Why the discord requirement? The info about a distributed, decentralized platform should be easily and publicly accessible. (Otherwise it's not any of those things.)

And you could use it on a dumb phone; in the early days it was all sms. The web version sucked, hence the length limitation of tweets (since removed).

Have you seen email? The data structure doesn't matter - control does.

The world needs a company that does this,

Not all data, obviously, but even the "cannot detect internet" is real, because we block that attempt. Why phone home to "detect internet"?

Many stores where I live do this already for meat, salads, deli stuff, and various perishable items by placing a discount sticker on the item.

I've not seen it on milk, perhaps due to the design of the container system that already discourages shoppers from looking at each container because you must push them back "up hill".

But cost no electricity or traffic light maintenance. And much more fuel efficient and faster. Win, win, win.

Exactly. Right to repair doesn't mean I have to do it. But I want to take it to the shop down the road - and I want them to have the tools and manuals without being legally or technically obstructed.

We don't have to live in a wasteful society, but it seems that everyone is ok with "ending is better than mending".

Cloud lock-in is the worst. But "cloud neutral" is also a waste of time if you only ever use one cloud. And for some things, you must rely on vendor specifics (virtual networking, etc). Cloud is no-win unless you go all in.

Guess the datacenter in Utah wasn't big enough?

Drill baby drill - for thermo power.

We have the tech, $6Bn can drill a lot of wells and relative infrastructure.

What is the scam?

Why wouldn't CIA / MI6 / etc want this information released (as they see fit)? Obviously they can't do it themselves so let a resourceless journalist release intel about parts of the world that helps them.

Assuming /. does not embrace Unicode (lots of work) I think the community could assist in some simple regular expressions to substitute common quote characters from iOS and other devices.

I'm happy to help if leadership is interested.

I can't get the latest Ubuntu to boot on non-UEFI hardware. This is for a kid's computer to keep an old, yet decent system out of the landfill.

Any suggestions for other distros?

So your point is we should an be exposed to more information and make our own decisions?

At least with OSS we can fix it ourselves, if we have ridiculous amounts of time or bounty it.

An even greater list of bugs happens in closed source, but no one sees it.
