I’m on ryzen 9 5900x, rtx 3080, 32 GB DDR4, with mobo and psu that’s ~€850 today and it will play most modern games on high settings 1080p at +100 fps. Computer hardware these days is a lot more like car hardware than it used to be. Generational improvements aren’t as big and the price for a used 5 year old unit is a ⅓ of a new one. Unless you absolutely need the latest and greatest go with a used last gen.

"If you don’t know what samurai wallet is then that title would be less informative.

No."

What do you “no”? It absolutely would be. A samurai wallet could be a physical wallet for cash, some hidden blade device, a toy, a regular non privacy centric crypto wallet. For example lets pretend there is this crypto wallet you haven’t heard of. Would a title like “Developer of Ninja Pocket goes to prison” be more or less informative to you?

"Replacing samurai with crypto can only mislead the reader into thinking that the issue was the crypto and not the privacy part.

No. "

Again, what do you mean “no”? “Developer of crypto wallet imprisoned” tells you nothing about why he was jailed and completely misses the whole point of the story - that he was imprisoned due to the privacy features of the wallet.

"It also doesn’t tell you anything about why he’s being imprisoned

Neither does the current title. But at least then we know it’s something to do with a crypto wallet instead of a “privacy tool”."

Like I said it’s implied. The title doesn’t need to tell you that it has something to do with a crypto wallet because that’s not the important part. The privacy preserving characteristics of it is what matters. His “crime” isn’t making a crypto wallet, it’s making it private.

At this point I think it’s pretty clear you’re just being disingenuous so I’ll bid you good day.

IDK how you came to that conclusion but ok.

If you don’t know what samurai wallet is then that title would be less informative. Replacing samurai with crypto can only mislead the reader into thinking that the issue was the crypto and not the privacy part. It also doesn’t tell you anything about why he’s being imprisoned, while with “He Built a Privacy Tool. Now He’s Going to Prison.” it’s implied why (because he built a privacy tool).

What details are being withheld? His name, the tool’s name, the crime, the sentence? What title would be more informative?

Samurai wallet dev sentenced to 5 years

Is that better? Only if you already know what samurai wallet is.

Keonne Rodriguez pleads guilty to conspiracy to run an unlicensed money transmission business?

Only if you know who Keonne Rodriguez is and that conspiracy to run an unlicensed money transmission business carries a prison sentence of up to 5 years.

A privacy tool dev sentenced to 5 years for a conspiracy to run an unlicensed money transmission business?

Is this any better? I don’t think so. It still doesn’t tell you anything about the actual case. You can’t condense an hour long video into a single sentence beyond the basic premise, and trying to do so risks glossing over important details and misinforming the viewer. Also, it’s not the titles job to give you details about the story, just a basic overview of what the story is about.

I wouldn’t say that not going with an overly descriptive title classifies a bait. You can always add more context but that’s what the actual article/video is for, a title is just a brief general description to catch the readers attention. Something like “Interview with Keonne Rodriguez, the founder of Samurai Wallet - a privacy focused bitcoin wallet who’s going to prison after being compelled to pleading guilty to running an unlicenced money transmitting business.” is very descriptive but doesn’t make a great title IMO. It’s like saying that “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” is a readbait because calling it “A Wizard Orphan and a Magic Rock” would give more context.

How is that clickbait, that’s exactly what happened?

Does this apply to linux, grapheneOS, f-droif, flathub, AUR, deb repo etc. or is it just for the corpo-net?

Government agency starts multiple, multi-year, billion dollar projects, delays ensue, costs overrun, results are unimpressive. It has to rely on private contractors or other countries for the most basic things, spends $211 billion for a space shuttle program that goes nowhere and ends up costing $0.5 billion per launch.

Private company goes from nothing to a successful rocket launch in 10 years for less than $1 billion, half of which is private funding. In the next 10 years makes rockets reusable, lowers the cost to orbit by 30x, launches a viable commercial service people are willing to pay for.

Communists on lemmy:

Capitalists on Lemmy: private company is better just because it’s private

Have a government run space agency, government constantly cuts funding. Awards contracts to incompetent military company to build over priced rocket. Crony capitalism and money disappears.

That government guy sure seems incompetent, I hope no one puts it in charge of a space company.

Private guy steals all NASA talent from budget cuts builds talented team, innovates new technologies for rockets

That private guy sure seems like he knows what he’s doing, I bet he’d be great at running a space company.

and then goes full blown Nazi and you love him even more.

IDK where that’s coming from, I never said that, you’re just making stuff up now.

have a government run space agency

a private company shows up

does everything better at a fraction of the cost and actually innovates

It’s not even theft, it’s piracy.

Only if you are going tor only. Im no expert but imo there is no better general purpose browser right now, both in terms of usability and privacy. Default firefox is a joke, librewolf is decent but it’s fingerprint protection relies on blending in which is difficult to achieve with it’s small userbase or if you have a lot of extensions and it’s identity separation is done manually through containers while brave uses randomization for fingerprinting, that doesn’t have this issue and it does site containerization between all tabs automatically. Ungoogled chromium is just brave without all the privacy benefits, mullvad browser is just tor browser without tor, which might be useful in some cases if you are using multiple browsers but I wouldn’t main it , and it has the same problems as librewolf. Opera is Chinese spyware, Vivaldi is whole ass operating system with a browser functionality, everything else is dead or not ready or not any better so yeah… I’ll be sticking with brave until something better comes along. If someone here knows a better alternative please let me know in the comment.

Imo they should have kept the ipv4 format but instead of maxing out at 255.255.255.255 make it 65535.65535.65535.65535 this aproach makes the address pool more than 4000000000 times larger and is backward compatible with ipv4 so it could be a drop in replacement for most things. And if we ever do end up running out of over quintilion (18446744073709551616) ips we can just keep going up, to 4294967295.4294967295.4294967295.4294967295.

All the shortening rules trip me up. I’d much rather work with addresses with standardized number of hextets and ideally the same number of digits than not have to type a few zeros.

all of these are the same address: 2041:0000:0001:0000:0000:0000:875B:131B 2041:0000:0001::875B:131B 2041:0:0001::875B:131B 2041:0000:1:0000:0000:0000:875B:131B 2041::0001:0000:0000:0000:875B:131B 2041::1:0000:0000:0000:875B:131B 2041::0001:0:0:0:875B:131B 2041:0:1::875B:131B 2041:0:1:0:0:0:875B:131B 2041:0000:1:0000:0000:0000:875B:131B 2041:0000:01:000:00:0:875B:131B 2041:00:1::0:875B:131B

They are reciprocal so should be the same as what other nations are charging the US. The formula for them is: tariff for X = X’s tariff on US, so no surprise here.
