I get it if the goal is to explore ideas, but any serious proposal that starts with "get rid of TCP/IP" isn't a serious proposal because that stipulation alone makes it dead on arrival. Unless you could convince major internet backbone providers to adopt a complete replacement because of fantastically convincing reasons, dropping TCP/IP simply isn't going to happen. Case in point: we've had a pretty damn good reason to migrate from IPv4 to IPv6 for decades now and we all know how well that's going.

That's fine and all, but if TCP/IP is no longer in play, how would a network like this even get started? The ISPs won't support it and there would be no way to connect nodes other than go to back to sending tones over phone lines or attempt some type of mesh network.

By the way, Internet 2.0 already exists: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet2

Is it bad programming?

With very few exceptions, yes. There should be no restrictions on characters used/length of password (within reason) if you're storing passwords correctly.

Is there any reason to be concerned?

No.

Or should I be excited for faster 5G speeds?

Yes.

No. Reasons:

• You can't make more land. The feasible land around most cities has already been built on. Either you increase urban sprawl further (not considered desirable) or you build new cities.
• NIMBYs: What about increasing density? Sure, but this requires rezoning which NIMBYs and the "save our neighborhoods" types will fight tooth and nail. And even if it does succeed, you also need utility and transportation upgrades to accommodate more people which costs money and creates more NIMBYs fighting anything that might affect them or the "views" from their property.
• Labor shortages. There have been too few people going into the trades for decades now. As the previous boomers retire there's too few people to replace them. This drives up construction costs considerably.
• Materials costs, on average, will only go up. For example, the logging industry in the US has been decimated over the past few decades resulting in higher costs for raw materials. This too increases construction costs.
• Complexity in building codes and permits is far more than it previously was. In the area I live the amount of red tape to get through in order to get a building permit can easily eat up years of time and tens of thousands of dollars just for one single family home, and that's before a single shovel hits the ground. Increase that considerably for multi-family home buildings or larger subdivision projects.

For whatever reason, it seems like many people focus on the real estate speculators, and while that's undoubtedly part of the problem, the costs and red tape of actually building new housing is often ignored. When population increases and you can't increase supply there's no where for prices to go but up. The root cause of the problem needs to first be addressed which is the need to build more housing and that's not a simple problem to solve since it involves the intersection of so many other problems. Therefore I can't say I'm optimistic that housing will go anywhere but up.

That's pretty much every social platform now. I got first suspended from reddit for "harassment" for telling someone trying to scam me out of money to "fuck off" and then permanently banned when I appealed the suspension. 13 year old reddit account, gone. Meanwhile, the scammer's account is still active and scamming people.

I now run my own personal Lemmy instance.

Sure, but what exactly does this video reveal? All I got out of it was that they have a helicopter with various cameras and radios to communicate with. I'd hardly call that "revealing state trooper surveillance capabilities, tactics, and communications." Is it really something that's not already common knowledge?

What distro are you using? I haven't seen /etc/crontab in quite a while with the advent of the /etc/cron.d directory. That said, crontab -e will handle this stuff for you.

Edit: I see, Ubuntu. I'm not too familiar with what they're doing over there. I have an /etc/cron.d dir on my Arch boxes. Some other stuff to check though: does any cron job run? If not, is the service running? You could also redirect this script's output to a file under /tmp or something to check if it's running and what might be going wrong. Beyond that, check the systemd logs for any errors.

Why do you have root in there? If you need something to run as root do sudo crontab -e and edit the root user's crontab accordingly. The user shouldn't be specified in the crontab directly.

1. It's really difficult to take such a heavily edited video with shitty music seriously.
2. What exactly does this reveal? That the police use helicopters with various cameras and radios to communicate? Uh, no shit. Anyone that's watched one of those police chase shows in the past few decades could tell you that.
3. You know what everyone hates? Traffic. Shutting down a highway has to be the absolute worst possible way to get people to join your movement. It's obnoxious and dangerous. These people deserve to be arrested regardless of what disperse orders were or were not given.
4. Shining a laser at an aircraft is extremely dangerous. Ask any pilot how it can be blinding. The person doing that 100% should be arrested.

And what exactly does this have to do with privacy anyway? Nothing here belongs in this community.
