Letto tutto d'un fiato. Molto interessante. È un problema senza soluzioni per qualunque sistema collegato ad una rete (ma non solo, visto l'esempio del microfono passivo attivabile "da remoto")

    Se si considera il traffico, dovrebbero applicarli quando c'è traffico e alzarli quando non c'è traffico, ma probabilmente questo crea altri problemi.

    A suo tempo ho perso quasi uno stipendio perché andavo a 100 su limite di 90 alle 11 di sera su una strada extraurbana con svincoli (non con accessi diretti) dove non c'era praticamente nessuno.

    Sorry, I was not clear. I have prime and almost everything has free shipping no matter how many items you buy.

    What I mean is that, for smaller/cheapier items, they won't sell you just one, because you will immediately see you ARE paying the shipment. So they sell you "sets" of something and factor the shipping cost in, so that if you calculate how much is for each item, the shipment fee is spread out and become acceptable for you.

    Many websites offer you free shipping above some order value, but you wouldn't shop on those sites so often and you wouldn't consider to buy something small because you are paying and shown the shipping fee. Amazon doesn't want you to wait too much between orders and doesn't want you to go somewhere else for smaller items but also doesn't want to pay for your shipment.

    So in the end, we are paying for the shipment and also locking ourselves behind a monopoly just because it is convenient (at least I am, and I hate it)

    You believe it or not I keep learning new tricks and exploring new ways to solve old problems. If you factor in (no pun intended) mods like space exploration or Factorio 2.0 then it becomes more true.

    I was able to "finish" Factorio 1.0 several times but never reached end game in both space exploration and Factorio 2.0 and still enjoy to play it several months straight every so often. I still have to visit Vulcanus and Fulgora because I was playing with friends and they "sent" me on Gleba, which it felt like playing Factorio for the first time; loved it!

    Man! now I want to play it again hahahahah

    For personal/home use I always buy from key shops. Never had a problem with win10/win11 and even Office (before I switched to open source alternative)

    I thought this was already settled down long ago, at least in Europe.

    You are perfectly right, so a little research brought up the following:

    The Hebrew word chûg in Isaiah 40:22 often referred to three-dimensional celestial or vaulted forms rather than a flat circle, a usage also found in nearby cultures. Moreover, the Dead Sea Scrolls, especially the Great Isaiah Scroll (1QIsaᵃ) dating from the second century BC, include the entire chapter 40 of Isaiah, confirming the stability of this wording over more than two millennia.

    It is still a stretch, but not so big IMHO.

    I know many will not like what I am going to say but still ...

    The Bible mentioned scientific facts long before they were discovered. For example, around 3,000 years ago, Job 26:7 said that God “hangs the earth on nothing,” describing the earth suspended in space—centuries before scientists understood this. Over 2,700 years ago, Isaiah 40:22 said that God “sits above the circle of the earth,” indicating its round shape, long before it was widely accepted.

    Later, in the mid-19th century (around 1851–1852), the physicist Lord Kelvin (William Thomson) helped formulate the Second Law of Thermodynamics. As part of his theological reflections, he cited Psalm 111:2—“Great are the works of the Lord, studied by all who delight in them”—to affirm that scientific inquiry only deepens reverence for a Creator.

    There are few other similar examples like these in the Bible.
