Link is showing slightly outdated data as is common on Wikipedia, but the breakdown by country is what’s important.

“About 47.8 million immigrants in 2023” https://usafacts.org/answers/how-many-immigrants-are-in-the-...

You made this statement which is wrong:

> ~47 million Americans aren’t native English speakers having immigrated from a non English speaking country.

Your link says 46M total which includes native speakers. So it does not state how many non-native speakers. (not that it would matter as most would be proficient english speakers, just pointing out you're exagerating and your numbers are wrong)

By coming from different country their native language (IE what language they heard as infants) more closely resembles that country than America. Note I said 47 million and there are more than 47 million immigrants.

There are also some native born Americans to immigrants who also don’t have English as their first language and People born in China whose first language is English, but that’s ever smaller refinements on a specific estimate.

> aren’t native English speakers

Where does it state this?

Do you assume that all immigrants are non-native english speakers?

That’s at all, there are only ~380 million native English speakers.

Of that 1/3 (of the global population) a significant percentage have extremely limited skills, though the threshold is above knowing a few random words.

> Including people who speak English as a second language, estimates of the total number of Anglophones vary from 1.5 billion to 2 billion

wikipedia. You are a bit off...

As for native you have US+UK+Canada+Australia+NZ+Ireland. So more then your 380M.

I think you might not be up-to-date on the current state of 3D-printed firearms.

(The law is still silly, but for other reasons.)

> The barrel can be rifled polygonally through electrochemical machining.

It's not fully 3d printed. 3d printed parts are fragile.

So what exactly are they banning?

Why not ban the electrochemical machining instead?

I suppose, but Safari/Webkit shows that you can get what feels like 95% of the way there with static block lists which are ideal when they are sufficient.

They're faster and they're trustless. The only attack surface of a block list is that someone removes their site from the list.

adriancr · 8 months ago
you wouldnt have auto playing videos with ublock origin. 95% might be nice but theres a lot missing.

The static blocklists can be defeated easily by having ads served by the same domain.

In that case you are stuck due to apple's decisions.

Do I understand the bottom two sections correctly? If I am using ufw as a frontend, I need to switch to firewalld instead and modify the 'docker-forwarding' policy to only forward to the 'docker' zone from loopback interfaces? Would be good if the page described how to do it, esp. for users who are migrating from ufw.

More confusingly, firewalld has a different feature to address the core problem [1] but the page you linked does not mention 'StrictForwardPorts' and the page I linked does not mention the 'docker-forwarding' policy.

[1]: https://firewalld.org/2024/11/strict-forward-ports

I'm not sure about ufw/firewalld. Maybe docs aren't clear there either

I configured iptables and had no trouble blocking WAN access to docker...

In addition to that there's the default host in daemon.json plus specifying bindings to local host directly in compose / manually.
