And, likewise, the UN stating that serious human rights violations occurred is not the same as them all saying they aren’t committing genocide

Is this excluding the bit where they made criticising their war in Ukraine punishable by up to 15 years in prison?

You mean something like the UN Human Rights Office report that concluded “China responsible for ‘serious human rights violations’ in Xinjiang province”?

I think BAC is supposed to be defined as a right-angle, so that AB²+AC²=CB²

=> AB+1²=0²

=> AB = √-1

=> AB = i

There’s only really one big building society in the UK, which is Nationwide, but they’re awesome

“Everything is politics” - Thomas Mann

Almost certainly a multiple of 2 minus one

Clearly.

You understand incorrectly. “passkey” refers to a token used for the public key authentication that is used for sign in, which needs to be stored somewhere - this can be stored in a hardware key like a YubiKey, or in your device’s credentials manager. In principle, this could be anywhere, but it needs to be somewhere secure to not be trivial to compromise (eg taking out your HDD and just copying your passkey off it)

In Windows’ case, this secure credentials store is the TPM chip, which is why you are not able to use passkeys on Windows devices that have no TPM chip (unless you use another hardware implementation).

Tldr: passkeys are data, not software, and to store the data, you need some form of hardware, which needs to be secure to not be a really bad idea.

If you’d like to do some reading before confidently correcting me further, I’d suggest reading about how passkeys work.

devices themselves can act as passkeys

I didn’t say a device needs a TPM to support passkeys - I said I believe it it needs one to be a passkey

Thank you for your passive aggressive response caused by poor reading comprehension, though

Get the knife!

…except the ones that can’t

I think it depends on whether you have a TPM chip in it

And you can keep hand waving away the fact that lower precision because of less light is not the primary cause of racial bias in facial recognition systems - it’s the fact that the datasets used for training are racially biased.

It’s saying that it uses terminology that is well-understood, specific and explicit within the field, but depends on a common understanding of the language used. So people outside the field are unable to understand it, even though they would be able to understand the actual concepts.

I think in general it’s supposed to be about decentralisation, but god knows scammers will hop straight onto anything with “point-oh” in the name

It sounds hot, though

Now, in a scenario where they are about to commit violence, or the justice system has failed, the balance may be different

Left your reading comprehension at home?

The argument I was supporting is that you don’t have carte blanche to do whatever you want to intolerant people. The argument I am making is that you have a moral obligation to rely on the law first because that IS the social contract. Not because the law would punish you for it.

Not all police are the same everywhere, but regardless, you can’t just stab people who are being racist.

But there’s an important difference between allowing intolerance, and letting the legal system be the arbiter of how it should be disallowed.

Vigilante justice not only deprives the perpetrator of their right to a fair trial and proportionate punishment (yes, being intolerant does not deprive you of your human rights) but also denies the victims their right to see the perpetrator receive justice.

YOU do not get to be the arbiter of justice, just because you think someone is a terrible person. Maybe they’re mentally ill. Maybe they have dementia. Maybe they’re also a victim of abuse.

Document the incident, protect and comfort the victim, contact the police and allow actual justice to take place.

Because in your scenario they are not a threat of imminent violence, and by being a vigilante you prevent society from enforcing consequences in the way the social contract defines - through the justice system.

Now, in a scenario where they are about to commit violence, or the justice system has failed, the balance may be different.
