You are right; lets start a linux kernel in rust. Send me a PR for that bootloader.

Counterstrike represent! I'd love to see popularity breakdown of applications run by wine. What else do people use it for?

Genuine question: does it make sense to go even more paranoid with self hosting?

1. buy a box at home

2. run on onion: https://medium.com/axon-technologies/hosting-anonymous-websi...

3. access media using onion browser

I believe electricity cost of hosting at home would be expensive and accessibility will be a problem 2000 miles away without cdn. One might have to consider having this box on a separate network.

So anonymity here might not be worth the price?

Or almost like a white man hiring another white man?

If my fellow Indians are fostering this sort of hatred even after coming to US then we definitely haven't changed (and also, I am not shocked like others here).

I am pretty sure it was social engineering. One can't seriously think only Modi logs into his twitter. I mean look at his instagram page; the guy is self obsessed and has team of midwits working in his IT cell.

Thumbs up! Most video transmissions happen using protocols written over udp.

Yes there is! And that's the mindset people should change.

SEA airport is 30 mins by taxi, PDX is 45 mins away by taxi and for airport check-in you gotta arrive 1 hr early and then 30 mins travel time.

A high speed transit is just 1.5 hr train ride (city center to city center).

Exactly so coming back to my original question: my cannot US invest in high speed train from 4th and King to Napa valley? What is holding it back?

Can you share some article to back up your facts? All I could find here is, american freight trains are longer and run over a longer distance.

: https://www.freightwaves.com/news/railroad/us-and-european-f....

After living next to train tracks in SF (for 7 yrs) and in PDX for (over 2 yrs) I can tell you that train tracks traffic is not even 10% of Euro cities like Stuttgart, Rotterdam let alone Berlin or Paris.

If traffic(freight+passenger)US is roughly equal to traffic(freight+passenger)EU then, the tracks should be equally busy no?

SF-LA

SF-Sacramento

SF-Tahoe

SF-Napa

SEA-PDX

Austin-Dallas-Houston

LA-Las Vegas-Phoenix-Tucson

And I am not talking snail Amtrak 70 mph train. I am suggesting 150 mph that runs in most Europe. What is holding US back in public transport?

Well I didn’t mean any disrespect to other nationalities but merely commenting on popularity of those two startups. Is there anything you want to add about my query?
