> how big of a deal Terminator 2 was and how big movie releases can be. Like, nothing in the MCU era or the Star Wars prequels and sequels comes remotely close
I'm in that age range and I lived through T2 and Endgame and I'll have to disagree.
T2 is one of my favorite movies of all time but experiencing the Endgame premiere, as a hardcore fan, with the other hardcore fans, was something else, it had the whole teather howling during the climax.
I also get that T2 is "easier" to enjoy in the sense that you need to watch like 22 movies to really get into Endgame.
> three letter guys would extract your key with a wrench.
Are people still using this to justify no encryption? that comic sure did a lot of damage.
Mr. Nobody should be able to decide how much they want to protect themselves. If it's unstable maybe Mr Nobody is fine with it.
Raising the cost of achieving this to enterprise budgets, just because, seems suspect. Specially when there are so many attempts to undermine secure computing by the powers that be. [1] [2]
> There are many much cheaper ways to force you to give up your keys.
Yes, but that requires the Mr Nobody knowing you have access to them, which in itself is a big deal.
But let's think about it, why would they torture Mr Nobody by wrench? News stations would like to hear that, or do you think they will make Mr Nobody disappear too? Would they take those risks for a Mr Nobody?
Maybe the most realistic scenario is that people sometimes can hold onto their passwords. Scumbag or not. [3]
> I guess that would drive housing prices down a little because so much of the population would be living with their parents until they save up enough for a down payment, which might not occur in their lifetime
you mentioned supply and demand, if everyone is struggling to buy houses, downpayments wouldn't just go down a little.
in the end, everyone needs housing, every single house would be occupied just as now, but instead of having renters being squeezed by supply and demand you would have owners.
how is that a worse scenario?
let developers have rent, they are the risk takers, they deserve it.
I agree that using cookies is better for web sessions but I absolutely despise those using the boogeyman to shoo people away from stuff they don't like, instead of asking them to use their brains.
> they are not secure.
They are secure if they fit your risk profile, a blanket statement like this is just disinformation.
Did you miss the sarcasm or has GTA6 become some sort of anomalous memetic agent that makes anyone who tries to work on it not be able to finish it regardless if it's human or AI?
So your argument is "if you give a mouse a cookie"? There are plenty of companies and they just throw us a deb and we do the rest.
And even if it were a valid point, why would eye even waste a second of your life argumenting against Linux when it's being asked to a company with a projected 1 trillion dollars IPO.
maybe the old tools are prevailing for a good reason.
I prefer people to email me because half of the time they figure out their problems while writing them.
it's not an absolute rule but people who don't do their homework gravitate towards calls and messaging because they just don't prepare their questions.
asynchronous communication puts the burden on the sender, where it belongs.
Well he is, but I cannot forget being completely blown away by the lack of, I don't even know what to call it.
On a moment of worldwide shortage, this move didn't move masks to the US that were shelved in forgotten warehouses, they raised the price and left medical workers from poorer countries exposed.
I mean during ww2 civilians and supply chains were bombed to hell and back.
now this is a "small", "far away" war, so killing civilians isn't expected, but for them a supplier of agricultural products is feeding the soldiers that will be stomping their heads if this keeps escalating.
I'm not justifying anyone here, I'm just pointing out how ridiculous it sounds when we try to define a set of rules to kill each other and then say they are violating them, when we know that the good guys bombed whole cities to the ground, and will bomb whole cities to the ground, when it matters.
there's so much hate in the region that this stuff will only end one way, and I personally don't want to see Iran winning this, but let's call war by it's name.
my tinfoil hat theory is that they make small features depend on new hardware.
for example, let's say the new os depends on m5's exclusive thumbnail generator accelerator, and let's say it improves speed by a 20%.
now, your M1 notebook than on previous OSes uses standard gpu acceleration for thumbnails will not have this specialized hardware acceleration, it will have software fallback that will be 90% slower.
you won't notice it a first thought because it's stuff, fast, but it eats a bit of the processor.
multiply this by 1000 features and you have a slow machine.
I don't know how else to explain how an ipad pro cannot even scroll a menu without stuttering, it's insane how fast these things were on release
