10·25 days agoWait until you hear about the Alderney pound, Manx pound, Jersey pound, Guernsey pound, Falkland Islands pound, Gibraltar pound, Saint Helena pound, …
which ones are accepted where is... complicated:
from wikipedia:
Throughout the UK, £1 and £2 coins are legal tender for any amount, with the other coins being legal tender only for limited amounts. Bank of England notes are legal tender for any amount in England and Wales, but not in Scotland or Northern Ireland.
[…]
Bank of England, Scottish, Northern Irish, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Gibraltar, and Falkland banknotes may be offered anywhere in the UK, although there is no obligation to accept them as a means of payment, and acceptance varies. For example, merchants in England generally accept Scottish and Northern Irish notes, but some unfamiliar with them may reject them.[142] However, Scottish and Northern Irish notes both tend to be accepted in Scotland and Northern Ireland, respectively. Merchants in England generally do not accept Jersey, Guernsey, Manx, Gibraltarian, and Falkland notes but Manx notes are generally accepted in Northern Ireland.[143] Bank of England notes are generally accepted in the Falklands and Gibraltar, but for example, Scottish and Northern Irish notes are not.[144] Since all of the notes are denominated in sterling, banks will exchange them for locally issued notes at face value,[145][failed verification] though some in the UK have had trouble exchanging Falkland Islands notes.[146]

I posted the 10 points according to one source and then said
There are many varied but similar versions of these points circulating elsewhere
41·1 month agoI’m a little hesitant to use that link, wasn’t there recently something about a lot of archive websites using visitors for ddos attacks or something similar?
The archive site recently caught doing ddos attacks was archive.today (which also uses the domains .fo, .is, .li, .md, .ph, and .vn). This is a site run by a pseudonymous individual since 2012. Here is the wikipedia article about them.
The link in my comment above is to archive.org, which is a very reputable organization called The Internet Archive which has been operating since 1996 and definitely would not use its visitors’ browsers for ddos attacks. Here is the wikipedia article about them.
Know the difference :)
Also, btw, while the latter is older, larger, and vastly more credible, the former uses different archiving techniques which enable them to have archives of many things which the latter doesn’t. So, it does continue to also be a useful tool, albeit one of last resort.
I’ll compile from source

for one thing, you’re in a country where this once happened 🤦

Race is a social construct and in the eyes of your friend’s racist dad you are apparently not white (even if he might have classified you as white if he had only your appearance to go by and hadn’t seen your name).
Here are a few somewhat relevant wikipedia articles:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Hispanic_and_Latino_Americans
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Definitions_of_whiteness_in_the_United_States
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_ethnicity_in_the_United_States_census
and also, outside the US:
did an LLM get involved in your dictionary somehow? (why are four of these six definitions very minor rephrasings of each other?)
Fwiw, the American Heritage Dictionary has only one definition; the other two are in wiktionary (which has citations for both).
to all five of your questions: yes

It’s good to see someone in this thread who knows what an IPv5 address looks like:
IPv5 addresses consist of four hextets a 16bit each. For the visual representation, those grouping are used. The hextets might be written in decimal, separated by dot '.' characters, or as hexadecimal numbers, separated by colon ':'.It’s long past time to start replacing our IPv4.1 deployments!
Supersingular isogeny key exchange (SIKE) is very secure post-quantum replacement for Diffie-Hellman…
SIKE!
POV: You haven’t updated Arch for 5 minutes
Comparing the date on the tweet with the date when arch released go-2:1.26.1-1, it appears that it had been over a week since the last upgrade.
freeloading is already a verb in english, and not the one you’re looking for
