Why is the nose necessary? Standard wojak and a flag would have been fine.

Can't or won't?

Seriously, though, I wouldn't be surprised, if a bunch of suicides or "retractions" are happening soon.

How about 2 million if you shut up? No? How about we publish this dirt on you? Would be a shame, if some nameless robber orphans your children.

16 years ago was 2008 (which is shocking in itself, I'm old), SSL was seen as very very optional until 2013, when Snowden dropped his CIA/NSA leaks.

I wouldn't be surprised, is the security is "trust me, bro".

Even doubling the salary is far less than what you'd pay in the US, and as a rule of thumb, German labour, including all the indirect costs, is about twice the gross salary.

Compared to Valley workers, Germans are still cheap. 100k is a very very good salary over here.

See, again, nitpicky details, even though we both know exactly what was meant.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry that I didn't use the exact wording that the semantic overlord required for his incantations.

Let's recap, you only read the title, which by definition does not contain all the information, you wrote an extremely arrogant and absolutely not helpful comment, if challenged you answer with even more arrogance, and your only defense is nitpicky semantics, which even if taken at face value, do not change the value of your comment at all.

You are not helping anyone. No, not even others.

The closest one is about a trip over the Atlantic away.

It's absolutely opaque to me, especially the non-big-name brands barely get any reliable reviews and especially given the silicon lottery, I can't tell if every chip is like the reviewed ones.

If I just happen to get the bad module that craps out after 6 months, the positive reviews are not that helpful.

Honestly, that is the typical self-righteous stackoverflow response that is helping no one.

You know exactly what I mean, you know exactly how to treat the question, but you chose to play captain obvious of the second arrogance division and posted this.

Of course devices will fail at some point, what are you even trying to add here?

It's extremely complicated and I don't really see a solution.

You'd need gigantic resources and trust in those resources to vet accounts, comments, instances. Or very in depth verification processes, which in turn would limit privacy.

What I actually found interesting was bluesky's invite system. Each user got a limited number of invite links and if a certain amount of your invitees were banned, you'd be banned/flagged to. That creates a web of trust, but of course also makes anonymous accounts impossible.

Maybe that happens if you design a car like an iPod with a bunch of engineers living in California and Texas.
