Freenet is also based on middle-out compression.

No. Trying to push 30TB into Freenet will be interpreted as an attack on the network by other peers and they'll disconnect from your peer.

Freenet is better viewed as a communication medium than a storage medium. Data is prioritized according to demand, somewhat like an LRU cache. You can't upload 30TB and expect the network to preserve it for you.

On liability, running a Freenet peer is more like running network infrastructure that automatically routes and caches other people's traffic than intentionally publishing it. US law explicitly recognizes this distinction in the DMCA's provisions for transitory network communications and system caching. We discuss this in more detail in the FAQ.

You obviously haven't tried Freenet. You can join our room on River and you'll see no spam, no fraud, no hate speech, none of that.

Decentralized doesn't mean unmoderated. Systems built on Freenet can be moderated however their creators and communities want. River is moderated.

The difference is that nobody running one service gets to decide what everyone else is allowed to run.

Thanks for your questions, Freenet caches data but it isn’t meant to be a long-term storage network. It’s better to think of it as a communication system. Data persists as long as at least one node remains subscribed to it. If nobody subscribes (including the author), it will eventually disappear from the network. So yes, if only your node subscribes then the data will only exist there and won’t be available when your machine is offline. But if other nodes subscribe it will be replicated automatically and remain available even if your node goes offline.

Don't forget that design follows production, especially for mass produced goods. When both happen in close proximity, communication is better and iteration times for design samples and production updates are shorter.

As a result, the production process is typically more optimized and more often takes advantage of the latest advances in production. This can get you better or cheaper products, depending on what market the you're aiming at.

More and more US companies have moved their design studios, or parts of them, from the US to China. And Chinese companies can play the IP game as well as American ones.

It was because the US had presented no evidence of their claim that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction. France was the only country willing to call them out on it. Many US Americans completely flipped out and called them cowards and surrender monkeys.

At my workplace, there's still an ashtray installed next to each urinal. Time for a renovation.

At a high enough population density, car centric infrastructure breaks down and everything gets congested. However, the throughput of bike lanes is six times as high as that of car lanes for a given width / area. One of the best best ways to get rid of congested roads is to move at least part of the traffic to the more space efficient bicycling.

Why do you need pilot training and qualifications that are fundamentally different from existing tiltrotor planes like the Osprey?

I'm sure he is thinking along the lines of Antifa or Black Panthers and not along the lines of the KKK or border guards shooting refugees. /s

They can reinvest the money the made with the Trump NFTs.

Because they can clear the crossing much faster if they don't come to a full stop. Idaho introduced this regulation and bicyclists there can treat red lights as a stop sign as well. According to a study from 2019, the rate of injury among cyclists has dropped by 14% after the Idaho Stop regulation was introduced.
