  • So enlighten me.

    How many people do you need to kill in self defence, in an average week?

  • Too many posers

  • What is it with Americans that they seem so be so afraid all the time. You see danger everywhere. Life now is safer than it has ever been in the history of humanity.

  • It has nothing to do with circumstances, it’s plain statistics. Look up the numbers.

  • Nice theory, but owning a gun makes you less safe, not more. You are way more likely to be hurt by your own gun than successfully using it to defend yourself.

  • the right to bear arms exists to protect people from tyrants

    And yet, it’s the would-be tyrants who are armed to the teeth.

  • Exactly. They should take everything, he should only be allowed to keep one pair of clothes, but that’s for our benefit so we wouldn’t have to look at his ugly naked ass. When he’s living on the street, eating from the trash, and someone hands him some change, that should be taken away from him immediately. He should not be allowed to own a single cent until his entire debt is paid off.

  • no really how do we fix this?

  • So, someone could make a new search engine with a different algorithm. If it becomes successful though, it's only a matter of time before it becomes targeted and manipulated.

    I can think of a solution to this. Once your new search engine is starting to get targeted, you find out who is offering these SEO services. Then you hire a gang of thugs to beat the living shit out of them.

  • Encryption is supposed to come when the working group has aligned.

    I wouldn’t hold my breath.

    The whole RCS thing is a Bad Idea™ . It’s a standard by the GSM Association, which consists of over 1150 members (750 operators and 400 other companies). Getting all these companies to align will take forever.

    To illustrate: the RCS initiative was started in 2007 and the steering committee was formed in early 2008. The first version of the Universal Profile, that would enable interoperability between different operators and networks was released in 2016. It took 8 f-ing years to come up with an interoperable messaging standard to replace SMS. It was intended to be implemented by operators, but since hardly any operator did Google had to run their own service, bypassing the network operators, just to get it off the ground. Operators are now slowly beginning to support it.

    If Apple decides to add a feature to iMessage, they implement the feature, roll out an update to their servers and release it to a billion users in the next iOS update. If they want to add a feature to RCS, they first have to discuss it in the committee until they agree on a solution, this alone takes forever. Then every player needs to update their software to add support. This means potentially 750 operators who need to update their shit, and that is after their software suppliers add support for it. In the mean time, the new feature will work for some users when they communicate with some other users, depending on which phone and operator each party has. Rinse and repeat for every new feature you want to add.

    This means RCS will at best only ever be a very basic messaging service. It’ll be an improvement over SMS and MMS, but that’s not saying much. It will be in no way a threat to Apple’s dominance in messaging.

  • Apple refused to pay bounty to Kaspersky for uncovering vulnerability in 'Operation Triangulation' - 9to5Mac

  • Exactly. These sanctions take some time to be felt. Russia is also very selective in what economic numbers it publishes. They are also artificially keeping up the exchange rate of the ruble.

    These are all things that you can only keep doing for so long and it makes the crash afterwards even worse. Basically: they can pretend everything is all-right in the short term, but they have to screw themselves over in the long term to do so.

  • Hello, PC gaming here: Are the consoles OK?

    Jump

  • But nowadays it seems like they're just as expensive, still not as good for specs and the games are just as bug-riddled as PC games half the time.

    No they aren’t ‘as expensive’, LTT did a video a while back where they tried to build a PC that could beat a PS5 for a similar price. They had to buy used parts to match the price and the PC did not include a controller ($69). If you’re going to use used parts, then also compare it to the price of a used PS5.

    And Sony has been releasing all their big hits on PC anyway so yeah really no reason for me to get a PS5 that I can see.

    Sure, if you want to play old-ass games, get a PC.
