Still, Slashdot doesn't have to play along with their weasel wording. For example, "ergonomic collars that deliver an electric pulse" - just say "shock collar". Don't help them whitewash what they're talking about.

Lets be honest, if there were anything worth stealing in Germany, the British would already have done it.

Jokes aside again, criminals, even wanted criminals are by still protected by law. The law doesn't stop applying to people when they break it. The definition of an "outlaw" is someone who is expressly denied the protection of the law, so by definition an outlaw can't be wanted (hence the old trope about the wild west outlaw being wanted dead or alive is completely wrong), in effect an outlaw can't seek the protection of the law for crimes committed against them meaning another person can rob or murder them without consequence.

How is this any different to the FBI's most wanted list?

Clue By Four: it isn't.

Or the US seeking Osama Bin Laden, all criminals they have/had little chance of getting so they release the info in the hopes of someone coming forward with info leading to a capture. It also limits where they can travel to as it's a public notice that they're wanted.

This is the exact opposite of a doxxing.

Artemis II is breaking Apollo 13's record by about 4100 miles. The primary reason they're going further is because they're passing much farther from the moon, about 4000 miles, compared to 158 miles for Apollo 13. The moon is also a little further from Earth, accounting for the other 250 miles.

Jokes aside, I think the point is this isn't really a doxxing. Doxxing is an unauthorised release of personal information (usually with the intent to cause harm), this is really the opposite as it's a state releasing the name of a wanted criminal.

... will really love cow tracking. As the basis for a new Climate Commitment Act tax applicable to cows for burping methane.

But eventually, we can eliminate cattle. And return the prairies to their original inhabitants. The buffalo. Who will commence grazing and burping methane.

Good luck. The starter in my Rivian is broken.

Agreed. I live in the mountain west, and our forest and mountain landscapes are just covered with fencing, even though most of it is public land, because it's BLM "multi-use" land -- a lot of cattle graze on it. Fences are expensive to build and expensive to maintain. If you think a fence is something you build once and then ignore, you've never dealt with cattle.

Cowboys (and sheep herders) have a term "ride fence" as in "Bob, you're gonna ride fence today", and it's a regular and tedious task that means "get on your horse (or ATV) and ride past miles and miles of fenceline, looking for places where the fence is broken or going to break, and fixing them". It's necessary and expensive drudgery and having all of those fencelines is bad for other uses, and bad for wildlife. I've put down a few deer that jumped a barbed wire fence and didn't quite clear it, slicing their guts open and leaving them in agony as they slowly die.

In addition, there's an obvious tension between the cost of building and maintaining fences and the cost of rounding up cattle when it's time to move them. Obviously if you slice the land up into lots of small fenced areas, the cattle will be easy to find -- but they're also going to graze it out fast, so you're going to have to move them more often. If you use very large enclosures (common on BLM land), then your cows may have hundreds of square miles to roam and feed... but when it's time to move them you have to find them. Luckily they're herd animals so when you find a few you've found them all, but still. And occasionally, singles get separated from the herd and you just lose them, which isn't great since a cow is worth about $2k.

So... if we can replace those miles of expensive and constantly-breaking fences with virtual fences, that's good news for everyone. Wildlife and outdoorsmen can roam unimpeded, cattle can be far more tightly controlled, strays quickly identified, located and reunited with the herd -- via remote control!. This is an innovative idea that is worth quite a lot.

Could it be that some people just want to get work done and not get stuck in interminable video conferences?

"Whoops! My network connection just went down." (Holding Ethernet plug in hand.)

You can't grab the source and build it for a newer architecture?

Socialism has an answer for that. We should switch now.

Does it actually bog down a reasonably-speced computer? I don't think it does, I think the sluggishness is just from the sheer volume of stuff that has to be downloaded, and the inefficient way it's downloaded. And the reason the web devs don't notice the awfulness is (a) their browsers have 98% of it cached and (b) they have a GigE (or 10 GigE) connection to the server. They certainly don't have computers faster than your M4.

I think you didn't understand what this feature is. It's pretty much the opposite of annoying, and it has no effect at all on bandwidth consumption. Though I suppose when devs get used to their sites seeming to load faster they'll bloat them up even more...

... get the same effect by walking through a homeless camp* and inhaling deeply.

*Transit buses are an option as well.
