and god forbid letting the designated "enemy countries" voice their side of the story

But they could still do that. The only difference is, more people knew who the story was coming from.

Why do you want them to be able to obfuscate the source?

That's not what the word predatory means.

Usually that has to do with things like pricing (both initially and any future increases), handling of maintenance, problems, and of things like late payments, etc.

You're looking at it once again purely through the lens of how it affects the existing owners. For example an existing long term owner in the area would not be considered predatory based on your criteria no matter how much price gouging they engage in.

Don't know about Russia itself, but it was a big win for all the former eastern bloc satellite states that got to free themself from the influence of Russian imperialism.

At first glance, this just sounds like a "keep renters out because they're bad for the existing owners' property values" (as well as being on average younger, less wealthy, etc.) policy.

The same kind of reasoning is often used as a pretense to block construction and perpetuate the existing shortage. Pure self-interest masquerading as a good cause.

Those are called "gen alpha" these days.

Hopefully battery life will get much better with the next gen Intel CPUs (14th gen and later). Of course that means nothing for people who already have the current gen.

It's also controlled by another crypto shill, so it has that in common with Twitter too.

Another moment in A Dream of Spring involved Bran receiving a vision that The Wall was not just a physical barrier, but a mystical shield holding back the Night King's power. "This twist fits well within the universe and raises tension for the remainder of the story," Swayne remarks.

That's just a popular fan theory that has been discussed countless times on various forums.

I guess we can conclude that ChatGPT has been reading a lot of reddit.

Not really. People still love cats, and cats are as carnivorous as it gets.

once you start with a pattern they are mostly repetitive with minor changes

Can't you just turn those into a single parameterized test with the test cases described as data?

Clickbait title.

The packages were collectively downloaded 963 times before they were removed. The rogue packages include names like "noblox.js-vps," "noblox.js-ssh," and "noblox.js-secure," and they were distributed across specific version ranges

Is there any indication that anyone actually installed these, other than some bots that auto download all packages and such?

You would have to really go out of your way to get infected by stuff like this.

That being said, there are things npm could do to try to auto-detect "risky" packages (new, similar name to existing projects, few downloads, etc.) and require an additional layer of confirmation, or something like that.

But most people just buy a Chromecast in that situation.
