Hackers in Belarus, breaking that countries train system, probably saved Kiev…

Please, enlighten me then, what did you mean by your initial comment?

Kid? I’m willing to bet I’m older than you.

1. I’m so glad they weren’t “kamikaze” dogs.
2. I very much expected that story to end with the dogs targeting Soviet tanks.

None of those companies are suggesting 20 years. They’re suggesting much less than 10, and selling investors on that promise.

Actually, we do already know that we’re close to a theoretical limit of increasing computing power as we currently know it. The transistor can’t really get that much smaller, before it stops working.

Also, if you’re talking about the article as linked, that is a mere introduction to a much longer paper.

Rich coming from someone who says we should, just, continue burning fossil fuels because it’s been hard to stop. If you want a serious discussion, offer serious solutions.

So what you’re saying is that it is indeed time to move on to eating the rich?

Thanks for the article, super interesting to see his predictions, they weren’t that far off.

And none of those can play x86 games? It’s a similar price to a Lenovo Legion Go, with similar hardware specs (apart from the second screen).

That wasn’t just larger subs. They changed the rules for requesting a takeover of a sub, and there are hundreds of subs it affected. There are even cases of it being really dangerous, there’s a shroom hunting sub that is poorly moderated and has had life-threatening advice left up.

I believe the place it was banned, was on consoles.

Come on, that’s literally just JPEG artefacting because it’s a meme and it’s been shared a bunch. There are so many fakes of this card out there, it’s not that far-fetched and it’s likely not a $10k+ card that was destroyed.

Yeah basically. But part of why no one has tried again is because the judge made it very clear he wasn’t going to just roll over and let them pull their BS. Including setting a bond of $600k for them to even try litigating it. Another part of it is that ISPs used to hand out IP addresses and PII in response to requests from media companies. This was found to be in breach of privacy laws and now those companies would have to apply for court orders, proving malfeasance, to get that information.

I mean yes, those numbers are fairly low because they’re designed to keep the sports sustainable in the Australian market.

Even if the cap were €100 million, that would still be a lot fairer than a free-for-all.

Potentially, but that doesn’t really matter, as you can match the signatures of the two versions and see that they are the same. You cannot fake that and have one version have different code, it’s not possible.

Scroll down and there’s a section about Australia on here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dallas_Buyers_Club

Basically, they fucked it up so bad in Aus no one’s ever tried again.

See then you have the whole thing in the US where the local TV market, including streaming services, won’t allow you to catch a game playing at a local stadium. It’s called a blackout, I guess to encourage you to go in person. Basically those services only make sense if you don’t follow a local team, or you watch a bunch of other games each week.

Reddit from 2009 called, it wants it’s “pretending to be helpful but actually contributing nothing to the conversation” grammar complaint comment back :)

As an Australian I genuinely find European football salaries obscene and a bit disgusting tbh. Over here both of our major codes of football, NRL (rugby) and AFL (aussie rules) have had salary caps since the late 80s. It’s not something implemented per player, but instead for the total roster of a club. The point is to make the competition fairer and well, more interesting, because you don’t have all the good players concentrated into a few super clubs. In 2022 it was $13.5m for AFL clubs and $10m for NRL clubs. As well, if you breach it you generally don’t get to earn points on the ladder until the following season. If you did it in the past, won a premiership and it’s discovered, the title will be stripped.
