So he deserves to have his money taken by a government agent?

How about we don’t victim blame people, and instead decry unconstitutional seizure of assets.

And then they learn how to game the benchmarks.

You just can’t win.

Why is it one or the other? IMO, laws against facial recognition would start a national dialogue on data collection.

You have to start somewhere, so it’s better to start with this and then expand, versus trying to pass sweeping legislation, etc.

Proton is improving but a lot of games still don't work or have random issues.

And for linux, forget any game that uses BattleEye for anti-cheat detection.

Err, what? Just host your own blog. Problem solved.

Except with google it’s becoming impossible to find links from several years ago. Unless I remember exactly the right keywords and maybe the website name...

How is this FOMO? The entire point of bookmarks is “maybe I’ll come back later to this”. Bookmarks let you save content that you come across that may not be relevant at this time, but could be useful later. There is no penalty for saving pages because space is virtually unlimited, and we can only collect so many bookmarks anyway. Searching through bookmarks isn’t a difficult task, and it’s way better than relying on google.

It’s not built in, but Drone has support for Gitea. I just host my own drone instance with runners in addition to Gitea.

What do you use now? Warp?

Actix was not at all "shit". People just took some issues with a few usages of unsafe and how the author responded to issues/PRs. I've been using actix for about a year now, and was excited for the 0.2.0 updates.

That said, pulling the code entirely and deleting issues was a rather immature response.

As a rust user I just don't know what another good alternative is. Warp, maybe? I'm debating about just writing http stuff in Golang due to its robust standard library instead of picking among several fledgling 3rd party http libraries.

Blaming 86k people for the actions of a few is toxic.

1. Why is this one or the other? Can't we have efficient cars that also don't track us?

2. How, in 2020, do people still not understand how serious location data is? In the USA, and likely anywhere that has cars + little public transportation (like rural areas), your car basically displays your life. Where you live, work, eat, meet people, attend events, etc. How long until law enforcement asks for all people who drove near a protest/rally? Or advertisers get that data and start targeting you based on where you drove? Why should a freaking car company (who is 100% guaranteed going to sell your data) have access to your entire location profile? The thought of this alone is frustrating and maddening because of how easily we hand out our data. People have no idea how powerful bulk collection of user data is.

I don't think anyone was arguing that. We obviously have to cover distances that are not practical for walking, so public transportation goes hand in hand with a walkable city.

That is still a tremendous improvement over having to drive everywhere. The quality of life is so much better, it's almost indescribable.

As someone who grew up in the States, I never really understood this either, until I lived in Korea and visited Japan.

There, residential zoning is mixed with business zoning. There is no such thing as a "suburb", because you have apartments nestled right next to grocery stores, cafes, and restaurants. I don't think I ever had to walk more than 2-5 minutes to get to a convenience store. Cars still existed of course, but so many people walked, rode bikes, or took public transit. (It helps that both countries have extremely good public transit systems).

Once I realized how nice life could be, I started hating suburbs. I hate having to drive 10-20+ minutes just to get food or groceries because the only thing around you is a vast sea of houses. I hate that public transit is basically nonexistent, or if it does exist, it's slow and not on time. I hate having to drive, which is both unsafe and prohibits me from studying or getting work done, because I have to pay attention to the road.

Centering around a suburb model is one of the US's greatest structural failures.

My 70 kb/s connection disagrees. I was barely able to get slack to load, when it did load.
