If the death penalty deterred anyone, there only would have been a single death penalty ever (or only one for every sort of crime).

Even if you have perfect provenance over every component you put in, the moment it leaves your factory to be shipped to customers, it can be tampered with.

Even if you would hand it from the factory straight to a customer that comes physically to your factory to pick it up, then you would still require some sort of ID to know that that person is in fact the customer I suppose. Which removes some of the advantages of cryptocurrencies

I don't think it's a hostility to tech but different values that value consumer rights more than it values 'move fast and break things'. We have good things here and we don't like someone breaking them.

Problem is that we thought the US was 'cool', with US movies, music, digital services, cooler than our own and thus we helped give the US the lead. The US has lost it's coolness though, now we just think it's creepy.

> but I would perhaps point out the US Strategic Petroleum Reserve chart[1] which is at its lowest level since 1982.

Might be the case, but that doesn't refute the argument? Maybe an empty reserve is even better for the (US) oil corps, financially.

OpenCode fixed it for me, I just asked it to set up itself as an ACP server for Jetbrains Air. Running with that now.

Hadn't used ACP yet.

I want to like this, but not being able to plug this into eg. OpenRouter or a local agent is a bummer.

You mean he has his own private supply of poop that is involuntarily tapped into at any random moment?

So widespread? Doesn't look like vandalism to me

Depends on how it's done I think: breaking stuff vs sitting on it. And sitting on a highway is also quite visibly claiming the action, that is not clear in this case.

If this is XR, would be very dumb and against their message.

More akin to the German verb 'reden' I think: talk. It's a talk from the throne.

If Microsoft is operating the software outside your house without your involvement and it still burns your house down, no EULA is going to absolve them.

That we don;'t understand it is not an excuse, it's all the more reason to not let these things roam freely, with this amount of potential to do damage.

Good!

My electricity contract in the Netherlands here is on a "Dynamisch tarief", with the most direct translation being "Dynamic tariff". It means I pay/get a different price for my power every 15 minutes.

"Tarief" just means price of mainly a service.

I think 'dynamic rate' is the proper translation for the US?
