And the reasoning? As always Terrorists, pedophile, criminals, etc. Guess what: If those guys have not learned yet to make a big detour around official chat apps, they deserve getting caught. My bet is, those people already have their own secured means of communication. Maybe they have their own encrypted app, or they have a forum somewhere in the Darknet, whatever. But the chance that this new law will catch anything worthwhile is practically nil.
You don’t have them yet?
GNU Image Manipulation Program (or Project)
Not only on Jerboa. Basically all titles are affected, and it is not only the ampersand which is an issue.
Especially when history has shown that Microsoft had and has issues with security basically everywhere.
Let’s come back to all of this when all those “quantum breakthroughs” manage to compute anything worthwhile that is not a quantum computer benchmark, but solves a real world problem.
But that would miss out the large amount of government control over the masses! Think of the kids, not of your rights being trampled on! /s
Counter-Argument: Each camera in a bedroom can be free entertainment for millions!
Good luck holding a company sitting in China “responsible” for about anything.
Well, at least there are people who still use Perl.
I remember being forced to learn this in university.
I started CS from the POV of someone with several commercial projects under the belt and at the time being fluent already in five or six different programming languages. But the university where I started had had an issue - they had been way to theoretical (imagine people writing their CS thesis on a mechanical typewriter, and professors telling us that one does not need computer access for mastering CS!). So they had been more or less forced to include at least a bit of real world stuff into their blackboard and paper world. Which resulted in a no-excuse-mandatory beginners course in Turbo Pascal in the first year and Turbo Prolog in the second.
And I was not alone. It was painful. They showed a programming task to be done on the overhead projector, and about 90% of us could have just typed down the answer without thinking and be done with the weekly assignment in five minutes. Nope. Instead, we had to follow (and join) a lengthy, boring, and worthless discussion about the very basics of programming, before we were allowed to work on it. And woe to us if we did not follow the precise path that we had been “taught” in that lesson, even if it was done in a way that no normal programmer would ever implement it.
If they had given us all the assignments for the semester in one go, we would probably had finished them in one afternoon, including documentation and time to spare.
At least with Turbo Prolog we learned something new. First and foremost that there are strong reasons that nobody uses Prolog for serious programming.
You could at the same time ask: “Why are motherboards no longer made for 486DX?”. The answer is simple: Time and technology moves on, and USB-A is old.
Can’t we just abolish this Nikki Haley instead? Whoever she thinks she is.
As it said in the document: With a little help from your OS. So I want to log into lemm.ee from another persons computer. I do have not my own keyboard, I neither have my additional drivers or extensions or whatever. Oops. No login.
Very interesting technique to get the widths of the glyphs uniform without them looking ugly in most cases. OK, one can make it look bad if you know the “pain points” of the system, but in normal flowing texts, the fonts do look good.
The sane choice would be to leave.
Then it is high time to change this. It won’t get any better - it will get worse.
Well, your decision to finally leave that hellhole is overdue then.
FTFY: EVs aren’t working to rise profits and bonuses.
With RAM access being the one big bottleneck of a modern PC, can anyone in the know tell me about those SoCs? How much RAM did they have, and was it faster than external DIMMs?
