  I’m totally pro nuclear, but this is a terrible video.

  They don’t speak about that the problem with nuclear waste is, it will remain radioactive for millions of years. How do you tell someone one million years in the future that they shouldn’t dig a hole where we just put our waste? How can you be sure there won’t be an earthquake there in the next 1000000 years?

  For reference, our ancestors learned the control of fire about a million years ago, just to see what timescale we are speaking about.

  The point is the handling of nuclear waste is still an unsolved problem, the current solution of putting it sealed underground is a temporary solution, until we can figure out something better.

  Ars has some nice articles on the topic: arstechnica.com/…/solving-the-rock-hard-problem-o…

  Cellebrite, not celebrity. Cellebrite is a digital forensics company from Israel, they are creating controversial spy tools for law enforcement.

  Piracy is also illegal in most of the countries of the world. The new id requirement for porn is also working well in some countries as I heard. And eu cookie law and gdpr were intended to be a popup on every website.

  I’m really happy lawmakers thinking about the internet, I’m sure it will be better executed this time.

  Nice video, though

  spoiler

  It’s a bit annoying that he doesn’t fully succeed at the end. It seems he is really close to a working home made floppy

  Native English speaker noticies the every day life of most people outside the anglosphere.

  This is a very surface level video on character encodings. He speaks about winxp, but doesn’t mention utf16

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft’s Edge browser now loads sites even faster⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It now takes Microsoft’s browser less than 300 milliseconds to start rendering the first parts of a website for users,

  I use edge only if I set up computers for others, and I don’t want to install firefox for just downloading an installer or something. You have 3 unskippable consent dialogs before you can even type the url, and the no button is on a different position on the dialogs, so you can’t click it through quickly. But I’m really happy these dialogs load more quickly, thank you microsoft for your hard work on making linux a viable alternative to more and more people.
