Make it mandatory to institute a 5 year trial phase, during which encryption is broken only for politicians and public servants

That’s one of the major restrictions for casual use, yes. But if these measures are actually implemented, it might be worth it to have a second phone (or some other device) just for online banking

I’m curious, does EFT work on Linux now? I had a workaround with a windows VM years ago, but the anti-cheat decided that was evil one day and wouldn’t let me play anymore
- Comment on Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows 2 weeks ago:
No, that was my setup for some time. KVM with PCI-e passthrough to pass the entire GPU to a windows VM. Worked great, until EAC started banning me for using a VM.

But those don’t work right on modern windows, either

Mature applications as in tried-and-tested software that will not produce wrong results, right? Right??
- Comment on hmm breakfast 2 weeks ago:
Depends on when you start work. If I get to work at 8, it’s tough to get to lunch at 12 without a breakfast. If I get up an hour later, it’s fine

Zippo sucks. If you don’t wear it on your body, it will be too cold and won’t work. And if you leave it lying around for some time, the gas will evaporate and it’ll be empty when you want to use it

Yes, that’s exactly why many universities have classes like ‘maths for electrical engineering’

The only complaints I’ve ever heard about 60fps are from gamers who prefer higher refresh rates. Does anyone advocate for framerates to be lower than 60??

Seems fun, but is this case really gonna sit somewhere you actually see it? That seems awfully noisy when you add a few hard drives.
- Comment on Indoor lettuce growing in 3D printed pots 2 months ago:
I’ll have to check lettuce prices next time I’m at the grocery store, but there’s no way I’m paying $5 for a head of lettuce. And for reference, those 60W running 24/7 would be close to 12€ in electricity per month for me. Growing with artificial light seems like something worth doing for e.g. super spicy chilis or cannabis (if you’re into either), but I never would’ve thought of lettuce.
- Comment on Make it make sense 2 months ago:
I’m genuinely curious: are there adverse effects to an arrangement where the right lane is used by large trucks going 90-100 kph, middle lanes used for normal traffic going 120-130 kph and the left lane kept open for faster traffic? As far as I understand, these issues arise when cars go back and forth between lanes all the time, or when cars go slower than the ones behind them without an open lane to overtake them. If you pick a lane and stay in it, you might cause the second issue
- Comment on Indoor lettuce growing in 3D printed pots 2 months ago:
Not to hate on your hobby, but why would you grow lettuce using artificial light? Doesn’t seem very economical given that lettuce is typically not very expensive
- Comment on Make it make sense 2 months ago:
“Pick a lane and stay in it” leads to slow drivers blocking the left lane, no?
