My house? In this economy?

That's what a requirement could handle. My robot has all it's functionalities intact.

i can come up with the above attack so we can safely assume China can too - they likely have other ideas as well.

And why exactly are we to assume that China has an interest to do so? Have we arrived in full-on cold war rhetoric by now? 🙄

Also: how can the evil Xi Xingping (/s) do an assault on our infrastrugture if we don't allow the device to phone home? If I can prevent my robot-vacuum to connect to the producer's servers, why shouldn't our infrastructure be able to do so?

Why ban the devices entirely, then and not introduce a legal requirement to be able to run the devices entirely on your own network?

Those are thingamabobs/whatsits. 🤓

It describes the tankie strawman of anarchists.

And I've explained why they're not shortcuts. 🙄

You don't need to memorize the full list. Most of the tags make mnemonic sense.

What did you think the "/j" meant?

I don't really see how this is comparable.

1. The thing about tone-tags isn't being a shortcut, but rather mitigating the lack of tone transmitted via text.
2. It's also for accessibility, to help neurodivergent people not get confused. Mixing up /s and /j is decremental to that cause.
3. The "problem" goes away if enough people adopt it. /s has seen wider adoption, why not the rest of the tone-tags set?
