Definitely had the TS-1000 growing up in 80s. I remember looking at the window display of some electronics store where all these watches and Nintendo Game & Watch games where all lined up.

I was in Japan a few years back and I bought two F-91Ws, they look so small compared to today's watches. Too bad they're so flimsy, I wore one for a week but must have bumped it against something and broke the glass (at least it's glass). The other one is still in the original packaging, I'll probably leave it there. Nowadays I wear my G-SHOCK as a daily driver.

From another comment here somewhere I understand that it is the content provider who is paying the tax, not the receiver.

> Removing international students will also have big flow on negative effects for the rest of the economy.

It will. Because guess what, these students are working jobs (mostly in hospitality) no one else wants to work. Businesses no longer able to find staff.

I agree. The solution isn't cutting overseas students. The solution is to build more houses. To build more houses get more construction workers (who can coincidentally also build houses for themselves).

He told 'm to move to .si domains.

> whether they would have ever affected any actual real world case or been noticed or not.

That's what I was thinking as well. Wouldn't the majority of the bugs not also have existed in Postgres 18? The version that everyone is using atm...

There is a similar thing with AI detecting vulnerabilities. It's not that the vulnerability isn't real, but just that in most cases for these vulnerabilities to exist there also needs to be a very specific set of circumstances as well making the likelihood of the vulnerability to exist in the wild quite low.

Same here. I must have done a "Don't recommend channel" on enough crap over the years that the algorithm must have learned not to show this stuff to me.

Where is your own hardware located? A data center? Or maybe your place of residence? What if that location is compromised? Does that mean that physical ownership of the hardware is also not self hosted?

This reminds me of the early 1980s when synthesizer music became popular. People back then were saying things along the lines of "anyone can make music now, you just press a button and you have a no. 1 hit". But the reality is that, just having a synthesizer doesn't make you musician but a synthesizer in the hands of a musician can make a big difference.

Long time Linode user here. I have been running the same $5 VM for over a decade now with them, maybe even 15 years, would have to check... I used to host Wordpress websites on it but now it only runs my own RSS reader (running background jobs to ingest the feeds).

Can I ask what such a prompt looks like? Is it more along the lines of "implement all the features of Photoshop" or a detailed list of all the features that should be implemented?

Anyone can make a website and publish it but for some reason when it comes to apps there needs to be a store with a review process. Aren't apps, in a way, not just specialised browsers (not talking about webview apps here) that run in a sandbox? Why the need for all this "reviewing", does it make apps safer or better quality? Is it a device ecosystem permission / security problem? I.e. why do apps need stores and websites don't?
