Remember the different fates of "hitchBOT" in Canada, Europe and the US? Kind of tells you what to expect if something unarmed is set free in those regions.
Well, with 2.7E+9 Euro revenue per year online retailer "Otto" is certainly much smaller than Amazon, might be because they actually pay taxes, higher wages, and do not facilitate fraud and trafficking through some shady "marketplace" as successfully as Amazon does.
as residents of Mexico currently face sentencing based on evidence collected from their use of the FlexiSpy mobile app. And that is even if their travel to the US is involuntary, as Mr. Guzmán told us.
The authors formulation suggests that he thinks Amazon's dash was just "making it easy" for people to buy stuff. The same could be said about the noble gambling industry, which also only makes it as easy as possible for people to give away their money. And yet, regulations regarding such "offers" exist in most parts of the world.
I wonder if systemd people responded to those bugs like they do with some other exploitive hacks I've seen with "system works as designed, ticket closed":P
This time they used the other of their two standard responses to bug reports: Assigning blame to others - the authors of "alloca()" in this case - as a lame excuse.
... at your friend's home after they returned with a full SD card?
I mean, the technology is great, but it should come with some mandatory training on how to delete all the crappy shots that no one wants to watch anyway;-)
... to produce more tasty meat. Oh, sorry, I did forget that feeding natural food to living beings is kind of a no-go in the US. But seriously, you should at least once taste local specialties like the "Tiroler Milchkalb" in Austria, those are calves actually fed with cow milk, and you can taste the difference.
I guess it is only a matter of time by when having yourself equipped with a remote controlled brain-implant becomes a mandatory requirement for use of Facebook... use of the Internet... having a social score above zero... being allowed to do any business... being allowed to lived. And extrapolating from the current development of public opinion, those implants will be hailed as the only one true solution to fight child pornography and terrorism.
The article might be badly written such that it is easy to misunderstand it as announcing the closure of all coal mining - which certainly does not happen at this point.
But "bullshit" could be attributed to some of your statements, namely: "Coal is the only energy source that Germany has on its own soil." - No, Germany has so much (non-fossil) energy sources available that it has been a net exporter of (electric) energy consistently for the last years. And the statement "there are no uranium mines" is true only if you add "active", as there is plenty of Uranium still available from the mines in the Erzgebirge, those mines are just not active because they would be unprofitable to run at this point.
And why do you consider it non-sense to go from a situation where many coal mines survive only by throwing tax money at them to a situation where fewer coal mines exist that are profitable?
By that logic, do you also propose invest tax money to spawn lots of new plants in other industries that are currently profitable?
it's not like China is out to burn your home, rape your wife, kill your dog. They're on a different hemisphere for chrissake, there's noting to gain for them from indaving another, regardless of whether that's Europe or US. (FWIW, the only country that has a habit of doing that post-WW2, regularly, is the US.)
While I agree with your statement that the US has a nasty habit of invading foreign countries, China did a similar thing to Tibet "post-WW2".
Also, Russia shares the US habit of invading foreign countries, as demonstrated for example in Afghanistan and the Ukraine.
So, the basic lesson is: Don't trust any equipment that was manufactured or shipped through one of these aggressive nations.
It will also be cheap compared to the cost of the third party cloud providers once they steeply increased their prices after having the client hooked and vendor-locked-in - with all those fancy proprietary APIs they offer, which will be too costly to migrate software off by then.
I don't think any corporation has a deficit of knowing how they could "stay good", if only they wanted to. But corporations want to maximize profits, and "staying good" is believed to be an obstacle to that.
Sure, assigning a 3-digit number is so much cheaper than providing actual health care for mental disorders or addressing actual causes for suicides (like tasking people to go somewhere and kill people for no good reason).
Maybe this service can even be financed by harvesting the organs of those who called, thus revealed their location, and then leave a corpse that is fresh enough to leave some parts intact. Such efficiency!
run "web"-services that relied on Microsoft-proprietary extensions that were built only to make it impossible for non-Windows-browsers to be compatible?
It's hilarious when it is Microsoft who complains about the strategy they have been using for decades to suppress healthy competition.
Google can go to hell, but Microsoft should lead the way.
If the "E" for the "E-cars" comes from coal/oil/gas power-plants, then nothing is won in terms of "avoiding to poison the environment". But maybe their engineers already figured out how to "tweak" the power-plant software to make it appear "clean" only on the seldom occasion when some inspector visits the plant to check its emissions.

She should not complain now that her wish was granted, and Big Data business is being made with her data.
I mean, giving your neighbor your newspaper after you read it is a criminal offense that should get you imprisoned for life, right?

Even if you only read Slashdot, you would only need to look back 2 days for this example.
For a more comprehensive list of EU research projects you would have to look at their web site.
But sure, the EU has failed miserably to accomplish such useful and productive things like starting wars in foreign countries.
And yet they still import more electricity from Germany than vice versa.
Look at the scary list of natural pesticides found in cabbage - among them both carcinogenic and mutagenic substances.

BTW: The web version of Microsoft "Teams" runs fine with Chrome on Linux, but only if the "UserAgent" is faked to indicate a Windows-based browser. Exactly the same evil strategy, used as of today, by Microsoft.
