I'm a bit confused about the whole DNS thing.

Namely when I buy a domain name from who exactly am I buying it from?

Put in other words, what's the best way to buy a domain name and avoid the middleman fees?

In terms of renewal, does it make a difference if you buy it from the root TLD authority (not sure if saying something silly here) or some squatter/middle-man/domain-park?

Who decides on the price hike for the next year?

I find the whole DNS management quite broken. The new TLDs is a good example. .dev got owned by Google and a bunch of other TLDs got acquired by some VC backed digital-estate company.

Do you still have the previous versions of the site?

I did like the places/travel pages.

I feel saddened by this this. But at the same time I see Japan in a very complicated situation with China expanding its maritime influence in the region.

If it doesn't flex its military muscle (needing the secracy for it) it may find itself in a vulnerable situation against China. Although on the other hand it really doesn't stand a chance against China's nuclear arsenal.

If China used a nuclear warhead would the US riposte in the same manner?

What I don't get is the "Japan to battle in the middle east". Is this a "you scratch my back and I scratch yours"? Or just a cover for not saying "we're preparing for an eventual conflict with China"?

How does Dwolla differ from Stripe?

Did you notice any differences depending on the carbs? White rice, brown rice, sweet potatoes.

And what about accompanying seasoning? Olive oil, coconut oil, fatty meat/fish.

I agree with all of the above but I think you missed another important aspect about money.

Engineers in SV are paid bucket loads of money.

They can afford to take one year of to travel the world or just work on their own projects.

For me that is key.

How many people do you know in Europe that can do that?

Another thing is in Europe the biggest tech hub is in London. And if you're in London you have to wonder

Why am I dealing with this crappy weather when I can move to somewhere where I'm paid 2-3x more and it's summer all year?

I know someone who falls along these exact lines and has moved to SV. Although he was already working remotely to a US company.

And that is how you make pro-warfare propaganda as to justify military incursions and any collateral damage.

The End.

Could anyone comment on the Linux kernel's limitations that makes containers insecure as compared to BSD jails or Solaris/IllumOS zones?

Is there anything on Linux roadmap that will change this?

Whatsapp (facebook) is not the only the only company keen on censoring.

Airbnb chat also censors messages. Typically when you try to give your number or whatsapp or some link.

That is 2h. Could someone tl,dr please?

> I tried running various Linux on my MacBook, but discovered everything I hate about managing Linux on a server platform is in fact amplified in a desktop context.

I'm curious on what problems does Linux brings that FreeBSD doesn't.

My main gripe with GNU/Linux distros is the whole package handling. Software stack complexity and the stable vs. new conundrum.

I also experienced the same thing.

Could someone explains the tech aspect of this?

If noscript is enabled then how is code being executed? HTML and CSS tricks?

This looks useful.

I'm just wondering if it's possible to install Linux on any of these and everything works out of the box.

It would be nice if the specific CPU model number was listed. It just says "Intel Core i7". I'm wondering if these netbook CPUs support any virtualization features. Although with that limited storage you can't do much.

I would really love to see a linux-laptop version of this site. With information on supported devices.
