Eventually you will have to dispose of old clothes as they start to get holes, tear, break seams, and just generally fall apart. I still have shirts from over 15 years ago. I buy new clothes maybe once or twice a year at most. When it becom

I have Google Fiber, and I can honestly say that gigabit speeds are largely useless, most websites you connect to and download from are going to bottleneck you at way lower speeds with their upload throttling. It's exciting when I actu

I couldn't understand any of what was said in that recording. If anything, it served to show it's absolutely not useful for me at all.

Teach it. I don't know why nobody else has suggested this. If you want to learn, really learn something. Self educate, then teach it to someone else. You'll have to really educate yourself on the subject, but once you do.. Blog po

Oh yeah, in a courtroom, laws are bent, misinterpreted, and ignored all the time. But it's at least declared clearly to the extent that it would have to be ignored in order for a copyright claim to hold up. Courtrooms and lawyers are a

I use parts of song lyrics or movie quotes for most my passwords, and I do the same with increasing a digit. I'm at digit change 17. The thing that REALLY kills me is when a password has a maximum length.

I just create an annual budget of what I'm willing to pay for "luxury" services. I also try to share services I have with friends who have other services. Parents have Netflix they share with me, and I have Amazon Prime that

I can't really comment on how they do it. I can speculate, but there's already endless comments of speculation. What I can add is that it's to do with IP or DNS monitoring from the carrier or server. My SO who uses Verizon no

I think this "metaverse" concept is going to turn into yet another VRChat clone and flop. Sansar is a great example, made by Linden Lab. The problem I see is that it fails to have a demand for it to exist. There will not be an eme

I still have my eight Velociraptors I used in a RAID5 (7 used, one backup) back in the day. It's in a box in my garage. I've meant to toss them out, because I know I will never used them, but it's just such a hard thing to br

Automobiles were very much the same. When they first started coming out, you really had to be a mechanic to own one. Autoshops/garages weren't a thing in the beginning. PCs were the same way. These days there's tons of auto s

That would kinda be the idea, using someone who has a similar looking photo to you. I'm thinking in terms of kids getting into clubs. Physical fake ID's are easy for a knowledgeable bouncer to spot, but if it's all digital da

That's what concerns me. It wouldn't be unreasonable or impossible for this to happen. The physical IDs have a ton of security features to them. And that's actually not even required. It's NFC based tap, someone will fin

I noticed it a few years ago, too. The fake reviews are glaringly obvious most times. I've seen what sellers do, they'll sell a decent product, something that's like just hairties where nobody is really going to give negative

I trained my junk mail filter to automatically mark as junk anything with "unsubscribe" at the bottom of an email. As long as this is used to make subscribing to digital garbage only, I'm fine with it.

It's likely that this is just a firmware change to the cards and nothing onboard/physically changed at all. If this is the case, then this is hilariously easily defeated by using the firmware updating tool, provided by Nvidia, to
