Doesn't work for me either right now. Google apps is also failing to resolve it.


Wonder why some are working. I am searching DDG with “site:.space”


They (admins) recently started a couple of new German language subreddits, that were 1-to-1 translations of existing successful subreddits, like r/showerthoughts and r/explainlikeimfive. They very clearly created fake accounts that then posted badly translated copies of existing posts from those originals onto the new subreddits. Then after that they sent unsolicited private messages to users subscribed to certain organic German language subreddits (like r/de) inviting people to those new subreddits.

The r/de subreddit is still in blackout, so I can't really provide a working source right now, but once that ends, you can check it out here: https://reddit.com/r/de/comments/13orxh0/milde_interessant_r...



Let's say we go with your dystopian wishes and round them all up and ship them off to some other place - with all the problems that then causes just ignored.

Someone now loses their home after that - let's say to a fire and they didn't have it insured for that because the house insurance market is either dysfunctional or close to it in some parts of the US. You now have 1 homeless person again. Do you also ship them off again?

Do you just forever keep shipping off the unlucky and downtrodden people to some other place?

What if they lost their house, but have insurance paying soon, the insurance company is just dragging their feet for a few months. They will be fine, they will be able to pay for a new house or rebuilding. But until then they might be without housing. Ship them off anyways?


Let’s be real, the world view informing this sort of carceral idea typically only has one solution, and usually it’s a “final” sort of one.

The goal is not to get rid of the homeless in the city, it’s to “get rid of them.” And -consciously or unconsciously- at its core, the goal is to have a group of weak people who are easy to oppress.

The rhetoric hasn’t basically changed in 90 years. It’s disgusting and frankly I’m shocked to see this sort of talk on HN.

Perhaps Reddit was running interference for us…


They've had those things as the country of Scotland under the UK, so I'd assume you could argue that they qualify with that.


How? There is a well established separate court system in Scotland so I think that part would be fine. But pretty much every other part of government would have to be built from scratch. A foreign office, a home office, immigration, passport office, etc. etc. etc.

Most of these are institutions are based physically in rUK so it’s not like they can be “split”


Sure, they'd have to build up new offices and staff them with people. But they have a parliament and they have elections, right?


This is also a simplification.

If the vaccines are creating sterilizing immunity, this might be true. For example the measles vaccine does that.

But for all current SARS-CoV-2 vaccines we have we don't get sterilizing immunity.

So it can still make sense to get vaccinated even if society at large is vaccinated.


What is sterilizing immunity?


It's when you get immune to getting infected by a virus - antibodies neutralize the virus particles before they can do any harm or meaningfully replicate. All current (and probably future) SARS-CoV-2 vaccines don't do this. Through a combination of several vaccinations and infections the hope is that you get close to sterilizing immunity.


To be fair the public stress test beta already showed some problems that needed to be fixed and people started working on it back then.

But the point still stands, for big titles you don't have to wait long for Proton support nowadays.


I think that's the issue though: You're seeing "Linux users" that only use Linux on their servers because they are somewhat forced to do so.

I would actually expect that almost all of those people use Windows or MacOS for their local development.


And those hosts often are not using up to date packages and don't even have up to date security fixes at times.

I recently moved a wordpress site I was working on from a local dev setup onto a live bluehost server and was immediately hit with a bunch of out of date package warnings. As the customer was using some cheap shared hosting service, there wasn't much I could really do about it.


Shared hoster here. More likely the app arbitrarily decided 'these versions of PHP are EOL', where the reality is that they're being maintained by a number of OS vendors.

Too many customers run really old versions of code that need older versions of PHP and so on. We can't not provide them without losing the business. We do of course, make newer versions available.

The other fun one we periodically get is customers doing PCI scans or similar and getting warnings for out of date versions of OpenSSL, Apache, etc. Nope; just backporting showing the old version numbers.


That's sort of funny, as one of the remaining few value pitches for something like Bluehost (versus a $5/month vps) is "somebody else does apt-get update && apt-get upgrade for you".


Keep in mind that WP has a vast installation base, so your local sample is not necessarily representative. I only know WP admins that a fairly comfortable with Linux and use it on a daily basis.


edit: In fact from what I can tell, this is all about day 1 of the hearing. Day 2 is today.

According to several other sources [1][2] it seems to me like "2" was correct and the title of the article is wrong. Or are they talking about different things when they refer to this day number?

[1] from another comment here in this threrad https://twitter.com/kgosztola/status/1302888230115737600 day 1 yesterday and day 2 today: https://twitter.com/kgosztola/status/1303251577344413696

My guess is that he's numbering sequentially from the hearings earlier in the year, e.g. https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2020/02/your-man-in-...


That benchmark seems a little bit problematic to me. When I click the benchmark button with matrix size 101 and iterations 5 the resulting score for GPU varies between 12k, 20k, 60k and Infinity.


When talking about computation being a power drain, one could imagine a scenario where certain computations that can deal with the latency of starlink internet could be offloaded by default to the cloud. When a network failure is detected or results take too long to come in, the on-board computer could still take over the same computations, resulting in more power drain for a short moment.
