sure it depends on the design, but no standards-compliant non-PoE Ethernet design is going to light up an LED, it barely uses 1 volt.

Except neither of those things are true.
the link light is powered by the switch
No it’s not. If you don’t believe me, unplug your PC’s power cord and watch the light go out.
If the power cord is plugged in but the computer is shutdown, and the light is still on, then that means the network adapter supports WoL or OOB management and must stay on for that reason, but the network switch connected to the adapter is not physically powering any lights.
$700 for an N100 tablet? Yikes. I can’t imagine they would sell enough to stay in business.
No, something being objective or not is still someone’s opinion ultimately. And there’s still no right or wrong. There’s subjective and objective, though.
it objectively depends on the design of each individual phone
There is no right or wrong, it’s all subjective opinion.
Most people don’t use them and never did, all the people downvoting are just salty because they’re not the target audience.
there are plenty, you just don’t happen to use them
Most people don’t care, don’t use it and it saves cost and thickness. I think they are smarter than you on this.
You are not their target audience, they know there’s not enough of you for it to make a difference.

Not if you only ever used tor to access the site.

Actually they’re smarter than you… they know they don’t need to brainwash every single citizen, only the ones gullible enough to fall for it, which is the vast majority of the population.
Only even 5% of the world population has objectively good computer skills according to OECD.
Nothing is original, ever. Because everything is a remix
I thought Rust already had several different methods for interacting with C++? I’m not sure what actual roadblocks there are to developing KDE apps with it?
So blown out of proportion. Nobody is saying to stop using them. The report is more of a state of the union on software in secure systems and the talking points hinge on the most common type of vulnerability seen in large scale attacks: memory safety.
The report (which apparently barely anyone is reading) mentions C/C++ aren’t memory safe (truth) and with specific respect to space flight, alternatives such as Rust haven’t been proven yet. Both languages meet other important criteria (again specific to space flight) but it then immediately states afterwards that until other languages can be qualified, other means of ensuring memory safety are recommended such as hardware. The report makes other mentions. It’s a good read but is not a directive like media is making it.
I was not refuting that, yes drivers can control the LED since forever. The original comment was “the link light is powered by the switch”, which I’m saying is not possible. An ethernet switch (assuming it’s not PoE) cannot directly power an LED on a network adapter in your PC let alone the rest of it, that’s all I’m saying.
