Wouldn't it be better to allow the end user to turn on ASCII mode for email addresses and URLs. Any non-ASCII domains would either give a warning or show unicode codes, rather than the browser just trying to guess if it's a potential spoof?

He's going to have to be careful. Moscow doesn't support people who are no longer any use to them.

Police said they did apply for s8 & s9 but court decided they only need s8. Apparently judge says they can hold on to property.

1986 🤔 I presume us were in US military or Defence or working on super computer or early TCP/IP research? Even the world wide web wasn't invented then.

US army cadets start from age 12. Kids get guns much younger and taught to practice with them. Not the same as sending them to war, but easy to find pics of kids with guns in the US.

I'm no fan of Elon at all, he's a dick. This launch seems like a stock pump/save. However, it clearly detected an object and re-opened softly. Same as elevator & subway doors etc (in fact gentler than those) Complain about the other crap, but this? Thought vid was going to see kid pinned by his neck

I didn't dismiss it, just reposted a comment. But you said "Average person", median is an accepted measure of average person. If you are using different stats or definition of average then please post the link to the stats and your definition of "average person". The original post does seem made up.

Yeah they did, when wildfire smoke crossed the border. Carney had a meltdown and charged the US a blanket 90% tariff. Don't you recall?

Or just give the cash directly to the food bank rather than giving the Supermarket the profit? The food bank could then buy whatever is actually needed. Very inefficient, from an economic point of view, to buy something extra to donate.

I can see why there's fear, it's understandable. No, not the fear of asylum seekers in the house, fear from yobs smashing their way into random houses in the town. That's pretty frightening for everyone around.

Slow down a bit, we don't want to be suing or criminalising hacking. Hacking has to be malicious to be criminalised and harm has to be done to sue. Whatever the thoughts about anthropic a lot of security researchers could get caught up in a "prosecute all" for hacking campaign.
