Here in Sweden we have chipped cards, with PIN it takes less than 15 seconds and if the terminal supports contact less it takes even less, especially if the amount is below 200 SEK (roughly 19 EUR) you don't have to enter your PIN on contact-less. I have not used cash in years here, because card is so much easier and faster than cash.
Yep we have those in Sweden as well. Contactless VISA can be done without entering PIN if the amout is at or below 200 SEK (~19€). At some places it even takes sub-second to use contactless.
Without the extreme penalty that there is now with the software solution but they will loose that slight performance benefit that they got over say AMD by cheating with the MMU check. For a context switch heavy application you pay around 30% penalty if the benchmarks are anything to go by, with a new architecture I'm sure that the penalty is below 0.01%
Which is why you have https://moltengl.com/ that let's you create your game in Vulkan (which works on Windows, Linux and Android) while still having it work with Metal automatically.
I think that you are reading way too much into that post. Proposing something to be blessed as an external dependency is how you do when you work with Gnome, so this is just him proposing this, not forcing any one. And the main dependency (i.e the very one that made people fear that Gnome would not work on BSD anymore) was done earlier than this and not by any push from Poettering at all.
And no these dependencies are not hardwired for systemd, it's still only a dependency on D-BUS namespaces and the major one is the logind one which BSD created their own version of.
And regarding "It is an extreme chore for an individual to maintain a systemd-based installation without systemd", well you choose to do it this way. You reap what you sow. Or have you ever tried to change the init in say FreeBSD to SysV? Try that one for kicks if you think that your non-systemd on a systemd-distribution was too easy.
Pain in the ass to debug? I actually find the journal to be far more easier to use for debugging a system than the old sysv+syslog where you often would miss lots of logs (due to sysv not logging stdout and stderr without tricks by the daemon/init-script developers).
The dependencies of systemd that where "created overnight" (which of course they wheren't, but ok) where done due to systemd providing infrastructure that these other projects (like gnome) deemed useful. And they are not hard-coded either since what they require is just the D-BUS namespace of the particular systemd service that they utilize which is how i.e the BSDs still can use gnome even thought it have a "hard-coded dependency on systemd".
Exactly how is it difficult to switch components when they are separate binaries? It's not like systemd magically forces you to write "systemd-xx" when you want to excute tool "xx" instead.
Depends, the EU have laws to protect EU citizens data from being sent overseas, but it's probable that the US can get an agreement to get data on US citizens that is stored in the EU.
And then an international agreement with that country cannot be made and US courts cannot require a US company to hand over data stored in said country.
While they might be the important words, they are from two completely different contexts and thus does not imply a "systematic coercion" just because those two words happen to be in the same sentence.
You can still tech and ideas and still implement then differently and/or badly. Uber might even have stolen the tech from Waymo before Waymo implemented what ever features they have that would have avoided this particular collision.
Imagine the shit storm that would ensue if some one would be able to win the prize and he could not deliver, that would have been you woo peddlers wet dream. For some strange reason this never happened though. But of course you keep on complaining of how things might turn out if only.

I think you really should stay away from the alt-right fake news mills, they have obviously taken their toll on you.

I've even heard stories that in countries where they have police there still exists crime!
Trying to eat the cake and have it too are we?
It can be fixed with a new architecture but not with a new microcode (microcode can only change so much).
So you are simply relying on the hope that other stores will not follow. Well if parent is stupid then you are naive.

Haven't you guys moved over to BSD or Devuan yet?
Not discovered kernel modules yet or are you simply trolling?
WSL is not Linux on Windows. It's GNU/Windows, nothing more.

"You can steal tech" was what I meant

Ah I see, so you are a politician. Good to know.
You have some special kind of disability that makes you skip over 8 words in each sentence you read?
So you wouldn't even collect the 1MUSD in order to feed some starving kids or give some medication to dying people?
