They probably gave up on their Snapdragon X efforts as Snapdragon X2 Elite was nipping at their heels and they'd have a redundant device by the time their efforts came to market.

Anyone know why news.ycombinator.com hasn't fallen foul of this legislation?

I hope any websites geoblocking UK ip addresses will leave some message about why they are blocking access, so the user sees it and hates it.

Lobsters hasn't been blocked here in the UK.

Oh cool, a .PDF I can squint at.

If you live in the UK and have recently got FTTP, this box is capable of giving you pretty much close to the ISP advertised speeds (with SQM enabled in OpenWRT). It should be good for symmetric gigabit connections, which is very cool!
Imagine running PiHole and WireGuard on your router… exceptional stuff.

Whatever you think of cryptocurrencies, the mystery is alluring and endlessly fascinating.

I’m glad to see the author note that the installer is problematic - I think I’ve only had 1 seamless install in about a dozen attempts.
I filed a bug report to add a function to copy error messages from the installer - would be really helpful to file meaningful bugs reports

Yes, unfortunately. In the past the London Mayoral and London Assembly votes were Proportional Representation — but that changed this year.
General Elections in the UK have always been FPTP.

It's a fair comment. The name isn't great.
Fortunately scuttlebutt is the protocol, which I guess is fine.

Here's the story about the novel:

Directly calls out WhatCD

Heh I know right? I think it freaked everyone out a little bit. Startled everyone as it had a whiff of LE…
blisstonia | 2 years ago | on: Oink's Pink Palace
WhatCD was pretty damn good, I'd say it rivalled Oink. Remember the bounty on that MSFT forensic tool? The copy of the unreleased JD Salinger novel? Both fulfilled...

Oh yeah!

It's heartwarming to see so many people come to the realisation that endless consumption/growth/production makes us miserable.
The issue is that we all exist under capitalism, unfortunately until it's gone, we're forced to live within it.
