You may not have much experience with spoiled teenagers.

Voicing ones opinion without regard for the people involved, just because they’re allowed to have one, is pretty much the spoiled teenager MO. Just like not realizing this goes both ways.

How would you explain roundabouts having consistently better throughput, even when compared to traffic lights?

Security through obscurity is a very valid way to secure something. It shouldn’t be the only way of securing something, but it can be a valid additional layer.

The knock sequence is a secret, just like a password. It may not be a particularly strong secret, but is is strong enough to keep out casual attackers. You’ll still need additional security, but sshd is well equipped to provide that.

To be fair, that’s true for most US headlines these days:

• coup-leader repliblican favorite for president.
• Pro-life movement causes infant and maternal mortality to rise.
• Debt ceiling negotiations will start about 4 weeks before deadline.

Depends on where you ride your bicycle.

In the US, bicycle deaths are at 79 per billion miles src. In the Netherlands, this is 17 per billion miles. src.

Note that the Dutch take much more risk when cycling. It is normal for young kids to cycle to school and sports unsupervised. Bicycle helmets are very rare. Despite that “reckless behavior”, cycling is quite safe here. Having dedicated cycling infrastructure really helps.

I’m not confident it is a Russian op, but Russia has always fueled both sides of the political spectrum. They don’t necessarily want one side to prevail, they just want their opponents to be divided.

In the 1930s, the Netherlands kept detailed records of ethnicity for every citizen. No one thought this was unnecessary, as ethnicity wasn’t something that could ever be used against you.

That line of thought ended when the Germans took over in may 1940. Unfortunately those records still existed, and aided the most efficient genocide in human history. Without those records, many jews, sinti and Roma would’ve been able to deny their ancestry and evade being murdered.

Privacy from government and corporations will one day save lives.
