However, I forgot to add, for OpenBSD, it may not make that much of a difference - they've never been particularly fast, especially on SMP machines, so perhaps the impact on OpenBSD is disproportionately lower and therefore acceptable? Someone should measure this.
Measure? Measure?!!?! MEASURE???!?! Are you fucking nuts? Why would anyone want to actually measure this when we can have a 2,752-message thread based purely on random anecdotes and opinions arguing over whether there's a difference or not.

There are many animals in this world in that if you give them an unlimited supply of food, they will keep on eating until they die; often in very short order.
We humans aren't much different,
That was my reaction as well. For USAians, there's a British expression "slap on the wrist with a wet bus ticket". This fine is a fine example of this.
Available stats show a nearly exponential rate of increase in usage.
So after the first user when the RFCs were published there were two the next day, four the next, eight the next, and at the end of the month the entire world was on IPv6? Wow, I didn't know. Thank you for enlightening me.
Given that the rest of your claims are presumably just as accurate as this one, I'm going to file them under the "complete bullshit" category.
This is half the reason why it's now the twenty-year anniversary of IPv6 failing to launch. IPv6 has now been around for longer than IPv4 (counted as the time between RFC 791 and RFC 188x) and it's still perpetually "the other protocol", the novelty thing that you use from time to time for a lark until you go back to the one that works. It's the Duke Nukem Whenever of network protocols.
The other half is that we've been told the IPv4 sky is falling so many times now that the response to any new claims are "oh god, is it that time of the year again?". For the vast majority of users, there's simply no incentive to switch, no matter how many times someone tries to scare them into it.
"Lab grown are not special, they're not real, they're not unique.
they're not controlled by the cartel, dammit dammit dammit! Don't buy someone else's glittery carbon, buy ours at a thousand times the price! Our carbon is better! Buy de Beers!
And remember, a diamond is forever. Whatever you do don't ever sell it, because then we're fucked.
What they didn't share was the full details of the recording. Here's the unedited transcript:
Echo woke up due to a word in background conversation sounding like "Alexa."
mixed in with rhythmic meat-slapping-on-meat sounds and moaning.
Then, the subsequent conversation was heard as a "send message" request.
Well, it wasn't really a conversation, just more meat sounds and grunting, although if you're really imaginative you can possibly turn some of them into "send message".
At which point, Alexa said out loud "To whom?" At which point, the background conversation was interpreted as a name in the customers contact list.
Mom.
Alexa then asked out loud, "Mom, right?" Alexa then interpreted background conversation as "right."
Technical what was said was "Oh yes, right, give it to me", but we'll give you that one.
Followed by more meat-slapping sounds and "Was that all?".
I've been using Draytek gear for years now, its pricey but also pretty decent. Every time I see one of these sky-is-falling router warnings I have to wonder, is the fact that Draytek never feature in them because they're that good, or because no-one bothers checking Drayteks?
$1.2B is pretty massive out of a $800B - $1T market.
$1.2B is pretty massive in actual, real money. If someone steals $1.2B in household appliances, or oil, or gold, or Apple shares, or whatever, that's a serious amount. This is $1.2B in imaginary currency. They may as well be complaining about 1.2 billion Zorkmids, or Flanian Pobble beads, or Ankh-Morpork dollars, or Silver Stags being stolen.
Also the Prop65corollary warning: "California contains stupid propositions known to cause legal problems for anyone not sticking up a Prop.65 warning sign".
Palm routers are technically meant for one-handed use, but I definitely wouldn't run a full-size one with one hand. I'm also not convinced a palm router is that useful unless you're hand-carrying a bag of tools around and the weight is an issue. In addition, as you say, they'd be much more risky than a full-size one, you'd want to at least wear good-quality cut-resistant gloves in your free hand. Not sure how those would fare against a router blade, but the performance against standard blades is pretty impressive, and they could turn any contact at all, resulting in a nasty flesh wound, into maybe a bad bruise.
In terms of the hands-off safety feature, I don't know how well that would work in practice, you'd have to couple it with a load sensor so it'd only stop the motor if the router was actually cutting and you removed your hands, otherwise it'd cut out every time you took a hand away to scratch your nose or adjusted the workpiece or whatever.
The headline is actually reversed. Algorithms aren't biased, or racist, or whatever, they take all the input data they can get, crunch the numbers, and produce a result based on the data. The goal in this case is to take unbiased algorithms and, if they produce a result that SJWs object to, bias them to produce a result more in line with what the SJWs want to see. So the idea is to make the algorithms biased, not unbiased.
It's a bit of a personal-taste thing, but I rather like my Bosch 1617EV. I've also heard good things about the Porter-Cable 690LR. Neither have ever been hacked, to the best of my knowledge.
Problem is that half the videos on Youtube then become inaccessible because, just in case some snowflake might get offended by a comedian making a joke with a naughty word in it, they restrict them to logged-in users only. About the only thing you can safely watch en masse without being logged in is cat videos, World's Funniest Decapitation Accidents, and 10,000,000 videos of millenials whining about something.
Since Chrome is doing it, Chromefox will of course slavishly copy it. While Google will eventually realise that people need this like they need a hole in the head and back out the change, Mozilla will keep it in there.

Serenity doesn't pay the bills.
It does if you're Joss Whedon.

Especially American humans.
The study shows how weak security architectures, the scarcity of skilled personnel
an oversupply of Nigerian princes wanting help in transferring money,
and a lack of awareness and strict regulations have increased vulnerability
The purpose of the study was to learn how these Africans become so enormous
Two words for the scientists: "Chicken Licken".

The Bob's Retirement Survey 2018: Do you think the following are true?
If you answered yes to all of those, you've passed the retirement test.

The disadvantage with xml is that it creates a lot of overhead
They're already using Java, obviously they're not concerned about overhead.
Always carry cash, and two different types of credit cards. I have a visa, mastercard and $200 cash on me, plus bank cards
I always carry a Smith and Wesson. With one of those, I find I can get as much cash, credit cards, and jewellery and watches as I want.

it lost few points for performance (which, AV-Test measures on the basis of how a security suite slows applications and websites on the test computer)
given that the scale for the metric "Fucks up your computer's performance" is rated from 1 to McAfee.

Since music producers are being absolutely killed by home taping, you wonder why Sony would pay 2 billion dollars to take one one?
As long as we teach them that science can be overruled by a voice vote in Congress, and the laws of mathematics by the Australian legislature.
It's also a pretty meh achievement. I've transferred memory between computers multiple times without getting a slashdot writeup about it each time.
