgo.com: print(driver.current_url) # https://duckduckgo.com/
works.It's routinely discussed on HN, whenever a topic about Mozilla/browsers comes up. The real question in my opinion is what can we do about it? Start an awareness campaign? Stop using Firefox? Stop donating to Mozilla?
This only applies if you prefer to be trustless though. If you are willing shed a bit, you can trust Folding@Home's scoreboard data (and whoever supplies the data to you) to use it as a pseudo-"PoW" and run a proper proof algorithm beneath. (which is also done by a number of coins like Banano, Curecoin, Gridcoin. You can see their people on the leaderboard with weird names like x_ALL_x, x_GRC_x or just bunch of non-sensical alphanumeric characters.)
Interesting results nevertheless.
(Not that your comment is wrong but one could miss the mention of scientific computing while skimming.)
(Also BOINC and Gridcoin both are open source and needs some love from contributors. I'd like to drop their links for anyone who has free time.

Can you link to your format if it's public? I'm interested.
Still that's too much JS for my minimal/no-JS goals.
What makes it special for me is that it's simple, open source and does not track you. (and the lots of bugs hiding I suppose)
I've heard some people clone IMEIs from the old phone when getting a new phone from abroad and that it does reduce the cost significantly.
Cryptocurrencies are not "backdoored" like the banks as governments cannot order Bitcoin to hand over a specific person's money. While you can bug their keyboards or compromise their OSes etc., the best you can do is a $5 wrench attack if your target is not willing.
I assume you meant something like subprocess.run(['mkdir', '-p', '--', *path.split()]), which in that case using shlex.split will fix your problems with quoted strings.
> Because you have no right to kidnap someone else’s child. Humans also have a right to live. Parents with better opportunities(whether through a better lifestyle or through better medicine) will be able to grant a better life expectancy for the child than the biological parents. This means that while there's no defined right to "kidnap" someone's children, the non-existence does infringe on an existing right.
> Because the human rights of the parents to raise their child and the rights of the child to be raised by their parents both determine that you shouldn’t. Ditto.
> Because you have no authority to determine what is better for the child And who does exactly? The people bringing the child to this world without consent? The government? Hypothetical better parents? Once a child grows up to a sufficient age we assume that the person has gained enough sufficient mental capacity to decide for themselves(which is also debatable but let's leave that for another day). That line gets only more blurry the younger the child is and how do we know who exactly has this "authority" to determine this?
Modern family structure gave this authority to the biological parents due to the complexity of the question above but this is still a debatable point in my opinion. I heavily doubt that the status quo will be challenged in the near future.
> Because the ends don’t justify the means. I agree with this as taking children of people can cause significant distress for reasons I assume evolution related. And moving whether ends justify the means or not aside, no one has the authority know whether an outcome is the "better" outcome for a child or not so the ends are also blurry.
