But only if they are artificially bred. If hunted wild, it has an incredibly positive impact. They are a invasive species and are harmful to any ecosystem they were introduced to.

.LAN is not an official top level domain. So I assume this is either your home network or work network? In any case your problem has nothing to do with the .LAN doman.

Maybe you have "https everywhere" activated. If so, Firefox will always default to https unless you specify http in the URL. Again, unrelated to .LAN.

For the certificate: what do you mean "when available"? A self signed cert is a self signed cert. There is no "available" or not. You can import the certificate into the Firefox trust store so Firefox will trust that one specific cert but any other self signed cert will cause an error. That is expected and save behaviour (and unrelated to .LAN).

No, why would it? It will run code in the context of the current user which is absolutely enough to start a new process that will run in the background, download more code from a attacker server and allow remote access. The attacker will only have as much permissions as the user executing the code but that is enough to steal their files, run a keyloggers, steal their sessions for other websites etc.

They can try to escalate to the admin user, but when targeting private victims, all the data that is worth stealing is available to the user and does not require admin privs.

They actually do. To avoid infinite loops. If a URL redirects to the identical URL for more than ~5 times most browsers will refuse to load and show an error instead.

That's why sites like this will generate new URLs with the same content.

Are you actually arguing exploitation is necessary? That any system treating all people fairly will result in everybody starving?

Feel free to let others exploit you, I will keep trying for the fair system

I don't think it is correct either, but consider this:

If the family is native american/settled before the civil war, but a single person married into the family who immigrated later, then the whole branch of the family tree falls under "immigrant in living memory".

Since no arena is specified I assume it to be the only logical place.

In space! (the winner is brought back to their natural habitat)

Everything else would be unfair to at least one of the parties.

I think the ants would outlast all the animals and insects. They might freeze solid and (some) might survive the unfreezing after the figh. Or they could form a giant ball where the ones in the middle survive. And who cares if 19kg die.

On the other hand, the oak would probalby last weeks and could sprout new leaves and roots again if given proper treatment back on earth.

So ... GO TREE!

Yes but "the biggest problem" is most certainly not the lack of insurance for the daughter. Its a untrained child playing with the live of a patient.

[–] groet@feddit.org 19 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

If somemebody drills a hole into my skull I dont give a shit about their insurance.

Insurance protects them not me. This is absolutely about the doctor putting the patient into a huge unnecessary risk without the patients consent.

Can't get it anymore. It is a controlled substance now because it is so highly addictive. Many people can never quit. Just look at how many google searches there are for "how to quit vim"!

Who defines "good hands"?

How do you assure the dictator stays good (corruption, dementia, general personality shift)?

What happens if the dictator is no longer good (died, see above, the world has changed and the dictator can not adapt)?

Sure the dictator can assign ministers for topics outside of their skillset and similar and a head physician to determine when a replacement is needed due to health reasons etc, but a dictatorship is always unnacountable. What if the physician coludes with the vice-dictator to declare the dictator unfit? What if the dictator is actually unfit but accuses the physician of colusion? It has no safety checks against its rulers other than revolution and coup.

Democracy has flaws but so does dictatorship and they are not limited to "what if dictator evil"

Its not about getting money. Its about, in that case Sony geting a clear "this decision cost us money".
