It's worth noting that in Italy, police communications are encrypted (they use TETRA radios, like most police forces in Europe). I'm not saying it can't help prevent this, but when weighing the cost and benefits of encryption for police radios, we should take into account that this benefit is not absolute.
I don't think it's accurate to call the barrier between a streamer and their audience "the fourth wall". The fourth wall is a concept that exists in theater, and then more largely in fiction, where characters exist in a world where they do not know that they're characters in a story. And the fourth wall breaks when they realize that they are.
If "chat" breaks the fourth wall, then self-help books that use "you" are too, or news anchors addressing their viewers, or politicians saying "my fellow countrymen" in a broadcast address.
To be fair, the level of support for packages in nixpkgs is inconsistent. My config has a number of backported packages overlaid on top of nixpkgs where upstream is not up to date enough for me.
How should people refer to you in the third person? It's okay to use one's name as the preferred pronoun.
Many, many data brokers don't "sell" user data the way you seem to imply. If you collected user data, you're in one or more of three categories:
- You have a business model based on user data, like advertising, so your goal is to collect as much data, of as high quality as possible, to make your business more effective;
- You have a completely different core business model but it enables you to collect data and you might as well monetize it;
- You're a broker, an intermediary who's acquiring data from (2) and selling it to (1).
Brokers may be able to sell you data about you, but they typically don't care much about making sure it's you. It's not their core business, and they may have partial data that is about you, but they're not able to tell it's about you. A lot of data just doesn't have a neat name/address/phone number. Maybe it has your IP address, and companies in (1) will make that connection immediately, but brokers have little reason to care.
Data producers (2) maaayyyybe could, but they really won't want because (a) you're too small and they only negotiate data in bulk (b) they'd rather not tell the public what they collect exactly.
Data consumers (1) have zero reason to sell the data. They're in the business of augmenting that data and classifying it to know what's junk and what's reliable. If their competitors can get their hands on this precious secret sauce, they'll eat them alive. So they keep this data jealously.
There is vertical integration, especially 1+3 - that's what e.g. Google is all about, use a data-generating vertical (search, web analytics, email) to inform their data-using vertical (ads). Those are simultaneously the data hoarders with probably the most data about you, and the ones least likely to want to share that data with you. It costs them an entire free service to collect the data, and they're the only company in the world with it, there's very little reason for them to give up that advantage.
So yeah, it's unlikely you'll get anything of value. You're not relevant enough in their economics, sorry.
Thanks for that - do you have something up to date I can read about the state of the Hyprland community? I've been tempted to use it for a while but I was put off by the community vibe.
I had no idea, but yeah that's very cool!
Oxygen is found in 3 forms: nascent (O), molecular (O2, the most common) and ozone (O3). Nascent oxygen, due to its electronic configuration (i.e how many electrons it has and how they're spread out across its electronic shells) is unstable, and tends to quickly form bonds with another O, forming O2. This is also the case e.g. for hydrogen, which is usually found as H2.
You can find O in this form in some environments, in the upper atmosphere there is enough UV radiation to break up O2 into O.
The main issue is that the length of a day is not actually constant. Leap second occur (in either direction) which mean that a day is sometimes one second shorter or longer. Timezones and DST also can make a day a whole hour longer or shorter.
Seconds are a unit for physical measurement. They're always the same length. Minutes, days, weeks, months, years, etc are imprecise shortcuts that are convenient for our society but this convenience sometimes comes at the price of being bonkers units from the physics standpoint.
