Maybe Einstein-Rosen bridge? I'm not an expert though.

I read somewhere that Zuck hates this. Given that, it's probably better than the alternative: having to hand over your personal information to each website or app that claims to have a need for age verification.

Due to worldwide legislative trends, waiting for it all to pass and not implementing any kind of age verification is not really feasible. Hope is not a strategy, but of course this tech also isn't a substitute for advocacy.

Pretty sure the (visual) porn I like doesn't look anything like that horny Duracell bunny's fever dream we can make out through the description you so graciously provided. Also pretty sure that "perverted men" will look like choir boys next to an actually perverted woman, there's a few text samples floating around that I think are basically unhinged. But I don't think there's anything to judge, the point is that both of these types of media are home to an entire spectrum of wholesome and less wholesome depictions of adult relations.

It's okay to say they are wholly incomparable, then don't actually compare them! Or say the opposite, that they are basically the same, and then there's also no unequality between the genders. It's just that when you start to pick and choose, and say that one is worse than the other, your position becomes founded on hypocrisy.

You seem to have settled on an opinion and accompanying emotional response already. If so, why are you still using Python if your prior experience isn't a good fit for it? Not everything is made for everybody, maybe Python just isn't for you.

Your complaints mostly revolve around syntax. I'm sure there's a dynamically typed, sequential language with curly braces — y'know, "standard" — out there for you. You could even convince a Scheme reader to accept something like that instead of brackets everywhere 🤷

So, like a vortigaunt?

Maybe some folks at Valve pondered that same question, the N64 was a lot more recent back then too.

It's been ten years since the release of Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.

SpoilerThis was a plot point in that game, as well as its prequel, Ground Zeroes.

I think installing spyware on someone's device is two or three steps more drastic a measure than a simple search, which is about the extent of what a court order can authorize police to do right now. It feels conceptually close to tampering with evidence present at a (possible) crime scene. To add to this, spyware is not the same thing as installing a physical listening device in someone's home. It requires far-reaching permissions on a system, and can influence lots of other software on the same system. You'd have to have an extreme level of confidence that this won't lead to accidental or intentional planting of incriminating material. And, in my opinion that sort of load-bearing trust is not really something law enforcement has earned in the general case.

Maybe there's something I'm not getting, but doesn't the second setup preclude basically anyone from stomping anyone? If stomping others is one's goal, it'd be through picking a class and then picking on any other class that's weak to one's own, no?

I feel like as an argument, this isn't really saying a lot. There's an idea that markets, including the information economy that a stock market hinges on, are efficient, and thus, inaccurate pricing pretty much cannot exist. But if you remember that this is just a convenient oversimplification, you realize that stock markets haven't ever once reflected reality from, like, the day they were invented.

The article is also a bit lazy in arguing that an AWS outage should be bad news for AWS. To the contrary, this outage serves as a powerful reminder how commonly used, depended on, and entrenched AWS has become — traditionally, outages tend to raise stock prices of companies suffering technical failures. It's more curious that in this case, no significant change either way seems to have happened.

Where in Settings would this be? Cellular?

I like this. The very best horse archer is probably a centaur, but they'd be exceedingly rare. You can match good archers with good horses at scale, which probably makes up for the coordination disadvantage in any situation outside of single combat between champions of nation states.

Or, uh, that's what I heard.
