Yep, I'm also afraid of taking airplanes because a handful of them have crashed. But per TWh produced, nuclear is statistically the safest method... just like that it's statistically safer to fly across the country than to drive there, but I'm too scared for that :/

TL;DR: only ~10% of police are confirmed assailants of domestic abuse!

A VPN won't really do anything against CSS/IMSI catchers.

kungen ,

CSS wouldn't be used to spy on your network traffic; if they wanted your internet data, they'd have much simpler methods to collect it than CSS (and they wouldn't be able to decode most of that data anyways in normal cases).

or who I am accessing it from

What do you mean by that?

Suggesting that a VPN could mitigate stuff relating to CSS is like wearing a floating vest 24/7 when flying in a Boeing plane: you might feel a bit safer with it on, but it'd probably be smarter to have a parachute instead.

I also like the privacy extensions, but how often does your prefix even change? Most places I've seen you get a /64 announced and it basically never changes -- so somewhat elementary to "break through" that regardless.

It was almost funnier when I initially thought that "morde" would be "murder" (like in Germanic languages)

I don't really understand, how can the bus be so much worse? I assume it's on the same lanes as the cars? Is it that busses are forced to drive significantly slower than cars, or are you including the time to+from the bus station perhaps?

When you gotta hang out with people (who most likely do/sell other drugs), no risk that you're going to get an offer to try something else.

Where did I say otherwise? If you're able to go to a normal licenced shop and buy it, of course the example I gave wouldn't happen.

But the partition is Microsoft's own, basically no one has ever touched it themselves. So why can't they do some housecleaning to make enough space? At the very least, they could fix the error messages to be more descriptive on how to fix it.

The tin-foil in me says it's just a tactic to get people to switch to Windows 11. "Oh, I have errors with my updates? I should really try upgrading and see if that fixes it, I don't want any hackers to steal my megabytes..."

kungen ,

Why should wire fraud give such a harsh punishment?

kungen ,

Perpetual growth/engagement statistics?

In many places its illegal to not accept cash.

Where? I can't think of many places where that'd be true.

"the United States ought to be in a relationship with Russia aligned against China to the extent that we can"

Sad to say I agree with the broken clock, as China is truly a bigger long-term threat... but never to the extent of appeasement or allowing Russia to invade other countries.
