I'm considering it. I'd probably want to know if it works well with Linux first.

That could have been done by just having a single entry called GoogleBot or BingBot, not an entire sentence explaining their product offering let alone hundreds of times a minute.

They're saying who they are, what they do, and are linking to their website and sometimes sends hundreds of requests in a minute. It might not say "For only €49.99 you can get your very own thing!”, but that does not mean they aren't throwing their name up in every website owner's arse whether they like it or not.

They're spamming all web logs too with an advertisement for their services in the user agent. I decided to ban them from all my websites because the logs took up too much space.

Luckily you can change it on Lemmy

Primordial black hole as they're called. They're still a theory at this point but I find it very plausible. And how cool would it be to have a primordial black hole in the neighbourhood? Even the name is cool.

Code is already copyrighted by default, so no need for software patents. Luckily software patents are null and void in EU, so I don't have to worry about that.

Coincidentally last month I got the survey for the first time since I switched to Linux a decade ago.

I've got a 128GB Kingston DTSE9G2 and it has served me very well for close to a decade. Shit's built like a tank and has sustained a lot of abuse being packed in my pocket with all the keys. Even survived a bike accident where I landed on the pocket (the pain was intolerable though...)

The problem is that with dumb drivers you can easily place blame at the driver and make him pay for his idiocracy. FSD is a lot more complicated. You can't really blame the driver since he wasn't driving the car but neither did the engineer or the company itself. We'd have to draw up entirely new frameworks in order to define and place criminal neglect if one should exist. Is the company responsible for a malicious developer? Is the company responsible for a driver ignoring a set guideline and sits impaired behind the emergency stop? Is the driver responsible for a software fault?

All of these questions and many more needs to be answered. Some probably can't and must remain a so-called "act of God" with no blame to place. And people is not fond of blaming just the software, they're out for blood when an accident happens and software don't bleed. Of course the above questions might be the easiest to answer but the point still stands.

Meanwhile in Denmark: FULL STEAM AHEAD! Next stop on the digitalisation train, all of your identification papers!

Or do. It's not like people care if he breathes.
