China is already trying quite hard with its Great Firewall. We don’t need to make their job easier for them.

Crack enough eggs, and you won’t have any left for the omelette.
Wrong battery. You’re thinking the high-voltage EV battery, but in this case, it was the 12V lead-acid accessory battery that died. Normally, that would be charged from the high voltage battery, if the car was running.
In this case, it might just have been bad luck with a worn-out battery.
The toddler was strapped into the seat at the time, so chances are that they would not be able to find and open the door that way anyhow.
The internet archive plans to appeal the ruling, so the fight is hardly over at this juncture.
Would be interesting to see where it goes.
Highly unlikely. Minecraft has a lot of quirky code, and the mods would have been built around that code.
For all intents and purposes, the clones are a different game entirely, and unless the mod author specifically goes out of their way to make their mod compatible with the clones, or a different version for it, they won’t work.
Without knowing how, not really. If it’s a massive multi-device botnet, like Mirai, for example, that’s millions of indvidual devices across millions of addresses, so it isn’t so simple as just blocking a domain. Trying to block all of them might well just block legitimate users.
Request limits also wouldn’t work if it’s millions of devices making a few requests at once, and an overall limit would have a similar locking-out effect as blocking everything. Especially if the DDoS is taking up most/all of that limit.
From the sounds of it, they did, since they were able to recover the data from elsewhere.
They just lost the data they kept and stored with Google.
Backups all tied to the same Google account that got mistakenly terminated, and automation did the rest?
It didn’t matter that they might have had backups on different services, since it was all centralised through Google, it was all blown away simultaneously.
Higher cycle life might also make it good for hybrids, since they cycle their batteries a fair bit.
Even before that, considering the music division put copy-protection rootkits on CDs that often broke computers.

Also a little bit with it being advertised as “not an app”, when it turns out to be an app, and doesn’t have any special magic that makes it need that dedicated hardware.
It’s out for a while, but people find it to be not as good as the first game.
Because I was only aware of Intel (and Apple) doing it on computers, whereas most major flagship mobile devices have those accelerators now.
GPUs were excluded, since they’re not as universal as processors are. A dedicated video card is still by and large considered an enthusiast part.
Fediverse is very tech inclined, like Reddit is. So there’s a higher proportion of tech Bros compared to places like Tumblr.
It’s arguably worse, since it seems to be more pervasive than crypto and NFTs were at their peak.
Crypto never really hit the mainstream, and even NFTs were still fringe. Whereas AI and AI accelerators are packed into basically every new phone and (Intel) processor.
Military would be fine, because they don’t tend to update very frequently, if at all. If it works, that’s the way it will stay, and the recent controversy wouldn’t exactly encourage them to do so.
What about its use in a company that has extremely valuable trade secrets that need to be kept that way?
Same way the LLM debacle has currently gone, where people will just throw sensitive information into it with abandon. At least one major tech company has penalised workers for doing that with ChatGPT.
If there’s a group policy to turn it off, maybe, but Microsoft might just not have one, or it’ll need to be disabled every update.
Note 9 owner here, and there’s definitely a little over the years (particularly where the status bar is), but it’s usually impossible to notice. You only pick it up with a blank colour where the difference becomes more apparent.
If memory serves, that’s not an intentional feature, but more a coincidence, since if the driver thinks the cruise control is about to crash the car, they’ll pop the brakes. Touching the brakes disengages the cruise control by design, so you end up with it shutting down before a crash happens.
It can depend on your particular part of the tech-sphere. I barely saw anything about either of those, because I wasn’t all that interested in AI things, and didn’t really follow the kind of people who would talk about it. At most, it was a quick flash in the pan before it was overshadowed by other news.
