You actually can do this (I think), if you claim the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion on taxes and earn less than like $110k/yr abroad, your adjusted gross income is 0 and with an income-based repayment plan you don’t need to pay back anything until they get discharged after like 35 years I think

That makes sense. But in that case, why doesn’t apple impose data privacy standards on cars that want to integrate CarPlay? It would still allow car manufacturers to design their own software. I’m not sure I’d trust CarPlay to safely operate all of the sensors and displays in a car. What if the speedometer freezes for example? Or if the car suddenly detects a car in front of it (that doesn’t exist) and brakes because of it? It just seems like a really bad idea to grant such levels of control of the car to CarPlay, which isn’t evaluated to the same level as standard built-in car software is (afaik).

Or, better yet, Apple should lobby for comprehensive data privacy laws in the style of GDPR, which would at least help resolve these privacy issues industry-wide. And, to their credit, it seems like they are to an extent. My opinion is that hardware car functions, such as air conditioning, windshield wipers, seat warming, etc. should be managed by the car software, and navigation and music should be managed by CarPlay. Though of course opinions may differ here.

Considering that Apple in the future is going to require even tighter integration with CarPlay (including handing over control to all screens and sensors to CarPlay), which Tesla may not like.

Prosecutors described [the next generation of CarPlay] insidiously as taking “over all of the screens, sensors, and gauges in a car, forcing users to experience driving as an iPhone-centric experience if they want to use any of the features provided by CarPlay.”

US citizens, as an exception, actually can. But one has to be in another country first. Most other countries don’t let their citizens renounce their citizenship without having another citizenship.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the country where the SIM originates. A prepaid eSIM from an EU carrier (as secondary sim) is pretty cheap though and might work if this is what they do.

Wait, that’s illegal legal

Fixed that for you

I literally just finished season 1 today. Thanks Janet

Brexit means that there will have to be a border checkpoint installed in Kent. This isn’t practical unless there is a lot of demand

AWS is very expensive. There are other compatible storage options, like Backblaze B2 and Wasabi, that are better for this use case

The northeast corridor is densely populated and fast trains require very straight tracks. In a place like China, eminent domain is easier and the State can expropriate land for the construction of a straight track, but in the US this is harder due to higher costs (lower economies of scale) and endless bureaucracy for infrastructure projects. So I suppose they just found it easier and a better option to build a lot underground.

I think that if, in good faith, the person is unable to accept more CSAM due to the fact that their hard drive is full, there isn’t an issue. The intent of the law is that, it someone knows something is CSAM, they need to report it. I don’t think the government is going to come hard on Lemmy server owners unwittingly receiving CSAM through federation (though they certainly would want them to report and take down the CSAM on their servers)

Be careful with this though. I think I remember some jurisdictions require server owners not to delete CSAM and report it instead. Verify that you aren’t obligated to keep it before deleting it

Apple just claimed an exception. It’s still up to the EU to determine whether it is actually exempt or not.

I’m not just talking about faster. Over long distances flying is often almost an order of magnitude faster, significantly cheaper, more reliable (trans-continental rail journeys often involve tricky connections between different rail carriers), and much easier to book (for example, try booking a flight between Amsterdam and Bucharest, and then a train ticket). There are some connections where rail makes sense right now, but definitely not all connections.

Airlines are also obligated to pay compensation if their flights are delayed, railway companies are too under certain circumstances but the amounts are far lower and this doesn’t cover separate tickets, which are often needed to travel on these very long railway journeys.

But I think we’re in agreement that it shouldn’t be this way. In situations where taking the train takes merely 2x as long as flying instead of 10x as long, it should definitely be the preferred option. Now the goal is to expand international railway connections, extend the railway compensation rights to make the trip safer to book, and provide a pan-European ticketing system that shows the lowest prices and allows all connections on a single ticket.

I’d like to see a direct connection Schiphol-Frankfurt. There is already a direct connection Schiphol-Paris, there should be air-rail tickets sold on this route just like there are Brussels-Schiphol

Unfortunately the train routes from the Netherlands to, say, Portugal, Spain, Italy, or eastern Europe are not well developed enough yet. The train is great in the directions of Paris, Frankfurt, Berlin, and London, but beyond that it often takes longer than flying and often requires multiple tickets

Do you have any DNS server on port 53? If so, could you check which process or application it is?

I’m not sure but this might have to do with systemd-resolved. You may want to disable it, that might fix your problem
