Sweden raises its terror threat to four out of five after Quran burnings

Do you really want the state to recognize some things as sacred? Where do we start and where do we stop?

Why would you not want to use 2FA?

Sleeping Beauty Trolley Problem

Except that if people are chosen randomly there is 2/3 chance that you are on the main track according to Bayes. Let's assume there are 10 people.
The probability to be chosen is 1/6 (all are chosen if 6 is rolled) + (5/6) × (1/10) (only one is chosen to go to the side track if 1-5 is rolled) = 15/60 = 1/4.
The probability that you are on the side track knowing that you have been chosen is the probability that you have been chosen knowing that the side track is selected (1/10) × the probability that the side track is selected (5/6) divided by the probability for you to be selected at all (1/4), so (1/10)×(5/6)/(1/4) = 20/60 = 1/3. So there is a 2/3 chance that you are on the main track.
If you do not flip the switch, (2/3)×10 = 20/3 people die.
If you flip the switch, 1/3 (you if on side track) + 10 × 2/3 × 9 / 10 (switch misfires 9 out of 10 times if on the main track) = 190/30 = 19/3 die. This is slightly better than not flipping the switch, you save 1/3 people more. That's an arm and a leg.

Are you registered to donate your organs? Why or why not?
Reply in thread
Same default settings in France, although your organs can only be used for transplant. Using them for teaching and practicing in medical school still needs your explicit (prior) consent.

My bad indeed, I thought Lemmy supported OAuth but I was confused with Mastodon. Hopefully someone contributes a OAuth/OIDC solution soon.

Can you drive a manual transmission?
Reply in thread
Still the case in France, although you can upgrade your "automatic-only" driving license to a regular one by following an additional 7 hour course.

Of course. I was referring to the non-self-hosted solution.

Precompiled binaries removed from serde v1.0.184
Glad to see this resolved in the best way possible. This may also lead to better package scrutiny in the future.

I'm also using it in blind mode save for the symbols. I really like it so far.

Well, if you use a password manager such as bitwarden you can store your 2FA one ctrl-v away. Even if this is a less secure setup, that still prevents someone eavesdropping on your password from reusing it.

How about we stop at obviously malicious attempts of incitement to intercultural hate and violence?
Is such an incitement not an offense in Sweden already? I know it is in France for example.
