I've been reasonably happy with Runbox. Decent features, pricing, and servers in Norway. The webmail isn't great, but I don't really use it. If you must have encryption, I think the only option is Tuta.
Cutting videos with copy can result in some weird playback issues if the cuts aren't on keyframes.
For manually cutting up videos, I use LosslessCut, which I think uses ffmpeg under the hood and is really helpful for finding and cutting on keyframes.
> rapid rewarming from open campfires or other sources of dry heat caused so much devastation.....Dry heat from ....open fires....cannot be controlled. Excessively high temperatures are usually produced, resulting in a combined burn and frostbite, a devasting injury that leads to far greater tissue loss.
Sounds like it was an overreaction to applying excessive heat to the frostbitten tissue.
That seems like a likely scenario, some engineer started an email thread that ended up in their director's inbox who said "sure why not".
In a big company getting PR/Marketing to write an announcement can be a tall order, especially for a discontinued product that did not do very well and is mostly unknown.
This looks more like bare minimum legal compliance. The 4 posted repositories are all for (L)GPL licensed projects, so they're required to make it available.

These numbers are totally wrong, and it takes about 30 seconds to look it up. It closed at 589.95 on 2024-10-11 and 172.04 on 2023-02-23. The other numbers appear to be wrong too.
I'm not upset, and I don't think your examples are analogous, since they all do have a specific meaning beyond "scam".
I think both things can be true - the term originated from Chinese and became a common term in that region for long conning people over the internet, sure. But, at the same time, the media has also latched onto its use largely for dramatic effect, even when there is no evidence the scammers are Chinese.
I don’t think that’s fair to say the person is not engaging content in a meaningful way. Have you read the article? It’s pretty clean cut aside from understanding who the perpetrators were. The ceo of a bank got conned and went to prison, and there’s emphasis on calling the con a “pig butchering scam”
Absent the etymology described in this thread, I would have had a similar confusion to theirs as to what distinguishes this scam. But now I know it's a regional term for it and I shouldn't necessarily expect a term with an obvious connection to how the scheme works.
It's called pig butchering because the scam relies on a long con where the scammer often "feeds" the mark with either real or fake small wins to entice them to provide more money to the scammer. They're "fattening" the pig.
If there's something that says you can't fill the script until X days before previous runs out because of some "regulation", then yes, it is relevant. It's just another example of short sighted JIT style expectations that only compound situations like this where the supply chain is interrupted.
Hardening is absolutely not what crowdstrike sells. They essentially sell OS monitoring and anomaly detection. OS monitoring involves minimizing the attack surface, usually by minimizing the number of services running and limiting the ability to modify the OS
