Step 1) Rename the country to something more hip. Possibly USX.

Step 2) Have everyone sign a pledge to work twice as hard.

Step 3) Cut everything that has a budget.

Step 4) Profit?

Looks like France is enforcing chat control 2.0 a bit prematurely.

The EU council is meeting to discuss it again on October 10. A new vote is likely in mid-December. Many parties and countries have turned their coat to support the proposal.

The fight is not over.

Additionally, chat monitoring would not apply to accounts used for national security, investigations, or military purposes.

Why do they want to protect the pedophiles working for nations and militaries?

It depends on how far down the rabbithole you go.

I switched to Linux 27 years ago. My wife asks me to help her with her Windows computer every now and then, and I can't really do it for more than a few minutes before my blood pressure is in the risk zone.

I'm a unix-guru.

If I were to shave I'd get a -5 penalty on my bash magic.

If I skip showers for a month I can interface directly with any device in /dev

People sometimes do this to scout easy targets to rob.

If it didn't move until their next burglary spree, you probably haven't been home since they planted it.

Put it away and ask around if your neighbours had something out of place in their front yard.

On the other hand.. consider if your cat had walked over the keyboard before it rebooted and replaced it all with hhhhgggggggggggggggggggghgf before it auto saved and replaced the document. Would you still be an advocate for auto save?

It sucks to lose work, but this is clearly a user error.

Why does a 13-year-old have access to guns?

I do the opposite.

  • "I'm thinking to go shop for new winter boots on Saturday"

  • "I'll allow it."

We have all universally adopted Rich Communication Services, which is an open standard.

Well, except for Apple. They haven't adopted it.
