Try harder :) and read the ‘pessimists’ part, too.

Imagine a time when you need it (for example, your old language isn’t spoken anymore where you live)

MNByChoice is right.

Read the server’s logfile for better info.

About 15 years ago there was a saying that optimists are learning Russian now.

Pessimists Chinese.

I don’t know any user benefit. FB is the plague.

In your scenario I think the user gets what other Us users get, because they use fingerprinting, this means they check more than just the IP.

I wonder how they determine what needs to be moderated under which country’s rules.

'They aren’t no garage startup anymore. They can afford enough lawyers in all countries to find it out.

So the Musk guy needs fresh money?

6 years old and running perfectly fine.

I have 5 WD RED disks in a RAIDZ1 config. In the first year I was experimenting with the sleep or spindown options. Then I have read that drives live longer if they run constantly. Now they are spinning 24/7.

The additional SSD has broken and been replaced 2x during these years.

further americanise the discussion

We need more dissent in general, and of course it should be respectful, whereever possible.

(i did not mean to say that our existing dissent should become more respectful)

I never said I was against the goal

From the parts of your lengthy texts that I understood, I got the strong impression that you are against (and not much else than “against”)

nobody liked Zuck’s post

LMAO!

Mods don’t communicate with common earthlings.

Great answer! 😃

Did he also wear pants?

How do you insert/eject the discs from a webui?

My guess: NSA, Google, Apple, then some data selling jerks.

every company working on making self-driving cars has a strong incentive to constantly claim that results are “just around the corner”

That’s not what the German carmakers do.

We are laughing at American companies who do such bigmouth claims all the time, and call them liars, and worse.
