I don’t normally blindly down such comments, but without credible explanation and evidence of what you mean, I made an exception here.

Seconded. One of the first foss projects I donated to :)

While I understand the sentiment, such action doesn’t match the long term goals of the bloc to unify the continent. Another solution needs to be found to ensure single bad actors cannot hold up actions which severely impact the remaining stakeholders - I have no idea how it could be done though.

Xoxo, Another useless armchair observer

Thanks for the suggestion, I started looking into LaTeX during my studies but never went through with learning it. Others have suggested Scribus, is there a reason why you might opt for LaTeX over that for this case?

DigiKam and it’s associated plugins are what I use to sort, manage and store photos. It does have facial recognition option too, but I have not used it until now.

I noticed that as part of the LaTeX description, thanks for confirming! I will take a look at scribus.

I am going to absolutely take this at face value without checking any of the text because anything that is so well written, must be true! Thanks, I learnt a heap from this.

You need an incredibly robust quality management system to even achieve certification (allowing you to place on the market) when creating systems which include life support function, or functions which potentially could kill a user. All potential changes both within and outside of the manufacturers’ control MUST be assessed and constantly monitored so such issues CANNOT arise.

No one should be able to legally place an unsafe app on the market, or legally perform changes to the app without the necessary checks and balances.

Medical device approvals in most countries are definitely not the wild west. Although they are not perfect.

No harm done

Oxygen is OnePlus’ proprietary OS.

Even the smaller competitors like Bombardier would have an interest in this, even if they are not the manufacturers of similar sized aircraft, a loss of faith in the aviation industry hurts everyone too. Plus suppliers etc.

As for the investigators (I know you meant FAA, not FCC), we have a similar issue in medical devices - you need seriously well educated experts to perform the investigations, and it is hard to find any without industry experience which wouldn’t look good on paper. The solution is to try as hard as you can to not have ex-employees audit their ex-bosses, but it isn’t always possible so we accept some overlap. It doesn’t mean these people don’t take their job seriously.

I don’t think this ends in beheadings, but there will (hopefully) be significant follow on effects. A threat to consumer confidence in flying is a risk to the entire industry, all Boeing’s competitors and the airlines will be screaming for the FAA to get the actions right here…

Thanks! I wasn’t clear on that detail!

Everyone is a bit shit here (including whoever came up with that title…). No one “won” anything here.

DoE wanted to use “emergency” measures to survey miner’s energy use, which is likely outside of the scope of the original intent of such powers (which appears to be why the judge granted a temporary restraining order?).

The Bitcoin miner’s claim the data release would cause “irreparable harm to their business…” If that’s not an admission of guilt, then I don’t know what is.

As another has commented, medical devices (and especially pacemaker systems) are well regulated, such that misuse or illegal re-selling of patient health data is not worth it for most companies.

Cybersecurity is a big topic in the industry now and life-sustaining systems are scrutinised much more closely these days. I wouldnt be worried, but you can ask the company directly if you are still concerned.

There is no option currently, and no political interest to change it. Maybe this report will change that… Let’s see

Not owning a car with smart features

Is this not standard AAA title pricing?

The Tories have literally just stolen conservative Australia’s early 2000’s immigration policies. Offshore “processing” which never actually happens, hardline “stop the boats!” which in reality is just “ban journalists talking about the boats” and “break down the smuggling gangs” which ends up just being “throw money at a foreign regime to enable our companies to exploit their resources via shitty contracts”.

If this had anything to do with bringing order to the asylum process, it would involve providing resources to said process.

Laptops are being gradually added to the list of devices within scope of this change. It only counts for any new device being sold on the market after the changes take effect.

The clause only makes sure that chargers do not limit, when connected to competitors devices. The regulation is coming from an e-waste perspective, which the EU has made it clear that it is not interested in entertaining or letting companies push them around.
